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.

This holiday season will be special. I and my husband Cassiano have moved to Canada in 2017, and had our first baby in Dec. 2018. This year was pretty challenging taking care of a newborn without any family around to help, but we are happy and excited about going back to Brazil to spend the holidays with our family! They will meet our son for the very first time, and we will celebrate his 1-year birthday with our loved family and friends!

Looking forward to speaking with people I don't usually speak with throughout the year due to life changes. Family gatherings, shopping for loved ones and self and good food!

The time between Christmas and New Years when everyone mellows. No expectations - just cozy afternoons, hanging out with friends and family, eating good food and playing in the snow!

Honestly, Nothing. Nothing at all

I love this holiday because family comes home that I don't get too see throughout the year, which mainly includes my almost 3 yr old grand-daughter (she will be 3 on the 8th of December... Besides her, I love the snow and love going around and seeing all the Christmas decorations and lights on the houses.

My favourite part about the holiday season is spending time with family and getting time off university after finishing exams.
12-04-2019 09:14 PM
Turkey dinner. Twice at least. That's my favorite.
12-04-2019 09:13 PM
My favourite part of the holiday is to spend time with my kids as they will be on holidays soon. Take them to fun places around my city Halifax. Places like the Museum, Parks etc. Take them to cosy eateries, shop around with them for christmas gifts for our loved ones and family.
For me, this holiday period will be a time for me to reconnect with some of my friends i have not seen in a long while.
In addition to taking my kids out for shopping and having fun, i will also take them to available shows to see Santa claus and have fun. My wife will not also be left out from the groove. It will be a family thing.
12-04-2019 09:12 PM
Our son is 6 years old and the excitement, magic and wonder he experiences throughout the month of December is by far my favourite part.
