1,500 entries into the sweepstakes? What the hell does that mean?

1,500 entries into the sweepstakes? What the hell does that mean?

It's maximum 1,500 entries per transaction, not sweepstakes. You get 2 entries for every $ spent on eligible transactions. So let's say you spend $1K on something; it will only give you entries on $750 of the $1K spend (2x 750 = 1,500). Hope that clarifies.

Cheers.
