You buy chocolates, you're registered to win 52 pairs of Manolo Blahnik shoes...unless your Canadian, then there's this catch (last sentence):




I know it takes a certain amount of skill to balance on 5 inch stilletos, but I'm not entirely sure how your math knowledge lends itself to that...There's probably a perfectly rational explaination, but I can't even begin to fathom what that might be. :wtf: :shrug:

1. If they answer correctly, it proves they're Canadian...

...or, more precisely, NOT American. :dunce:

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. I bet that's it! Just to make sure they aren't Americans in disguise

:7

2. Legal technicality

for the kind of contest it is.

You have to answer a 'skill-testing' question.

It's on all our contests.

A lottery is different and doesn't have one.

4. Those silly Canadaians.

:silly:

5. It is the law

It is a requirement of any contest, but not a sweepstakes.
