Freebies and free stuff

I remember the precise moment I learned it was sugar, not cinnamon, that made stuff like free Cinnabon Bites delicious. It was the split second in between taking a bite of homemade cinnamon toast and almost choking thanks to the pound of cinnamon I’d heaped upon it.

These are available Monday, April 18, from 6-8pm.

The free Zantac 150 offer from last month is back. I still don’t know what this stuff does. I still don’t know what I’m doing up either. Instead of going out or getting extra sleep, I played with my dogs then hunted for freebies until 2 am. For the first time, I’m bothered that I’m not turning into my dad.

I missed the free Gold Bond Ultimate Deep Moisture body wash offer this evening, so I’m making up for it by “working” at one in the morning. It’s that kind of dedication and hard work that I’m known for mostly avoiding.

Here’s a question: why do so many email offers, like the one for Bruegger’s birthday freebie, have those stupid lines on them? Who is designing these emails and why are they stuck using mid 90s computer coding?

Signup Freebie: Free bagel with cream cheese.
Birthday Freebie: Free cookie and an e-mail with a goofy looking mascot.

Remember, we have a full list of free birthday food!

EDIT: This is no longer available.

I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is Walmart is now offering free Garnier Fructis Pure Clean shampoo and conditioner, so if you missed out yesterday then you don’t have to bother with going through Facebook. The bad news is I’m bored. Nothing good can come of this. Being bored has been the number one cause for losing all of my security deposits and being banned from at least half of my friends places of employment.

I figured it was time for me to post a tutorial on deleting Twitter apps. Why? Because I care. Also, I’m super bored and the half dozen people I’m playing in Chess With Friends are taking hours to make their moves. I’m half convinced they’ve got a program calculating every possibility to help cheat.

Before we get started, if you’re so inclined, you can follow HIF and/or myself on Twitter. The HIF feed is for freebies while my feed is where I swear about stupid things in my life. It’s fun.

So, the one thing we have going for us is revoking access on Twitter is a whole heck of a lot easier than on Facebook. Step one, obviously, is logging into your account. Once there, you want to click the arrow next to your name in the top right.

What makes these free Arby’s curly fries (available Friday, April 15) so delicious? It’s not the curliness, that’s for sure. I cut some broccoli into curls last night and all I got was a giant mess and a plate full of disgusting vegetables.

You’ll need a coupon tomorrow but you can print it today.

I’ve been trying to get this free Garnier Fructis Pure Clean shampoo and conditioner on Facebook for three days now. Skip the “submit my pledge” box and scroll down to the small “get your free sample” button about halfway down. The freebie promises to have “No Silicone. No Dye. No Paraben.” That’s great, especially considering I have no idea what paraben is.

They’ve had a boatload of trouble with this freebie recently, so don’t be surprised if we HIF the crap out of it.

Log into your Kraft First Taste account and click “My Offers” to see if you’re elibible for some free Kraft shredded cheese. Some people *smiles triumphantly as if he actually accomplished something* are receiving a coupon for free cheese while others only get a $1 coupon.
