Win a Sears Gift Card and See How Sears is Surprising Families #RockTheHalls

The new trends, new fashions, new colours, can be both exciting and overwhelming when shopping back to school. For all children, especially my daughter how she dresses plays an important role in expressing her personality, style, and individuality. I like that Sears carries a variety of top quality brands at reasonable prices. They have a wide selection of styles that children will enjoy wearing.
This year, throughout the month of August, Sears Canada (The Kids Room) has been, helping families with school-aged children get ready for back-to-school so they can Rock the Halls. They have been surprising families in-store and online all over the country, by providing their purchases to them for free. Check out this video to see what is happening in the stores. Sears Canada will also be rewarding their Facebook fans by surprising them throughout the month of August with opportunities to win a $100 Sears gift card.
I think giving back is important, regardless of the time of year. It is amazing how schools get students involved in giving back through programs such as Jump Rope for Heart, Terry Fox Run, and Food Drives. I think as parents we should always encourage our children to give back to their community, either locally or across borders. Even before school starts when I go through their closets I put away the clothing that are in good quality and have become small by giving it to friends, family or community clothing banks. This way I know the money I spent on quality clothing is not going to be wasted.

Sears Canada has been a proud supporter for over 40 years of Boys and Girls Club across Canada. Boys and Girls Club is Canada’s leading provider of quality after school programs that support the healthy physical, educational, social and mental development of Canadian children and youth. Sears shares Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada’s philosophy that providing all Canadian children and youth with access to opportunity is essential to helping them achieve their full potential and create a better future. To help out with this year’s back-to-school season, Sears Canada and Converse will be providing the Boys and Girls Club with $10,000 worth of back to school apparel.

Giveaway:
Win a $100 Sears gift card before August 27th. This giveaway is open to everyone in Canada (excluding QC). You may enter to win across multiple blogs, but can only win on one. You can expect to receive their prize 4-6 weeks after the contest closes. 
Update: The winner is Laurie
