Sweeties Note: This is a really odd sweepstakes. It seems that if your birth month has passed since they started it last year that you can’t enter because those months have already been drawn. October to March birthdays are over so if you have a birthday during one of those months you can’t enter. However, if your birth month is coming up from June until September you can enter but only when the giveaways starts for that month. They show you on the main page when each will start. June starts on Feb 2nd, and so on.
Entry Limit: Upon completion of the registration process (first and last screens), you automatically will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes. You may also receive up to three (3) Sweepstakes entries for completing the short survey questions and one (1) Sweepstakes entry if you use the Facebook Connect functionality to connect to your Facebook wall. Each participant may receive up to five (5) entries during the Entry Period, through the above methods.

I don't find a registration screen…only "if you have missed this promotion, try again next year" or something????

I will update my post with this information.
Thanks,Wendy. My birthday is in October, so i am out of luck:)))
Wendy, it seems the entry period ended June 2009 for all birth dates,
but the promotion continues until May 2010, with the release each month of the birthday winners.
I may be wrong and I agree, the rules are VERY confusing….
Yeh, I'm confused. I will leave it up here though since it took me so long to write it up 🙂
It seems this has ended already. Just when I decided I was going to enter it.
