WINNING/NOTIFICATION: On or about, August 2, 2022, one (1) Grand Prize Winner will be selected from among all eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.

Potential Grand Prize Winner with a prize over $600 must report income to the IRS.  In the event it is deemed during the verification process that the potential Grand Prize Winner does not have a unique, personal and valid social security number for Sponsor to report the tax liability associated with acceptance of the prize, such potential prize winner will be disqualified and an alternate will be notified as outlined above. Valid social security numbers will be determined by IRS requirements. If it is determined by the Sponsor, in its sole discretion, that the potential Grand Prize Winner is not eligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules, the potential prize winner forfeits his/her right to the prize and an alternate will be notified as outlined in the “WINNING/NOTIFICATION” section above, even if the disqualified potential prize winner’s name may have been publicly announced.  In the event that the potential prize winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor/Independent Administrator shall have no liability or obligation to such individual.
