entrants for each text message, including any error message that is sent and
received in connection with the Sweepstakes, based on the applicable wireless
service pricing plan. Message and data rates apply. Entrants should consult their wireless
service provider’s pricing plan for details.
Entry by sending a text message will not improve your chance of winning.

associated therewith. You are
responsible for all applicable fees and taxes associated with placing a text
entry. Sponsor in its sole discretion
