If the Contest entrant is under the age of majority in his/her province or territory of residence at the time of entry, he or she must provide the email address and telephone number of his/her parent or legal guardian during the Contest registration process.

If any entrant attempts to obtain more than the specified number of entries (with or without purchase) or for any other reason, the Sponsor may, in its sole and absolute discretion, disqualify the entrant from the Contest as well as all of his or her entries.

Entries will be declared invalid if they are late, illegible, incomplete, damaged, irregular, mutilated, forged, garbled, or mechanically or electronically reproduced. Should it be discovered that an entrant is using the aid of computer software programs to auto-fill entries in an unauthorized manner, that entrant will be immediately disqualified from the Contest. No communication or correspondence will be exchanged with entrants except with those selected to potentially win the Prize. The Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify all such entrants from future contests conducted by the Sponsor without further notice.

If it is discovered by the Sponsor (using any evidence or other information made available to or otherwise discovered by the Sponsor) that any person has attempted to: (i) obtain more than one (1) Entry during the Contest Period; and/or (ii) use (or attempt to use) multiple names, identities, email addresses and/or any automated, macro, script, robotic, or other system(s) or program(s) to enter or otherwise participate in or disrupt this Contest, then he/she may be disqualified from the Contest in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor. Your Entry may be rejected if, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor, the Entry Form is not fully completed with all required information and submitted and received during the Contest Period. The Released Parties (defined below) are not responsible for late, lost, misdirected, delayed, incomplete, or incompatible Entries, all of which are void.    

Receipts that have been submitted for the purpose of entering the Contest that cannot be validated for any reason will be rejected. Reasons for rejections include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) fails to pass anti-fraud detection system; (ii) is unauthorized, fake, or not from a participating store, or has been illegitimately obtained; (iii) contains any messages, or other markings not recognized by the administrator; (iv) is illegible, unreadable, not in focus, or blank; (v) has been previously used; (vi) does not include at least one of the specifically listed Participating Products, or is not dated during the Contest Period; or (vii) is incorrectly or incompletely entered or submitted. Please also keep your original RECEIPT. Receipts are not interchangeable after the fact. The photo of the receipt submitted with your Entry is the receipt associated with that Entry, whether mistakenly submitted by you or otherwise. Each RECEIPT is unique and can only be used one (1) time as an entry for this Contest. All receipts submitted are subject to verification at the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor. Any receipts that cannot be verified to the full satisfaction of the Sponsor as per these rules and regulations will cause that Entry to be invalid (in which case any right to any Prize associated with such invalidated receipts will be forfeited in its entirety).

3. PRIZE

PRIZE: There is one (1) Prize available to be won by random draw, consisting of five thousand dollars ($5,000 CAD) to be awarded in the form of a cheque. The sponsor’s agency will contact the potential Prize winner directly and help with prize fulfillment. 

Odds of winning: The odds of winning the Prize depend on the total number of eligible entries during the Contest Period.

The Prize must be accepted as awarded and is not transferable, refundable, for resale. No substitutions are permitted except at the Sponsor’s option.

The Sponsor reserves the right, in the event that the Prize, or any component of the Prize, cannot be awarded as described for any reason, to substitute the same for another prize or component of equal or greater value without liability.

If the entrant selected for the Prize forfeits the Prize, it will be reawarded at the option of the Sponsor, subject to, among other things, time availability.

If the Prize winner is under the age of majority in their province or territory of residence, the Declaration and Release Form required to claim the Prize must be signed by a parent/legal guardian (as described in section 5 below).

4. PRIZE DRAW

A random draw for one (1) Prize will be held on Monday, September 30, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. (ET) in Montreal, Quebec by CRI Agence, located at 85 St-Paul Street W., Montreal, QC H2Y 3V4, among all eligible entries received by the Contest Closing Date. 

Three (3) attempts will be made to contact the selected entrant at the email address provided on the Entry form and two (2) attempts at the phone number between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. ET during a period of seven (7) days following the draw. If the selected entrant cannot be contacted within seven (7) days, by either email or phone, he or she will be considered to have forfeited the Prize and will be disqualified and another entrant may be drawn from the remaining eligible entries until such time as a selected entrant has been contacted or there are no more eligible entries, whichever comes first. The Sponsor will not be responsible for failed attempts to contact a selected entrant.

5. CLAIMING YOUR PRIZE

The Prize claim is subject to verification. The selected entrant (or his or her parent or legal guardian if the selected entrant is under the age of majority in his/her province or territory of residence) will be required to sign a Declaration and Release Form confirming compliance with the Official Rules, acceptance of the Prize as awarded (without substitution), providing the correct answer to a mathematical skill-testing question (without assistance of any kind, whether mechanical or otherwise), and releasing the Sponsor, the Contest Group, the independent contest organization, and each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, parents, subsidiaries, affiliated and related companies, and successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any liability in connection with the Prize or the Contest (the “Release Form”). 

The selected entrant will have seven (7) days to complete and return the Release Form in accordance with the instructions contained therein, or he or she will be disqualified from receiving the Prize and another entrant may be selected from the remaining eligible entrants until such time as a winner is chosen or there are no more eligible entrants, whichever comes first.  Sponsor will contact the Prize winner within thirty (30) days of receiving his/her signed Release Form to arrange for the delivery of the Prize.

The refusal by any potential winner to accept the Prize (or any portion thereof) releases and forever discharges the Released Parties from all obligations related to the Prize, including delivery. If a potential winner is found to be ineligible, declines to accept the Prize, or in the event that the Prize confirmation or the Prize itself is returned undeliverable, the Prize will be forfeited, and an alternative eligible entrant may be randomly selected from the remaining eligible entries at Sponsor’s sole discretion.
