Since there will be two hats created, one male and one female, there will be individual prizes given out for each chosen product. The winner recieves 25,000 credits, gave their item be given out during GIFTEMBER, as well as promotion benefits in our messaging and designs across the site. Second place gets 10,000 while third place gets 5,000 credits!
