Sweepstakes Prize(s) Conditions: Upon confirmation of eligibility a winner will receive the prize(s) as set forth in the Specific Promotion.

Entering a sweepstakes is no guarantee you will win a prize. Prizes are non-transferable and no substitution will be made except as provided herein at the Sponsor’s sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute any listed prize for one of equal or greater value for any reason.
Winning a prize may be a taxable event, depending upon the ARV and how many times you have won in a calendar year. Taxes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the winner(s), and winner(s) are free to reject a prize. If a winner accepts a prize that triggers a tax, the winner will be issued an IRS Form 1099 for the ARV of any awarded prize(s). All federal, state or other tax liabilities (including income taxes) arising from any Specific Promotion will be the sole responsibility of each winner who accepts a prize. Any and all other prize-related expenses associated with prize receipt and/or use, shall be the sole responsibility of the winner. Any prizes pictured in point-of-sale, online, television, and print advertising, in promotional packaging, and in other Sweepstakes materials may be for illustrative purposes only, and your prize may look different. No substitution of prize or transfer/assignment of prize to others. No request for the cash equivalent of the prize by winner(s) is permitted.
In some cases, the prize will be delivered as a coupon or electronic gift card for the ARV of the prize.
All details and other restrictions of the prize(s) not specified in these Rules will be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Prize limits, if any, will be set forth in the Specific Promotion.
Odds: The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received before the Sweepstakes End Date.
