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.

I really missed my parents who are not in Canada during holiday season. While, I have no chance to see them for any possibility. Therefore, I am very appreciated that Public Mobile gave me a chance for free international calling. Thank you so much and hope the business of PM will have a even brighter future which benefits not only the company but also customs like me:)
Again, love you PM which makes my holiday sweet when having a chance to talk to my parents anytime !

Going out before everyone is up on Christmas morning to feed the goats, horses and alpacas. It's dark and quiet and usually snowy! It's a magical time and I know that when I come back into the house my husband will have the woodstove blazing, the coffee on and the Christmas tree lit up.
