How much do you spent in an average trip to Petsmart/Petco?

Just wondering as my trip today set me back another $52.00. Those kids get expensive.

Though i might get $15 of that back as they seem to have zero interest in the crinkly bag toy I bought them. I also got the Zoom Groom, a new feather toy since they loved the other one so much they destroyed it, a couple more toys, some litter, and some food.

The average is $45. I don't think I've spend more than $60, though. And the larger spendings were originally supposed to be $20 or so, for one thing (like cat food) but I got sidetracked and added toys and treats.

The typical weekly visit to PetsMart usually comes to $45-$60, though it can go above $100 if something like a cat bed or water fountain is included. Big items like a cat hutch will put that into the $200 range. The most we ever spent was just under $400, that included a $320 hutch.

On average I spend about $150.00 every time I walk in to stupid Petsmart!! Usually about $60 on food, $20 on litter, then of course dog bones, dog toys, cat toys, cat mice, catnip, new beds, etc.... =( That is why I am always broke. For my birthday I just bought the little spoiled brats a new 8ft. tall Cat Tower to add to the three they already have.....

I only get litter from pet stores. We don't have any GOOD pet stores around here, so I order online. I use the "bottomless bowl" thing at petco.com and get his litter sent to me once a week. Everything else I get him comes from other websites, like catsplay.com and ebay.

It's a shame I can't just go get things and not having to pay shipping, but on the other hand there are many, many more things to choose from online!

The average is $35 - even when I vow to be "good"...but I always get unplanned stuff to spoil the cat.

Since I work there, it is a good thing i get a discount, haha. i spend so much money there that i joke around and say they may as well keep the money they pay me. my stinkers are sooo spoiled.

It varies ... just canned 20 bucks ... need some stuff 40 bucks ... need alot of stuff about 75 ... since that isnt the only place I shop it adds up

With litter, wet food & dry...plus toys & other odds & ends, I spend about $50 a month.
Dexter & Sadie are worth every penny.

$68 about once every 3 weeks.

it veries..usually around 100 or more a month

I normally don't go to PetsMart or Petco. I like to support the independent businesses that make my neighborhood unique, so I shop at one of the 5 or 6 "pet boutiques" in my area. Dry food sets me back around 20 a month since neither of my little darlings will eat wet, litter is 30 every 2 months (I get the all mighty giant bag) and then, of course, there are toys. Lots of toys.

I avoid PETsMART unless I'm really broke, but I spend about $250/month on cat food and litter.

I spend about $100-$120 a week for cat/dog food and litter. Toys or treats are on top of that, which is why I've learned to make their toys and beds. I usually buy treats like greenies and rawhide chews in bulk thru discount online sources.

I don't have pets stores like that around here but in the average pet store I spend about or close to 50$/month

I totally am into this in all business - but the two I tried near me had a dismal selection - no pouches or cans, and only 2 kinds of dry. The toys and accessories were good though, but I would still have to make another trip to a different store if I went there. They also tend to close on a whim - w/o explanation, so I have no idea if they will be open if I arrive during their posted hours. Harrumph. The other place I tried had a v. poor selection in everything, and the shelves and cans/bags of food were very dirty/dusty. No thanks.

Normally about 35.00 - 45.00 depending on what i'm needing and if i buy something that wasnt on the list!

I recently found a smaller-chain store near me that sells the good foods, so I've been only there for the past few months. They have a few cat toys and harnesses, as well as some dog toys and harnesses, but if I need something that the store doesn't have, then I'd go to Petsmart. I love this new store anyways, though, and I want to support it as much as I can. They totally deserve it!

I normally get my cat supplies at a local pet shop (Pet Valu), but I don't spend nearly as much as everyone seems to spend. I spend about $28 a month for 2 cats. Then again, I recently did buy a window sill perch for my cats from petsmart.com so they are getting spoiled!!!

Way too Much! The first time I walked in with just the thought of getting my 2 kittens I spent 150 bucks....but not it averages about 40.
