WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION: One (1) potential Grand Prize (defined below) winner will be selected in a random drawing on or about 1/8/24 from among all eligible Entries received for the Sweepstakes (“Grand Prize Winner”). Random drawing will be conducted by West Coast Marketing, an independent judging organization. Decisions of Sponsor and West Coast Marketing shall be final and binding in all matters relating to this Sweepstakes. The potential Grand Prize Winner will be notified by direct message (on the Social Media Platform used for entry) within one (1) day of the random drawing and will be required to provide complete contact information and verify eligibility in the Sweepstakes within twenty-four (24) hours of attempted notification or prize will be forfeited and an alternate potential Grand Prize Winner may, at Sponsor’s sole discretion be selected in a subsequent random drawing.

Sponsor is not responsible for any failure of attempted delivery of notice using the above-referenced notification methods.

Potential Grand Prize Winner (or potential Grand Prize Winner’s parent or legal guardian if potential Grand Prize Winner is considered a Minor) will be required to execute and return via fax or scanned and emailed pdf, a notarized Affidavit of Eligibility/Release of Liability and (except where prohibited) Publicity Release form and a completed IRS W-9 form within three (3) days of date of notification.

The potential Grand Prize Winner’s failure to respond to any notification or to return all required forms in this three (3) day time period, or to comply with any other provision herein, may result in the potential Grand Prize Winner being disqualified and time-permitting an alternate potential Grand Prize Winner selected at Sponsor’s sole discretion and in the same manner the potential Grand Prize Winner had been chosen.

If any prize notification or prize is returned as undeliverable for any reason and Sponsor or its representative is unable to contact potential Grand Prize Winner in a timely manner (as determined by Sponsor), prize will be forfeited, and an alternate potential Grand Prize Winner may be selected in a subsequent random drawing.

PRIZE: Only one (1) Grand Prize will be awarded. The “Grand Prize” consists of a selection of gold bar(s) of varying standardly issued weight(s) totaling a retail value not to exceed $5000 at time of actual purchase. The actual value of the Grand Prize may vary depending on the recognized price of gold bullion at the time the Grand Prize is purchased and delivered. The price of gold bullion fluctuates constantly; therefore, the actual value of the Grand Prize awarded may be lower or higher at the time it is fulfilled and any difference will not be awarded. The Grand Prize winner will be responsible for any storage costs or fees (if any) once the Grand Prize has been delivered to the Grand Prize Winner.

Any unclaimed and/or unused Grand Prize will be forfeited by the Grand Prize Winner and will remain the property of Sponsor or its designee. Grand Prize is non-transferable and non-assignable. No prize substitution or cash redemption allowed by Grand Prize Winner. In the event Sponsor or its designee is unable to contact the Grand Prize Winner after three (3) separate attempts within three (3) consecutive days, Sponsor or its designee’s failure to make arrangements for delivery of the Grand Prize will not be considered a breach of these Official Rules and Sponsor shall not have any further obligation or liability to provide the Grand Prize to the Grand Prize Winner. Sponsor will have the right to provide a substitute prize of equivalent retail value in the event Sponsor is unable to deliver the Grand Prize as detailed herein (in whole or in part) for reasons outside Sweepstakes Entities’ control.

Prize may not be sold, bartered or exchanged by Grand Prize Winner except as may be allowed by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Grand Prize is provided "as is" and without any warranty of any kind. If necessary, due to unavailability for any reason, comparable prizing will be awarded at the sole discretion of the Sponsor. By accepting the Grand Prize, the Grand Prize Winner acknowledges compliance with these Official Rules.

Note: All details of Grand Prize awarded to the Grand Prize Winner are at the sole discretion of Sponsor or its designee. Any costs or fees associated with Grand Prize receipt and/or use that are not expressly stated above are not included in the Grand Prize and are the sole responsibility of the Grand Prize Winner.

Awarding of the Grand Prize is subject to the Grand Prize Winner’s acceptance of all requisite conditions within these Official Rules and the Grand Prize Winner’s ability and agreement to grant the rights set forth in these Official Rules and all required documents detailed herein.

Acceptance of Grand Prize constitutes permission (except where prohibited) granted to Sponsor to use the Grand Prize Winner’s name, likeness, picture, voice, biographical information and statements for publicity, advertising, trade and promotional purposes in connection with the Sweepstakes or the Program(s) in any and all media and manner, and by any and all means now known or hereafter devised in perpetuity worldwide without additional consideration, compensation or limitation of any kind, and without the need to get any further consent. Any and all such recordings shall at all times be owned by, and the exclusive property of, Sponsor.

All federal, state and local tax liabilities are the responsibility of the Grand Prize Winner.

POTENTIAL GRAND PRIZE WINNER IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE SWEEPSTAKES.
