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!

Family get-together, the No.1 for me!!!

My absolute favorite part of the holidays is to spend more time with my friends in Downtown Eastside, as part of the Willgo Ministry, with Johnny 5, a homeless man, who longs to speak to us, shaking hands with us with the warmest hand and enjoying his sandwich. He actually prayed for the four of us. I get my inspiration from him who shows us the true meaning of Christmas, when we can share our love and stories with one another. This is really my favorite time of year filled with peace, joy and tranquility.

This is my favourite time of year because I get to spend time my family and I enjoy watching my five year old grandson get excited about presents and activities that we do. This year we made cookies and decorated our own stockings. They grow up so fast and he is soooo special that I just love seeing him having fun and experiencing it all for the first time.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!!

To Me the Best part of the holidays for me is the happyness and unconditional love that seems to be almost contagious this time of the year , it's about the new, old, traditions. And family being together no matter what !

The best part of holiday season form me is to have some time off from work to be with family.
‎12-20-2019 07:17 PM
One of my favourites was the big get together with most of my Uncles, Aunts and Cousins at my Grandparents Christmas Eve after the Christmas Eve service at Church.
Lots of presents, lots of laughter and way too much good food!!

My favourite part of the holiday: being able to sit in the living room and not having to go anywhere, or do anything, for 3 days. Sleep in a bit later? Sure. Spend a bit of extra time cooking up a junky, decadent breakfast without having to worry about how it'll make me feel by lunch? Hell yes. Being able to decide if I want to get involved in the holiday shopping chaos (I don't), or just stay at home and watch Christmas movie and TV specials back-to-back? Not a tough choice.
It makes me feel like a kid again.

My favorite part of the holidays is the opportunity to bond with my daughter by fufilling her request to build her a custom design gingerbread house. She has always wanted a special gingerbread house which we can't buy from the store but something that she will love and be proud of. This is the only time of the year that I can have some holidays and not to touch any work from the office and to focus an entire week on designing and building her gingerbread house on the lake complete with lights and trees. I am so grateful for this bonding experience even though it is turning into a monumental project but I am loving every minute of it! Merry Christmas! Peace on earth and good will to men (women)!
