What are Buyer Rewards?

The Pampered Perks Buyer Rewards Program is our way to reward you for making purchases with us. We value your business and for every dollar you spend, you'll earn points redeemable on future purchases at our on-line store Pampered Paw Gifts. The more you buy, the more points you earn for every dollar you spend. The only thing you need to do is make sure you set up an account the first time you check out.

Here's how it works. Starting with your first order, you will be placed at one of the following program levels based on the amount you spend with us. The more you spend, the greater the discount you receive. All products on either of our stores qualify toward Rewards Points.

Level	Cumulative Dollars Spent (Low Range- Hi Range)	Points Required to =$1.00	Points Earned per Dollar
Bronze Bones	$1.00-$150.99	1,000	20
Silver Whiskers	$151.00-$500.99	1,000	50
Golden Paws	$501.00-$1,500.99	1,000	100
Platinum Pooches	$1,500.00-$9,999,999,999.00	1,000	150

As an example, if you place your first order with us today for $150, you will earn 3,000 points that will be redeemable on your next order with us. 3,000 points is worth a discount of $3. If you then place another order with us for $100, you will qualify for the Silver Whiskers Level of Rewards Points on that order and earn 5,000 more points. You would then have a total of 8,000 points worth $8 on any future order. You can redeem points immediately or "bank" them for future purchases. Once you reach $1,500 worth of purchases in a 12 month period, you will achieve the Platinum Pooches level and earn 150 points per dollar you spend with us.

What makes your store better than the rest?
We think every doggie and kitty cat should get a gift, so we keep our prices pretty close to our cost.
It is our idea that with excellent service and customers' re-orders and telling others about us, that we will grow slowly but in the right way.

As we grow we put a lot back into the local and national rescue groups that need our help so much! They do so much with so little.

All of the items we sell are made by people who love animals.

Does Pampered Paw Gifts use Green packing?

 

Yes! Pampered Paw Gifts sends gifts in recycled boxes and recycled packing peanuts.

We ship via USPS:
The Postal Service has the largest civilian alternate fuel vehicle fleet in the nation.
Priority Mail® and Express Mail® boxes and envelopes are Cradle to CradleSM certified. So they can go right in the recycling bin.

They use water-based inks to print stamps.
They use refined bio-based oil, alternative fuels such as compressed natural gas, hydrogen, or ethanol gas, and re-tread tires on our fleet of Postal vehicles
They ’re constantly streamlining our delivery routes to reduce driving time and fuel use.

The Postal Service has the largest civilian vehicle fleet in the nation and over 43,000 of them are alternative-fuel capable. Their E-85 alternative-fuel project put 584 ethanol-powered vehicles on the road in Minnesota alone. Since they primarily refuel at commercial retail fueling locations, their fleet generates demand for alternative fuels nationwide.
General Motors and the Postal Service worked together to test the GM HydroGen3 fuel cell minivan for deliveries in the Washington, D.C. metro area and Irvine, CA—the first commercial use of a fuel cell vehicle in the nation. Their other vehicle technology efforts include advanced diesel vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and electric CitiVans, which are recognized by the EPA as zero emission vehicles.
They are upgrading their buildings to reduce energy use. their objective is to reduce our energy consumption 30% by 2015.
They deliver the mail in the most energy-efficient way possible—a third of our deliveries are made on foot.

Also, Pampered Paw Gifts does not have a catalog in order to help save trees! Our newsletter is digital only so no paper is used for it as well.
