      1. You enter the last 4 digits of the barcode on the microsite home page and a thank you message is displayed on screen confirming that you have entered the prize draw.
      2. If you are a winner, you will receive a confirmation email the next working day letting you know that you have won.
      3. If you are entering after 17.11.21, then you will be entered into the next late entry draw and see a thank you message displayed on the screen confirming that you have entered the prize draw.

      5. If your computer or the website crashes during this process, please revisit the website and re-enter the same last 4 digits of the barcode again.

    Q. I haven't received a win notification email; does that mean I've not won?

    1. Firstly, please check your email Spam/Junk folder in case the win notification email has inadvertently been filed there. Please note that only winners will receive a winner’s email.
