  2. Selection and Determination of Prize Winners and Prize Distribution: Prize-winning Entrants will be selected through random draws of all eligible digital ballot entries received by the end of the Contest Period. Beginning on October 2, 2023, and continuing on each Friday during the Contest Period, a $75 gift package (Seventh Prize) will be awarded, for a total of three (3). The draws for Prize Packages One through Six will be held by Thursday, November 2 at 5:00 p.m. AST. All draws will take place at CUA’s Corporate Office, located at 7105 Chebucto Rd, Suite 350, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Entrants drawn as winners of Prize Package Seven will remain eligible in draws for Prize Packages One through Six. Entrants are not eligible to win more than once in the three draws for Prize Package Seven. Entrants are also not eligible to win more than once in draws for Prize Packages One through Six. Should an entrant have their name drawn twice, the higher value prize drawn will be the one awarded. Selected Entrants will be notified by telephone using the number they provided upon completing the digital ballot. If the winner cannot immediately be reached, a voicemail will be left requesting them to contact a CUA representative to claim their prize. If a response from the voicemail is not received within twenty-four (24) hours, CUA will conduct one additional phone call and email the Entrant with the email address they provided upon completing the digital ballot. If there is no response to the second phone call and initial email within twenty-four (24) hours, the entry will be considered void and disqualified. The Entrant will then have no recourse against CUA. A new Entrant will be selected for the prize, and the above notification process will be repeated until all selected Entrants are contacted. The odds of selection will depend on the total number of eligible entries received. Before being declared a prize winner, each selected Entrant must a) be confirmed as a Current Member of CUA residing in Nova Scotia; b) sign a photo consent form confirming their name, photo and likeness may be used in CUA marketing and promotions; and c) may be required to correctly answer a time-limited, skill-testing mathematical question, without mechanical or other assistance. Selected Entrants must accept their prize as awarded; no prize is redeemable for exchanges or substitutions. The selected Entrants may be required to attend CUA’s Corporate Office or their local CUA branch to receive their prize.
