If the Contest Sponsors discover that any entrant has attempted to: (i) use more than one (1) Social Media Accounts during the Contest Period to enter the Contest; and/or (ii) use multiple names or identities to enter the Contest; then in the sole and absolute discretion of the Contest Sponsors he/she may be disqualified from the Contest. Use or attempted use of any automated, script, robotic or other systems to enter or disrupt this Contest is prohibited and is grounds for disqualification.

The approximate retail value of a prize may be from $50CDN to $500CDN (or as otherwise provided), depending on the Contest, and will be listed separately on the Description Page for each Contest.
