Can we look at all the animals.....please mummy

Advantages: Everything for your pet under one roof
Disadvantages: Can be expensive if you don't buy in bulk.

...a lot of time in Pets at Home. Some aspects of the shop have impressed me, while others have upset me a little, perhaps I should go into a little more detail….

---The Shop Itself---

Pets At Home is a supermarket for pets, with (almost) everything you need to keep your pets housed, well-fed and entertained. Along with pet supplies they sell a number small animals, birds and fish. The store prides itself on being pet-friendly ...
...I'm looking for. One thing Pets At Home does seem to lack is the "pet shop smell", I love the smell of the smaller independent pet shop and the aroma in Pets at Home just doesn't match up.

There seem to be just about the right number of staff working in the store and I can't say I've ever had any difficulty finding some to help me make my decisions. The staff are also friendly and seem to have a reasonable amount of knowledge ... more

Pets are Family - assuming they don't all die...

Advantages: Excellent selection of products, superb range of food, toys and general accessories, most staff seem to know what they're talking about
Disadvantages: Fish selection is in poor condition generally. Not willing to take any responsibility for this.

...I used to absolutely love Pets at Home. Having been an animal lover all my life I was delighted when Pets at Home first landed here in the UK back in 1991 (after the demise of the PetsMart stores throughout the country). The store practically has everything any pet owner could ever need. They stock all necessary (and luxury) items for out canine, feline, feathered, furry and fishy friends. Many stores also used to stock items for our reptilian friends ...
...what you want in a Pets at Home store. Many prices are competitive and some deals you can get are very good indeed, especially some of their "all in one" type packages (otherwise widely referred to as "Starter Kits" where you get the cage/tank/etc. with everything you need to start up with a certain animal). This is the good side to Pets at Home. However, with all good things come some bad points.... First however, let me just explain why I've ...

Pampering Supermarket for pets that we love

Advantages: Everything for your Pets needs
Disadvantages: none

...regular monthly visit to our pets at home superstore to buy all the pets there monthly food, accessories, grooming, medication and treats. The store itself that I go to visit is in Newport. It is located in Maesglas Retail Park, and has great parking facilities for you to park the car close to the store for convenience, especially when you are buying in bulk as we do. I must give this store its own immediate credit, as it is always clean and well ...
...does have everything for you pets needs or you just want to pamper them a bit. My Opinion:- ~~~~~~~~~~~ I find it that this store is fantastic as it has everything I need, especially with all the pets we have. Today alone, we had to sort them all out and spent over £40 on them, but if I had gone to a shop on the High Street this would have cost me well in excess of £55, which is a fantastic saving. My pets:~ ~~~~~~~~ Currently we have a large ...

Pudsey the Collie and James the Cat go shopping!

Advantages: Pet friendly Store
Disadvantages: Just a tad more than the supermarket

...you about our favourite store Pets at home. Pudsey will take you through the layout and the dog section and I will take you through the cat sections and we will fight for the rest, woof woof, miaow.... The Store and its layout ------------------------ In general these stores are normally just placed outside of town and on the main you have to drive there. This can be a bit time consuming if you have only one pet to buy for but mum has to buy for ...
...I am intrigued by the pets corner they have which is actually not in a corner but more like in the middle of the store. There are white fluffy things called rabbits and hamsters and guinea pigs all housed here. Mum lets me go and have a sniff but when I put me paws up on the fence that surrounds their home, she draws the line at that and pulls me back. All I wanted to do with them is make friends, oh well back to my ball. Again by asking staff you ...

Its OK for the basics but not much else

Advantages: Good for stocking basics
Disadvantages: i do't trust the health of the livestock

...to go was the local Pets at Home. And seeing as I don’t have a car this was the easiest option. I’d done my research before and knew more or less exactly what I wanted, a small, tank, filter, gravel etc and when I walked in I have to say I was quite impressed with the number of different products they had available, which only meant that I spent a good 20 minutes trying to decide what colour gravel to have. And of course they don’t just stock fish ...
...basics (and treats) for cats, dogs, hamsters, rabbits and so on and so forth. Not only that but many of the smaller animals (hamsters, rabbits and fish) can actually be purchased from the store. I had been to this store on a couple of occasions prior to deciding to get my tank, but to be honest I hadn’t really paid it much attention. I’d gone with my friend who wanted some fish and had just spent my time looking at all the different species they ...

Visit even if you have no pets!

Advantages: many branches; all that you could want for a wide variety of pets
Disadvantages: not cheap

Pets at Home. I do love this store-Everything that you need from buying a pet, to making sure that you have all that you need to care for it. There are branches all over the country, and it's a very professional set-up, in my opinion. I still like the old family run pet shops that SMELL like pet shops, but these are ultra clean and large and roomy-plenty of space to wander round in. The stores are pet friendly and you can take your dog (or other ...
...pet can have one. The pets don't disagree! Also, on the till, you can contribute to charities, either in the form of raffle tickets, or you can buy little badges from animal/bird charities. These are really lovely little badges and the latest one I bought was a little owl- previously I'd bought a kingfisher, a blue tit and a woodpecker! There are machines (someone reminded me) in the stores that allow you to get a name tag made for your pet. Very ...

Home Bargains! Home James, with the bargains!

Advantages: Bargains for the home. Lots of them
Disadvantages: None, really

Home Bargains. Very rarely has a name for a shop proved so apposite! It is filled with bargains for the home. So, go there and buy them. That's the review then! Oh. You want more? Very well, I will continue! I first came across my nearest branch of Home Bargains whilst visiting Pets at Home for a large sack of wood-based cat litter and some cockatiel food. (Actually, Pets at Home... isn't that a rather strange name for a shop? I mean, where else would you have pets, other than at home? But I digress. "Home Bargains?" I said to my wife. "I didn't know a new shop had opened. Let's pop in and see what they have." The shop is well laid out, bright and clean. And it is filled with large amounts of bargains for the home. Stationery, books, gardening 'stuff' (I am NOT the family gardener, as you will probably gather fromm that ...

Review of Home Bargains (Shop)

grab a bargain

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: gets busy

Home Bargains is a great bargain shop! The name of the shop says it all - Bargains for your home! They have a wide variety of things including cleaning supplies, pet supplies, cards, gifts, food, stationary, household and garden items, plants and the list goes on!! They have very good prices on everything across the store. They also have good things for the garden during the summer and xmas decorations in the winter. The store near me sometimes seems a bit messy, people have been getting things of the shelves and knocking things over and its not been put back for example, but other than that theres nothing negative to say about the shop. They do get quite busy so you sometimes have to que for a little while. Also the offers change all the time so you may go in one week and see someting you like, but the next week they wont have it they ...

Review of Home Bargains (Shop)

Fantastic Store

Advantages: Stores in convenient locations
Disadvantages: none

of blue Jeans costing a mear £3 which by anyones standards is cheap, but they are as basic as basic gets. Other items in this range include plain white tee-shirts, socks, etc. As well as having all this located in thier stores, Tesco has branched out into the finance world, now offering insurance for your home, car, pet or travel, which in my experience has never been the cheapest on the market if your prepared to shop around. They also offer breakdown cobver for your car in association with Green Flag cover, this is very good value, recently I had the Tesco Finest option giving every option possible for a small price of £65, bargin. One of the biggest benefits of shopping with Tesco is the Clubcard, this is a loyalty scheme which rewards people for buying from Tesco. It operates by giving the customer 1 clubcard point for every pound spent ...
