Free Mini Clif Energy Bar

I don’t get much exercise unless you count sprinting to my mailbox every day. Oh, you don’t? Ugh, you sound just like my doctor and gut. Well maybe this free mini Clif energy bar will spur me into working out a little. First goal: build up enough stamina so that I don’t require an oxygen tank to climb into bed.

Free Sunglasses Cleaning Cloth

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been looking sharp with my shades on, noticed a smudge mark, and destroyed my cool image by trying to fog up the lens and wipe it down. Half the time I even end up having an asthma attack! But now my lame days are behind me thanks to this free sunglasses cleaning cloth.

Okay, who am I kidding, I’m sure I’ll still find ways to embarrass myself. You hear that, subconscious?! That sounds like a challenge!

Free Oral Health Care Products

EDIT: This is no longer available.

Quantum Health, a company that makes natural products, is offering three free oral health care products:

  • Lip Clear Lysine+ for cold sores
  • Canker Cover for canker sores
  • OraMoist for dry mouth

Make sure you fill out the second form as well. The first one is to enter a contest while the second one gets the freebies sent out. Also, if you have speakers, turn them off. There’s not only an auto-playing video on the site, but it freaking loops! Whoever invented those features need to be banned from the Internet for life.

Know of Any Company Loyalty Programs?

Hey, Hiffers, I’ve got two questions that I’m hoping you might be able to help on. First, I’m looking to put together a list of company loyalty programs, sort of like our lists of birthday freebies or museums that allow free admission.

I did something similar a year ago when I put together a list of customer reward programs, but those were more of programs with an actual set prize (ie, spend $100, get $5).

What I’m looking for are company loyalty or fan programs that make a vague promise of “freebies” or “samples.” A good example would be 3M Perks, which says users will get “Limited-time promotions, discounts and free samples” without explicitly stating when or what these freebies would be. Another example would be Pop Tarts Sprinklings club, which says members will get “new flavor releases & samples.”

My second request is company programs that have codes you enter after buying their products, like My Coke Rewards or Tropicana Juicy Rewards. I just found out about Pop Tart Rewards and it got me wondering if there are a ton of other companies doing this that I didn’t know about.

If you happen to know of any, please comment away!

Free Kids’ Guide to Helping Animals

FREE Kids' Guide to Helping Animals Magazine

PETA Kids is offering a free Guide to Helping Animals magazine that also comes with articles, tips, stickers, and comic books. I wonder what the tips will be. 1) Don’t eat meat. 2) Stop dressing your pets in creepy sweaters.

IS: Free Aveda Men Shampoo

If you have a nearby Aveda Salon/Spa, then bring in this coupon for a free Aveda Men shampoo. I especially enjoy the wooden look and feel of the site. For a minute, I thought I was in my childhood cabin!

It’s actually a small miracle I never needed a tetanus shot. While trying to build a set of chairs and table, I put more nails through my fingers than I did the wood.

Free Taco Bell Limeade Sparkler

I always thought sparklers were those little sparking hand held fireworks for kids, but here’s a printable coupon for a free Taco Bell limeade sparkler drink. You know, I don’t care what flavor it is, good luck getting me to drink a firework. I’m onto you, Taco Bell!

The offer is valid for the first 500,000 people, so hurry before the entire city of Albuquerque decides to print these out!

[thanks Tracy!]

Free Lanacane Anti-Chafing Gel

The form for this free Lanacane anti-chafing gel has a section to write in where you normally experience chaffing. I decided to mess with the poor intern tasked with reading the responses and put “the space between my elbow and fourth ear.”

Deal: Free RitzPix Photo Book (5/18)

For today only (Tuesday, May 18), you can get a free RitzPix photo book, however you have to pay $1.99 shipping. The 4×4 hardcover book is 20 pages long and retails for $10. The deal doesn’t expire until 10pm EST tonight, so you’ve got plenty of time to pick out some photos and create your book.

The best part is that the photos can be of anything you want, not just Ritz crackers. Of course, I realized this after I held a photo shoot in my kitchen. Now what am I supposed to do with two dozen pictures of my pantry?

Free Victoria’s Secret Limited Edition Panty

What makes these free Victoria’s Secret panties so special as to classify them limited edition? I haven’t the slightest, but feel free to print out the coupon on Facebook and find out.

The coupon states that you have to make “any purchase,” but it’s been a while since I’ve been in a Victoria’s Secret. What’s the cheapest thing they sell? Maybe something like a $1 tube of lip gloss? I tried looking on their website, but got distracted. The typography is amazing!
