IMPORTANT : Read the fine print before applying for the sweepstakes! It is said that us Canadians value our privacy, how much are you willing to give up for a slim chance of winning? Taken from the official rules on newegg website :

Quote:
Privacy/Use of Personal Information: By participating in the Sweepstakes, each entrant (i) grants Sponsor the right to use his or her name, mailing address, telephone
number and email address (“Personal Information”) for the purposes of administering the
Sweepstakes, including but not limited to contacting and announcing winners of the Sweepstakes; and (ii) acknowledges that the Sponsor may disclose his or her Personal Information to third-party agents and service providers of Sponsor in connection with any of the activities listed in (i) above. By entering these Sweepstakes, each entrant further consents to Sponsor’s use of the entrant’s Personal Information to contact the entrant to promote draws and contests similar to the Sweepstakes, promote opportunities to subscribe to newsletters and notify entrant about related products or services. The Sponsor will use the entrant’s Personal Information only for identified purposes, and in a manner that is consistent with Sponsor’s privacy policy as posted on the Website.
Basically, you're leaving your door wide open for spam...

Yes but the spam will obviously be secret links to $25 Bloomfields!

I'd be happy with just the last prize. 50 bucks, it would pay the taxes on something nice.
