(i) go to http://www.itpaystoeatpasta.com or through the "It Pays to Eat Pasta®" Sweepstakes tab on the Ronzoni Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/ronzoni.pasta (you must first "like" the page); then follow the directions to complete and submit the official entry form by providing your first and last name, complete mailing address, e-mail address, date of birth and tell us why "It pays to eat pasta" in 100 characters or less and your brand of choice. The official entry form and statement will collectively be referred to herein as the "Entry". Limit one (1) Entry per person, per household and per e-mail address per day via this method. Entries received from any person, household or e-mail address in excess of the stated limitation via this method will be void. Up to thirty (30) additional Sweepstakes entries may be received by referring friends to enter the Sweepstakes as follows: After successfully submitting your Entry submission, forward the unique URL provided on the "Thank You" web page to friends. For each valid participant who enters the Sweepstakes online via the unique URL you forwarded, you will earn one (1) additional entry into the Sweepstakes (up to a maximum of thirty (30) additional entries). Submission of erroneous or incomplete personal information will void the submitted Entry. Entries must be in English, consistent with the image of Sponsor, cannot be previously published or submitted in connection with any other promotion, and must not defame or invade publicity rights or privacy of any person, living or deceased, or otherwise infringe upon any person's personal or property rights or any other third party rights. Sponsor reserves the right to reject any Entry, in its sole and absolute discretion, on the basis that a submitted Entry is offensive or is not in keeping with the Sponsor's image and reputation. Sponsor reserves the right to remove any Entry without prior notice. Online entries must be received by 11:59 AM ET September 17, 2012 to be eligible.
