I'm only seeing 15% coupon, and even with 10% S&S the price is much higher

I didn't know either, but the I think 40% was more general. I only saw that on my end as well.

Did the vet sell it to you? Many vets sell the brands they have exclusive deals with, such a Banfield with godawful Royal Canin that their parent holding company (Mars) owns.

Also, vets when going to school are given deep discounts on food by these multinationals which jades them or simply forms habits. And these companies have huge corporate sales forces that reinforce their PR.

Science Diet, Iams, Royal Canin and others are all garbage foods that are sold this way.

It's very easy to find very good alternatives for about the same price by reviewing sites like CatFoodDB.
Many "review" sites on the internet are compensated by the multinationals, so don't believe them if they list those I note above, or Purina, Friskies, etc.

This would be my choice: Instinct Raw Boost Grain-Free Recipe With Real Chicken For Healthy Weight
http://catfooddb.com/product/inst...thy+Weight

Or this, potentially a little cheaper: Wellness
http://catfooddb.com/product/well...ht+Chicken

For affordable weight lost (but not maintenance like the two above): PetSmart's Authority:
http://catfooddb.com/product/auth...Brown+Rice

A great article (it's not just diet): https://www.petmd.com/cat/nutriti...weight_cat

Note that scheduled wet feeding with a slow feeder is much better than free-feeding dry: https://www.amazon.com/Lorde-Cera...07PJJTL64/

Felines don't need grain as a rule; although some high quality natural grains have been shown to provide some nutrition. That does NOT include wheat and corn gluten which is found in garbage foods. Cats simply don't have the amount of digestion enzymes to metabolize large amounts of grain, unlike dogs (and us).
