How the draw works
How winners are picked
Drawn before the sale
Before the first box sells, we randomly draw 30 winning numbers between 1 and 500 and assign a prize to each. The list is locked from that point on.
Numbered in order
Every box and every mail-in entry gets the next number in line, in the order it reaches our system. Nobody picks which box gets which number.
Published after
When the promotion ends, we post every winning number with the date and time that entry came in, so you can check our work.
No purchase necessary
Free entry by mail
You can enter free by mail. A mail-in entry gets the next number in line, exactly like a box, with the same chance of being a winner.
