‘Food’ Freebies


Coupon: Free Fazoli’s Spaghetti (w/drink)

Okay, what is up with all the free food coupons? This will be the fourth one I’ve posted today and seventh currently on the main page of HIF. I’m not complaining, but let’s just say my jeans are already tight enough. A man needs some free fruit or veggies once in a while!

Oh well, until then, here’s a coupon for a free Fazoli’e small spaghetti with a drink purchase. It doesn’t expire until November 15th and you can print it as many times as you want, so here’s to eating a ton of free carbs! It’ll be like reliving my high school days where I ran cross country. I was never that good, but I loved the part where I got to eat as much as humanly possible leading up to a race. In hindsight, that may have been why I was so slow.

Coupon: Free Ted’s Montana Grill Entree

EDIT: This coupon offer is no longer available.

There’s a coupon offer available for a free Ted’s Montana Grill entree worth $8 if you answer the quiz question with The World’s Largest Buffalo. The coupon will be e-mailed to you within 7-10 days and their locations are a bit scattered, but thankfully they do have a few in Montana. I would have been forced to ridicule them mercilessly otherwise.

Coupon: Free Panda Express Meal (w/purch.)

If you take this coupon to your local Panda Express and buy a 2 or 3-Entree Plate, you can get a single serving entree item free. I’ve never been to a Panda Express before, but … ok, I’ll just come out and ask it: they don’t serve pandas as food, right? I don’t care how delicious they may be, there’s no way I could bring myself to eat a panda. Pretty much all black & white animals are off limits for being too cute: pandas, penguins, dalmations. I guess maybe I could eat a zebra if push came to shove. But I wouldn’t enjoy it!

You’ve got until Tuesday, October 27, 2009 to use the coupon.

Free Kashi TLC Chewy Granola Bar

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to better link to this free Kashi TLC chewy granola bar1 other than this: click the link above and then click on the banner that shows up. You’ll then be taken to Kashi’s website where you can sign up. Think of the extra hoop we have to jump through as a mini-treasure hunt. Or better yet, pretend we’re dolphins! And the hoop’s on fire! And there’s an all you can eat buffet of fish on the other side!

I don’t know why I’m so excited about pretending to be a dolphin, but you’d be kidding yourself if you thought I wasn’t making clicking noises right now.

  1. This link was found via MyCokeRewards.com, so there’s no telling how much longer it’ll be available. []

Free KFC Grilled Chicken on 10/26

The Associated Press is reporting that on Monday, October 26, anybody can stop in and get a free piece of grilled chicken at KFC. If you’ve been a fan of freebies for a while, you might remember they had a similar offer back in May. They were so overwhelmed with requests that they had to issue rainchecks. I guess that’s what happens when Oprah talks about it. They promise to be ready this time around, so here’s to a free lunch this coming Monday!

Also, if you’re a regular of KFC, they have a dozen or so printable coupons on their site.

Free Cookie & Hot Chocolate at B&N (10/24)

This coupon for a free small cookie & kids-sized hot chocolate at Barnes & Noble is only valid on Saturday, October 24. I especially enjoy the fine print that reads “not valid at BN.com.” Oh, really? You mean I can’t order a free cookie and hot chocolate off a book store’s website? I never would have guessed!

They have some additional coupons on there for certain items, but I’m most interested in the cookie.

Free T.G.I. Friday’s Appetizer (w/ drink)

Here’s a coupon for a free T.G.I. Friday’s appetizer with the purchase of a drink at the bar between 4pm – close. There’s no limit on the drink (it can be alcoholic or non) and the coupon expires on November 1, 2009. I guess I know where I’ll be on Halloween. To heck with giving out candy, I want free food!

There’s also a coupon for a $5 sandwich or salad for lunch, but how much do they normally cost? Is that even a decent deal?

Free $10 Kraft Rebate

This holiday season, Kraft is offering a free $10 rebate if you purchase any 10 of Nabisco Crackers, Easy Cheese, or Planters Nuts before 11/30/09. Check out the rebate form for a full list of qualifying items, as there are 11 in all. It’s not a money-making deal, but if you already buy their products, you might as well take advantage of the free money they’re offering back to you!

