Definitely the time off from work! This allows me to spend time with loved ones and family since everyone is usually available at this time around as well!

 

On a side note: does the free 1GB data that was given out for this generous event apply for roaming as well, or strictly domestic?

The best part is that everyone is always in a good mood leading up to Christmas. I feel less guilty spending money, I can be lazy and sleep in on Christmas day, celebrate Jesus' birth and then spend time with family and friends throughout the holiday season.
