This new pet store just opened up conveniently close to my house. I see a sign outside promoting a dog wash benefiting animals with cancer. Very nice. I entered and couldnt help but notice a very impressive dog wash station that covers nearly half of one entire wall of the store. Thinking to myself whether or not it would be worth the $10 price tag... no mess at home in the bathroom, laundry room, or kitchen... maybe if Fido tromped in mud or rolled around on the ground by the duck pond. Throw in benefiting animal cancer research pushes my answer to a yes. Was greeted kindly by the young lady who then offered to help me find what I was looking for. Crickets and Blue Wilderness Cat food please. This is much better that waiting awkwardly over by the bug packaging area at a certain large store in the area while the employees see me but act like they dont hoping that someone else will dish out my bugs. Crickets at Pet Valu come in an interesting little prepackaged box that you poke a hole in and actually set inside your reptiles cage. That might be convenient especially if the crickets are able to make it alive to the final buyer. Past experience has shown that these little containers of bugs tend to be 75% full of dead bugs on the store shelf. Time will tell, hopefully a success story. I found the Blue Wilderness cat food which the young lady informed they would price match to whatever price I paid normally. Pet Supplies Plus usually beats Petsmart by a buck or two but Google beats Pet Supply Plus off of at least the first five pages of pet stores in the area. So I pull up on my phone the Petsmart in store price of the Blue Wilderness Adult cat food in a tasty chicken formula 12 lb bag for $31.99. A bit lower than the $39.99 I see tagged here. Left the cat food there while I checked out the rest of the store. Broad selection considering the small space. Was hoping to see some really unique collars for cats and dogs. Nothing that would suffice for any of the five furry four legged royalty that I share my home with. Small reptile section covers a couple items that our scaly friends require. Grabbed the cat food and proceeded to checkout. Showed the young lady the $8 price difference to which she responded she was not allowed to go by an online listed price and had to call the store. She called Petsmart and asked for a price check. They gave her a price for an 11 pound variety which was not the same as the 12 pound i was purchasing. She hung up and informed me that the packages are different sizes so therefore could not match. I informed the item they quoted was the hairball remedy of the same brand which they put in an 11 pound bag to level out the prices like the do with the more expensive salmon variety. Didnt want to wait for another phone call. My eyes hurt due to a wonderful allergy to cats and Im ready to go. Hope the crickets work out... otherwise this will be an emergency only stop in the future for our household. If you are going to offer price match, do your homework and know your competition ahead of time. They update prices once a week on the same day each week.

There is an amazing selection of products in this compact store, and I love browsing here. While there is more dog stuff than cat stuff, the variety and quality of cat products offered is still great. The friendly employees are happy to answer questions, help with food or toy selections, or move heavy purchases to your car. Pet Valu has a loyalty card with a points rewards program, and additional rewards for some food purchases.

Very nice store and staff. They didnt have the bag size of dog food I was looking for, but they ordered it and I had it in two days. What I really like is the dog bath area. Very reasonably priced. They have everything you need. Ive already used it several times even thought my dog is just a little guy. Its fun to wash him there!
