determine if the participant is a potential instant win prize winner, and the
participant shall receive an online message verifying if they are a potential
winner. If they are not determined as an
instant win prize winner, they will receive a non-winning message. If the participant is determined as a
potential instant win prize winner, they will receive a winner confirmation
message AND an associated unique prize claim code on their
results page. If the participant does
not receive the winner confirmation message and a valid unique prize claim code
for any reason, or receives the non-winning result message, then that
participant will not be a prize winner for that game play attempt.
Eligible participants may return to the Promotion website to play
the online instant win game up to one (1) time per day each day during the Promotion
Period. Each ‘day’ shall be defined as occurring between 12:00:00 am

determinant of the eligible time period. For a chance to be eligible to win an available instant win
prize (see below), game play attempts must occur before 11:59:59pm ET on 4/27/2024.
Instant Win prize winners will be randomly determined throughout

Instant Win prize winners will be randomly determined during the entire Promotion
Period, based upon randomly selected and predetermined winning dates and
times. The first eligible participant who participates at or
following a scheduled winning date and time, shall receive a winning prize
message and unique prize claim code, and shall be eligible to claim the prize
award for that attempt (see below). If there is no game play
attempt at or following the scheduled winning time on any date during the Promotion
Period, then the instant win prize shall not be awarded for that associated
date.

period, he/she will be automatically disqualified and
the prize will not be awarded.

placed into a random drawing, and the actual scheduled number of instant prize
winners as listed above will be randomly selected from all participants
receiving an instant win prize notification or submitting an instant winning
