Western Union Returning the Love – $50 Giveaway 5 Winners!
This Mother’s Day, Western Union is celebrating mothers with its Return the Love campaign. The campaign is focused on reminding all of us of the countless acts of love mom has showered us throughout our lives. Although we all have good intentions of getting mom something she wants for mother’s day, a Western Union survey revealed that more than 40% of moms pretend to like their gifts. (Yikes!)
To help make sure mom’s gift is exactly what she needs, Western Union has introduced the Western Union prepaid gift card. For a $5 fee (plus the cost of the gift card), you can purchase a gift card with amounts up to $100, a customizable printed greeting card, a personalized voice message and first class shipping. Convenient for the giver, yes. Something mom can always use and will never return, yes. Win-win!
As part of the Return the Love campaign, Western Union teamed up with Wyclef Jean and Paulina Rubio for a special concert honoring military moms. Western Union is also hosting a Flickr® page (flickr.com/groups/love2010) where consumers can share photos of their moms. Each week, Western Union will select photos from this gallery to display on the company’s home page, www.westernunion.com.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could win a $50 gift card from Western Union? You can. Western Union has generously provided 5 $50 gift cards for TheSuburbanMom to giveaway. Yes, you read that right, TheSuburbanMom will be awarding 5 winners $50 gift cards (to be used anywhere).

Sounds awful but a full day of alone time in my own house. I rarely get to be by myself in my own home. I cherish the times when I can.
Let me sleep in late. I’m just not a morning person. Then out to breakfast at my favorite restaurant.
All I really wanted for mother’s day was for my family to acknowledge that I work my butt off to be a great mother and for them to maybe wash the dishes or vacuum, or anything! Seriously I’m too easy!
