Kellogg’s Shutterfly Gift Card Sweepstakes: Win $500

WK Kellogg Co is giving away Shutterfly gift cards: 5 Grand Prizes of $500 and 300 Secondary Prizes of $100. The official rules put the total ARV at $32,500. The catch is the main entry route. You buy a participating Kellogg's cereal and upload a photo of the receipt. A free entry exists, but only by mail. Your entry period ends at 11:59:59 PM ET on 12/31/2026. The later date of 01/06/2027 is only the deadline for uploads and mail to arrive.

Two ways in, and only one is free

The rules call the paid route Purchase Entry. Buy one participating product during the promotion period:

• Kellogg's Cocoa Krispies, 12.6 oz. or 19 oz.
• Kellogg's Corn Flakes, 9.6 oz., 12 oz., 18 oz. or 24 oz.
• Kellogg's Crispix, 9.6 oz., 12 oz. or 18 oz.
• Kellogg's Rice Krispies, 9 oz., 12 oz., 18 oz. or 24 oz.

Take a photo of the whole receipt, top to bottom with all 4 corners. Store name, purchase date, items and prices must be readable. Then upload it on the promotion website. Blurry images are rejected. The rules say entering this way does not improve your chances.

The free route is the Mail-in Entry. Hand-print in ink on a 3" x 5" piece of paper. Write your full name, complete address and zip code, email address, daytime phone number with area code, and your age. Mail it in an envelope with enough postage to Fun In The Making Sweepstakes, Attn: Entry, P.O. Box 5121, Kalamazoo, MI 49003-5121. Each outer envelope carries one entry. Copies are not accepted.

Why 12/31/2026 and 01/06/2027 both matter

The promotion period runs from 12:00:00 AM ET on 09/15/2026 to 11:59:59 PM ET on 12/31/2026, for every entry method. That is the real end. Your cereal purchase must fall inside that window, and a mailed entry must be postmarked by 12/31/2026.

The 01/06/2027 date is extra time for delivery, not extra time to enter. Receipt uploads must be finished by 11:59:59 PM ET on 01/06/2027, and mailed entries must be received by that day. A box bought after 12/31/2026 does not count. A listing that shows 01/06/2027 as the end date is quoting the upload and mail deadline.

You can enter up to 5 times per person per day, with a cap of 25 entries for the whole period. The cap counts all methods together. A day runs from 12:00:00 AM to 11:59:59 PM ET. Using several email addresses or identities voids all your entries, and automated entry is prohibited.

Gift cards plus a photo book code

Each Grand Prize is one $500 Shutterfly Gift Card, and each Secondary Prize is one $100 Shutterfly Gift Card. Gift cards follow their own terms of use. You get no cash equivalent and cannot transfer a prize, though the sponsor may substitute one of equal or greater value. One person can win only one prize.

Every eligible entrant who submits an entry also receives one free 8"x8" Shutterfly Photo Book with 20 standard pages, as selected by Shutterfly, LLC. It comes as a code. You need a Shutterfly account to redeem it, and shipping is not included. The limit is one photo book per person. The rules add that Shutterfly, LLC does not sponsor or administer the sweepstakes.

The promotion page advertises only the $500 card. Its official rules also list the 300 cards of $100, so this page follows the rules.

Winners have 5 days to answer

The sweepstakes is open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are 18 or older at the time of entry. Employees of WK Kellogg Co and Shutterfly, LLC, their immediate families and household members are excluded. It is void where prohibited.

Winners are drawn at random on or about 01/08/2027. The odds depend on the total number of eligible entries from all methods combined. Notice comes by email, phone or mail. If you do not respond within 5 calendar days of the first attempt, you forfeit the prize. The sponsor will then try up to 2 alternates, and after that a prize may go unawarded.

All federal, state and local taxes on a prize fall on the winner. The official rules do not mention an affidavit or a tax form. Accepting a prize lets the sponsor use your name, photo and likeness for advertising where the law allows. For the winners list, send a self-addressed, stamped #10 envelope by 03/20/2027 to P.O. Box 7999, Kalamazoo, MI 49003-7999. The list is available after 01/20/2027.

This one makes sense if you already buy these cereals, since the receipt costs you nothing extra. If you do not, the mail-in route costs a stamp and an envelope. Check the official rules for the final word.
