Contest Rules

To provide fair and equal chance of winning to all Emotibles.com users, the following are the official rules for all contests offered by Emotibles.com.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE CHANCES OF WINNING.

All winners must be 18 years of age or older, unless otherwise stated and/or posted.

1. Entering Contests and Choosing and Contacting Winners

Winners of random email contests will be chosen at random from emails received.

Entrants must send entries using the correct contest entry email address, subject line, and any other specific entry information requested in the contest announcement. Emotibles.com is not responsible for and will not consider incomplete or incorrect entries, or emails sent but not received by Emotibles.com for any reason, as potential contest winners.

Winners of all contests will be contacted at the "sender" email address used to enter the contest, and the person receiving and replying to the winner announcement email will be considered the winner unless they specify another person within the reply email as the winner. Emotibles.com will mail the contest prize to the address supplied by the recipient of the winner announcement email.

Only one entry per email address used to send the email will be considered for contest entry, unless multiple entries are specifically allowed in the contest posting. Unless otherwise specified in an individual contest post, no person may enter any contest more than once using multiple email addresses.

Claiming of prizes requires an email response to Emotibles.com from the winning sender email address within 30 days of being notified of winning at the email address used to enter. Failure to respond shall mean that the winner forfeits the prize. Emotibles.com is not required to award elsewhere any prizes forfeited by the chosen winner(s).
