3. HOW TO ENTER: There are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes:
(a) Purchase Method of Entry: To enter the Sweepstakes via this method, you must visit a Hy-Vee Food Store and sign-up for a free Hy-Vee Fuel Saver + Perks® customer loyalty card (“Program Loyalty Card”) if you do not already have one. Next, purchase any Frito-Lay brand product (one greater than 4 ounces; single-serve bags do not count toward the Sweepstakes) at a participating Hy-Vee location with your Program Loyalty Card during the Sweepstakes Period (“Qualifying Purchase”). By presenting your Program Loyalty Card at the time of purchase, you will receive one (1) entry into the random drawing corresponding to the Entry Period in which you completed your Qualifying Purchase. All Qualifying Purchases must be completed by 11:59:59 p.m. CT on September 6, 2022.
(b) Email Entry: To enter without making a purchase or signing up for a Hy-Vee Fuel Saver + Perks® card: During the Sweepstakes Period, email [email protected] with “Hy-Vee Summer Sweepstakes Entry” stated in the Subject line and then include your first and last name, complete street address, daytime phone number, date of birth, and email address in the body of the email to receive one (1) entry into the random drawing corresponding to the Entry Period in which you submitted your entry.
Limit one (1) entry per person/email address per day, regardless of entry method. A “day” is defined as each twenty-four (24) hour time period beginning at 12:00:00 a.m. CT and ending at 11:59:59 p.m. CT of the same day.
All entrants must have a valid email address. Multiple entrants may not share the same email address. A potential winner may be required to provide identification sufficient to show that he/she is the authorized account holder of such account. Automated and/or repetitive electronic submission of entries (including but not limited to entries made using any script, macro, bot or sweepstakes service) will be disqualified. If it is discovered that an entrant used multiple email addresses, phone numbers and/or mailing addresses, and/or the manipulated such information, for the purpose of obtaining more than the stated number of entries or prizes, such person will be disqualified and any prize won shall be forfeited.
4. RANDOM DRAWINGS: One (1) winner will be selected for each Entry Period in a random drawing on or about each Estimated Drawing Date listed in Section 2 from among all eligible entries received for the corresponding Entry Period (each an “Entry Period Drawing”). Entries will not carry forward to subsequent Entry Period Drawings. All drawings will be conducted by the Administrator, whose decisions are final in all matters relating to this Sweepstakes. Odds of winning a prize depend on the number of eligible entries received for a given drawing. Limit one (1) prize per person/household.
5. PRIZE DETAILS: Sixteen (16) prizes will be awarded (one (1) per Entry Period): Each winner will receive one (1) $500 Hy-Vee Gift Card. Gift Cards are subject to terms and conditions as set by issuer. Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”) of each prize: $500.00.
Winner must accept prize as stated by Sponsor or prize may be forfeited. Any difference between stated value and actual value will not be awarded. Total ARV of all prizes is $8,000.00.
