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!

This Christmas season will be extra special. I'll have my adult children, my grandchildren, plus three other persons who would otherwise be all alone on Christmas with no family. It will be practicing the true meaning of Christmas!

I love the merriment of people and the joy this holiday brings. Receiving gifts and treats to enjoy. The food! The drinks! Opening presents and being with your friends and family. The atmosphere, the lights, everything!!

My favourite part about the holidays is the feel of a frozen ski boot, slowly but surely warming to my tender foot as I watch the light from sun begin to rise over the mountains. The feeling of being so ridiculously cold after spending a night out in a winter camp, that you can't remember what warm feels like, but knowing that it was worth it for the fresh, fluffy turns under the full moon you got in last night. It's looking at your loved one as that light continues to blanket the snowy peaks (and his face) with a hot coffe (and baileys of course) in your hands. Your whole world fills with pink and purple and orange. It's that feeling of being of being so full of love and wonder for this wintery world and the people that you are able share it with, that feeling of everything being right and good and open and free.
It's the feeling of the frozen tent being crunched into a back pack, the sticky skins being peeled off your skis and the last buckle being snapped on your frozen boot.
It's the race of Adrenalin as you look at the person you love the most in the world give you nod, and know you are about to warm up.
What I love most about the holidays is the time spent with my most favourite person in the world, skiing in the backcountry.
