Free Luke Bryan Album

EDIT: The code is LONGHORN

When I found this free Luke Bryan download for his new album ‘Doin’ My Thing’, I wondered at first who Luke Bryan was. Then, after deciding that I didn’t really care because it was free music, I figured I should probably thank Longhorn Steakhouse too for sponsoring the free download. Needless to say, I got hungry on my way over and stopped in at Chili’s. Oops?

Free Sushi Advocacy Kit

I love sushi. I really truly do. There’s so much complexity to it that the fact that I’m going to get some reusable (read: plastic) chopsticks and some brochures about using ocean caught seafood over farmed seafood in this free sushi advocacy kit? Sounds good.

What amuses me, though, is the brochures are to have a conversation with my local sushi chef. Last time I tried to speak to him, he just brandished his knife my way and that was the end of that!

Free Childrens Songs

If it wasn’t bad enough that I just admitted to listening to Miley Cyrus after my improbable leave of absence, well, now I really want to download some of these free songs for kids from this Music for Little People site.

Why would I listen to something so eclectic?

Well, when I close at work, I actually turn on my music in the store to give it something a little… different. This is especially important once the Christmas music starts in another month…

Free Creation Festival Sampler

Wow, where has September gone? I mean, seriously! When I looked up, it was the beginning of the month, and now? The month is almost over, I’ve been to St. Louis and back for work, and my alma mater (go UCF Knights!) is 2-1 and keeping it real.

Maybe there’s some sort of higher power to this all and I should listen to something like this free Creation Festival sampler on my iPod Touch. Or maybe? I should just bypass it and switch over to the new Miley Cyrus. What? “Party in the U.S.A.” is addictive!

Free Exederm Skincare Sample

EDIT: Unfortunately this freebie is no longer available.

When I’ve been walking to the bus stop before work everyday, I’ve been a bit surprised. I mean, its August and its in the 60’s outside! That’s not August weather, if you ask me. Then again, this is the first Midwest August that I’m fully experiencing, so maybe I missed it.

But this free Exederm skincare sample will definitely help with the dry winter coming up in another few months. Why, when I need a humidifier for each room of the house and a portable one too? Then you know you have issues…

Free Taylor Lautner Poster

I don’t know who Taylor Lautner is, but I’m sure some teenage girl would enjoy this free poster of him as much as Andy Dufresne enjoyed his Rita Hayworth poster.

As you can see, I don’t have much to say today… Maybe Goob will be around later with more…

Free Cheese Posters

Cabot Cheese looks like they’re trying to show how cool cheese is with these free cheese posters. To me, this makes perfect sense. I mean, if cheese wasn’t refrigerated, it wouldn’t be cool, right? I mean, duh?

Man, I’m so square sometimes…

Free Poultry Timer

When I first saw this free Purina Poultry timer, I thought it was a great way to tell when my beer butt chicken was done…

Until I realized it was for feeding the chickens and not me. Ooops?

Free Game of Bowling Today

The last time one of my friends and I went bowling, her remark was that I must be a serious bowler. I mean, with my name all etched on my ball and everything? I guess I made an impression, even if I sucked with only a 125.

But with this free game of bowling coupon for today, September 5th, well, there’s another activity for parents to bring their kids on for this labor day weekend. With no limit to number of people in a party with coupons, a family of five could just pay for some shoes and get a free game of bowling per person! Not bad at all, especially if you have a center near you.

With a few centers near me? Looks like I can just do a little bit of driving and get in more than just one game…

Free Abuelita Sample

I don’t shop much down the Hispanic aisle at the grocery store. Okay, that’s a lie because the Chinese food is down the same aisle and I’m Jewish, so next to the gefilte fish jar is my beloved chow mein. Needless to say, I’m not too sure what this free Abuelita sample is, but I know that its granules and not a tablet. Hot chocolate of some sort? All I know is that its free and there’s also a $.75 off coupon too that you can print to go with it, so that’s good enough for me!

Free Coffee at Borders

Borders is at it again and must know that with the holiday weekend? People are looking for things to do.

So with this free small cup of coffee coupon that’s good through Monday? I might have to bring a few, wait for some shift changes, and spend all day reading. I mean, I do have Saturday and Sunday off from work…

Free Bottle of Water

Wednesday Mornings are one of the three mornings from the week that I say aren’t fair game to mess with people. Mondays are sort of just “there” as are Thursdays, but on Tuesdays and Fridays? Fair game, if you ask me.

Alas, though, this free bottle of water coupon for any Racetrack is messing with me on a Wednesday. With no Racetrack station on my trek into work, it looks like I’ll be getting Dasani from the vending machine in the breakroom again or drinking from the water fountains today…

Free Kashi Cereal Sample

Dear Kashi -

I know its been a while since I’ve really had cereal for breakfast. I mean, look at me now, enjoying cold homemade pizza as breakfast.

But honestly? Your three free sample options for your cereal are tempting. But I ask you this:

Do any of them have cheese, caramelized onions, or chicken sausage?

I think not.

Free $10 Shell or Jiffy Lube Gift Card

EDIT: They’ve most likely hit their limit on this one.

I don’t know much about cars, so when I took the 7 question quiz for this free $10 Shell or Jiffy Lube gift card, I just hoped I had the right answers. Thankfully, the questions were all fairly intuitive, and you only need to get an 85% to win. So if you get something wrong? Just write down the answers and do it again…

No, I won’t share my answers with you. That’d be cheating and teacher would smack the back of my hand with a ruler…

Free Steak & Shake Mint Cookies & Cream Milkshake

I’m up way too early after getting to bed way too late. Story of my life, it seems, but at least I’ve got my vacation coming up and my wife coming home…

Maybe, though, this free Steak & Shake Mint Cookies & Cream Milkshake coupon that’s good till Wednesday will cheer me up. Just maybe…

It’d cheer me up more if it was any other flavor, though. I’m not much a fan of mint cookies & cream. Le sigh.
