Odds of winning the Prizes depend upon the number of eligible Entries received during the Promotion Period. The Winners are fully responsible for any and all applicable federal, state and local taxes (including income and withholding taxes). All costs and expenses associated with the Winners' participation in the Promotion and/or acceptance of the Prizes shall be the sole responsibility of the Winners unless otherwise provided in these Rules.
