General rules

8. Any ballot that is damaged, obtained from a non-authorized source, fraudulent, copied by hand or mechanically reproduced shall automatically be rejected.

9. The prize must be accepted as awarded, and may not be substituted (except in the case described in Article 11), redeemed for cash or transferred. All other fees or expenses other than those included in the prize, as specified above, shall be incurred by the winner. The winner has 48 hours to claim the prize.

10. All charges exceeding the prize value shall be the responsibility of the gift certificate holder. Cancellation of the reservation, regardless of the reason, results in the automatic cancellation of the gift certificate. The reservation is subject to room availability. The number of rooms allocated to gift certificates is limited. Lack of room availability is, therefore, possible, regardless of whether or not the inn posts a No Vacancy sign. No extensions shall be granted. This also applies to the attractions.

11. If, for one reason or another, at the time of the reservation request by the winner, the selected establishment is no longer in operation, Tourism Eastern Townships will replace the gift certificate by one from another participating establishment of equal value.
