Free Is Fun


About once a week something random will come in the mail that I got for free off of some freebies site. I am addicted to this crap. There is no way in the world I need these samples of coffee, shampoo, and girly products. I've gotten journals, pens, free postcards, wine posters, vote 08 pin, etc, etc. I could keep going. Its mainly just junk but sometimes I will get something in the mail that is awesome. For instance I got this really neat bowl for Gage from...I can't even remember the name but its great! I also got a really nifty potty training video that will come in handy when that time comes.

Tonight I did it again. I started going crazy signing up for free stuff. It kind of makes me excited to check the mail everyday. I love presents even if they aren't useful.

I ordered:
A free ice tray
A soy tea light
A Chinese silk woven hankerchief
An idea design book
Size 3 diaper sample
Tire Gauge

Here are a few sites I frequent for my habit:
Fat Wallet
Absurdlycool
Thunderfap

I think I should go to rehab for this. I am like seriously addicted.

Going to Rehab will set you "free".
Oh, wait, that's sort of the problem isn't it?
Nevermind.
Oops ... I offered "free" advice ... sorry

Yey!! Free stuff! It would be a lot worse if you were shopping addict... And spend your whole income in a pair of shoes, right? :)

That book looked nice to get a few decorating ideas :)

I went through a free stuff phase for awhile but fell off the bandwagon. I've been missing it though, so thanks for posting this to remind me. :)

Love free stuff!!! I stumbled across the Walmart.com site where they have a "what's new" section. Their freebies change all the time and some have been pretty decent! There is nothing better than three free maxi pads with a bonus tampon coming in the mail.
Love your blog! :) I'm adding you to my bodacious bloggers list ;)

You are too much! I say rehab. Free stuff is good but then all that stuff might lead to a hording obsession and well then it's all over!

Who doesn't love free stuff. I went thru a phase last year and thankfully that's out of my system now. I got gazillion of spams in my inbox and I just don't know how to control them.

You might want to try Wal-Mart online.

There is probably a site for free rehab out there somewhere. Oh, just kidding. It does sound like fun to have something waiting in your mailbox all the time.

I have free samples falling out my butt, no joke, I've got to stop myself! I was thinking about offering them up as a prize on my blog and mailing them all to someone else. LOL
