Free Stuff!!!!

Free Reusable Grocery Tote Bag This site will send you a free reusable grocery tote bag if you agree to their pledge to do some things that are good for the environment. I didn't agree to everything (I'm not into composting on my kitchen counter!), but some things just make sense and save you money. A lot of stores are starting to go bag less and are wanting you to use a reusable one, so you might as well get one for free! *This is the last week they are offering this!

Free Leapfrog Music CD This site gives you the option to download 15 free songs or have them ship you a free CD. All you have to do is register (for free) on their site and tell them which leapfrog things you have. It took a couple of minutes, but I know my girls will enjoy getting something fun in the mail!

Free Elmo Bag Tag You can get this free bag tag for registering on their site (for free). It has Elmo on the front (which Anna loves!) and a space on the back to write you're child's name. I thought this would be perfect to put on Anna's bags and sippy cups while she's in the nursery at Church. And, once again, something fun in the mail!

Free Sippy Cup This is an offer by Juicy Juice, you can also get free coupons on their site. Unfortunately, I did this offer when Rylie was a baby and they won't let me do it again. (so if anyone does it and doesn't want theirs. . .) Again, this is something they will send to you once you register on their site.

Free Things For Your Birthday Some of you may have seen this link on Keren's blog, but I thought it was worth posting again for those of you who didn't see it. Several restaurants and companies offer free food/product during your birthday month. This site has a large list of those different companies. You can choose the ones that you like and go to their individual sites and register. It can be time consuming, but I think it was worth it. Not only will I get free appetizers, entrees, deserts, etc. during the month of July, but I also got several coupons in my email thanking me for registering on their sites. For example, I got a coupon for Subway for a free sandwich if I buy a drink. Then, on my birthday I will get something else from them as well. A few of the sites also let you register your kids for their birthdays also.

Freebies 4 Mom This is the blog where I heard about all of these great deals. You can subscribe to it in an RSS feeder or by email. Everyday she has posts about great deals, freebies, samples, sweepstakes, links to coupons, etc. I followed several of the links for free samples to be sent to me from several different companies.

Free Samples I recently found out that Walmart has a spot on their site where they offer links to free samples. Every week or so, they change what they are offering, so keep checking back. I got free samples of shampoo, conditioner and diapers this week.

Free Movie Rentals Redbox is a movie rental vending machine located in several grocery stores (usually Albertsons and Walmart have them, and some McDonalds even). They are already pretty cheap at $1 a night and no late fees, plus they are very convenient. They have an online feature which we frequently use. You can go to their site and reserve whichever movie you want and then go pick it up. This has worked great for us because we don't have to stand at the box browsing through all the movies (with a line of people behind us) only to find out that it's already sold out that day. If you go to their site and sign up for text messaging, they will send you a text message every Monday with a code for a free movie.

Free Samples/Coupons If you register for this site you can take surveys, chat with other women, etc. I don't do any of that, but since I registered, I get things in the mail from them constantly. I never know what I'm going to get or when. Today I got a coupon for a free box of Kashi brand frozen waffles, along with 4 coupons for $1.50 off. Saturday, I got a sample box of Frosted Mini Wheat Cereal, along with a coupon for buy one, get one free, and several $1 off coupons. In the past I've gotten postcards (which where dumb and I threw away), packages of gum (which we liked), samples of dish soap, coupons, etc. It's kind of fun to see what will come next and it has saved me some money. There has been two different times when I've ran out of deodorant only to have a trial size deodorant come in my mail that same day!
