HOW TO ENTER:
To enter from your wireless phone, text the code word which corresponds with your preferred prize to the short code 95495 (the “Short Code”). The text messaging method of entry is designed to work with most of the major wireless carriers in the United States, but Sponsor makes no guarantee that any particular wireless service provider will participate, and the mobile phone that is used must be capable of sending and receiving text messages. Entrants should check their phone’s features to see if they have that capability. Wireless service providers may charge entrants for each text message, including any error message and/or auto response message, that is sent and received in connection with the “Enter to Win” Giveaway. Entrants should consult their wireless service provider’s pricing plan for details on text message charges. Proof of text messaging the Short Code is not considered proof of delivery to or receipt by Sponsor of such entry.
NOTE: By submitting an entry via text message, entrants are giving their express authorization to receive future phone calls from the Sponsor or Sponsor’s Partners. Entrants will be provided with an opportunity to opt out in all subsequent phone calls. Wireless service providers may charge entrants for any phone call, that is sent or received. Entrants should consult their wireless service provider’s pricing plan for details on call charges.
Limit one (1) entry per person, wireless number and/or email address, regardless of the method of entry.
All required information must be completed to enter and to be eligible to win. Incomplete entries will be disqualified. In the event of a dispute regarding the individual who actually submitted an entry, the entry will be deemed submitted by the authorized account holder of the wireless account supplied at the time of entry. The potential winner may be required to provide Sponsor with proof that he/she is the authorized account holder of the wireless account associated with the winning entry. If a dispute cannot be resolved to Sponsor’s satisfaction, the entry will be deemed ineligible. The Promotion Entities shall not be responsible for incorrect or inaccurate entry information whether caused by any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the “Enter to Win” Giveaway or by any technical or human error which may occur in the processing of the entries. The Promotion Entities assume no responsibility or liability for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, theft or destruction, or unauthorized access to, or alteration of entries.
All entries become the property of the Sponsor and none will be acknowledged or returned. False, fraudulent and/or deceptive entries or acts shall render entrants ineligible.
NOTE: The use of any device to automate the entry process is prohibited.
DRAWING/ODDS: The winner(s) will be selected in a random drawing on or about August 1, 2008 from among all eligible entries received during the Entry Period. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. Sponsor will attempt to notify potential winners within forty-eight (48) hours of the drawing date via the contact information provided at the time of entry. Sponsor shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by the potential winner for any reason. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected. If the winner is under the age of majority in his or her state of residence as of the date of the drawing (“Minor”), at Sponsor's option, the applicable prize either will be awarded in the name of a parent or legal guardian of Minor, or a parent or legal guardian of Minor will be required to ratify and sign an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and (where legal) a Publicity Release.
