Any idea if we actually need to print the coupon if we can't go to the store?
Sorry if this is a silly question, but how do we know if we won if we cannot decode?
The rules say (see in red above): If you are an Instant winner and unable to visit a Stein Mart store during the Promotion Period, you will receive a win notification email following the conclusion of the Promotion Period.
I am not sure if that is each day or at the very end of the sweepstakes.
So, we don't actually need to print the page to be decoded? I would hate to win something and then be asked to produce the winning page if they ask for it…?
This is odd how they do it. I really am not completely sure. I posted the rules as they were written. I believe you get an email if you win or if you don't but am not sure if you get that the day you enter or after the promotion is over.
If you are going into the store I believe you need to print out what is on their site and take it in to get it decoded.
Thanks, Sweetie! I've played twice now in two days and didn't receive an e-mail either time, so it looks like we'll just have to wait. 😉
I received a winning e-mail notice today – I never went into the store with a print-out. Congratulations! You have been selected to receive a prize in the Stein Mart Easy Living Sweepstakes, administered by ePrize.
You have been selected as the winner of a $50 Panache Gift Card!
Congrats Alison! I also received the same email :)! Nice surprise, huh :)!?!?!
I don’t remember ever receiving an email about winning but I received a $25.00 gift card in the mail today for Steinmart.
