When does Dollar General publish its weekly ad?
Dollar General publishes a new weekly ad every Thursday. Their DG Digital Coupons app contains additional exclusive offers that are not in the printed circular.
Does PetSmart match Chewy prices?
PetSmart does not officially price-match Chewy, but their Autoship subscription delivers competitive pricing on prescription foods and medications, and Treats rewards points accumulate across all purchases.
