1 year agoYeah we’ve been dealing with the same. My only option has been to switch dog chow over to a Purina blend at Sam’s. It’s literally 29 USD as opposed to PetsMart at over 80.
Yeah, this really bothers me. Because in reality, that company that you give money to at checkout is just going to bundle that all up and it’s a donation in their name, used as a tax write-off. You as the shopper might feel nice and warm and fuzzy, but you’re just giving a multimillion or billion dollar company a tax break. Just donate as yourself. If you want to help XYZ cause, do it on your own. My two cents.
