We all want to save money, and when we do spend, we want to get good value for our dollar.  At Aussie Pet Mobile we understand the value of a dollar.  We have been putting money saving tips on our facebook page for the past 10 days, so now we wanted to put all 10 of them here for your convenience.  We know pets are part of the family and we are not going to stop spending on them, so here’s some ways to spend more wisely!

1. Rebook with your groomer – often you can keep getting a new customer discount if you make an appointment with your groomer within 8 weeks of your current appointment.  It’s a great way to get another discount.
2. Multi-pet discounts – another great discount is for multiple pets, so even if you only have one pet, get your neighbor or a friend or family member to team up with you and get multiple pets done at the same appointment.  We discount $10 for every pet after the first one!
3. Refer a friend – Aussie will give you a $5 discount for every referral that makes an appointment, so just letting your friends know about your great experience with Aussie will save you money!
4. Use the coupon code AUSSIE at www.playfetchgo.com.  We have set up a special 10% discount off the total order for all Aussie Pet Mobile customers and facebook fans, so make use of the code (there’s no limit) and save everytime you buy pet products like beds, toys, collars, leashes, supplements, and travel items.
5. Check out VPI pet insurance.  Did you know you can get your pet insurance at a discount by going to www.petinsurance.com/apm and signing up with your Aussie discount?  You not only save on the insurance, but it will cover most of your vet bills in the future.
6. Get a measuring cup!  Yes, it’s a simple idea, but obesity is a big factor in higher costs at the vet.  Measure your pets food everyday and keep their calories at the level to maintain a good body weight.  Don’t leave food out all the time and resist the urge to give them snacks, especially people food.  You’ll save money on vet bills and have a lower food bill too!
7. No bordetella shots required with Aussie Pet Mobile, so that’s another expense you can do without.  Since we are not a shop full of other pets, there’s no need to protect against kennel cough.
8. Buy guaranteed products at www.playfetchgo.com!  You know you can’t resists a toy for your buddy, and of course you need collars and leashes.  At PlayFetchGo you can purchase toys that are guaranteed tough, and leashes guaranteed against chewing damage.  So if you have an aggressive chewer you can relax and know you are not spending money on something that’s going to get destroyed.
9. Lower vet bills because your pet is at a lower risk for contracting disease from other animals.  Since your pet is the only one in our van for grooming, there’s less chance of illness from contact with other animals.  That saves money in the long run.
10. And lastly, it’s been proven that pets enrich our lives emotionally and physically.  Pets can lower our blood pressure and reduce our own healthcare costs.  Pets can help you live longer, healthier lives, and that’s the biggest savings of all!
