NEW GIVEAWAY – 6 WINNERS, $105 IN GIFT CARDS AND OVER $300 IN COUPONS

We are pleased to announce a very special giveaway opportunity!!  This giveaway is sponsored by Jiffy Lube and its Maintenance Partners for Life campaign – a program that raises funds and awareness for the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women Movement.  Here’s some information to let you know just how important this amazing campaign is to women all over the world!!

Nearly 2,400 Americans die of cardiovascular disease each day – an average death of one every 37 seconds, according to the AHA.  The Maintenance Partners for Life campaign emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy heart and a healthy vehicle, and seeks to raise $1 million to help fight heart disease.  Customers at participating Jiffy Lube service centers across the U.S. can support this cause with a donation of $3, receiving in return a Jiffy Lube Maintenance Partners for Life savings book containing heart-healthy recipes, as well as $100 in savings from Jiffy Lube.  100% of the funds will benefit local AHA chapters in the communities in which they funds are raised.  People can also donate online at www.JiffyLubeGoesRed.com.  Jiffy Lube has raised $2.3 million for the cause since 2008.

This giveaway helps spread the word about this important cause and lets you know about their valuable campaign while giving our winners six amazing gifts!!

• Jiffy Lube and Maintenance Partners for Life have provided three $35 gift cards to Jiffy Lube (at least 1 FREE oil change and more – especially if you use coupons!)
