3.    How to Enter: There are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes during the Sweepstakes period. There is NO PURCHASE NECESSARY to participate. A purchase does not increase your chances of winning. 

Via Instagram: During the Sweepstakes Period, the Sponsor will post an Instagram ad/post (an “Instagram Post”) in relation to the Sweepstakes. Click on the Instagram Post and complete the registration form on screen in its entirety in order to receive one (1) entry into the random drawing (“Instagram Entry”). If you do not have an Instagram account, you can create one for free here. Limit one (1) Instagram Entry per person/email address per day.

To earn an Entry into the Sweepstakes without clicking on the Instagram Post (“AMOE Entry”), send an email here with your first name, last name, street address, state, ZIP code and D.O.B. and the subject line: “Fanta Dry January Sweepstakes”, during the Sweepstakes Period, to receive one (1) AMOE Entry. Limit one (1) AMOE Entry per person/email address per day.

Instagram Entries and AMOE Entries collectively, will be referred to herein as (“Entries”). Limit two (2) Entries total per person/email address per day regardless of method of Entry or combination of methods of Entry.

Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the stated number of Entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations or logins, or any other methods will void that Entrant’s Entries and that Entrant may be disqualified from the Sweepstakes. Any use of robotic, repetitive, automatic, programmed or similar Entry methods or agents (including, but not limited to, sweepstakes entry services) will void all Entries by that Entrant. In the event of a dispute as to any Entry, the authorized account holder of the email address will be deemed to be the Entrant. The "authorized account holder" is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holders.

 

4.    Prizes & Approximate Retail Values (“ARV”): One hundred eighty-six (186) prizes total: A Fanta kit including four (4) cans of Fanta in Dry January packaging. The ARV of the prize is up to $5.00 each. All prize details, including delivery, are in Sponsor’s sole discretion. If a prize becomes unavailable, Sponsor will substitute a prize of equal or greater retail value in its sole discretion. In the event the prize is valued at less than the stated maximum ARV, winner will not receive any additional compensation. Prizes are awarded “as is”. No transfer, cash or other substitution of a prize is permitted except by Sponsor who may substitute prize in whole or in part for one of comparable or greater retail value for any reason. Resale of any prize is prohibited.

 

5.    Random Drawing/Odds: There will be one hundred eighty-six (186) winners selected in a random drawing on or about February 3, 2025 from among all eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period. Drawing will be conducted by the Administrator, an independent judging organization whose decisions are final and binding on all matters related to the drawing. The odds of winning a prize depend on the total number of eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.

 

6.    Winner Notification: The potential winners will be notified by the Administrator by email and will be required to confirm their eligibility and provide a mailing address within three (3) days of notification. If any potential prize winner’s notification is returned as non-deliverable, or if the Entrant fails to return the required verification documents or respond within the required time frame, said Entrant may be disqualified and a potential alternate prize winner may be selected for the prize. In addition, if a potential prize winner is found to be ineligible or if they do not comply with the Official Rules, said Entrant will be disqualified. If an Entrant is disqualified for one of the reasons mentioned above or the prize is returned as undeliverable and an alternate is selected, the alternate must complete and return the required documents in the timeframe specified. Up to three (3) alternates per prize may be selected. Prizes will be delivered via mail within 4-6 weeks after winner verification.
