Advantage
I called 1-800-petmeds in the past. I got free shipping and was pleased with the service/pricing.
You are definitely being taken advantage of
You're not wrong. You have every right to be mad. I would tell hubby that either his buddy comes and gets the dogs, and doesn't do this to you again, or next time your husband can stay home and take care of them. It's one thing to take care of your own, but 5 more is a lot to feed and clean up after. I think his friend is taking advantage of both of you and your husband is being wayyyy to nice about it. By the way, where I live the going rate of a kennel is about 25-30 dollars a night per dog. Maybe you should bill his buddy? Good luck.
You can only be taken advantage of if
you allow it yourself. Don’t be a rug for her or anyone else for that matter. It is your home, grow a backbone and tell her what you have said here, just so upsetting to you and the only way these visits can happen is if she stays at the hotel. You should not put yourself out for her if war is going to continue in your own home. If you cannot tell her what you have said here, then I guess Auntie will continue to visit like she has all along.

Anna Nichole is still being taken advantage of, even in
death with her supposedly beloved, yeh right, Howard Stern who now I hear has sold the rights for her funeral to Entertainment Tonight for 3+ million. Why am I not shocked by this? Hearing complaints from other news services unable to get any kind of story at all, all involved - her mother, her former boyfriend Larry and her baby daddy (supposedly) Howard others think are being paid $$$ not to talk but exclusively to ET. Heard Fox news just say they do not pay for stories, well I guess some are not that honorable.
Advantage for cats/fleas
Has anyone found a source for purchasing Advantage at a very good price? I have 7 inside cats and 4 outside. I would be willing to buy this in bulk if the price was more reasonable.
Also, has anyone used something other than Advantage with good luck.
Thank you.
People who don't have trust issues will take advantage of it.

I use Advantage 9 for my smallish kitties. I didn't think - sm
I needed flea-treatments since they are both 100% indoor-only cats living in an apartment, but every few months to a year,they'd suddenly become infested. It happened with my past cat, too. I finally figured out what was happening.
It was ALWAYS after I'd been away for a while, and the pet-sitter came to take care of them, which included grooming, etc. She's not uncleanly or anything, but she does take care of a LOT of animals all over town, because that's her livelihood. So obviously one or more of her clients had a flea problem, and it only takes one to jump from that animal, to the pet-sitter, to one of my cats to start the problem all over again.
So NOW, I apply Advantage before planning to leave them with anyone, and that seems to do the trick.
I handled it by quit allowing myself to be taken advantage of -sm
Just STOP doing it. Doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result borders on insanity! They obviously do not value what is given, so stop doing it, save yourself the money and the heartache, and move on to more positive things to spend your energy on. 
Ah, that is sorta taking advantage of a restaurant
in fact might border on theft. I don’t think quirky, would be embarassing to me to have your family heist any and everything they could when going out. Do they go out other times or just on a special occasion? Rather than run the risk of someone in management asking me to pay for their "treats," think I probably might make them a dinner at home, then you could make sure to tie down anything valuable to you.
Someone putting that many demands on a gift is taking advantage of you, and you are letting them. nm
