Need VIP membership at Petco! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Bellasmom30 · 04-01-2011, 12:16 PM

I seem to find myself making weekly trips to Petco! I always think of something new I want or just want to try.

I got Bella a new toothbrush, harness, easter toy, a book about Yorkies (for me

) treats, and a pack of Denta Stix! I spent $60 and it all fit into one small bag!

This doesn't include the bows I just ordered from Darlin Beauxs a couple of days ago and of course the dress I'm in the process of purchasing for her online. It's only "in the process" because I had some trouble the other day placing my order. Probably my dh stopping payment on all my CC transactions!

Not really, but I have gone Yorkie crazy here lately!!! I won't even talk about the Yorkie "stuff" I bought at the dog show last weekend!

Needless to say, so far she hates the treats and her toothbrush.

Loves the Denta Stix and toy though!

Oh yes, and it is pretty sad that one of the ladies in Petco said "You're the lady that has a little Yorkie, right?" LOL

I spend a lot of money at the neighborhood dog stores. The small ones where everything seems pricey. And then when I get online, watch out!

I love taking Belle to Petco! We'e been there almost every week together since she finished her vaccinations.... I can't leave that store without spending more than I meant to. And she loves the attention of course!

She always gets a new toy (and so do her fur-brothers)

Bad for my bank account but fun for my pups!

Bellasmom30 · 04-01-2011, 12:31 PM

Oh you two ladies are so right in everything you said! I was talking to my friend today telling her I just got back from Petco and she said "that's what you were doing last time we talked!" lol She said I need Yorkies annonymous!

I know I am seriously considering a 12 step program to address my buying Yorkie supplies

. Buster has so many toys you can barely see him among them all. Collars, leashes, harnesses, treats, toys. I really do not go out and shop for myself any more just Buster. lol

I've been REALLY bad at spending money on Jackson lately! I go through phases. These past few weeks, I just keep seeing all these things that he so desperately "NEEDS".... like, ya know, collars, harnesses, ID tags, toys, more treats... all those things he needs, LOL. Spoiled rotten. I just bought him a new hand painted collar for $30 that should arrive in 2 weeks... it was just soo Jackson though, I had to get it. Oh and I just ordered him a new Puppia harness.

I don't even wanna know how much extra money I'd have if I just ordered his necessities, ya know, like food... and a few treats here and there, I'd probably be rich!

LMBO! It is hilarious because it is SO true! I'm glad to see that I'm not an outcast when it comes to buying all this stuff that my girl "needs"!

Oh and Buster, I could desperately use some new spring/summer clothes, but that just gets put on the back burner for now!

I will say okay, we are going to (Old Navy) or something, but will always make a pit stop first to the Petstore here lately!

It's an illness or something?!

I have been on a Yorkie spending spree lately too. Well my son used to get all the goodies. since he has married and left home Jack and Josie gets the goodies now. LOL

Doe Old Navy have kids clothes, I mean pet clothes?

My lil friend · 04-01-2011, 05:51 PM

I was just at PetCo today. Me,4furbabies and daughter to help keep them in the buggie. The back of my Mustang was full of furry kids. They all got new harnesses,I tried them on right there in the store. Now I have to put their names in them so I can remember who gets what.
Here we have several boutiques,Petsmart and PetCo. Target and Walmart sometimes have cute clothes. I have even purchased a tshirt or two at Build a Bear.

LOL - that PALS card really isn't cutting it, huh? I dropped almost $300 in there yesterday preparing for Dash's arrival. And that didn't even include a play yard!

Shelby&Seymour · 04-02-2011, 02:54 AM

Of course with THREE I could break the bank!!! I SO can relate.... In the last month I have purchased

-A Luxury Snoozer Car seat for Seeger
-2 new washable pee pads
-a BOAT load of go-fetch clearance items
-CC Shampoo package at dog show
-a bit of "bling" for me from the dog show

more than $600.. that is in addition to the regular monthly expenses (food, treats, toys & Seeger's neuter..... all the necessities)
.... OH my!!!

I think this month I will do MUCH better..... no dog shows or large purchases anticipated.

Yorkie owners LOVE to shop..... especially for their favorite furbutts!!!

Shelby&Seymour · 04-02-2011, 02:59 AM

Do ya think all this excess shopping has something to so with SPRING???

My lil friend · 04-02-2011, 03:59 AM

I tell my husband that eveyone needs a passion. Purchasing things for the furbabies is legal and nontoxic (except to the checkbook) so it could be worse. There arent any boutiques in the malls that are close to me,so I'm not shopping for me,4 daughters and 4 furbabies at the same time.
