I reached out to OHLQ to find out details of the lottery... specifically if entering more than one location increases your odds and how many bottles of each were available... this is what I received back...

Hi Mark,

 

Customers can enter for any and all products at every location; however, if chosen, you must pick up the bottle at that winning location.  

 

Thanks,

Kristen

In the end, I have no idea how many bottles are available or what the actual lottery rules are. I guess if you have the means, you should probably select every store to possibly increase your odds? 

Anyway, you can enter at this site starting Monday (8:00 a.m. on October 24) and ending at 8:00 p.m. on October 28th. In order to enter, you'll need to provide the following:

Entrants must be an Ohio resident 21 years or older and the following is required:

• Ohio Driver’s License Number / Ohio Identification Card Number
• First Name
• Last Name
• Street Address
• Date of Birth
• Email Address
• Preferred OHLQ store location for purchasing the product if you win

If you didn't see the link above (not sure why it isn't showing up clearly), CLICK HERE FOR THE OHLQ SITE to enter.

Good luck everyone and I hope my readers win all the bottles!

The lottery will begin at 8:00 a.m. on October 24 and end at 8:00 p.m. on October 28th. Bottles may only be picked up from a select set of 16 stores (details below).
