Coupon: Free Mars Chocolate Bar

A gallon of coffee this morning didn’t wake me up, so I’m heading to a nearby store and cashing in all of the free Mars Chocolate Bar coupons I have. I figure if a surge of sugar and chocolate can’t get me going, I deserve to crawl back in bed and pop in a Battlestar Galactica DVD.

Free Astroglide Natural Personal Lubricant

My juvenile sense of humor isn’t going to attempt any commentary for this free Astroglide Natural personal lubricant. I think it’s for the best of everyone involved.

Free Diplomatic History Videos

The U.S. State Department is giving away free Diplomatic History videos and that sound you just heard was me screaming in excitement. Folks, I’m a history and international relations nerd, there’s just no way to hide it. I’m on vacation and what am I reading for pleasure? The Guns of August, a 550 page tome about the events leading up to and the first month of World War I. You know, just a little light reading about death and destruction.

In fact, it’s the type of books I read to my siblings for bedtime stories. I’m starting to understand why they have so many nightmares now…

Free Plundering of Appalachia Poster

I doubt this free Plundering of Appalachia poster is what I think it is. Whenever I hear the word “plundering,” I immediately think of pirates on the open seas: drinking grog, searching for booty, and making each other walk the plank.

So, in other words, *crosses fingers* come on pirate poster!

Coupon: BOGO Free Venom Energy Drink

The Steaz energy shot coupon we posted a few days back actually happened to already be expired, which is my bad. However, I just found a coupon for a free printable BOGO Venom Energy Drink which might make up for the mistake! Probably not though as I see a mob of Hiffers outside my window with torches and pitchforks.

Wait a minute…no, that’s just a cloud. I think I need new glasses.

Free Travel-Size Lip Gloss

Rumor has it that the “free gift” you’ll receive for joining Sugar Shoes newsletter is a free travel-sized lip gloss. That just means it’s a small lip gloss, right? I hate when things are called “travel-sized” because I’ve never been one to leave something at home simply because of it’s size. Why just the other day I brought a 10-gallon drum of peanut butter with me on vacation since you can never have too many pb&j sandwiches!

Free NoDoz

Walmart is giving away free NoDoz anti-sleeping pills that you can use the next time you need to stay up late studying or fighting off werewolves. I hear silver bullets work well, but I have no idea how to best a werewolf. Good luck with that one.

Free Travel Guides

This free travel guides website looks sort of promising in that many of the travel guides are sent directly to you while others are available for immediate download. I still can’t find any hard information on if these are heavy in ads or if they come with coupons, but the shipping’s free and you might find a destination for your next getaway. I mean a personal getaway too, as I always seem to need a vacation after getting home from a family vacation.

Uh-oh. They read this site. What I meant to say was hey guys, this vacation rocks! [/sarcasm]1

  1. Just kidding about the sarcasm, let’s go ride some more waves and enjoy delicious beverages! []

IS & Deal: McDonald’s Coupon Book

Cheap McDonalds Coupon Book

If you’re a frequent patron of McDonald’s and have children 12-years and younger, you might want to be on the lookout for a Coupon Book the next time you grab a burger. They’re selling for $1 and in exchange, you get three copies of the following coupons: free baked pie, free small apple juice or milk jug, free small cone, and free apple dippers or small fries. The 12 coupons don’t expire until 12/31/2011, which means I have over a year to figure out how to make myself look like a child so that I can swing some free food!
