- I am under 16. Can I still enter?
- Yes. But if you are under 16 on on the date of entry then you’ll have to get a parent or guardian to sign a Parental/Legal Guardian consent form for you. This is a legal requirement to say that they agree to you entering the competition and that you agree to stick to the rules of the competition. Unfortunately, if you are under 16 and are not able to provide authorisation your entry will be disqualified. Download Parental/Legal Guardian Consent Form.

If the winner has not responded after 3 emails, they weill forfeit their £1,000 prize and it will be given to a different contestant.
- Is anyone making sure that the ratings are above board?
- Yes. PepsiCo will keep an eye the number of ratings and the activity on the Website.

PepsiCo’s decisions are final.
