Pet's Discount

I’ve been going to Pet’s Discount Warehouse for a few years now. They’ve usually got the best prices on pet foods and other pet products. The people working there are also pretty nice. They also run a lot of special promotions monthly giving away some extra goodies and treats when you buy a bag of pet food. more

Pet’s Discount is your fairly typical pet store. They carry a variety of live animals as well as the supplies necessary to care for them. Unfortunately, the store on Kapiolani is relatively small in size, so you’re not as likely to find an obscure breed or brand on display. The parking lot is also very tiny, with a few spaces in front of the store and a shared lot in the rear. To it’s credit, Pet’s Discount advertises fairly often in the local newspapers (check the inserts) and sometimes via direct mail. Their coupons have also appeared in those fundraiser books sold by nonprofits. The coupons typically are a percentage off a single item (not your total purchase), so clip those coupons and use them strategically for those high dollar items. more

I'm assuming that when they named this store, they just arbitrarily put "discount" in the name because there really isn't anything discount about it. Sure they have the occasional $5 off coupon but other than that, their prices and sales are no different than any other pet store. I still shop there however just because it is a pet store and regardless of the price, I have animals to support. Nothing really special about their offering to differentiate themselves from any other pet store but they do offer, in conjunction with their sister store Pet's Central a wide selection of pure breed dogs from Australia. While i'm not in the market to pay upwards of $1k for a dog, I do appreciate that the dogs they offer--even if the breed standard dictates so--do not have cropped tails and/or ears. Though I suspect it has more to do w/Australian law than it does w/their practice. more
