Pointless Vouchers - Pets at home

United Kingdom
November 30, 2015 12:27pm CST
I have a pets at home VIP card, I don't actually really know why I have it as I hardly ever shop there but I am a collector of loyalty cards. Anyway they periodically send me vouchers which is nice, normally they are money off certain products, not very often ones I will buy but I can't blame them for that as I don't shop there enough for them to get a good idea of my spending habits. But what I can't forgive them for is sending me a whole load of vouchers for dog products when they know I have two cats. When you sign up you tell them what pets you have. It is just a waste of paper and postage and trees, and carbon emissions to send someone vouchers that are useless to them and actually put me off going there as it shows they don't read the stuff they make you fill in. Anyway sorry a bit of a rant there, have you ever received useless vouchers from a loyalty scheme ? or maybe ones from tesco or sainsburys that make you think someone has been using your card I know I've been confused by the vouchers I've had from them in the past but I can't remember any particular examples at the moment x The picture is of my cats just to prove they are definitely not dogs x

I wish things were that relaxed here but they wouldn't accept them. They did send me one cat one so at least that is something. I will find someone to give the dog ones to x

@birjudanak I would like to have a dog but our garden is not secure so we wouldn't be able to let it out and that wouldn't be fair on a dog x

@shellyjaneo we too are cat people but we do also like dogs which our neighbors have. Your two cats are adorable. What are their names? Our cat Sid sends them sincere meows. He has a nice line of online cat friends. On wrordpress there is a wonderful blog about cats and very often they offer many different interesting cat products. Here is the link to them
Welcome to the world of cats!

They look like lovely cats. I love black and white cats. We always had them on the farm - along with a variety of other colours. :)

@shellyjaneo We let my pet sheep out from his paddocks for a bit of a change and he came up to the house and nipped off the tops of my portulacca seedlings. He is now back in his own paddock!!
