Freebies and free stuff

If you print out this coupon, you can take it into your local Sephora store inside a JCPenney to get either a free LORAC TANtalizer Baked Bronzer or a Mini Couture Shine Liquid Lipstick. I know this is probably a silly question, but I can’t slather the Baked Bronzer on my turkey this Thanksgiving in place of cooking it, right? It can’t possibly taste any worse than if I cooked it, but then again, my family probably wouldn’t appreciate the inevitable trip to the hospital. Ugh, they can be so demanding!

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!

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.

Log-in or register on their site and then on the left hand side will be a coupon for a free pair of Victoria’s Secret pink panties plus $10 off any bra. I don’t really need a bra, then again, I don’t really need any pink panties either. But they’re free… Hmmm…

The coupon is valid until November 9 and it says you’ll need to bring a valid photo ID, so don’t use a fake name like Dr. Faker McFakerson. Unless that’s your real name, in which case, I’d love to meet your parents sometime. I have a feeling we’d hit it off.

EDIT: Doh, that was Hiffed quick.

Coupons.com has a free $3 coupon for Neosporin Lip Therapy [FF link] [IE link] [Safari link] and currently, CVS is selling it for right around $5.50. However, if you use your free Extra Care card when checking out, you get an addition $2.50 off instantly.

My very remedial math skills tell me that $5.50-$3-$2.50=$0, but then again, I just tried to drink the hot wax from the candle sitting next to me. What?! It smells like pumpkin pie and I’m hungry!

The instant $2.50 savings should last throughout the month of October, so be sure to print the coupon soon and then get your free lip therapy within the next few weeks.

White Castle currently has two free printable coupons available (listed below), but I’d like to take this time to ask why America has become enamored with sliders. I remember seeing them for the first time and quickly glancing around for the garden gnomes they were obviously made for. Undeterred, I began opening all the trash cans and jump around corners while screaming “GOTCHA!” My fellow patrons didn’t join in the hunt though. Why is it always left for me to find the hidden mythical creatures in our world?!

Whatever, here are the coupons!

• Buy one cheeseburger slider, get one free (10/31 exp.)
• Buy one breakfast sandwich, get one free (10/18 exp.)

EDIT: They’ve pulled the coupon down, so YMMV if you printed it beforehand.

This coupon for a free 12 oz. coffee, cappuccino, hot chocolate, or tea at 7/11 doesn’t expire until 10/31. Regrettably, you have to go to the store to cash in on this offer. Well to heck with that! It’s mid-October now, which means my self-imposed hibernation has kicked in. I hate the cold weather so much that I refuse to leave my house from now until late March. It’s a strict regimen but on the bright side it makes me enough of a bear to give me that okay to roar at anything in sight. My dogs usually get used to it by January.

Pepboys has a coupon available for a free Seasonal Prep Evaluation that doesn’t expire until 10/31 and is worth $29.98 in free maintenance.

• Check Exterior Lights
• Check Wipers
• Complete Coolant System Evaluations
• Battery/Starting/and Charging System Evaluation

Is any of that stuff really needed? I don’t know, it seems like they’re just trying to get you into the store so that they can sell you some more services. Then again, I’m the guy who drove his car for 7,000 miles without an oil change in high school, so what the heck do I know?

Holy moly, that flu was evil! I apologize for taking off in the middle of the week, but here’s a secret: I’m a big wimp. As soon as my temperature hits 100, I curl up in the fetal position, suck my thumb, and start crying out for my mommy. It’s also what I do when confronted with physical violence or spiders, but that’s beside the point. I’m a semi-functioning human again, so back to the freebies and thanks to everybody who sent in their regards over the past few days!

Oh, whoops, I almost forgot about the freebie. The next free Lowe’s Build & Grow Clinic is this Saturday, October 10, from 10-11am. They’ll be building a ball toss and space is limited, so register now if you think you’ll go!

EDIT: I got an email saying this was no longer available, but I suspect that it still is. I’ll hunt for a new link when I’m feeling better tomorrow.

If you sign up with CVS’ photo center (click the banner above), you’ll get up to 50 free photo prints that you can pick up at your local store. I was gonna give it a whirl just now but I have no idea where my camera is and my body is too sore to move. In fact, I know I recently asked any Hiffers who are scientist to invent edible shampoo, but I’d really appreciate it if they suspended research on that and instead developed a cure for whatever is ravaging my lungs right now. Some people say it’s the flu, but I’m pretty certain it’s a mutant alien species.

I blame the new Starbucks offer on why I cut myself shaving this morning. Sure, I sliced myself a good 3 minutes after the Starbucks commercial came on, but I hypothesize that’s because I’m a bit slow in the morning. Case in point: I was shaving with toothpaste.

Anyway, in case you haven’t seen the commercials, if you stop in at Starbucks between October 2 and 5 and take part in their VIA Taste Challenge, you’ll get a coupon for a free Starbucks Tall brewed coffee on your next visit. Of course, for me, “next visit” means walking outside, spinning in a circle, then venturing back in. I call it the Reverse Grandpa Simpson.

Holy. Crap. A fifth in-store freebie for tomorrow? Am I being punk’d? Sure, Toys Backwards-R Us is hosting a free Geoffrey’s Birthday Party this Saturday, September 26, from 12-3 pm. There will be a birthday parade, activities and free giveaways. But this just doesn’t seem right. Five in-store freebies on the same day has never happened before and frankly, I’m scared. I’m pretty sure this was one of the ancient Mayans predictions of the impending Armageddon.

Geez, what is with this Saturday and freebies? The free Whip It movie screening is the fourth freebie available tomorrow. I don’t usually post movie screenings, but this offer is available in a few dozen large cities. You can RSVP online, but I wasn’t able to as there aren’t any screenings in my tiny town. But feel bad for me, there’s plenty to do around here. Why just last week we got our third stop light! Some friends and I are gonna go watch it change colors tonight. Friday nights don’t get much better than that!

Here’s the movie trailer in case you haven’t seen any commercials for it yet.

This free Clarins Skin Facial Treatment at your nearest Lord & Taylors isn’t until October 22-24, but apparently space is limited, so you’ll want to register now. The advance notice is good for yours truly as it’ll give me plenty of time to figure out what in the heck this freebie actually is. Why is it called a “skin facial?” Can’t your just say “facial” or are there other types of facial treatments that completely ignore the skin? And if so, what in the world are they?!

Walmart currently has Honey Bunches of Oats cereal on sale for $2. If you use this free $2/1 printable coupon, then it’s free! Make sure you turn your speakers down before printing out the coupon as they have an autoplay video that’s highly annoying.

True story: as a kid, I used to think this cereal was for horses since it had “oats” in the title. For the life of me, I couldn’t understand why my parents kept buying it. I was certain they were either hiding a horse somewhere in the backyard or secretly evolved horses that somehow took over my parent’s bodies.
