What the ten winners receive
Best Buy will select ten winners, with each winner receiving $1,000 in My Best Buy promotional certificates. The award comes as ten $100 certificates rather than cash.
The certificates can be used under the My Best Buy promotional-certificate terms, so check the expiration and redemption restrictions before planning a purchase around the prize.
The easiest way to enter
If you already have a My Best Buy, My Best Buy Plus or My Best Buy Total membership, the online route is the simplest. Sign in through the official sweepstakes page and submit your entry.
Membership level affects the number of online entries credited per day, but the overall cap is four entries per person per day. The rules also provide a handwritten mail-in route for people who are not members.
Who should check eligibility first
The promotion is open in the 50 United States, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico to people who are at least 18 and have reached the age of majority where they live.
One easy-to-miss restriction: anyone who won a Best Buy-sponsored sweepstakes during the previous six months is not eligible for this one.
Dates and entry limits
Entries are open from August 2 through October 31, 2026. Mail-in entries have separate postmark and receipt deadlines listed in the official rules.
