There is a prize draw for the lottery, i am not sure if it can be posted on MSE as it's not free entry

There will be a weekly draw with 10 prizes of £20,000 in April and May, but in June there will be one huge prize of £1 million

https://lottopromo.national-lottery.co.uk

I am confused about the T&C

1) Do you buy one ticket and that is entered into the draw every single week until it ends in June?

Or

2) You can buy a ticket every week and enter into that week prize draw?

Or

3) Enter as many tickets as you want to buy and enter them weekly?

Thank you

Free Entry Route - Persons resident in Northern Ireland or the Isle of Man, that satisfy the eligibility criteria in paragraph 1 above can register for a chance to participate in the Promotion without the need to purchase a Ticket. They can enter, during the Entry Period, by visiting the Site, following the instructions and entering their personal details (including their postcode and telephone number). Free entry is limited to one entry per person across the Entry Period (not one entry for each Promotion Draw) and you will be entered into the next Promotion Draw after your free entry.

    You ticket/s get you into whatever draws they are valid for (from an e-mail exchange I had with them)
    Each Lotto line you play gives you a chance. You only need to enter the details of a ticket once and we’ll make sure you’re in all the extra chance draws for the duration of that ticket.

    Spend limit is £2.10 --- a lottery ticket is £2, so no reason it can't be posted [STRIKE]as you only need to buy 1 ticket[/STRIKE] as there is a FREE entry for NI & IOW residents


    EDIT..... Looks like you need to buy 2 tickets as it says Wednesday & Saturday (not or) ..... but there is still a free entry for NI or IOM

    Promotion Draw 1 on Monday 11th April 2016. All entries must be received by midnight on Sunday 10th April 2016. Entrants must purchase a Lotto Ticket for the National Lottery Lotto draws taking place on Wednesday 6th & Saturday 9th April 2016).

    Another example of sloppy terms - a ticket for a wed or sat gets you an entry a ticket for both gets you 2 entries.


    The final draw is a bit clearer

    Promotion Draw 9 on Monday 4th July 2016: All entries must be received by midnight on Sunday 3rd July 2016. Entrants must purchase a Lotto Ticket for any of the National Lottery Lotto draws taking place from Wednesday 1st June to Wednesday 29th June 2016)

    Yes, you need a ticket for a wed and/or sat for the following Monday draw - if you have a ticket valid for several weeks you only need to enter it once to be entered for all the weeks the ticket is valid for.
