+++++++++++++++++++++++ Discount Shoppers Save! +++++++++++++++++++++++
The discount shops you visit while walking your pups offer a variety of items,at prices lower than the regular item store. They also randomly offer itemsthat are not available at all at the regular store.
Shopping for the lowest price can save you a lot of money over time;especially on food, water, and shampoo -items you use regularly (I hope!).

++++ Notes ++++
Prices are random. If you see a deal, buy it!
There are two Discount shops, each can have different prices and differentrandom items even on the same walk with one dog. Every time you enter, theprices and random items are reset.
I see the lowest prices on items about every three days or so. I walkmy two dogs twice every day each and stop by the discount shop at leastonce on each walk. However, the pricing is random (you could just see highprices for days on end!) and your experiences may vary. I try to keep at least 30 water and 30 in my inventory when stocking up, so my pups can go for over a week without having to buy anything.
Also note that you can save money on shampoo by brushing your puppy.It takes time, but you can get a pup from filthy to beautiful with a goodbrushing session!
++++ Credits:In the North American version, most prices were recorded by me whileI played. I would like to thank HoneyB for recording prices on manyof the items which appear at higher breeder levels. Thanks to Commodore75 for providing prices for several items which appear at higher breedlevels, and info about the PAL version.
In the Japanese version, each price was personally recorded by mewhile playing the game.
