53ER12-47. FLORIDA LOTTO™ Gas for Life Promotion (Replaced by 53ER14-11)

(1) Beginning Wednesday, May 23, 2012, through Wednesday, July 11, 2012, the Florida Lottery will conduct the FLORIDA LOTTO™ Gas for Life Promotion. Players who purchase a single FLORIDA LOTTO™ or FLORIDA LOTTO with XTRA ticket of $5 or more will receive a $50 instant winner coupon or an entry voucher with a unique serial number that can be entered in a drawing on the Florida Lottery’s website for a chance to win Gas for Life, Gas for a Year, Gas for a Month, or a VIP Race Package.

(2) Qualifying FLORIDA LOTTO ticket purchases will produce $50 instant winner coupons or entry vouchers from the beginning of the promotion period until close of game for FLORIDA LOTTO at 10:40 p.m. on July 11, 2012.

(3) Instant $50 Cash Prize Coupon.

(a) When a FLORIDA LOTTO ticket is produced that entitles the player to an instant prize of $50, a “winner” audio message will play on the terminal and the FLORIDA LOTTO ticket will contain a Lottery prize alert symbol and a message that the ticket holder is an instant winner. Cancellation of a qualifying FLORIDA LOTTO ticket will cancel an instant winner coupon unless the instant winner coupon has been redeemed. Once the instant winner coupon is redeemed, the FLORIDA LOTTO ticket cannot be cancelled. Should an issue arise concerning the transaction and/or prize, it is the player’s responsibility to seek resolution of the issue with the retailer and the Lottery prior to leaving the retail location.

(b) Winners can redeem a $50 instant winner coupon at any Florida Lottery retailer or any Florida Lottery office, or call [phone] [TDD [phone]] for instructions on how to claim the instant winner coupon by mail.

(c) Winners must redeem instant winner coupons by September 9, 2012.

(d) Approximately 7,000 $50 instant winner coupons will be produced.

(4) Vouchers. The entry voucher will be attached to the bottom of the FLORIDA LOTTO ticket. To enter an entry voucher serial number in a Gas for Life drawing, players must enter on the Lottery’s website at www.flalottery.com. On the home page of the Lottery’s website, players can click on the Gas for Life banner and follow the directions. The entry voucher serial number is located at the bottom on the front of the entry voucher. Players are to enter the first 13-digits of the 19-digit entry voucher serial number. A player will be able to enter his or her entry voucher serial numbers beginning at the top of the hour after the FLORIDA LOTTO ticket is purchased. A player entering an entry voucher serial number prior to the top of the hour after purchase will be directed to return at a later time to enter his or her entry voucher serial number in the drawing. Neither FLORIDA LOTTO tickets nor $50 instant winner coupons can be used for entry in the drawings. The odds of winning are dependent upon the number of entries received. Entry vouchers should not be mailed to the Lottery unless players are contacted by the Florida Lottery and requested to do so. Entry vouchers or tickets received in the mail by the Florida Lottery will not be entered in the drawing and will not be returned. Cancellation of a qualifying FLORIDA LOTTO ticket will also cancel the associated entry voucher and the entry voucher number will be ineligible for entry into a Gas for Life Promotion drawing. Entry voucher numbers associated with a cancelled FLORIDA LOTTO ticket that are entered into a Gas for Life Promotion drawing will be disqualified.
