Free MLB.tv Subscription for T-Mobile Customers

Updated on Apr 15, 2024 at 3:22 pm · Disclosure

IT'S BAAAAAACK! Oh man, I AM HYPED! Y'all may remember T-Mobile has offered free MLB.tv subscriptions since 2016. This $150 value freebie allows baseball fans to stream, watch, and listen to every out-of-market baseball game throughout the season, which is great when you're a Seattle Mariners fan living on the east coast.

Well, I'm thrilled to announce the offer has returned for 2024! If you or anyone you know loves baseball, be sure to share this freebie since Sprint & T-Mobile customers can sign up for a free mlb.tv subscription between March 26 and April 2.

Save and redeem in the T-Mobile Tuesdays app between March 26, 2024, at 5:00 a.m. ET and April 2, 2024, 4:59 a.m. ET to receive a free subscription to MLB.TV for the entire 2024 season. Limited-time offer, subject to change. Only for T-Mobile, Sprint and Metro by T-Mobile customers on qualifying plans who have T-Mobile Tuesdays.

You must redeem this offer between March 26 and April 2! Here's how:

Open the T-Mobile Tuesday app or head to T-Mobile's MLB promo page on your mobile device so you download the app from there.
Sign into your T-Mobile account, then click “Save”
Select offer from “My Stuff” and tap the “Redeem” button
Log in or register at MLB.tv with your T-Mobile phone number
That's it! Your free subscription will run through March 2025. It lets you watch ever single out-of-market baseball game on your phone, tablet, computer, or TV. You can also listen via a radio feed to every single game and team broadcast.

I was pleasantly surprised to see both contract plans as well as customers on their no contract, month-to-month plan qualify for this free mlb.tv subscription.

Man, a free mlb.tv subscription is music to my ears. It's been well documented that I'm a glutton for punishment. There's no other explanation for why I'm still a hardcore Seattle Mariners fan after the past two decades. 2021 ended in a heartbreaker – we came THIS CLOSE to finally making the playoffs and finally breaking their streak of the longest active postseason drought in all pro American sports. Oh well, with this freebie, I'll be able to watch Seattle extend their misery another year. Just like my dating life!

OH BABY, THERE'S A GREAT REASON TO BE A MARINERS FAN NOW! The drought is over and glorious success is ahead of us 😀

Possible Free Gratsy Sample Box

Published on Mar 26, 2024 at 4:01 pm · Disclosure

The Gratsy app is accepting new users for consideration to receive free sample boxes of curated products. All you have to do is download the free Gratsy app for Apple or Android and enter information about your demographics and interests.

If you scroll down on their site, you can see images of 12 previous Gratsy boxes. Each one seems to be themed with related freebies, which is a nice twist that I wished other companies followed. I must have gotten a million PinchMe boxes with a bunch of random freebies that didn't really go together like a single cat treat, a laundry dryer sheet, and some hardwood floor cleaner.

There's no guarantee you'll be offered a box, but it can't hurt to sign up and be in the running!

2024 Free Fishing Days

Published on Mar 26, 2024 at 3:20 pm · Disclosure

Table of Contents

The free 2024 fishing days have been announced for all 50 states and DC! On these specific days, unique to each state, you are allowed to fish without a fishing license. Most of the 2024 dates seem to fall around early June, but there are plenty of May, July, and August dates on there as well.

Most freebie sites only list the dates, but I've put in the extra work and found all the corresponding links & announcements to back them up. Below are all 50 states free fishing dates along with links for proof! To learn more about your local free fishing opportunities, scroll down to your state, click through to the website, and read all about your state regulations.

Make sure to check your state's official website for extra details. Some states actually offer free fishing rods, tackle, and bait during their free fishing weekends!

On a related note, I learned about the existence of fishing licenses the hard way. I was grateful the game warden took pity on me when he saw I not only failed catching a single fish, but was also tangled in the fishing line when he pulled up.

Saved by my own ineptitude!

2024 Kids Roller Skate Free Program Update

Published on Mar 25, 2024 at 10:02 pm · Disclosure

Many Hiffers have taken advantage of the annual Kids Skate Free Club over the years. The good news is that it's coming back for 2024, but there was been a slight change to the program.

