4. Drawing of SPIN ID numbers: For each Individual Sweepstakes drawing, up to six (6) SPIN ID Numbers for each Show Week (one (1) SPIN ID Number for each day from Monday to Saturday only) (described in Section 5 below) will be randomly selected from all eligible SPIN ID Numbers at the time of the Registration Deadline for that particular Individual Sweepstakes (see Chart above). Non-winning eligible SPIN ID Numbers from previous drawings will be retained for subsequent drawings and thus, will be automatically registered in subsequent Individual Sweepstakes. All drawings will be held on the day immediately following the respective Registration Deadline (beginning January 14, 2013), by the Sweepstakes administrator, an independent judging organization, at their offices in Burbank, CA. At the election of the Show, in its sole discretion, an Individual Sweepstakes drawing may not be conducted on a given drawing date due to production exigencies. For those instances in which a drawing is not conducted on a given drawing date, additional selections will be made in the prior or subsequent drawing or on a new drawing date determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion.
5. Notification and Verification of Potential Winners: For each Show Week, the Individual Sweepstakes will be played in up to six (6) of the Show’s broadcasts (Monday to Saturday only), in Sponsor’s sole discretion. On each of such Show broadcasts (Monday through Saturday only), the one (1) SPIN ID Number that was randomly selected in the Individual Sweepstakes drawing for that particular Show will be displayed on screen during the Show immediately after the SPIN ID-designated Prize Puzzle. The registrant associated with a displayed SPIN ID number is a potential winner (subject to verification and compliance with the Official Rules) and must then confirm his/her SPIN ID number was displayed by logging in to the Web Site, and following the online instructions to verify whether their SPIN ID number was displayed on the Show. Registrants can also verify by accessing the Wheel of Fortune web site and following the online instructions to verify whether their SPIN ID number was displayed on the Show. If such registrant does not complete such Online SPIN ID Verification within 24 hours or has unsubscribed from Wheel Watchers Club membership at the time the Sweepstakes is played, he/she may be disqualified and forfeit any eligibility for that prize. Upon submission of Online SPIN ID Verification information, registrant will be notified as to whether he/she is a potential winner. IT IS A POTENTIAL WINNER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO COMPLETE ONLINE VERIFICATION WITHIN THE CORRESPONDING 24 HOUR VERIFICATION PERIOD TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A PRIZE. NOTE: THE ABILITY TO COMPLETE ONLINE SPIN ID VERIFICATION BY A REGISTRANT WHOSE SPIN ID NUMBER WAS DISPLAYED ON THE SHOW MAY BE AFFECTED IF A SHOW THAT WAS ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED TO AIR ON A PARTICULAR DATE IS MOVED (REGIONALLY OR NATIONALLY) TO ANOTHER DATE, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 2 ABOVE. Eligible registrants can only win for a particular Show by watching the Show on the date it is aired for the particular market in which they reside. If the registrant is a potential winner, such potential winner (or his/her parent/legal guardian if he/she is a resident of a jurisdiction that deems him/her to be a minor) will then be notified by phone within approximately three (3) business days of the date he/she completed his/her Online SPIN ID Verification to complete an Affidavit/Release (described below in Section 8). If a potential winner cannot be reached after a reasonable effort has been exerted, if he/she is found to be ineligible, or if he/she cannot or does not comply with these Official Rules, such potential winner will be disqualified, and the prize will not be awarded.
6. Prizes/Odds of Winning. If the Show is playing teams, only a single version of the SPIN ID-designated prize will be awarded in the applicable Individual Sweepstakes for that particular Show. At no time will more than one (1) SPIN ID-designated prize be awarded in an Individual Sweepstakes for a given Show. There are two (2) types of prizes for this Sweepstakes. All Monday through Friday shows will award SPIN ID-designated cash prizes as described below. All Saturday shows will award SPIN ID-designated trip prizes as described below. There is the possibility that up to ninety-five (95) SPIN ID-designated cash prizes (up to five (5) SPIN ID-designated cash prizes for each of the nineteen (19) Show Weeks of the Show Period) will be awarded. The SPIN ID-designated cash prize will be $5,000 awarded in the form of a check. There is the possibility that up to nineteen (19) SPIN ID-designated trip prizes (up to one (1) SPIN ID-designated trip prizes for each of the nineteen (19) Show Weeks of the Show Period) will be awarded. The SPIN ID-designated trip prize awarded for a given Show when the Individual Sweepstakes is played will match the SPIN ID-designated prize featured on the Show, which is made a part of these Official Rules and incorporated herein by reference. SPIN ID-designated trip prizes can either be a single trip (or a single trip gift certificate), or a gift certificate/shopping spree, or cash (awarded in the form of a check), as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Approximate Retail Value ("ARV") of each SPIN ID-designated trip prize is between $5,000 and $15,000. Total ARV of all prizes is up to $760,000. Odds of winning a prize depend on the number of eligible registrations at the time of the Registration Deadline for that particular individual sweepstakes drawing. The number of SPIN ID-designated prizes awarded depends on the number of times the Sweepstakes is played and the number of Wheel Watchers Club members with SPIN ID numbers that were displayed on the Show complete the verification of their eligibility as described in Section 5 above. Travel-related prize conditions: The ARVs vary depending upon the point of departure, destination, fare fluctuation, and number of travelers allowed in the prize package - additional compensation will not be provided if value is less than the stated ARV. The ARVs are furnished by the travel prize suppliers. Sponsor reserves the right to award "as is" and to structure travel route in its sole discretion. If a Travel-related prize winner chooses to take more guests than allotted for the prize won, Sponsor is not responsible for arranging or booking such additional travel arrangements. If a prize allows for one or more guests and such winner chooses to travel alone, the remaining elements of the trip shall be awarded for a single traveler and constitute full satisfaction of said prize and additional compensation will not be provided. The destination awarded may not be exchanged for another destination.

In Sponsor’s sole discretion, air transportation may not be provided if a winner lives within 100 miles of the specified destination. Each trip must be completed within one (1) year from Show airdate, unless otherwise stated in the documents provided to winner by prize coordinator/supplier. Also, unless otherwise stated in the documents provided to winner by prize coordinator/supplier, trip reservations must be requested in writing at least twelve (12) weeks (sixteen (16) to twenty (20) weeks, if a cruise) prior to desired departure dates.

Once travel has been confirmed, any cancellation or change fees or restructuring of travel are the sole responsibility of such winner. For all trips including hotel accommodations, such winner must have/present at least one major credit card in good standing in order to check into room. Sponsor is not responsible if such winner does not have a major credit card in good standing available, and in such event winner shall not be entitled to the hotel accommodations portion of the prize. If event/excursion tickets are provided, such tickets are subject to availability and may not be available on travel dates selected by such winner. If meals are provided, alcohol is not included.

In the event that both a winner and his/her travel guest do not have a valid U.S. driver’s license, are under 25 years of age, or do not have at least one major credit card in good standing, then any applicable rental car component of a prize will be forfeited, and remaining elements of trip shall constitute full satisfaction of said prize. If a trip has a guest component, such winner and guest(s) must travel together on the same itinerary. If a component of a prize is not available during time of such winner’s trip for whatever reason (e.g., weather conditions, etc.), that portion of the prize will be forfeited, and no compensation will be awarded in lieu thereof.
