Sears Canada and SavvyMom Media Get Together for Moms

Sears Canada gets the SavvyMom Seal of Approval

TORONTO, April 2, 2012 /CNW/ - Sears Canada and SavvyMom Media are pleased to announce a strategic partnership beginning April 1, 2012.

The partnership will launch with a co-branded contest hosted on the Savvymom.ca website offering a chance to win a $500 shopping spree at Sears, and it will be followed by two more contests throughout the year. The SavvyMom editorial team will also select and feature weekly picks from the Kids Room, the  children's department at Sears - their top choices of gear and clothing for babies and kids. The editor's choice items, as well as some SavvyMom tips, will be featured on savvymom.ca as well as Sears.ca.

"Sears recognizes the strength of the SavvyMom brand in content curation, especially when it comes to shopping," said Minnow Hamilton, Managing Editor and co-founder of SavvyMom.ca . "We're the trusted brand for moms in Canada when they want to know what to buy for their families, and now they'll know they can buy what they need at Sears. While Sears gets the SavvyMom seal of approval, SavvyMom benefits from the exposure Sears Canada can provide to their wide consumer audience."
