ooohhh...I guess 7 is enough gloves...Not like I need them up to my arm pits all the time but great if you are spraying in the garden to protect the arm from chemical.
I already have over a dozen Mapa nitrile stocked away...I used to clean apts so gloves were important...actually those armpit ones would be great for reaching into oven...LOL...Don't clean my oven caustically anymore as I have birds! Heck a little oil in the oven is just seasoniing@!!! :rofl:

Tempted by the Senior Nuriberries..no discount but has the herbs but willPenny eat it????

I would like support our great AA Vendors but I do have to watch my budget...
I'll check it but generally even with 20 % off the shipping kills it as FS is free... So I'm doubting I can get a bag at $8.99 shipped free...just economics & I do need to budget. For $19 I can get the nutriberries & 4 pair of gloves shipped free (it would be$23 with shipping for 1 bag of NB if I buy at DFS its like getting 5 pairs gloves for free if I had to pay the $14 shipping for the $9 bag of NB...Maybe if I had a larger order it would spread the shipping out but I don;t need much now as I've already soent alot...

Postal service can send in a padded envelope cost is $7.25 and 4 packs of nutriberries would fit just as an example. ;)

Of course now it works. I ended up ordering a few more things today. I got the space station toy that Slade loves, a stainless steel treat cage that's 50% off and the three strand kabob for Diggle since he smashed the single strand one I got in the great purge sale of 2018.

I am quite sure thus is part of the Petco purchase of DFS.

When I was at the large Petco here getting fish things, they were remodeling. They said they were redoing the fish area (it was gone) and all stock was moved around. I asked, that's what they said but also said they were bringing in a Vet area. Well, seems to be since the growth in our town and county is getting 63 new residents a day (The county) and it's a trendy, yuppie and young town.

Petco opens store that offers free veterinary care for a monthly fee - Business Insider

Well my Mobile Vet also showed me the article too. This is probably a reason behind the sale and movement. CRAZY! but a very cool concept.

$9 per month with free Vet care? I'm sure the visit is, but you'll pay for all the extra stuff, tests etc.

Sounds like they're trying to compete with PetSmart. They've had Banfield for years and have what they call a Wellness Plan and it costs $15 a month. If they're similar plans you're right it's pretty much just the vet visit covered and I think certain routine tests. Anything major you still have to pay out of pocket.

I have not seen it in my local Petsmart, but I like the idea of having vets be more accessible to the general population. Overall, my annual check-up for my cat costs much less than $15 per month if I multiple that by 12 months, but I think people find $15 a month more palatable if they base their budget on a month-to-month/paycheck-to-paycheck basis. Although personally I prefer having a traditional vet where I can build a relationship with them, anything that encourages ppl to learn more about responsible pet care is a plus in my book and this may be the first stepping stone for ppl who pick up their new pet in a cardboard box. Too bad its at the cost of downsizing other products.

As a side note, a couple of years ago, my cousin was approached by Facebook about becoming the on-site vet for their headquarter campus. Ultimately, she declined as she has her own practice in LA, but they were offering good money and said it was a perk they were thinking of adding for their employees and potential employees who had/wanted pets.

Well, is it just me but I can't open any product on the Drs...it shows the product but when you click on it says "Were sorry page unavailable!!! Checked about 8 items & can't open anything!!!

So are they blocking us???

I had 4 nitrile gloves & senior nutriberries in the cart but I opted out as I have 7 long nitrile pairs & donlt use them as much as regular gloves but they were great watering the garden & keeping my arms from getting burned.

Problem is gloves do have a shelf life or so they say maybe 3 years. Bet its more but they want to be on the safe side if you are dipping your hands in acid....

They haven't updated the webpages so lots of items are out of stock even though you can still see the item. They will probably update the web pages at some point.

Tried the gloves on. They were very comfortable.

Felt like a mad scientist wearing those gloves.

That's an interesting looking crock.
