What the what? Drs F&S changing?

Post by bazil323 »

So I stopped on Drs. Foster & Smith today to see if they had the H20 Life Aquarium Foods yet (should be within the next few weeks, or so I was told by Chris Turk, the founder of H2O Life, when I asked in an email), and I saw an alert that my fish and pond products in my cart would be moved to a new website as of Feb 2nd. The new website is FosterAndSmithAquatics.com. It also said that if you want to check out through Drs. F&S (say if you have dog/cat/ect. items also I guess) you'll have to do so before 2/2/10. Just thought ya guys might want to know. :mrcool:

Interesting. Did you sign up for the DFS rebate?

The Ebates thing or something else? I signed up for Ebates, but I forget to go through it when I order. I'm curious to see if the new website will affect it.

i googled "foster & smith coupon" which brought me to a website (RetailMeNot) from which, with a coupon code, got me a $5.00 discount on my DRs F & S order
my order was under $50.00 to begin with, so there may be no minimum
DRs F & S still has the $5.99 shipping/any size order until month end

There is no limit or minimum on the coupon codes. Sooo...you can technically order something with free shipping and use the Q and get it pretty cheap or maybe even free!

Yeah, but I wouldn't be surprised if they bring it back sometime, like with the mix & match food sales.
