Calling All Pet Parents with Plastic Bag Hoarders Anonymous Tendencies: It's Treats Time at PetSmart!
Listen up, pet fanatics! Do you find yourself leaving PetSmart with more receipts than your cat leaves hairballs on the rug? Do you secretly (or not-so-secretly) hoard those little blue plastic bags like they're vintage Chanel? Well, my friend, it's time to level up your pet supply game and become a Treats member at PetSmart! Consider it a frequent buyer program on steroids, but instead of questionable life choices for yourself (trust me, that bag of candy corn is not a good idea), you're spoiling your furry (or feathered, or scaled) overlord!
Treats 101: From Humble Beginnings to Treat Me Like a Queen (or King)
Joining Treats is easier than teaching your goldfish to fetch (although, if you've managed that, kudos – we need to talk!). There are three ways to sign up for this magical land of pet points:
- The In-Store Sign-Up: Channel your inner rockstar and strut up to the cashier with your head held high. Ask them to sign you up for Treats, and within minutes, you'll be earning points like nobody's business. Bonus points (pun intended) for batting your eyelashes and mentioning how much your poodle loves those squeaky lobsters.
- The Online Portal: Feeling a bit more introverted? No problem! Head over to the PetSmart website and get your Treats membership rolling in the comfort of your PJs. Just make sure you don't get distracted by those adorable kitten videos halfway through – we've all been there.
- The Pet Parent App: Download the PetSmart app (it's free, and trust us, it's like Instagram for pet people) and sign up for Treats right there. Warning: This may lead to excessive browsing of the cat costume section. You've been advised.
Pointastic! Earning Those Treats Like a Champ
Once you're a Treats member, every dollar you spend is a point earned. That giant bag of kibble? Points. That fancy new fish tank ornament shaped like a pineapple? Points, my friend, points! And here's the best part: the more you shop, the higher your Treats tier goes. Basic members earn 10 points per dollar, but as you climb the Treats ladder (because, let's face it, who doesn't want to be a VIP Pet Parent?), you'll unlock even sweeter point-earning opportunities.
Treats Tip: Keep an eye out for those special Treats offers! They'll pop up in your email or the app, and they can be anything from double points days to discounts on specific brands. It's like finding a twenty-dollar bill in your winter coat – but way more predictable.
Redeem Those Points, Baby! It's Payday for Your Pet
So you've been swiping that Treats card like a pro and your point balance is looking mighty impressive. Time to cash in! Treats points can be redeemed for all sorts of goodies, from food and toys to grooming services and even obedience training classes (because, let's be honest, sometimes Fido needs a little reminder that chasing the mailman is a bad idea).
Here's the golden rule: Every 1,000 points translates to a whopping $2 off your next purchase. Do the math: that mountain of kitty litter you just bought could have been significantly less painful on the wallet (and let's face it, kitty litter is never cheap).
So, what are you waiting for? Join the Treats fam and unleash the ultimate pet pampering session! Your wallet might whimper a little, but your furry (or feathered, or scaled) friend will thank you for it.
P.S. Who knows, maybe with all those points you'll finally be able to afford that life-sized cardboard cutout of the Rock for your dog to wrestle with. We wouldn't judge... much.
