HIF Contest: Two Free $25 Giftcards

Posted on 05.28.2009 by Goob in HIF Contest

The freebies have been a little (Goob’s mind: define little!) slow lately and thus I thought I’d kick things off by giving away two $25 giftcards to two random Hiffers. All you have to do is take an 11 question survey about HIF to be entered! And heck, two of the 11 questions are your name and e-mail.

As for what the gift cards will be for, each winner will have his/her choice between a $25 GC to Amazon, eBay, or direct Paypal deposit. I’m flexible (and amazingly awesome?) like that. In fact, depending on how many people participate in this (hint, hint), I might make this a monthly thing.

So go take the survey and be entered to win a $25 gift card! The survey ends at midnight PST on June 2 and the winners will be chosen by Random.org.

(FYI: If you’re having trouble getting the survey to work, let me know here in the comments. I’m using the best “free” program I could find, but if I get a million and a half complaints, I’ll shell out a few hundred bucks for a professional service.)

EDIT: For some reason, #6 is not allowing people to input any answers other than the ones I selected and I can’t seem to fix it. Other than that, the survey is going strong. Reading through the answers so far has been a bit enlightening!

    didn’t have any problems with the survey. I’m entered and an extra $25 IS definately awesome!! and so are YOU Goob (does stroking your ego help?). lol

  6. #6 Trish | May 29th, 2009 at 11:34 am

    Hi Goob, I just wanted to point out that it’s Friday and you promised “to start copy[ing] & pasting this free Mars chocolate candy coupon offer each Friday.”

  7. #7 jill | May 29th, 2009 at 11:36 am

    i had no problems worked fine for me

  8. #8 Anianna | May 29th, 2009 at 11:53 am

    Only trouble I had was #6, as others mentioned. I wanted to put “two or three days in advance” in the “other” selection, but it didn’t like that, so I ended up picking the day before option. I just thought I’d add, I like advance notice, but too far ahead and I forget all about it.

    I can only open page 1. When I try to move on to page 2 it brings me right back to page 1.

  10. #10 Jody | May 29th, 2009 at 12:05 pm

    I filled it out no problem..

  11. #11 marlena | May 29th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

    GOOB IS GREAT….WOULD LOVE TO WIN THIS PRIZE!

  12. #12 Hotrod | May 29th, 2009 at 12:14 pm

    I to had problems with question 6. It wouldn’t let me leave a comment if I checked “other”. It did however let me leave a comment when I checked “the day before”

  13. #13 charlotte brower | May 29th, 2009 at 12:56 pm

    We <3 u Goob!

  14. #14 Paula | May 29th, 2009 at 01:11 pm

    # 6 didn’t like the other option for me either. I just changed my answer and still wrote a comment.
    I say keep with the FREE survey program!

  15. #15 cnr1408 | May 29th, 2009 at 01:12 pm

    Worked for me! Thanks!

  16. #16 jan | May 29th, 2009 at 01:18 pm

    After the questionaire was finished the page went blank. I did not get a statement that it went through. Shall I try again?? Thanks.

  17. #17 Ashley | May 29th, 2009 at 02:16 pm

    I completed the survey! =)

  18. #18 Linda | May 29th, 2009 at 02:22 pm

    Signed up for the Friday chocolate now my day is complete. Thank-You for posting it.

  19. #19 Crystal | May 29th, 2009 at 02:39 pm

    What happens if people try to enter more than once…than it will be unfair and we will have to kick some butt =). Now you have me wondering! That’s a darn good question……

  20. #20 Angel B. | May 29th, 2009 at 02:58 pm

    Isnt it…

  21. #21 sharon | May 29th, 2009 at 03:05 pm

  22. #22 Nancy | May 29th, 2009 at 03:10 pm

    I didn’t have any problems with the survey. I got a reminder on my e-mail to sign up for my free chocolate because it is Friday. I have the most fun with this site and seeing everyone else post a comment. Lucky ME. I also wear glasses and think my caricture suits me. Good luck to all of us.

  23. #23 Joanne | May 29th, 2009 at 03:26 pm

    Thanks. Get your newsletter. Right now I’m trying to find out how to follow you on twitter. I will!!

  24. #24 Victoria | May 29th, 2009 at 03:30 pm

    Goob this is such a great idea! THe survey was sooo easy. I think this website runs so amazingly smooth. Ever since I found this site, I have not gone a day without checking it. I don’t even remember where I found out about this site! But I’m glad I did. Thank you SO much!

  25. #25 Pat | May 29th, 2009 at 03:51 pm

    I had a problem with the time preferred to get the newsletter. When I checked “Other” and wrote my preferred time, it didn’t like it, said it was an error. So I was forced to check one of the boxes instead.

    No biggie. Just letting you know.

