Free Zappos.com VIP Membership

Here’s one of those freebies to sign up for just in case you want it in the future. Zappos.com typically offers free priority mail shipping on all orders, however for the next 24 hours you can upgrade your account to VIP status giving you free overnight shipping on all orders. They ran this offer last December and since then I’ve ordered two or three things, all of which were on my doorstep the next morning.

Fine, I admit, I only signed up so that I can say I’m a VIP somewhere. It gives me an excuse to wear my spray-painted gold suit.

Free Dove Daily Treatment Conditioner

This free Dove daily treatment conditioner offer from April is still available and how is it already August 23? Summer just started. I feel like an old man now talking about how fast time goes by. I guess eating dinner at 4pm and drinking beet juice isn’t helping either.

Reminder: Free Jose Cuervo Items

The free Jose Cuervo items from May have been a huge topic on HIF’s Facebook page lately, so I thought I’d make a reminder post on how to get them. First off, you’re supposed to text 1795 to 283-786 before signing up for any freebie. Do you have to do this? I can’t tell.

However, let’s say you sent the text message, got the link that’s above, and are ready to signup. Not so fast! The good freebies are the three items below and chances are you’ll only see them available late at night or early in the morning.

  • Margarita Shakers
  • Salt Rimmer
  • Margarita Ball Mixer

If you don’t see any of those, then don’t sign up and try again later. You can sign up for something once per week through September 15. Also, it seems like they frequently change which states these aren’t available in. First it was TX and TN and now CA and VA seem to be having trouble.

Free StriVectin-SD

EDIT: This is no longer available.

According to the website offering free StriVectin-SD, this freebie will help kill crow’s feet. Heck yeah! I’ve been saying for years that crows are annoying enough without the added perk of having feet. They’re considered the fifth smartest animal, so I guess we’re about to see how long it takes their species to invent crutches.

Freebies Received: Weeks #28 & 29

Freebies from Hey, It's Free!

There was no roundup post last weekend, which means what you see above is two weeks worth of freebies.

Freebies Received

I think I’m gonna have to stop signing up for magazines or at the very least take up paper mache.

15 Free RecycleBank Points

Free Recycle Bank Points

If you’re down for 15 free RecycleBank points on this slow freebie day, then use code DEALSEEKINGM215. You’ll want to select “RecycleBank Insider” from the list beneath the code box.

Also, if you’re new to the site, you’ll get an additional 75 free points. Just registering nets you 25 and to get the extra 50, just look for the box that says to join the eBay Green Team. Well you’ll have to click it and join, not just look at it. I don’t think your computer can read your mind…yet.

EDIT: Whoa, it let me enter the code above five times, netting me an extra 60 points! I’m not sure if these extra points will stay or if this is a glitch, but heck, you might as well try.

Free Playtex Sport

It’s been almost a year since I last posted this and the freebie cupboard is quite bare today, so everybody sign up for this free Playtex Sport sample! So I guess this is where I make a witty comment. Um. Ah…

*plays around in iTunes for a while and then makes a sandwich*

Oh, you’re still here?

Deal: $50 GAP Giftcard for $25

I have an upcoming post explaining how Groupon works, but in the meantime you might be interested to know that for today only (Thur. Aug. 19), you can get a $50 GAP giftcard for only $25. This is one of those deals that I wouldn’t go out of my way for, but if you already shop at GAP regularly, it’s like getting a free $25 store credit.

The card expires Nov. 19, 2010 and is valid in-store only. Not valid at any Gap Outlet, Factory, Generation, or online.

Free GoodNites Underwear

EDIT: This is no longer available.

The free GoodNites underwear offer from Walmart is back just in time for school! I still vividly remember my first day. Nervously hiding behind Mom’s legs, pleading with her not to leave me, and wearing my big boy diapers for the first time. I tell ya, high school was a crazy experience!

[thanks to everybody who sent this in!]

Free Pregnancy Planner

EDIT: This is no longer available.

Thinking about having a child? Then by all means sign up for this free pregnancy planner and calendar. You can download the .pdf version and check it out before requesting a hard copy. I thought this might be a tad cheesy, but it’s actually quite large and informative.

For instance, I had no idea how babies were actually made. I thought you just went across town to the Anne Geddes factory and picked one out.

[thanks Freebies 4 Mom!]
