Malamum Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 For things like flea/tick and worming treatments I've always used the stickers in the pack to mark my calander a few months in advance as a reminder of the due dates. I've just bought a new lot of Interceptor and noticed that there are no stickers in any of the packs - they have had them in the past. As anyone else noticed this? Do you think they've made the decision to stop providing the stickers or have I just got a few dogy packs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly_Louise Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Not sure, I'll have to check when I go home. Have you started using the new 'chews' instead of the tablets... maybe the new packs don't have them? Not sure, I don't generally use them so I haven't noticed. I use email and mobile phone reminders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karelea Aussies Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yep my last pack did not have stickers but as Tilly and Cleo had different products I just used the stickers out of Cleo's pack for both of them. I thought it was odd at the time, but just assumed my pack missed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverHaze Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Nope - my latest lot - which were the new chews, didn't have any stickers. I was kinda peeved at that. I have a few left over from old packets, but not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ams Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I don't use Interceptor but I do go through a LOT of Advantix. I am more than happy to post the stickers to anyone who may need them. I do rescue so go through around 8 - 10 tubes a fortnight and I don't use the stickers at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glacius Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I didn't get any with my last lot either, tho i never really used them....I just set a reminder in my phones calendar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malamum Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yeah it's the new chews. It's not the end of the world that they have stopped doing them as I can just write on the calendar, but I've obviously haven't totally got over the school girl thing of liking stickers.

Vehs Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I just switched from heartguard to interceptor - D had his last heartguard this arvo and I looked in the pack - no stickers!! I used to have a heartguard magnet clock that would beep after 28 days.... usually at 10pm at night even though he'd get his chew (and the reset) in the afternoons.... might try and find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D & D Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yeah it's the new chews.It's not the end of the world that they have stopped doing them as I can just write on the calendar, but I've obviously haven't totally got over the school girl thing of liking stickers. Hehehe, I got the new chews and was miffed at no stickers, too. I had to grow up a little and actually write on my calendar BTW, does anyone else find the packaging huge and hard to open?

benny123 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 No stickers in mine either. However, it does mention using the 'included stickers' on the info leaflet inside the box under the heading dosage reminders. It's a pain without them - I now use it on the 1st of every month.

I'm not sure why there are no stickers I will ask the rep next time I see her. The packaging is huge and is going to be refined. The foil is hard to open because they had to make it child proof due to the law. Don't worry I was just as frustrated with my first few packs until I complained to the rep....more embarrassing when you are complaining straight to the company then you get that answer.

Nope no stickers here either And that packaging does my head in! I've been using a knife to slit the foil because it's impossible to pop them out like the old ones. Dog seems to like them though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly_Louise Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Totally agree the packaging is massive and awkward... it always feels like half the contents must be missing from the box! I'm happy to struggle with the foil if it's for child proofing purposes... pity it's adult proof too though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malamum Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yes, I've also noticed the packaging seems extra bulky and the damn foil gets me every time. It looks like you should be able to pop them out or tear the foil but I always have to go hunting for the scissors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormie Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) We were told by our rep, that the packaging was made that size to keep it seen on the shelves, to match other products like Advantage, Revolution etc. It's a joke really. I would say 80% of our clients have complained not only about the packet sizing but also about the change to the chew, as most of them find their dogs won't eat either, and the tablets were much easier to put down their throats. eta I notice on the boxes they mention the email/sms reminder service - I wonder if not including stickers is a push to try get people to use that service?

New Age Outlaw Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I use Sentinel, and I confess I don't even know if there were stickers in the packets...I never used them. I just give them on the 1st of each month, so when the month starts I know it's time to give them. Haven't tried the new chews yet (still got a couple of months worth of the old tablet ones left), but my dogs love the tablets...they chew them up like treats. I sure hope they like the new chews just as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
