5. How to enter
During the Giveaway Period, visit the Giveaway page and:
- Follow @valleyfoodscatering on Instagram; and
- Complete the entry form with your name, email address and Instagram username, and submit it. Submitting the form means you agree to these Official Rules.
Limit: one (1) entry per person, per email address and per Instagram account. Entries that use more than one email address or Instagram account, false or someone else’s information, or scripts, bots or other automated means will be disqualified.
Google reviews are optional. The Giveaway page includes a link to leave a Google review of Valley Foods. Leaving a review is not required to enter, is not an entry method, and has no effect on eligibility or on the chance of winning. Sponsor does not ask for positive reviews or any particular rating. If you choose to leave a review, it must reflect your own honest experience.
6. Prizes
Two (2) prizes will be awarded. Each prize is one $50 Valley Foods gift card. Total approximate retail value of all prizes: $100. Gift cards are redeemable at Valley Foods, 1275 E Main St, El Cajon, CA 92021, and are subject to the terms printed on or provided with the card. Prizes have no cash value, are not transferable and may not be substituted, except that Sponsor may substitute a prize of equal or greater value if necessary. Limit one prize per person and per household.
7. How winners are selected
Within 3 days after the Giveaway Period ends (on or before October 29, 2026), Sponsor will select two potential winners in a random drawing from all eligible entries received. The drawing is performed by a computer-based random selection, and a record of each drawing is kept. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received.
Winners are chosen only at random. Selection is never based on reviews, number of followers, purchases, relationship with Sponsor or any other personal choice.
Each drawing is recorded with the list of eligible entries, a fingerprint of that list and the random seed used, so the result can be independently re-checked.
8. Winner verification and notification
Potential winners will be notified by email at the address provided on the entry form. Sponsor may also send a direct message from the official @valleyfoodscatering Instagram account. Sponsor will never ask a winner for payment, passwords or bank details.
Before a prize is awarded, Sponsor will confirm that the potential winner follows @valleyfoodscatering on Instagram and meets all eligibility requirements, and may ask for proof of age and residence. A potential winner must reply within 7 days of the first notification attempt. If a potential winner cannot be reached, does not reply in time, is found ineligible or does not comply with these rules, the prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner will be drawn at random from the remaining eligible entries.
By accepting a prize, winners agree that their first name and last initial may be shown on the Giveaway page and on Sponsor’s social media, except where prohibited by law.
9. Disqualification
Sponsor may disqualify any entry or person that: enters more than once; uses fake, duplicate or third-party accounts or information; uses automated software, bots or scripts; tampers with the entry process or the operation of the Giveaway; or otherwise violates these Official Rules. Entries may be held for review when they show signs of duplicate or automated entry.
