My husband told me about this one, his company was just bought by ADT so we cannot enter. I know this is a lot of information, but unlike Mr. Sweepy, I could not condense what I thought would be important to know before you enter the sweepstakes. Also I did put the link in at the bottom for the complete rules. Good Luck to all that can enter!
