Free Stuff

And How to Get Yours Off the Web

sherry frady
Who doesn't like receiving free stuff in the mail? Or getting free stuff anywhere for that matter. With the price of foods, beauty supplies, and other items, as outrageously expensive as they are today, every little bit helps. When I go into a grocery store to pick up needed supplies for my family, i usually end up spending a small fortune before I'm done. In today's economy, its really hard to provide our families with the things they need, plus a few little extras once in a while. And the way my kids run through things, I can't afford to pay the high prices companies demand. Waste is a big problem when you have kids in the house, especially when it comes to necessities, like shampoo and toothpaste, these require very little when using, but still don't last long around my home, simply because my kids think they need a cup full of shampoo to wash there hair, and when they brush there teeth, they assume you have to paint the sink with it to do a good job.

So again, the waste issue is a big problem for us. 30 percent of the product goes down the sink, tub, etc, and with prices so high that's unacceptable. That's why the free samples I receive in the mail from the various sites I visit frequently, benefit my family tremendously. We've received toothpaste samples, shampoo samples, soap samples, vitamin samples, nutrition bar and cereal samples, we've also received several full size samples of items I buy frequently. I haven't had to buy greeting cards, post it notes, or calendars in years, because I get all those sent periodically from the free sites I visit. Microwave meals, mouse pads, and t- shirts, are other commonly requested items by those in my household. The creation and use of these sites allow consumers to try new products before actually buying. Which is a good thing because it allows the option of knowing if we like it or not, before we hand over our hard earned cash. I've switched from one product to another, thanks to samples I've received in the mail and loved.

There are several free sites online that you can request top free samples in the mail from. Some of these include Moms and Dads freebies, this is a site created for, and catering to, the needs of parents of small children. They offer wonderful freebies and samples from some of the top makers of children's products. I've received children's vitamins, posters, free kids books, and many other wonderful things from them, things my kids loved. Freaky Freddies free site, is another wonderful freebie packed, free stuff site, its filled to the brim with tons of free samples, and free stuff that is sure to meet the needs of your family, and save you money in the long run. Its also one of the oldest free sites around, and for good reason. I've received several top quality items from this site in the past, including posters for my kids, t-shirts and mouse pads. Another good free site to try is walmart.com freebies, this site has mailed me a ton of freebies, including a full size ladies schick quatro razor.

Sassysue, freestuff daily, freenclear, and the freesite are other places on the web you can find freebies. But personally, I've never tried these. In your search for free stuff, be careful about the sites you choose, and look for web pages which say 'survey participation required' before requesting survey, as this means you'll have to spend the next hour, aimlessly clicking your mouse to get through an endless array of boring question, to eventually request your sample, and its just not worth it. Some of them even require you to enter your credit card information. Again, be wary of those free stuff sites which require you to do this. Free sites are a wonderful way to get free stuff for your family and friends. And remember, the legitimate ones wont make you take those long surveys, and definitely wont ask for your credit card information, which you should never give out to anyone. Just google free stuff on the internet to bring up all the before mentioned sites and tons more. Happy freebie hunting!

    This is a link to one of the easiest ways to get free stuff. Click on the link, sign up. Then choose a offer to complete (The Penny Auctions is one of the easiest), most of the offers are completely free. You only have to do one offer. Then get a certain amount of referrals (The most you have to get is 75, and that's for a laptop). Lastly, order your gift. There is some cool gifts already on it, but can do a custom order to get something else. Sign up and enjoy your gift.
