How to Enter: During the Promotion Period, visit http://rewards.xbox.com/rush-for-gold and follow the links and instructions to complete and submit the registration form including a valid home address. P.O. Boxes are not permitted. If you are an Xbox LIVE Rewards member, you automatically will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes by completing the online registration. If you are not already an Xbox LIVE Rewards member follow the links and instructions to become a member (membership is free) in order to get your Sweepstakes entry. Once you are an Xbox LIVE Rewards member, you can earn additional Sweepstakes entries with the following actions:

A. Purchase an Xbox LIVE Gold subscription(s): Renew or purchase an Xbox LIVE Gold subscription (or set your Gold account to auto-renew) to gain Sweepstakes entries as outlined in the chart below.

By default, when you purchase a LIVE Gold subscription, auto renewal will be set to "on." If you have previously turned auto renewal off and would like to turn it on again, you can either purchase or add LIVE time to your account or contact Support via http://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us and ask for it to be turned on again. You can purchase, redeem or renew as many Xbox LIVE Gold subscriptions as you would like.

Then hand print your name, email address for your Xbox LIVE Account, and Gamertag on a 3" x 5" piece of paper and mail it in an envelope with proper postage to "Xbox LIVE Rewards Rush for Gold Sweepstakes" c/o Microsoft Corporation, to PO BOX 5046, Kalamazoo, MI 49003-5046.

All mail-in entries must be handwritten and must be postmarked by June 30, 2012 and received by July 16, 2012. All entries become the exclusive property of Sponsor and none will be acknowledged or returned. Proof of sending or submission will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by Sponsor. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, illegible, misdirected or postage-due entries, which will be disqualified.
