Patchogue Businesses Hold Jelly Bean Contest

Businesses will each give in-store prizes to whomever is closest to the correct number of jelly beans in their jar, and one winner will receive $100.

A jelly bean guessing contest is running now through April 25 at various store locations throughout Patchogue Village.

One winner will be selected for each store and are eligible to win in-store prizes which could include gift certificates, a pair of binoculars, free merchandise, or a free meal. Actual prizes vary by store.

The store winners will then be pooled together and a grand prize winner will be chosen by lottery. The grand prize winner will receive a $100 cash prize.
