Freebies and free stuff

EDIT: Looks like we referred one too many! This is now dead.

I don’t typically post referral freebies, but the free Mrs. Fields cookies offer only requires three referrals for a $20 cookie tin which is pretty awesome. All you have to do is get three friends to sign up for their newsletter and – presto – you get some free cookies. I tried to get my family to help me out on this, but they’re all angry at me because they think I keep stealing their freebies. And by “think I keep” I mean “caught me on tape.”

So who wants to be my three friends that I get to refer?! First three people to leave a comment with a valid email get a referral from me and secret surprise!

In order to get a few free Nicorette mini lozenges wait for the offer to flash on the screen and then click it. Don’t worry, it’s not like you have to be fast. I have horrible reactions and was still able to click it. And that’s coming from a guy who has been terrorized by generations of houseflies for the past eight months. They’re too darn fast to hit!

You don’t need a membership number either! I think all of our rancor earlier in the week paid off.

I applaud the way Pampers Gifts to Grow is thinking. Their new code HangOn2Summer20 is something I try to do every year. It’s why I refuse to take off my bathing suit even when there’s a foot of snow on the ground. In other news, I think I’ve just discovered the source of my yearly bout of pneumonia.

If you’re already a member of Pamper’s site, then use this link to head straight to the log-in page. Otherwise, use the first link to sign up!

I have a brother named Thomas so I gave him a call after seeing the free Thomas coffee offer. I asked him questions like how much and what flavor of coffee we’d be getting. He wasn’t too helpful though and in fact only screamed obscenities at me for waking him up at four in the morning. Oh, well excuse me for not memorizing your darn sleeping patterns!

I’ve been toiling over which free Kashi product to get all day long. Cereal, granola, or crackers? Why do I have to choose? I say we should get all three!

I don’t do well with choices. In school I got nothing but an F- in Art because I always stared at my crayon box as if I’d just seen the reanimated corpse of Hitler. You know, it’s probably for the better that I never actually drew anything.

Their site is running super slow, so try back later if you’re having trouble.

[thanks Wendy!]

Eh, not the best week ever. In fact, the freebie load was quite light, but at least they weren’t all magazines. I’m fairly excited to drink that shampoo and use the V8 tea in the shower.

Freebies Received

• V8 V-fusion Green Tea
• Nicorette mini lozenges
• $8 in Pampers, Cheerios and Align coupons
• John Frieda Root Awakening shampoo & conditioner
• Don’t Drill Off OBX sticker
• Fall 2010 issue of Remedy Health and Wellness magazine
• August 30, 2010 issue of Sports Illustrated magazine
• August 30-September 5, 2010 issue of Bloomberg Businessweek magazine

Geez, only one of these is still available?

I kid you not, it’s time for another old freebie. Sure it’s not the most exciting and you’ve probably already gotten twenty free Aveeno Nourish+ shampoo samples, but it’s like Groundhog Day this week. Which reminds me, it’s been a while since I watched that movie. Looks like I know what’s on the agenda for tonight!

I’ve already posted these free Breathe Right nasal strips a few times in the past, but screw it! They fit in perfectly with this week’s Recycled Freebies theme. I wonder if these actually work for snoring though. My dad always had problems snoring and eventually got one of those sleep masks that looked like something a fighter pilot would wear. If you guessed I spent hours pretending to be a Spitfire pilot with it then you know me better than I thought. We should hang out sometime. Bring your aviator glasses and leather bomber jacket.

Your child can make school bus at tomorrow’s free Lowe’s Build & Grow Clinic. Not only is it a toy but it comes equipped with a secret compartment for their illegal gummy bear stash.

As usual, space is limited, so you need to register on-line beforehand.

We all know Sam’s Club and Costco like to require member numbers for their freebies. Well I guess BJ decided to join the Frustration Party by releasing this free Degree Men Deodorant while adhering to the same archaic terms. It’s almost as if those three companies are conspiring against us. It might explain why there’s been a strange truck parked outside my house for the past three weeks.

No, wait, that’s mine. False alarm!
