Conquering the Receipt Abyss: How to Actually Earn Those Points at Petco
Let's face it, folks. We all love spoiling our furry (or feathery, or scaly) overlords. But who doesn't love a little reward for their unwavering loyalty (and the occasional chewed slipper)? That's where the magical world of Petco Rewards comes in. Treat yourself to discounts and exclusive goodies, all for buying the things your pet needs anyway. But here's the rub: those points don't magically appear on your account. You gotta wrangle those receipts, my friend.
Fear not, fellow pet parent! This guide will have you navigating the receipt rodeo like a seasoned show pony (because let's be honest, sometimes wrangling a cat is harder than any rodeo).
The Two Receipt Realms: In-Store or Online?
In-Store Purchases: Just made a shopping spree worthy of a Kardashian? At checkout, be sure to scan your Vital Care membership card (formerly Petco Pals). This is like waving a magic wand for points! If you forget your card (because, let's be real, who remembers all the cards these days?), don't fret! You can usually add the purchase to your account later by logging in online. But remember, time is of the essence (okay, maybe not essence, but you get the point).
Online Purchases: Shopping from the comfort of your couch in your pajamas? We feel you. The good news is, points are automatically added to your account for online purchases as long as you're signed in. High five for convenience!
But wait! There's more! Did you know you can also earn points for vet visits outside of Petco? Just upload a clear picture of your receipt to the Vital Care dashboard. It's like getting points for your pet's good health – win-win!
The Great Receipt Retrieval: Unearthing Buried Treasure
Maybe you're a receipt archaeologist, constantly digging through the abyss that is your purse or backpack. Don't despair! Here are your options:
-
The Paper Trail: If you're a fan of the traditional route, simply snap a clear picture of your receipt with your phone's camera. Make sure all the details are visible, especially the date and purchase total.
-
The App Approach: The Petco app is your new best friend. It has a handy dandy "Add Receipt" feature. Just follow the prompts and upload that glorious paper (or digital) treasure.
Remember: You have 30 days to add your receipt after your purchase. Don't let those points turn to dust bunnies!
