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!

My fondest Christmas experience is preparing and sharing many, many food dishes with my family.
The three children my husband and I raised are all young adults attending university and live in a different city now.
It gives me great joy to see them enjoying some of the specific foods that I first cooked for them when they were very young children.
Their joyous reaction to once again eating some favorite dishes fills me with happiness and love.

My reason why christmas is my favourite time of year is because i live on the opposite side of the country and dont get to see them untill christmas. All of them. At once. Its the best feeling in the world

What I look forward to is taking a couple of weeks off and spending time with family and friends. I also like checking out the sales.

The best part of Christmas is seeing my family members interacting.
My wife and I recently became empty nesters as the last of our three children finished high school and moved away to attend university.
Christmas allows my wife and I to spend time with our kids and with my 82 year old mother.
It also lets our children spend time with their grandmother and share stories while creating memories.

Watching the snow falling on the ground is the most marvelous thing on the winter Holiday time!
12-09-2019 07:49 AM
