Mixed plans and keeping costs down
- Last updated on February 21, 2025 at 3:08 PM
We have some great options for helping to keep costs down, while still giving your dog the benefits of a Butternut diet.
Lots of our customers have found mixed plans to be an ideal compromise here. By feeding a smaller amount of Butternut topped up with other food at home, your plan will work out a bit cheaper - but your dog can still enjoy our tasty meals. For example, you could feed Butternut for breakfast and another food at dinnertime, or mix different foods in the bowl.
Another option is to have bigger deliveries less frequently. The more pouches you buy the more cost-effective the plan is. For example, our 400g plan delivered every 28 days costs £2.70 per day, whereas if you were to have deliveries every 42 days the daily price would be £2.54.
Similarly, if your dog needs 300g per day it works out cheaper to receive 14 x 600g pouches every 28 days than 28 x 300g pouches every 28 days. You would just need to feed half a pouch per day and pop the rest in the fridge. Our meals are safe in the fridge for up to two days once opened, and we’d recommend keeping them in Tupperware for freshness.
The recipes which come with a surcharge are Wham Bam Lamb, You've Got Game, Gobble Gobble Turkey and Beef It Up. If you have these in your dog's recipe selection but you're looking to cut down costs and your pup isn't fussy, you can choose out of our other 7 recipes that don't have any surcharges.
The subscription is super flexible, so you can skip or delay boxes as often as you need to. You can also order one-off boxes if your subscription is stopped, without reactivating the account.
