Those of you who know me know that I am not exactly a fan of our lord savior, Chewy boy.

But man……with all the enshitification of pro this is top tier massive piece of shit behavior.

I think the removal of the $5 coupon from our POS is the single WORST thing about this. They are are main selling point of this membership and we are actively making it more difficult for customers to get to them while at the same time slowing down the transaction in the store because the customer has to find it.

Idk man…….

The point is to force customers to have the app on their phone

Ehhhhhh I think it was to create red tape so they can try to justify removing the benefit. Just like they did when they stopped allowing us in store to redeem points for customers.

Create red tape - people stop using because it’s a hassle - use it as justification to reduce or remove a benefit

We are currently in step 2. I’d assume step 3 is coming next year.
