53ER16-39 PICK 2™ and PICK 5™ Retailer Drawings.

(1) Beginning Monday, August 1, 2016, through Sunday, September 11, 2016, (“Promotion Period”) the Florida Lottery will conduct the PICK 2™ and PICK 5™ Retailer Drawings.  

(2) During the Promotion Period, for every $10 in PICK 2 and PICK 5 sales combined, Florida Lottery retailers will earn one entry into one of eighteen drawings for a chance to win $4,000.  Drawings will be held on Monday, September 19, 2016.

(3) Drawings and Prizes. The eighteen retailer drawings, determined by district and retailer category (corporate or independent), will be conducted by the Florida Lottery using a certified random number generation process. The number of entries drawn and prizes awarded will be in accordance with the following table:

Lottery Sales District	Prize Per Retailer	Number of Corporate Retailer Prizes	Number of Independent Retailer Prizes
District 1- Tallahassee	$4,000	2	2
District 3- Pensacola	$4,000	2	2
District 4- Jacksonville	$4,000	2	2
District 5- Gainesville	$4,000	2	2

A total of 52 $4,000 prizes will be awarded in the Promotion.

 

An individual retailer location may only win one prize per drawing. Alternate entries will be drawn in each drawing. The number of alternate entries drawn will be twice the number of prizes to be awarded in that drawing. Alternate entries will be used as needed in the order in which they are drawn to award a prize in the event a retailer’s entry is disqualified. Retailers will be subject to disqualification if the Florida Lottery determines that:

(a) the retailer has already been awarded a prize in that drawing;

(b) the retailer is not in good financial standing with the Florida Lottery at the time of prize payment; or

(c) the retailer is not in an “active” retailer status at the time of prize payment.

(4) Winning retailers will receive their Promotion prize check within approximately thirty days of the drawing.

(5) A promotional prize will be considered compensation to the retailer for Internal Revenue Service purposes.
