Hey, It’s Free!

I’m not much of a cook, but I try my hardest. And by “try my hardest” I mean “take food and then drench it in seasonings.” I don’t even care if this free McCormick steak seasoning isn’t any good. By the time I’m through cooking with it, there will be so many other seasonings mixed with it that your taste buds will probably implode after only two bites.

Yesterday morning, my wife and I went to Panera before she had an eye appointment. And just after one small hazelnut coffee from them, I felt like I could run faster than a speeding bullet and stop train cars.

So I wonder how I’d feel after drinking all of this free Cuisinart coffee sample? I guess my caffeine tolerance is going down again seeing I’m not drinking three energy drinks a day…

EDIT: Looks like this one is dead now folks…

Its just after 8am here in Casa de Cohen and there’s something disturbing about this Caffeine-Free Teccino Herbal Coffee sample. I’m just trying to figure out if its the words “caffeine-free” or “herbal coffee.” Something about being up this early makes one or the other of those combinations a bit off kilter to me…

Well, kinda. Head on over to Cheerios website and give them your e-mail address. Then they’ll e-mail you on July 28 when their Cheerios Challenge starts and offer you a way to get some free Cheerios. I’m not sure if it’ll be a printable coupon of it you’ll be able to sign up via the Internet for it, but I do know that I don’t case since I love Cheerios. I used to think they tasted like cardboard, but now I kinda dig the plainness of them.

It makes me wonder if they still taste like cardboard and I’ve just grown to like that taste though. I’ll go munch on a few old boxes outside and let you know how it turns out.

Whenever I see the Fiber One commercials, I think of just eating a cardboard box. Just like in the commercials. I guess, though, its not as bad as they make it out to be or something. Or if it was, maybe they’re just trying to brainwash us all with these free samples of their new products with coupons. I don’t know about you, but when I get coupons, it makes everything better.

I’ll eat almost anything that’s put in front of me. Same goes for drinking. So when I saw this free sample of Tazo Tea that you get when you click the little link on the bottom, well, I couldn’t turn it down.

Of course, this means I actually have to wait for it to come in the mail, but if I’m lucky it’ll be raining that day and I can just put the envelope in my mouth.

Speaking of free food today, if you head in to Chick-Fil-A today and are dressed like a cow? You get free food there too.

Full cow costume? Free meal.
Partical cow costume? Free entrée.

And seriously, dress like a cow? Well if you don’t have a cow costume hanging up in the back of your closet (and if you do, I need to party with you), they give you tips on their website.

EDIT: I nearly forgot. If you do participate in this offer, please take a picture and post it on the forums at the link below! We’d love to see what you can come up with!

This morning while watching the news they were announcing this and I looked down at my clock. Wow, 7:11AM on 7/11. Can’t beat talking about 7/11’s 7.11 ounce free Slurpees today at exactly 7:11AM on 7/11.

Just, don’t wait till 7:11PM on 7/11, because then you won’t be able to hit up all of the participating 7/11 stores in your area for your free 7.11 ounce Slurpee.

I think the only year this could have been cooler in would have been Ye Ole Middle Ages on 7/11/711. I mean, seriously. How cool would the Medieval Bloggers be back then? I’d imagine something like this:

“Forsooth, this doth refresheth mine thirst and quencheth me from thy dragon sun nigh!”

I hardly ever post any freebies available only to our Canadian neighbors, but I feel it’s time to offer them some free Folgers coffee. This makes me wonder if their Folgers coffee is better than ours somehow. What’s up, Folgers? Why only offer this to Canadians? Are you putting gold bars in theirs or giving them the “real” coffee? I smell a conspiracy!

Oh no, wait, that was just the dog I was smelling. False alarm, everybody!

There’s a chance that this free Pero Instant Natural Beverage won’t come since it looks like it’s from a small Ma & Pop type company, but I’m willing to take the risk. Why? Because I think it’s time for me to admit that I’m addicted to caffeine. If I don’t drink at least twenty gallons of coffee a day, I basically turn into a blob of incompetence. I need to start waning myself off this stuff and I figure a freebie is the best way to start!

