Freebies and free stuff

I’m all for this free Fiber One Caramel One cereal if for no other reason than I could use some more fiber in my diet. At least I think I could, because that’s what every third commercial on TV tells me. Though TV also tells me that I need to start taking a pill to make my periods less intense and shorter, so maybe I shouldn’t be taking medical advise from it. I’ll still eat this free cereal though!

EDIT: The King has had this freebie beheaded.

I recently stumbled across a coupon for a free pie from Burger King, so I uploaded it to HIF and am sharing it with y’all. It expires in just a few days on January 31st, so make sure you print a few out and enjoy more than one! This freebie made me realize that we’ve had a lot of coupons on here recently and I was wondering what y’all thought about that. Do you enjoy the coupons for free stuff or would you rather we only posted links to freebies where you could sign up for it and then forget about it until it came in the mail?

EDIT: This freebie is no longer available.

This free Chocolate Turtle Chex Mix is some really good stuff to snack on, as I’ve had a few bags of it already. There’s a free coupon for it on the back of a bunch of cereal boxes out right now, but I can’t for the life of me remember what brands. So if you’re in the grocery store this week and having a tough time picking from the ten thousand different brands of cereal, you might want to look on the back of the boxes and see which ones will also come with a cool freebie

If you or your children might enjoy some free Yoplait Kids yogurt, then be sure to sign up for this freebie. Unfortunately, if you live in California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Jersey, North Dakota or Tennessee, then you’re out of luck because the site says they can’t send you the coupon. Which doesn’t make much sense to me. What’s so special about those states? Do they not eat yogurt in North Dakota? Too cold for them up there? And what’s so special about Idaho? Or Tennessee?! Dang it, I want to know why the residents in these fine states don’t get any free yogurt!

Recently, I was going to make a list of some really cool video games that you could download for free. Then I found a list of 101 free computer games that had already been written on 1up.com! Now these aren’t ground breaking games we’re talking about here, but come on here, they’re free! They’re broken down into categories like puzzles, Sim City, sports, etc. Let us know in the comments if you find any gems and if you can’t find any games that you like, don’t fret. There’s always the awesome arcade in the forums

EDIT: I’m pretty sure this coupon is now expired.

If you enjoy free Krispy Kreme Donuts as much as I do, then A) You’re awesome and B) You’ll love this coupon that I recently found. As usual, I’ve uploaded it here to HIF just in case the coupon gets deleted on other sites. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go buy a few dozen donuts and eat as many of them as I can while trying to forget all about that freaking football game Sunday night…

Did you know that tomorrow (Wednesday January 23, 2008) is National Pie Day? Yeah, neither did I. But Bakers Square has a coupon on their website for a free slice of pie to celebrate the occasion. Let’s all say a giant “woo hoo!” together now! Frankly, after seeing this freebie, I think we need a National Pie Month. Or better yet, a whole year! I would probably gain around 50 pounds thanks to all the free pie I’d be eating, but it’d be more than worth it.

I have to fully agree with Goob when he says that he loves maps. When I was growing up, I had two on the back of my bedroom door: One world one from Publix and one US one with Snoopy from MetLife with all of the state capitals on it. When I moved to college, I left them there.

So maybe it’s just right that now there’s this free World Heritage world map for registering on their website. I knew that I needed a new dart board.

Dart board? Yes. Oh come on, its the best way to learn about the world! Hang up a map, throw some darts at it, and look up the country you land on and study them for a few days. Oh don’t tell me that I’m the only one who did that…

The commercials for these free EAS energy bars kinda freak me out. You’ve got Brady Quinn, a pro quarterback in the NFL, running through some obstacles and doing drills while everything in the background and around him is this hazy purple color. It looks like a ton of nuclear bombs exploded back there and nuclear winter has set in. Are they trying to tell us something here? Is this the only food that will allow us to survive massive doses of radiation? Folks, I’m frankly a little scared now. Somebody hold me!

Has it really been two weeks since I’ve posted something here? Man… Between endlessly listening to the few songs leaked from Seven Mary Three’s new album, my class schedule of 16 credit hours (at UCF, a full courseload is considered 12, with max for a semester allowed being 17), and running my own website now and blogging daily there, well, I haven’t been posting much… But I’ve been reading everything!

And seeing I’ve almost overplayed those few Seven Mary Three tracks, its great that we had this “free” album download from Todd Carey. He’s the latest musician to jump on board the bandwagon of pay what you feel, and if you feel like nothing, well, so be it. But if you do pay $5 or more, $1 of that will be donated to the Go Green Initiative. So all in all? Everyone wins.

Quite a good album, too, though. But I think I need to listen to “Last Kiss” one more time… Or twenty!

This is most likely dead.

1. all of the above
2. a type of lily
3. false
4. all of the above
5. false
6. tequiila
7. George Carlin
8. Partida Tequila

What is all of that above? Well, it’s the answers to this Partida Tequila quiz where you can get a free t-shirt, money clip, necklace or agave drink (whatever the heck that is!) Personally, I went with the t-shirt simply because I don’t know what the drink is, I’m not much of a necklace kinda guy, and I don’t think I’m cool enough to pull off a money clip. Well, that, and I’m like George Costanza and keep way too much stuff in my wallet!

Oh great, a free wood skull air freshener is not what I need right now. No, don’t worry, it has nothing to do with this being an inferior freebie or anything, but instead to do with my own truck and some specific memories. You see, my mom likes to mess around with my truck and put little knick-knacks and doodads all over it. If she can find girly items, all the better in her eyes! She’ll stick stuff on my antenna, bumper, steering wheel, anywhere! So two weeks ago she found a strawberry-shortcake air freshener and decided to hide it under my seat so as to smell my truck up.

Flash forward to the next morning. She leaves for work, I’ve got the kids, and I’m getting ready to take them to school. I clamber into the cab, jostle around as we try to find space for all of our limbs without having to hang them out the window, and wrinkle our noses at the God-awful smell of fake strawberry smell. I stick the key in the ignition, turn it forward, and….nothing! My mom had left the light in the cab on after pulling her little prank and I was now stuck at home all alone with the kids for a four day weekend since I couldn’t get them to school. Thanks a lot, Mom!

When I saw this free moon calendar, I honestly thought it meant a calendar that you could use to tell what day of the week it was based on the moon. Then I realized I’m an idiot. But think about how cool that would be. To go in a cave or something for a long time and then to walk out one night, look up at the sky during, and go “Oh, it’s totally March 19th. Duh.”

But I’d probably just cheat and look at my watch. Because I’m sneaky like that.

Every morning I wake up and think to myself, “you know what? I think I’ll have some oatmeal this morning!” Then I shuffle my way into the kitchen and fumble my way through the cabinet to find a bowl and spoon. By this point I’ve exhausted well over half of my expendable energy and the thought of finding some oatmeal, pouring warm water on top of it, opening the microwave, waiting for it to heat up, and then eating it seems like waaaaaay too much work. So I pour a giant mug of coffee and get one step further away from a healthy diet!

So I wonder if the fact that I can get some free Coach’s oatmeal might not give me that extra boost of energy in the morning to finally eat it!
