Unconventional Ways to Find Discount Dog Food in Your Neighborhood

By Luke Blaise


Because of the difficult times many people are having with the poor economy, more and more people are trying to find discount dog food.

If you truly want to find discount dog food here are five tips to help make it easier for you to save you a lot of money.

1. Close to Expired

Many pet stores and grocery stores face a constant problem of product expiration. You can use this to your advantage by offering to buy any products that are close to expiration for a steep discount.

2. Bulk Purchases

By buying your pet food in bulk you can also save a lot of money as well. If you don't have a lot of dogs you may want to go in with several neighbors as well. One way to help make this food last longer is to always keep it refrigerated so it will stay good past its expiration date.

3. Farm & Ranch Stores

Another great way to save money is to shop at farm and ranch stores. Generally these stores have larger bags of food then what is found in grocery stores and because of this you often get more food for your dollar.

4. Co-ops

People join co-ops because they can help you qualify for discounts on products that you buy every day like pet food. There might actually be several cooperatives in your area that you can join for a lowly yearly fee.

5. Promotions

Another way to save money is to match up promotions with coupons. By doing this you tend to supercharge your discount. This is because by buying discounted food on promotion and by using a coupon you can save even more money.

As you can see, discount dog food can be found in a wide variety of places if you put in the footwork. There are many more ways to save, but these are the ones that generally work the best.
