Kicking Off Holiday Shopping with the 2011 Chevy Haul!

November 21, 2011 6:08 pm CT

Around Thanksgiving, the hard work doesn’t stop after a day of cooking up a delicious meal to serve to family and friends. Here at DrivingtheHeartland.com, we know that ladies everywhere hit the streets the following weekend to grab their holiday haul of toys, clothes and other gifts for the ones they love. With Black Friday also being the biggest shopping day of the year, the days after Thanksgiving can be one hectic event, and it can easily leave one feeling exhausted and overwhelmed.

So, what better way to ease some of that holiday shopping stress than by taking a brand new Chevy for a spin to get all of your shopping done in comfort and style? This year, Chevrolet will be giving five fabulous bloggers a Chevy vehicle to drive while they take on their holiday shopping throughout the Heartland. Three bloggers from Texas and two bloggers from St. Louis, Missouri, will be riding comfortably in Chevy cars and crossovers in the next few weeks, and you can follow along as they navigate the madness on Twitter using the hashtag #ChevyHaul.

We’ve also provided handheld video cameras for each of our bloggers to document their haul, so look forward to a personalized haul video from each blogger discussing all their holiday purchases! You might even get some great gift ideas from our very creative and talented participants:
