I came across this sale today in my local PetSmart (NJ). The item was also in stock. Might be in-store only because I don't see it reflected on their website. YMMV

Don't forget the Treat Trail coupons. I got mine back in November for like $180. This one should be a bit better.

Came here to say just that! Also another tip is, you can use the coupons if you have more than one account (phone number) on file. I use mine and my wifes account for each coupon to maximize savings. Big Grin

You download the PetSmart app and create an account. Then all you have to do is play the game, it's kind of like Candy crush. The more you play and the harder the levels get you earn 15%, 20%, and 25% coupons. the coupons can only be used in stores not online.

These filters are really, really good. I got one for 170 in 2016 and it was great before I sold it.

Probably depends on cashier. The system will not stop them from applying multiple eg the 15%, 20%, and 25% on one item. It makes sense that they would be able to apply 2 of the 25% coupons.

That said this may not be 'allowed' at the store and seems like it could get a cashier in trouble (can any petco employees please chime in?)

I bought 2 of the fx4's in december when the same sale was on using the 25% off, landed right around 180 after tax.

Yes, you can check PetSmart's website and look for the ad for your store. Mine had 25% off all Fluval canister filters (Lakewood, CA) and I used an additional 20% off coupon from the Trail Treats game in the app. Apparently I suck at candy crush and couldn't beat the hard level for 25% off in the limited time I had lol.

Ah, good idea. Thanks.

It looks like this started on 12/27. Egift cards were 15% off through 12/31. If only this had been posted sooner, that would have been a steal.

Fluval canister filters are "up to 25% off" the whole month of January, it's just their circular/ad sale price but for some reason not all of the prices on the website are reflecting the sales prices. Shouldn't have any issues using the 25% off treat trails coupon making the FX6 $202.50.
