Kmart<\/a> is known for its cult following, but there’s no denying that Aussies across the country also visit Big W to snap up affordable fashion and homewares<\/a>. But this weekend, the retailer is flipping the script \u2014 and it\u2019s all about treating mums.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Big W will be giving away thousands of free gifts from its new Autumn\/Winter collection. ‘Treat Trucks’ will be rolling out to select locations in Sydney to offer Aussie mums a range of presents, including handbags, earrings, jewellery boxes, tea cups and scented candles.<\/p>\n

What if you’re not in Sydney?<\/p>\n

Don’t worry \u2014 Big W stores nationwide will also be surprising more than 2,500 lucky mums with selected free gifts in-store.<\/p>\n

Any adult can collect a treat on behalf of a mum or caregiver.<\/p>\n

The initiative comes after new research commissioned by Big W found Aussie mums are four times less likely to treat themselves than their kids, with one in five (22 per cent) admitting they rarely treat themselves at all.<\/p>\n

Even more telling? Almost 70 per cent say they feel guilty when they do.<\/p>\n

Where can I collect free gifts from Big W?<\/p>\n

The ‘Treat Truck’ roamed around Sydney’s inner west on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

But will be stopping at the following locations on Saturday, February 21:<\/p>\n

Luna Park Sydney: 10am\u20131pm<\/p>\n

Centennial Park: 3pm\u20134:30pm<\/p>\n

At Luna Park, mums can also get a first look at pieces from the new Autumn\/Winter collection and stop for a chat with style ambassador and former MAFS contestant, Jules Robinson.<\/p>\n

“The research really hit home because it reflects what so many mums live every day,” the mum-of-two said.<\/p>\n

“We give so much of ourselves to everyone around us, often without even thinking twice, and somewhere in that juggle we can forget about ourselves.”<\/p>\n