  26. #26 Debra Johnson | May 29th, 2009 at 04:18 pm

    I did the survey but I am not sure if it went thru or not. when I hit finished it took me to the page 2 and I checked it over and hit finished again and it sent me back to the same page again, so either it will not be done or maybe done several times as i hit finished a couple more times with the same result.

  27. #27 Judy p | May 29th, 2009 at 05:22 pm

    Hey Goob… as everyone else has told you… first page only. But since I’m here just wanted to tell you…..

    GREAT JOB!!! Your freebie site is the BEST!!!

  28. #28 Crystal | May 29th, 2009 at 05:46 pm

    Wow I never saw such a bunch of ***kissers before lol. I am just teasing!!

  29. #29 Beth | May 29th, 2009 at 06:42 pm

    I entered Huh…what newsletter? How do you sign up for it?

    Goob’s Reply: Here’s a link to the signup page.

  30. #30 Zachary Jacob Zblewski | May 29th, 2009 at 06:59 pm

    Only problem I had was that I could not write in my own answer for question 6. Seems like that’s a problem for everyone, so I’ll have to say the survey worked 100% for me.

  31. #31 Ashley | May 29th, 2009 at 07:20 pm

    worked good for me.

  32. #32 Crystal | May 29th, 2009 at 07:29 pm

    It’s that shiny blue lettering that says ‘Subscribe to our newsletter by clicking here’ it’s right above the search box.

  33. #33 Michelle | May 29th, 2009 at 08:38 pm

    i’ve tried to search for heyitsfree on facebook but nothing comes up……..what do you put in the search?

    Goob’s Reply: Here’s a link to our Facebook Fan Page.

  34. #34 Shannon | May 29th, 2009 at 09:16 pm

    I just filled out the survey and just thought of something I didn’t like. I don’t like that the links don’t open a new window. So when I fill out a freebie, I have to type back in heyitsfree….know what I mean? Not that big of a deal, but hey you asked!

    Thanks – love the site!!

  35. #35 rlwl68 | May 29th, 2009 at 10:49 pm

    Took the survey with no problems! Great job, Goob!

  36. #36 Jen | May 29th, 2009 at 11:08 pm

    To comment #83, search for Hey, It’s Free on Facebook. To comment #45, I clicked on the wrong link while trying to get to the comments section and it took me back to the “Thank you for taking the survey!” page. So it looks like you can only enter once.

  37. #37 Chris | May 29th, 2009 at 11:26 pm

    Took the survey, thanks again for your site!

  38. #38 Renee | May 30th, 2009 at 06:32 am

    All good-survey loaded great-no problems :) Thank you!

  39. #39 Brian | May 30th, 2009 at 06:45 am

    To comment #84—why don’t you save HIF in your favorites? Then, you won’t ever have to type in.

  40. #40 Jennifer J. | May 30th, 2009 at 01:33 pm

    Worked great for me. Thanks Goob!

  41. #41 Gabrielle | May 30th, 2009 at 08:07 pm

    I just finished the survey and forgot to say that it would be nice if the links for the freebies opened up a new window. Not for #84’s reason, but to be able to go to another website while that one is loading. Sometimes it takes forever to get through a webpage’s introduction.

    Have you set as my homepage Goob! Thanks!

  42. #42 Beth Ann | May 31st, 2009 at 01:01 am

    If you right click on the links, you can then select “open in new tab”. You can also change your browser settings to open links in new windows instead of “reusing” pages.

  43. #43 Daiszze | May 31st, 2009 at 08:19 am

    No probs for me either….Was able to fill all out quickly….Good luck all

  44. #44 Robin | May 31st, 2009 at 08:48 am

    It worked fine for me also!!

  45. #45 Gabrielle | May 31st, 2009 at 10:06 am

    Beth Ann – Thanks for the tip!

  46. #46 Melody | May 31st, 2009 at 02:45 pm

    Hi-really tried to do the survey but when I finished the first page and tried to get to 2nd page – it just kept going back to the first page- like a never ending circle of computer weirdness! I tried several times and would really love to do the survey and hopefully, win one of the gift cards but what can I do to make it work? Thanks so much.

  47. #47 fanniefarkle | May 31st, 2009 at 06:30 pm

    good survey. hope I win!!!

  48. #48 fanniefarkle | May 31st, 2009 at 06:37 pm

  49. #49 Marvin | May 31st, 2009 at 07:51 pm

    Entered, I hope I win!

  50. #50 LegalMist | June 1st, 2009 at 04:44 am

    In the survey, I forgot to mention, one of the things I love about the site is your humor. I like to smile while I get my freebies. There are lots of freebie sites out there, but yours is one of the most entertaining.

    I also like that your freebies are truly free – no “participation” or purchases required.

    You’re doing a great job. Thanks!
