This Mother’s Day, Dockers (Facebook | Twitter) is challenging dads, moms, and kids across the country to Wear The Pants and perform acts of chivalry. Dockers wants men and women to take a few extra minutes to open a door, offer directions, help carry luggage, hail a cab, or say Happy Mother’s Day to a mom you don’t know (and don’t forget about your own mom). To kick off Dockers 10,000 Acts of Chivalry, they are going to give away a pair of Dockers to five lucky readers of my dad blog.

[Disclosure: The prizes will be provided by Dockers, but Dockers is not a sponsor or administrator of this giveaway on my dad blog. I did not receive a pair of Dockers or any other compensation for writing this post or hosting the giveaway on my dad blog.]

    I had won a great prize of an Xtrema skillet; as I had just won both Farberware and le Creuset cookware, and I knew my mother really wanted the Xtrema skillet, I asked that the prize be sent to her address, and then told her that when she got something on her doorstep that was addressed to me, it was really for her!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    My mom had to move into a much smaller place and I went through all her stuff and held a garage sale so that she could move. We ended up making her 700 bucks from that one garage sale. I added 300 to it so that she could get a computer for her new place. She was in heaven. She had tons of room and a new computer!
