just a bit off topic but Amazon related, don't grow complacent about checking pricing. Lately I have noticed some of the Amazon pricing seemed a bit high and found I can do better at other online retailers often by a huge margin. Recent example with a new puppy in the house I had to purchase two 30 lb sacks of Iams large breed puppy food. Price was $50.29 a bag for Amazon Prime total $100.58 + tax, got the same product from Wallmart with free delivery (on any purchase over $50 ) for $28.96 per bag or $57.92 + tax. Now that comes to a staggering $42.66 savings on one purchase, I think Amazon is relying on us to grow trusting and complacent and no longer do price comparisons and taking advantage of our trusting nature. Not sure if I will renew my prime this time around giving what they are doing with loyal customers. Oh and by the way Wallmart free delivery was scheduled to take five days but actually arrived in two days just like my Amazon prime orders usually do.
I should also add that this is not the first time I have noticed this pricing discrepancy, over the past several months I have seen it on other items as well, albeit not usually as large a difference as on this particular item.
