Winning an Instant Prize will result in a text message to the mobile phone number submitted at the time of entry containing a unique link to a mobile coupon that can be redeemed at a participating Circle K location. Unclaimed Instant Prizes may be re-awarded at the Sponsor’s discretion.

  7. PRIZE CLAIM CONDITIONS.
    1. Daily Grand Prizes
      To be declared a winner and be awarded a Daily Grand Prize, the selected entrant must: (i) respond to the selection notification within the time period described above; (ii) correctly answer, without assistance of any kind, whether mechanical or otherwise, a time-limited mathematical skill-testing question administered at a mutually agreed upon time; and (iii) otherwise comply with these Rules. As a condition of being declared a winner, the selected entrant may also be required to do any or all of the following: (i) supply proof of age consisting of a legible photocopy of either a provincially issued driver’s license or other government issued identification; (ii) supply proof of address consisting of a legible photocopy of either a provincially issued driver’s license or other government issued identification, (iii) supply proof that they are the Authorized Mobile Account Holder associated with the selected mobile phone number, and (iv) sign and return the Sponsor’s Declaration and Release Form (the “Release Form”). The Release Form (among other things): (i) confirms compliance with these Rules and acceptance of the applicable Prize as awarded without substitution; (ii) releases the Sponsor, its affiliated and related companies, the prize suppliers, advertising and promotional agencies and each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, dealers, representatives, successors and assigns from any liability in connection with this Contest, the selected entrant’s participation therein and/or the awarding and use/misuse of the Prize or any portion thereof; and (iii) agrees to the publication, reproduction and/or other use of his/her name, address, voice, statements about the Contest and/or photograph or other likeness, without further notice or compensation, in any publicity or advertisement carried out by the Sponsor in any manner whatsoever, including print, broadcast or the Internet. The Release form must be received by Sponsor within the time period indicated on the Release Form. The Sponsor and its agents assume no responsibility for lost, stolen, delayed, illegible, damaged, misdirected, late, or otherwise void Release Forms.

      Declining the Prize, failing to correctly answer the mathematical skill-testing question, failing to return the properly executed Release Form within the time period indicated on the Release Form or otherwise failing to comply with these Rules will cause the Prize to be forfeited and a new Random Draw held in accordance with the process for the applicable Prize, as described above.

      In most cases, Prizes will be delivered to winners at the address submitted within four (4) to eight (8) weeks of receiving their correctly completed documentation. The Sponsor is not responsible for contacting or forwarding Prizes to winners who leave unclear or incomplete information, or for Prizes lost, misdirected, delayed or destroyed while in transit.

    2. Instant Prizes
      If you are eligible to win an Instant Prize, you may redeem such Prize by presenting your mobile coupon to a participating Circle K location in the Territory. Limit: up to three (3) Circle K mobile coupon redemptions per day, per mobile phone number, per person. Beverage Instant Prizes are subject to deposit and eco fees to be paid by the winner. All mobile coupons for an Instant Prize must be redeemed, in-store, within seven (7) days of issuance and in any event prior to January 8, 2024, after which time, the mobile coupon will expire. The Sponsor is not responsible for sending mobile coupons to winners who provide invalid mobile phone numbers.

If for any reason, it is confirmed that an entrant’s Entry was deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted by error, the only remedy, which the entrant is entitled to, is requesting to obtain another Entry to the Contest, if possible.
