I was really surprised when I found out those silly Chrome finger bands were a legit offer. By the time I’d confirmed it, Google had run out of supply. It was part of their April Fools prank, so far more people than just freebie fans were signing up for them. Still, it would have been nice to layer jokes on top of a mock freebie.
I couldn’t figure out why I started getting Architectural Digest. I thought it was some mistake. Since I see your copy on the pile, I’m guessing it was a freebie that I forgot about!
I got:
Wall Street Journal(they are taking over my living room)
Degree Deodorant
Free Bic coupon
A tshirt that says “If you think I am irresistable…..you should see my deck” LOL
Best week ever!
2 Degree Anti-Perspirants (Don’t know how we got 2)
“Go Red” pin from American Heart Association

Gretchen, I have no idea where Architectural Digest came from either. I sure didn’t post it to HIF!
Jill, haha, where did you get that shirt from?
Salocin, that’s one heck of a haul.
why the hell were the finger rings not on here?!?!!?

I got a full size sample of Tide Stain Release with an individual laundry soap sample and a nice coupon! Also got an Allure magazine.
I received my Fekkai shampoo and conditioner sample, coupon for a free BIC lighter, MiraLAX samples, Tide Stain Release and detergent sample, and Ocean Spray blueberry pomegranate drink (which was cool—when I signed up for that one, I thought I was just going to get a coupon, not an actual drink in the mail. Nice! It was yummy, too.). I probably received a couple other things but I don’t remember what they were.
Fekkai shampoo/conditioner
Victoria’s secret fragrance
OXY
Miralax
Tampons
Degree deodorant/body wash

@Salocin your very lucky to get the 1903 Indian head penny; all I have is “wheat pennys.”
I have a question for those getting the WSJ.
Are you receiving a SmartSource insert with the weekend edition?
I got my Clinique mascara, Orville bowl popcorn, free bic coupon, miracle whip sample…and i used both of the CVS coupons (free full size hand soap & orbit gum)
@ Goob– there was no info on the package and it just said something about deck staining and installation really small on the back of the shirt.
@AllThoseThingsILove-I do NOT get a paper on Sunday but I do not know if it is because I get my mail at a PO box and they are closed on Sunday or the free subscription did not include Sunday. Heck, I do no even know if its published on Sunday but no I do not get any inserts in any day’s paper.
I forgot I also got a sample of Clean, Shower Fresh perfume. Smells exactly like laundry detergent.
Wait….I just got the mail!
Sample Showcase box with Secret Clinical Strength deodorant, two Coffee-mate French Vanilla creamer singles, one Nonni’s biscotti, two GUM soft picks (with coupon), Wisk detergent sample, Starbucks coupon for $1.50 off of a Via 8-pack.

Elvira, how did you get a free golf club and golf balls?!
Hi Corrina, Taylor Made gave away 20,000 6 irons free to the first applicants each month who fit their survey-based criteria. The promo ended April 1st. I applied the past few months, but haven’t received one yet. Fingers crossed!
Wow, I hope your actually reading all 11 of those free magazines every month, and recycling them properly. Way to ruin the earth with your greed.
wow Maureen a little harsh calling it greedy I for one read my magazines then bring them to work or the gym for others!!
I got the chrome finger bands, too!
As for the magazine subscriptions, some of us donate what we can’t/don’t read to others. I’ve given copies to neighbors going through hard times, my local public library, and other people who can use them. If I can’t/don’t read a magazine, and I don’t know anyone or anyplace that can use it, I don’t subscribe.
LMAO at Pawleen!!! Now I know what to do with the chrome finger bands:-)
I can’t remember everything but I was very impressed with my free mini photo book from Mypublisher! I can’t remember if you posted that here or someone else did but you might still be able to get one here:
