HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
This Sweepstakes is sponsored by DFS Services LLC, 2500 Lake Cook Rd. Riverwoods, IL 60015 (the "Sponsor"). A total of 27,375 daily prizes will be awarded (75 per day for 365 days) plus a final Grand Prize of 1 Million Dollars.
Beginning 1/1/10 through 12/31/10 ("Sweepstakes Period"), you will automatically receive one entry into a sweepstakes daily random drawing and into the Grand Prize random drawing each time you use your Discover Card to make a purchase or take a cash advance, either by using a check, an ATM, or at a financial institution, a casino or online ("Transaction"). Transactions must post to your account during the Sweepstakes Period. Sponsor is not responsible for any merchant delays in processing Transactions which may cause a Transaction to post after the Sweepstakes Period. Balance transfers are excluded from automatic entry. Transactions made with lost or stolen cards or card numbers do not qualify for entry. If you do not already have a Discover Card, go to discovercard.com/credit-cards/ for card application information. As a new cardmember, it may take up to 40 days to receive a new Discover Card. There is no cost associated with applying for or receiving a Discover Card. As used in the Official rules, "Discover Card" means a credit card product issued by Discover Bank; it does not include credit card products issued by any other entities.

A million dollars just for spending with your Discover card. That would just about clear my balance LOL. Kidding, kidding! Thanks, micharch.
It's a pleasant change to get something back from the credit card company instead of them taking! Thanks for the information. :)


Very nice of them! Thanks for letting us know, micharch. :)
