‘Health / Fitness’ Freebies


Free Prilosec OTC

Heartburn must be flaring in America right now, because we have yet another free Prilosec OTC offer available. However, I would like to formally request some free mosquito repellent instead. While grilling out last night, I was bitten approximately four quadrillion times. I can handle the heartburn from all the burgers I ate, but being turned into one giant mosquito bite is a bit of a drag!

Free Healthy To Go Drink Mix

Getting some free Healthy To Go drink mix samples and coupons are kind of tricky in that you have to do one extra step. Some might say that one measly extra step is actually quite easy, but I’d put money on it that these are the same people who can chew gum and walk at the same time. They’re wizards, if you ask me.

Anyway, when signing up, select “Other” for the source and then type in “KIWI SAMPLE.” You’ll then be able to download the coupons and the samples should arrive shortly.

Free Fitness DVD

Larry Scott must be famous if he has his picture with Arnold. Needless to say, I still haven’t heard of the dude, but if he has a free exercise DVD for your potbelly? Sure, I’ll sign up for it. I can use it as a coaster for my beer…

Free Discount Drug Card

Okay, so I’m confused here. I’ve had people send in this free Discount Drug Card offer for weeks now and I still don’t get how it works.

The website specifically says it’s a discount card to help people without health insurance. I guess I don’t understand how the makers of this drug card turn a profit, but I thought I’d post this and ask my fellow Hiffers if they have any experience with things like these. Do they actually work? I was able to print out my card in under a minute without giving out any info beyond my name, but I’ve never tried using it, hence the source of my confusion.

I called the toll free help number on the card and ended up having a chat with a somewhat helpful CSR. I asked who provided the service and he mentioned that the parent company is essentially a mail order pharmacy that works with insurance companies and thus are able to offer the discounts through their sheer size. He said average savings are around 20% and that most major pharmacies will accept the card.

I then wanted an assurance that this doesn’t charge you in any way. He said that the program provided by the parent company was free, but that some middle-men sites take the program and then sneakily ask for an enrollment fee, which the middle-men sites then keep. He said as long as you find a site that doesn’t ask for a credit card number in exchange for printing the card (like the one I linked to), then you shouldn’t pay a cent.

I don’t know, I’m just throwing this out there for anybody who might find it helpful. The CSR emphasized that this card isn’t meant to replace health insurance but instead help those without it. If any of you fall into that category, hopefully this will help you save a little money! And again, if you have experience with these, please share in the comments.

Free Airborne

This free Airborne page features a scantily clad male model while asking “who’s Sebastian?” Um, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say he’s the guy in the ad. Just a hunch. I admit, I could totally be wrong. But something in my gut tells me it’s the guy prancing around on the screen.

Instore: Free 10-Day Sample of Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair

I feel like the title alone is a bit of a mouthful, but I know that’s hardly the case after reading the PA announcement for work tomorrow night when I close.

Needless to say about tomorrow, Thursday, July 23rd from 5-9pm, Estée Lauder counters nationwide at department stores will be giving away free 10 day samples of their Advanced Night Repair cream. From what I’ve heard from the counter manager at the store that I work at, its phenomenal. They offered me some when I shaved my head at the end of June.

But that’s a story for another time…

Free Energizer Hearing Aid Battery Samples

I think the only thing that would make this free Energizer Hearing Aid Battery sample even cooler is if they sent a pair of the bunny slippers they show. Or even just a plush bunny. I’ve got a catapult that I could use that just keeps on going and going and going…

Free Move Free

This free Move Free sounds quite funny when you say it out loud. Heck, throw in a few repetitions and you’ve got yourself a tongue twister! It’ll start out sounding like free movie and then slowly devolve into brief “fr” sounds punctuated by a cow’s moo.

On an unrelated note, does anybody else put “Dr.” whenever it’s an option on a freebie form? No? Yeah…me neither. *sheepishly looks around*

Free Nicorette 20-Pack Gum

This free Nicorette 20-pack of gum from Walmart comes in either White Ice Mint or Cinnamon Surge flavors. You know, I love gum so much that I’m pondering taking up smoking so I can have an excuse to get this freebie. I should probably make a list of Pros and Cons first.

Let’s see here. On the one hand, I could get terminal cancer. But on the other, 20 free pieces of gum! Ugh, choices are so hard. Stupid free will.

Free Durex Condom, Lubricant, & More

We’ve posted a few Durex freebies in the past, but this free Durex products page seems to be new. In fact, instead of just one freebie, you can choose any combination of the four items below:

  • Durex Pleasuremax condom sample
  • Play™ lubricant sachets
  • Play™ Vibrations Pouch
  • Play™ 2 in 1 Massage 200ml bottle

I almost typed something about “being excited” to get these freebies, but then realized that could be construed in more ways than one.

Free Scrub Club Membership

Every so often a freebie comes along that’s so simple and so perfectly online that I have to stop and wonder if its too easy. And enter the Scrub Club.

With the recent outbreaks of swine flu scaring so many people away from pigs the way Outbreak scared people away from monkeys a few years ago, the government came up with a cool idea called The Scrub Club. And parents? Now as your kids are getting ready to go back to the sniffling sneezing schools with all of the neighbor kids whom you despise (including little Jimmy-picks-his-nose down the block)? Get your kids signed up for the Scrub Club today with their printable membership card. Even more than that? Get them some cool downloads and even cooler songs about washing their hands.

Besides, with these last few weeks and some last few vacations? More coloring pages and different songs other than Rafi and Kids Bop for the backseat might be nice, right?

Free Lactaid Supplement

And for all of the mornings after waking up after using my spare photocopies to mop up my messes? Well before that bowl of whatever had the best toy in it when I was shopping, I’d better take one of these free Lactaid supplement tablets. My stomach is already in enough turmoil with the alcohol and numbers that any little thing I can do to help me settle it? Works for me…

Free General Snus Smokeless Tobacco

Free General Snus Swedish Smokeless Tobacco – Same great cancer causing product without all the pesky smoke! I’m just bitter, because half of my family smokes. If your state laws don’t prohibit it, they’ll send you three trials of Dry Mini Mint, Wintergreen Portion, White Portion and Original Portion – so…hope you like portions.

It feels odd putting this in Health / Fitness, but what other category better suits it?

Free Zunspot

I hate to be a grammar Nazi, but I think somebody needs to point out that this free Zunspot sun spot remover is spelled wrong. That great big ball of fire in the sky is actually spelled S-U-N. I can understand how the typo occurred in the first place, what with the S and Z keys being right next to each other, but geez…you’d think somebody would have caught the mistake by now!

Free Drinkables Liquid Supplements

EDIT: Arg, they’ve removed the option to get a freebie.

I certainly hope these free Drinkables Liquid Supplements are in fact liquid. Have you ever tried drinking something that’s not in liquid form? It’s so hard! First you can’t force it down, then you start to get a dry mouth. And the choking! Don’t get me started on the choking.

Also, I think the comments are working properly again. And hey, it only took four hours of my weekend to fix! *grumbles under his breath like a crusty, old man*
