Staples 10,000 winners starts Nov 16

[allisolm]

Info

Says 10,000 will win their entire purchase. Every Staples purchase between 11/16 and 12/24 is elegible. Enter every time you buy. Also says no purchase necessary to win. Details not available currently. I guess on the 16th.

Rules

If you do not wish to make a purchase, you may enter by hand printing your first and last name, complete address, daytime phone number, email address, date of birth and the phrase ?Staples is the place to shop for my holiday gifts? on a plain 3" x 5" paper, and mailing it in a hand-addressed stamped envelope, to: The Staples Holiday Promotion, P.O. Box 7922, Melville, NY 11775-7922

No purchase necessary, but you need an order confirmation # or receipt to enter to win....

There's probably going to be a way to enter without a receipt, but the rules aren't up yet - at least that I can find.

Yeah. Maybe a mail in thing or whatever. We'll see tomorrow when the contest opens up.

From the rules:

Coles version:
1. mail in as many entrie to the address below (must be all hand written)
2. you can only win once
3. if your entry is drawn then your prize is determined by randomly selecting a purchase transaction from among all the purchase transactions submitted

4. No Purchase Necessary: If you do not wish to make a purchase, you may enter by hand printing your first and last name, complete address, daytime phone number, email address, date of birth and the phrase ?Staples is the place to shop for my holiday gifts? on a plain 3" x 5" paper, and mailing it in a hand-addressed stamped envelope, to: The Staples Holiday Promotion, P.O. Box 7922, Melville, NY 11775-7922. You may enter as often as you wish, but each entry must be mailed separately. Mail-in entries must be postmarked by December 24, 2008 and received by December 31, 2008, to be eligible for the random drawing. Mechanically reproduced entries are automatically void. All entries become property of Staples, the Office Superstore (the ?Sponsor?).

6. Random Drawing: Winners will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. Drawing will be conducted on or about January 7, 2009, by Administrator, an independent judging organization whose decisions are final on all matters relating to this Promotion. Approximate odds of winning are dependent upon the number of eligible entries received. Limit one prize per person, regardless of how many entries are received from each person. If more than one entry from the same person is selected in the random drawing, that person will win ONLY the amount associated with the first entry that was drawn. The prizes will be awarded by mail and winners will be notified by mail and/or email. Void where prohibited and subject to all federal, state and local laws.

7. Prizes and Approximate Retail Value (?ARV?): Prizes (10,000): 10,000 winners will receive a check equal to the total purchase amount, including any sales tax paid, corresponding to the Receipt Code or online confirmation number submitted during their entry, or the purchase made with their Rewards card, with a maximum reimbursement of up to $5,000. In the event a winner entered via the mail-in no purchase method of entry, his/her prize will be determined by randomly selecting a purchase transaction from among all the purchase transactions submitted during the Promotion Period. That randomly selected purchase amount will be the prize he/she wins, up to $5,000. No substitution or transfer of a prize by winner is permitted. All applicable federal, state and local taxes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the individual winner.
