All prize details will be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion.  Prizes will be awarded "as is" with no warranty or guarantee, either express or implied by Sponsor.  Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize (or portion thereof) with a similar prize (or prize element) of comparable or greater value for any reason at their sole discretion. Additional restrictions may apply.  Prize cannot be transferred by winner or redeemed for cash and is valid only for the items detailed above, with no substitution of prize by winner. If prize is unclaimed within a reasonable time after notification from Sponsor, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, it will be forfeited, and time permitting, an alternate winner may be selected from the remaining eligible entries at Sponsor's sole discretion.  If a minor is eligible to enter the Sweepstakes and is selected as a winner, the prize will be awarded in the name of such minor's parent or legal guardian and such parent or legal guardian must execute all documents necessary to verify winner.  Gift card, tickets and other prizes may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the prize provider or issuer.
