YOUR THIRD AND FINAL CLUE IS LIVE IN OUR STORES! THIS IS FOR A CHANCE TO FIND A $500 BENSON'S GIFT CARD! 🔎🕵️‍♀️

Hidden Treats Season II Finale Clue #3 - Whis is SUPPLEMENTal, but necessary?

The clues posted this week will lead you to game pieces that are hidden in all of our stores. Don't worry, every Benson's has the same game pieces, and they will stay up in the store until the prize is found. The game pieces contain a jumbled phrase that will be needed for you to claim the prize. (Be sure to snap a picture or write down the information, as this is meant to stay in the store for others to find.)
On Friday, 10/23, the Game Master will be hiding somewhere in the Capital Region with the prize! They will be going live on Facebook throughout the day to hint at their whereabouts. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to find the Game Master and say the phrase in the correct order. The first person to do this wins the $500 Benson's Gift Card!

A little change, with a lot of heart.

At Benson’s, we believe that taking care of our team is part of taking care of our customers.

Starting Saturday, October 31, and then every Saturday after that, all Benson’s Pet Center locations will close at 6 p.m. matching our Sunday closing time. That means consistent weekend hours and a little more time for our team members to enjoy life outside of work.

We understand that even small changes take a little getting used to! For the first month, our team will be here to help customers who arrive after 6 p.m. as everyone adjusts to our new Saturday closing time.

Our commitment to you and your pets isn't changing. You can still count on the friendly faces, personal service, and neighborhood care that make Benson’s special.

Thank you for supporting our family-owned business and the people who make it what it is.

We just adore our TASP friends!

Mia sez, "Me and my peeps are just crowing about our TASP Easter Fantasy photo today at Benson's Pet Center in Colonie. With Easter right around the corner, there's so little time left to find that special little goodie for your loved one's basket! Why not give them a unique keepsake photo to remind them all year long how lucky they are to know you? There are over 20 different Easter and Spring-themed backgrounds to choose from.....so many, your biggest challenge will be to pick just one! And because none of those crazy TASP volunteers ever gets paid a cent for all the great work they do helping local pets stay safe and healthy, all proceeds from these photos are spent on animals and not on payroll! Find the directions and details right here: http://www.theanimalsupportproject.com/event/colonie-tasp-fantasy-photo-fund-raiser-easter/?instance_id=692
