That’s just for the first bucket. After that it is 5% off.
5% doesnt even cover tax. They were $35.99 to $39.99 to $46.99

Just ordered today and was $37 from petco. Set it up for every 7 weeks. Thats with free shipping and a $5 tip to the doordash driver so if I picked it up I guess it would have been $32. Not sure how much the next bucket will be but if under $40 I'm down

Sorry, why is doordash involved, if Petco has free shipping? Isn’t the sale from the company, not their local store?

Doordash does deliveries for many companies whether it be pet stores, grocery stores, cosmetic stores, electronic stores etc. So while the delivery is free there is a recommended tip for the dasher.

I guess it's kind of coming from the local store? One of those situations where you enter your zip code, pick a local location and go from there.. so yes, it's not coming from a warehouse, what they will do is take it directly off the shelf and put it aside for the dasher. Pretty positive that's how petsmart and other places do it too but idk more details than that..

Think the last deal I bought was $35 @ chewy. Unfortunately fedex dropped my boxes in the middle of my driveway while it was raining. While the boxes were a soggy messes, the salt in the bags was all good.

I called chewy just to complain about fedex, and they replaced my entire order even though I told the nice lady the salt was fine. I was told that chewy has a 100% customer satisfaction policy, and regardless if the salt was fine, they will ship out an entire new order.

16 boxes of salt for the price of 8. Think I'm good for a while. LOL