There’s also a $1/2 Nabisco crackers coupon available on their site. It’s via SmartSource, but for some reason my computer was having trouble printing it. Anybody else having the same trouble?

Free Recipe Holder

Viva paper towels is giving away free recipe holders to the first 5,000 people to send a postcard or index card with their name, address, age and email (optional) to:

Food Network Magazine/VIVA Giveaway
P.O. Box 9221
Lyndhurst, NJ 07071

I haven’t seen this offer on many other freebie sites, so if you throw a card in the mail today, chances are you’ll get a freebie. In semi-related news, Coupons.com has a $0.40/2 Viva Towels Big Roll coupon available. In completely non-related news, I’m having trouble focusing today. There’s a new episode of Radio Lab sitting in iTunes and I’ve got a copy of Battlestar Galactica’s The Plan just waiting to be watched! Too bad I’m my own boss or I’d totally call in sick today.

EDIT: SmartSource also has the $0.40/2 Viva Towels Big Roll coupon available!

Coupon: Free Edible Arrangements Fruit

Facebook Freebies

If you have a local Edible Arrangements, then become a fan of them on Facebook and receive a coupon via e-mail for a free Edible Arrangements 6-Piece Dipped Fruit that retails for $15. The coupon is valid through 11/21/09 and you could theoretically use it to make an order on-line, but then you’d have to pay shipping.

Unfortunately, chocolate covered fruit is supposedly not healthy for you. I hate to say it, but I’m sick and tired of doctors. They’re always telling me that everything I do is unhealthy. I’d like for them to explain to me how I’m supposed to get through the day without copious amounts of liquor and fatty foods. It’s impossible!

And as always, you should become a fan of HIF on Facebook! We have a fun time chatting and hanging out over there.

Free Crock-Pot Recipe e-Book

This free crock-pot recipe e-book has 33 total recipes in it and I couldn’t be happier. I just may live through the winter now! I don’t know who invented the crock-pot, but they deserve an award. It’s literally a magic pot – I throw in a bunch of raw ingredients in the morning and by dinner time, I have something edible and tasty. Why don’t we have more devices like this in our lives?

To get the recipe book, enter your e-mail address in the box that pops up on the first page and then select the option to skip straight to the recipe book. I didn’t print mine out since it’s 50 pages long, but I did print one or two recipes that I’ll try this week.

IS: Free Jack In The Box Sandwich on 10/20

EDIT: They changed the fine print to say that this offer is only valid in the Seattle area.

If you don’t mind purchasing a large drink, you can get a free Jack In The Box grilled sandwich on Tuesday, October 20. This is a promotion through Jack’s Secret Society of Cool People and Holy Crap, this is the best freebie ever. Are you telling me that if I get this freebie, I’m not only in a secret society, but also officially cool? To heck with working today, I’m gonna go camp out in front of my local Jack to make sure I’m the first person in line!

Coupon: Free Happy Baby Organic Food

There’s a coupon available for a free Happy Baby Organic Food product. I don’t have a baby and doubt I can get one before the 11/10/09 expiration date, but if you happen to already have one and live near a store that carries this product, you’re all set.

IS: Free Trident Gum at Walgreens

Walgreens currently has a sale going on where, when combined with some free printable coupons, you can get two free packs of Trident gum between now and the end of the month! First, there’s a free Trident Layers Gum coupon on HIF’s SS page for $1/2. Then, you also get $1 Register Reward when you buy two packs. So you pay $1 out of pocket today, but that $1 RR can be used on anything during your next visit, thus making the gum in effect free! Make sure you stick around for the $1 RR to print out though – I almost walked out of the store this afternoon without grabbing it.

Coupon: Free Food at QuikTrip

Too bad QuikTrip convenience stores are only located in the Midwest, away from where I live, because they have a free food coupon available at Coupons.com. The coupon is for a free deli sandwich, wrap, or salad – no purchase necessary! The coupon won’t show up unless you have a QuikTrip in your zip code, but some zips I tried made the coupon show up, such as: 85031, 63010, 66109, 30106, and 30339.

Some coupons expires on 10/21 and others on 10/25, but either way you’ll need to make a quick trip to use it! Haha, get it? Hello? Is this thing on?
