Reduce the Costs of Pet Ownership With Coupons & More
Being a pet owner can be expensive. The cost of pet food, visits to the veterinarian, grooming and other pet supplies can quickly add up. By doing a little planning and using the tips below, you can significantly reduce the cost of owning a pet.
If you are looking for a new pet, the best thing you can do to save money is adopt. Some people pay hundreds of dollars for a new pet, when in reality there are so many homeless pets you can take home for free or close to free from a local animal shelter. Some animal shelters will even provide you with free pet supplies and free samples.
Buying used pet supplies can also boost your pet savings. When looking for more expensive pet supplies such as a pet carrier, crate, beds etc., check out garage sales, classifieds in the newspaper, craigslist and even eBay. Sometimes you can find incredible deals from people who are moving or just cleaning out their garage.
Another way to save money on pet supplies is by finding coupons. Besides looking though CoolSavings' printable coupons, the Sunday paper is also a great source for pet coupons. You may not always find coupons for the brand you are looking for though. Luckily, our CoolSavings Community has a new Coupon Exchange where you can exchange the coupons you don't want for the coupons you need. You can also find pet coupons and other pet savings by signing up for various newsletters from your favorite pet stores and pet supply manufacturers. For example, signing up for the Iams newsletter will give you access to printable coupons, expert pet care advice and even pet food coupons via mail.
Shopping online for pet supplies and pet medications can also save you money because you can take advantage of numerous online coupons and discount codes. CoolSavings actually has a whole section dedicated to pet supplies coupons full of discount codes good for free shipping on orders and other special discounts. CoolSavings also has a wonderful Price Comparison feature where you can find the best quality pet products at the best price.
Other ways to reduce the cost of owning a pet include buying pet food in bulk, grooming your pet on your own, asking your vet for free samples and buying pet toys and snacks at the dollar store. There are probably a bunch of other things you can do to boost your pet savings. If you have any tips or advice, please share with us!