I always wanted to be an explorer. The thought of finding new civilizations and uncharted lands sounded like a good time to me. Then I realized I was extremely lazy, so I went to my backup plan, which I still think is pretty darn good. There’s so much to explore in my own home! Just yesterday, I was exploring under my couch for the ancient Lost Cheese Doodle and I found a nickle! Tomorrow I plan on venturing into the mysterious Laundry Room that I’ve heard so much about. I think we can all agree the winner in this equation is me.

On, yeah, the freebie that sparked this moronic diatribe was this free Explorer’s Bounty coffee that I just found

EDIT: Hope y’all got the tacos, because this is dead now.

I’m glad I just heard about this one, because it’s good for today only. If you bring in a gas receipt to any Jack In The Box restaurant, you can get two free tacos. I’ve never had a Jack In The Box taco, but who knows, maybe they’re awesome. Here’s a store locator if you’re not sure whether or not you have a joint nearby.

I’m not sure what I’m happier about: a free sample of Stride gum (which is AWESOME!) or the excuse this freebie gives me to link to this fantastic video. I’ve been a fan of “Dancing Matt” ever since his first video a few years ago and I find it kinda cool that the very company which sponsored his last two trips around the globe is also giving away some gum! It doesn’t hurt that my favorite gum to begin with is Stride, so go snag yourself a freebie and just watch that video over and over until it arrives.

Heck to the yes, I love these free MultiGrain Cheerios. I’m actually a huge all around Cheerios fan, from the regular to the honey nut to those weird yogurt burst ones. These are really good with some ice cold milk though. Now if only I could get some milk for free.

Hahaha, as a matter of fact, that reminds of some classic Goob dialogue from my college days. I was living with my good friend Fellner and late one night we were both in the kitchen:

Goob: Awe man, we’re out of milk. We really need to get a cow.
Fellner: THAT’S your solution?!
Goob: You got a better idea?
Fellner: ……

June 6th (TODAY!) is National Donut Day. Which means you can get a free donut from your local Krispy Kreme store, as they just sent me an e-mail saying so.

I’d love to type more and attempt (and fail!) to make a funny / witty joke right now, but my Internet is acting like it’s powered by a hamster right now. FYI, Comcast sucks.

I’ve posted this free Folgers Gourmet coffee offer before, but this is a new version of it (read: the old ones are dead!) and it’s an extremely slow week for freebies right now. Oh well, we can all just drink our coffee and patiently wait for the next big wave of samples to come our way.

EDIT: Blarg, looks like the link is dead now. I’m searching for a new copy of the coupon. Hope to have it soon.

If you live near a Subway “restaurant”, then be sure to print out this coupon for a free bag of Baked Veggie Crisps. I’ve never had these before, but I do know that other similar products taste awesome. Plus, I literally live within a 30 second walk to a Subway, so you know I’m printing this out and getting a bag. Heck, it could be a coupon for a free cup of ice and I’d still probably go get it!

This expires on June 15, 2008.

I bet my little sister will love these free Betty Crocker Warm Delight Minis (geez that’s an ironically long name for a “mini” product). She’s at that age where she loves to cook and bake things for the family, which is a-ok with me, but unfortunately she’s still learning. Take for instance the last time she tried to make brownies. Somewhere along the line the recipe got confusing and long store short, she used so much olive oil it was basically a brownie soup.

I still ate it though.

EDIT: Dead now

This coupon for some free Yoplait yogurt looks promising, but only if you don’t live in California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Jersey, North Dakota and Tennessee. Why? Because apparently Yoplait doesn’t like giving away free stuff to residence in those states. I’m not sure how big HIF is up in North Dakota or Idaho, but hopefully it’s minimal.

I missed the free Dunkin Donuts coffee and free McDonald’s chicken sandwich offers that were given away yesterday (stupid me!), so I wanted to post this free Walmart ice cream sundae a few days early. This Sunday, May 18, Walmart will give away free ice cream sundaes at each of their 2,532 Walmart Supercenters. Woooo!

To find your nearest Supercenter, use this link and don’t forget to enjoy your free ice cream sundae this weekend!
