Pets.com is cashing in their chips. They are laying off over 200 hundred people and will be selling the assests too.

Too bad. I got some great $15 off $30 coupons from them.

Is that the site that used the sock character in its ads?

If so that's too bad...those were somewhat amusing http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif

yup...the adds were kinda cool. Petopia.com went tits up too. Just goes to show...you can't make a new niche or bulldoze your way into one...you have to find one.

I will miss them dearly. I bought a lot of pet food for a local homeless animal charity because their deals were so good. http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/frown.gif http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/frown.gif http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/frown.gif http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/frown.gif
I will miss them the same way I miss Reel.

A friend of mine helped close up more.com and ended up with 1 million condoms.

No more cheap Chipmonk food, damn!!! I think she is hibernating now or close to it. I did see her on Sunday but not since.

Looks like those sock puppets are gonna be on CLEARENCE! Hurray!

Well no surprise here, they were selling at retail prices on line!! They were suckee!

Thatpetplace.com beats their prices by a country mile, shipping is a litte on the slow side and no I don't work there.

They shouldn't have sued Conan and Triumph the Insult Comic dog http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/smile.gif
