Hey Community,
Here at Public Mobile, we love the holiday season. It’s the perfect time of year to spend time with loved ones and share gifts with the people you appreciate. This holiday season, we want to show you how much we appreciate you.
On top of the free data and international calling you can get during our 3 weeks of giving (see that Community post here), we’re giving away a whole lot of Amazon gift cards!
I’m intrigued… what could I win?
One of a whole lot of Amazon gift cards - 160 to be exact.
Cha-ching! How do I get in on this contest?
Let us know in a comment below... what is your favourite part about the holiday season? Do you look forward to seeing loved ones, bundling up for outdoor winter fun, giving (or getting) gifts, or doing nothing at all? We want to hear what makes this time of the year special for you. Once you comment, you’ll be entered into a random draw to win one of our prizes.
When and how will I know if I won?
Make sure to enter before December 25th 11:59PM ET for your chance to win. All the winners will be selected and contacted via private message the week of January 7th 2020. This Community post will also be updated with a list of the winners. A little way to start your year off right.
Happy Holidays! We can’t wait to hear from you!

Working with the local Kinsman Club toy drive to deliver 'secret santa' gifts for under priviledged kids is the best part as it takes me back to being a kid. We never needed to wonder if Santa was coming when I was young and I feel that every kid should have that same feeling. Sometimes the homes we go to are enough to make you cry... alcoholics, drug users, and some parents don't even get the kids away from the door when we drop off, but in the end, it's about making sure every kid gets a memory.
If you can - please donate money, non perishable food items, a gift, or your time to help make Christmas a little warmer in the hearts of those in need in your community.
