This is getting complicated. I sent in my postcard by the 3/21 date so I might win that way, OR I can win if I have a ticket in my cd, OR I can send is a letter every day until 4/11 requesting the judges open a potentially winning CD for me?


that is exactly right! the 3/21 postcard is completely different from the one for the cd. keep in mind, the postcard must be HAND WRITTEN, they can't be typed wink


Okay, but the hand written ones that you can send in every day until 4/11--it doesn't specify POSTCARD--it just says, "send a request with your hand printed name, address, age & telephone number to..." How do I know whether to send postcards or a regular letters?
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

sorry, ur correct..it doesnt specify "postcard" for the cd entries...it did on the i-tunes sweepstakes. it just says "send a request with your hand printed name, address and age...", so a sheet of paper should do just fine wink

But it does specify Postcard for the Second Chance Sweepstakes section (section #7) nuts Things like this stress me out--I need clear instructions...I'm an indecisive Gemini who has a tendancy to overanalyze & worry... What if I send in the regular "play without purchase" on a letter & they really meant postcard b/c everything else has been on postcard? boxed

I know, chances are I won't win anyway but I want to not win b/c I don't win, not because I didn't follow the rules.

Okay---I'm gonna go lurk around NPG and see if I can find the answer...

I'm soo confused.

Ok, like I said, I sent in a Postcard when they did the Contest
with ITUNES, because I did not do the D/L.....and this Postcard
had to be in by 3/21.

Now, they come out with another, that needs to be by 4/11. So
could I just send in another Postcard now, even though I
haven't gotten my CD yet? What if, a big what if, one is in
there?!?

Well I think this is how it works:
If you get a CD with a ticket in it that says: "Congratulations. You've won a private show by Prince at his home!" then you have to send that in by April 11 to get the official details from them and accept the prize. But if your CD doesn't have it, you can still send in postcards until 4/11 and those are seperate from the one that had to be in by 3/21. I'm doing all of it, b/c it can't hurt, right? IF you get the ticket in your CD and send it in before 4/11, they will probably take your postcard out of the running for the drawing part, since that will happen after April 11. I'm sure they have ways of making sure the same person doesn't win more than one ticket.

Thanks, that made sense. I just couldn't see it
that way at first until you said it.
