Mary Susan S,
Not sure why you feel we should send readers on an inconvenient detour to some sort of “intermediary page” that “explains all this”.
Especially when all you’re asking about is already visible.
Please note that at the very top of every one of Chewy’s pages (including their home page), the company clearly states, “20% Off when you set up your first Autoship! Learn more”.
Like every other company, Chewy has the right to set the terms and conditions of the discount they offer their customers.
In addition, in “The Final Word” at the end of every one of the more than 900+ reviews on our website, we publicly state:
“In closing, we do not accept money, gifts or samples from pet food companies in exchange for special consideration in the preparation of our reviews or ratings.
“However, we do receive a fee from Chewy.com for each purchase made as a direct result of a referral from our website. This fee is a fixed dollar amount and has nothing to do with the size of an order or the brand selected for purchase.”
Not sure what else we could do to make these terms any clearer. Or what else we could do to avoid annoying readers with display advertising to cover the costs of making our website completely free to everyone who stops by for help.
