​


TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Contest begins July 18, 2022 at 12:00 a.m. ET and ends on August 28, 2022, at 11:59 ET. The contest time frame consists of six (6) contest periods with each defined as one (1) week (Monday 12:00 am to Sunday 11:59 pm EST). There are thirteen (13) prizes available to be won consisting of twelve (12) $50 gift cards for participating businesses to be drawn at a rate of two (2) winners per contest period and one (1) grand prize of $250 in gift cards from participating businesses to be selected from all eligible entries during the contest time frame. Open to legal residents of Ontario who are the age of majority at the time of entry with the exception of members of St. Lawrence Reduces and anyone living in their households.

There is a limit of one weekly prize per person, and one entry per person per day. 

The photo must be an original creation – no copyrighted images may be used. By entering, the participant certifies and warrants that the submitted photo(s) does not violate the rights of a third party or any copyright. St. Lawrence Reduces is not responsible for intellectual property violations that might have resulted through the submissions of photos.

Winning entries will be chosen at random and chances of winning depend on the number of eligible entrants in each contest period. Winners will be notified by Direct Message using the medium with which the entry was received (Instagram or Facebook). Only winning entrants will be notified. If an entrant is unable to be contacted after 48 hours upon reasonable attempts having been made to do so, St. Lawrence Reduces reserves the right to offer their prize to the next randomly selected entry.

By submitting their photos to the St. Lawrence Reduces photo contest, participants agree to grant St. Lawrence Reduces free of charge the right to use the photo in any manner and media, including without limitation, the right to publish, adapt, distribute, copy, display or translate in printed or electronic media even if they are not the winning entries. Winners are required to answer a skill-testing question.


HOW TO ENTER
The contest has two (2) entry methods for each contest period:
​
i) St. Lawrence Reduces will make a specific post on their Instagram and Facebook accounts asking participants to tag two (2) friends in the comments and follow @stlawrencereduces on Instagram or Facebook to obtain one (1) entry for that contest period (participants only need to enter on one platform to be eligible, not both).

ii) Take a photo showing their reusable and the inside or outside of the participating business and post the photo on their Instagram or Facebook feed (not to stories) using #stlawrencereduces and tag @stlawrencereduces in addition to the featured business’ Instagram or Facebook account, if available, for one (1) entry. Obtain one (1) additional entry if you tag two (2) friends in the post. The grand prize will be randomly selected from all eligible entries throughout the contest time frame.

I certainly support your efforts and am glad to have a list of the local businesses who welcome reusing and reducing. However, I would like to mention that not everyone is able to enter your contest because there are a still a number of old folks in the neighbourhood who do not use cellular phones. I know it is difficult for people to believe that there are folks like me in their 80s who still use only a computer and a landline. I'm not complaining as entering your contest is less important to me than reducing garbage; however, I did just want to make you aware of the facts. Thanks for your good work.