Instead of being 100% free, there is now a $4.99 membership cost that lasts for 12 months. So while there's a new cost, it's pretty small and nothing else has changed. Joining the membership will get you 2 Kids Skate Free passes per child, per week, all year long. These passes are only valid for one week and will automatically expire, but they're replaced with two new valid passes every Monday!

Once you locate a nearby rink, click their name to see dates, times, and age limits for their free skating. Register an account, then download the MyHownd app on your smartphone. This will be the app that lets you claim your kids free passes each week. Your first set of passes will be available in the MyHownd app on Monday morning following your free registration.

This program is good at a variety of locations in 36 states. Some locations have a $3-$4 skate rental fee, so be sure to check the website to see the details at your local rink. While the new change is not totally free, these passes don't expire until the end of the year, so you make your money back pretty fast.

Free THE KIT Samples

Published on Mar 24, 2024 at 10:04 pm · Disclosure

THE KIT sounds like some sort of knockoff of a knockoff brand. But apparently they've teamed up with Sampler to possibly send us snacks and beauty products! I don't think the keyboard, smartphone, or plant shown in the promotional image are included. Which is a good thing, because I've been known to unwittingly kill plants within hours of getting them. I have whatever the opposite of a green thumb is. A brown butt?

Free Bookmarks by Mail 🔖

Published on Mar 19, 2024 at 6:31 pm · Disclosure

Everybody talks about the missing sock in the dryer conundrum that plagues us all, but how come we don't hear more about the vanishing bookmarks? I've gotten dozens of bookmarks over the years, however once these free bookmarks below arrive in the mail, my official Bookmark Count will be one. Where the heck do they all go?! Am I the only person who seems to be cursed with this phenomenon? Please tell me I'm not alone.

Most of these are physical bookmarks they'll send via the mail. There are also a few bookmarks you can print from home, if you have some thicker stock paper.

More Free Bookmarks

If you're looking for more themed bookmarks, then check out these bookmarks that are still available to order:

How to Easily Find Free Bookmarks

You can also find limited edition free bookmarks with good Google searches. I use request “free bookmark” -printable and it showed me to a lawn care specialist offering a free bookmark once. Years later, the same search took me to a dentist on the other side of the country offering to send me a bookmark in the mail.

And then there was the free scented bookmark I found. Finally! I can't tell you how many times I've been reading a good book and suddenly thought to myself “I could go for a good sniff of something right now.”

To find more bookmarks, substitute “request” for other words like send, mail, or sign up. Play around with it and let us know what you find!

Brickit App Scans Your LEGO Pile and Shows You What to Build!

Published on Mar 18, 2024 at 8:44 pm · Disclosure

Whoa….

Seriously, WHOA!!!

I hope you're ready for some magic and potential witchcraft because this is AMAZING.

In 2021, a group of LEGO fans unveiled an app called Brickit that scans your pile of LEGO pieces and show everything you can build! It even provides build instructions right in the app and will highlight the pieces in your pile so you know where to find them! You can read more about it here or check it out in action below!

WHERE WAS THIS WHEN I WAS A KID?!? When I get a time machine, to heck with going back and watching the Pyramids get built. Instead, I'm heading back to the early 80s and handing little Goob my old iPhone with only Brickit installed.

I originally posted this a few years ago and just checked it out again today on a whim. The app seems to have come a long way since then and it's even now available on both Apple iOS and Google Android (they originally only had the iPhone app). Something tells me LEGO will buy this app and make it an “official” app down the road because it is just too darn cool. But there's no reason you can't download it today and get some new fun out of your LEGO collection!

Free National Park Pass for 4th Graders worth $80!

Published on Mar 18, 2024 at 8:37 pm · Disclosure

In addition to the free National Park Admission Days scattered throughout the year, did you know that 4th graders can get a free entrance pass worth $80 as well? Even better, these freebie passes work for the entire family!

Simply sign up here and then use your pass at any national park this summer. This pass will grant free entrance up to three adults and to all children under 16, as long as you're all traveling in the same car with your 4th grader. According to the fine print rules, the current season passes expire on August 31, 2024.

You'll need to print your pass and bring it in the car when you visit a park. Electronic copies aren't accepted and each pass has a unique code, which means you can't share it. When arriving at the park, either show the pass to a ranger or leave it on the dashboard of your car while you're out exploring the amazing scenery.

Don't forget you can also request free national park trip planning kits for select parks around the country.
