The Promotion consists of ten (10) separate periodic sweepstakes (individually, “Sweepstakes Period”) as set forth in Section 4 of these Official Rules.

Participation constitutes Entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules as well as Sponsor’s and/or Administrator’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein.

 

3.    METHODS OF ENTRY:  An Entrant may enter using one (1) of following two (2) methods of entry: 

 

Entry Method 1:  After completing a purchase at a participating Haggen Northwest Fresh retail store, the customer will receive an invitation to participate in a survey (“Survey”). This invitation will be printed on the Haggen Northwest Fresh store receipt. The customer must log on to the URL provided on the receipt and complete the Survey within seven (7) calendar days from the date of purchase. After completing the Survey, the customer will be asked if he or she wishes to enter the Promotion. If the customer is an eligible Entrant and wishes to participate in the Promotion, he or she must then enter the requested registration information, which may include, but is not limited to: complete first and last name (initials are not permitted), valid e-mail address, complete street address (P.O. Boxes are not accepted), city, state, ZIP Code, telephone number and birthday. After entering this information, the Entrant must click on the submit button to receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes Period running when the entry is received. Limit one (1) entry per receipt. Purchase must be made in-store by January 21, 2015. As long as the purchase is made on or before January 21, 2015, Entrants will still have seven (7) calendar days from the date of purchase to enter the last Sweepstakes Period. For example, a customer who has made a purchase on January 21, 2015 will have until January 28, 2015 to complete the survey and receive an entry into the last Sweepstakes Period.

 

Entry Method 2 (alternative method of entry):  This entry method is for those who have not made a purchase. Under this method of entry, during the Promotion Period, visit and follow the steps to receive an entry into a Sweepstakes Period, including providing the requested registration information. 

 

Regardless of the method of entry, the entry date will be the date that the Entrant either completes the Survey or receives an entry by the alternative method of entry, not the date of the receipt or purchase. Therefore, it is possible for an Entrant to complete a purchase during one Sweepstakes Period and receive an entry into the next Sweepstakes Period. Regardless of the method of entry, an Entrant may only enter the Promotion once per calendar day during the Promotion Period. A calendar day starts at 12:00 AM ET (midnight) and ends at 11:59:59 PM ET each day during the Promotion Period.

 

To be eligible for a Prize, the Entrant must comply with these Official Rules. Each Entrant must be the authorized account holder of a valid e-mail account. Entries generated by a script, macro, or other automated means will be disqualified. Entries that are incomplete, non-deliverable for any reason, garbled, corrupted, or unintelligible for any reason, including, but not limited to, computer or network malfunction or congestion, are void and will not be accepted. In case of a dispute over the identity of an Entrant, the authorized account holder of the e-mail address used to enter will be deemed to be the Entrant. “Authorized account holder” is defined as the person who is assigned to an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the submitted e-mail address. Entry constitutes permission (except where prohibited by law) to use Entrant’s name, city, state, likeness, image, and/or voice for purposes of advertising, promotion, and publicity in any and all media now or hereafter known, throughout the world in perpetuity, without additional compensation, notification, permission, or approval. 

 

4.    RANDOM DRAWING:  On or about each of the Random Drawing Dates below, Administrator will randomly select two (2) potential winners (each a “Winner”) from all eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period. Each Winner will be deemed a potential Winner pending verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules. Entrants must enter during each Sweepstakes Period to be eligible to win a Prize for that Sweepstakes Period. Entries will not be carried over from one Sweepstakes Period to the next Sweepstakes Period.
