Outdoors Freebies


Free Dog Leash and Pedometer

Free Dog Leash Pedometer

Jenny Craig and Purina have teamed up to give away “Power of Two” packs, which include a free dog leash and pedometer. The only problem I see with this is that I now have to start exercising. Think it’ll work if I put the pedometer on my dog and let him run around the house for a bit?

Free 3M Carabiner

Free 3M Carabiner

My gut tells me this will die lightning quick, so watch a short video, fill out the form, and get a free carabiner from 3M.

Free Growable Earth Day Cards

Free Growable Earth Day Cards

EDIT: Whoa. We Hiffed the crap out of that one.

Think there’s any chance I can nurture these four free growable Earth Day card/seed hybrids for at least a year? Nope, you’re right. I, kid you not, couldn’t even keep a cactus alive. Turns out they do actually need water every now and then.

The signup link is at the very bottom of the page.

Free State Maps Guide

Free State Maps

A few years ago I made a post with links to physical free state maps that was well received. I decided to revisit the post recently and transfer it to it’s own page, kind of like how I did with the birthday freebies section. I’ll keep it updated regularly since I find these maps go great in glove boxes and even bug out bags for those who have them.

I was able to find free physical maps for all 50 states, though many come in yearly tourism guides. You can of course rip those out for easier storage, but I also checked with each state’s department of transportation and found free foldable maps for a decent chunk of the country. And finally I rewrote the “jokes” for most of the states, so at the very least you have something to read if you get bored at work today!

Free Crestline Fishing Ruler

Free Crestline Fish Ruler

This free Crestline fish ruler is new to me and looked a little off, but my research1 showed it’s an annual offer that’s lived up to sending out the freebie in years past.

Note you need to confirm the request through your email. Have fun sifting through all the spam in your freebie email!

  1. okay, fine, I Googled around for 10 minutes while drinking coffee this morning []

Free Honk Suppressor

Free Honk Suppressor

What the fu…

I love that I can still become speechless after discovering a new freebie like this free 76 Honk Suppressor. I’ll let the video below do all the talking for me.

Free ECOgrade Photodegradable Bag

Free ECOgrade Photodegradable Bag

EDIT: We totally Hiffed their site. So…dead?

The selling point of this free ECOgrade photodegradable trash bag, other than being free, is supposed to be that it’s biodegradable. I foresee two major problems here. First, what happens to the garbage after the bag degrades? Does it start blowing out of landfills? Call me crazy, but we need our trash to morph into flowers over time as well.

Also what if I want to throw away a pile dirt right now? Will it speed up the degrading process and cause the dirt to get all over my kitchen? No, stop asking why I have mounds of dirt in my house. You’re focusing on the wrong aspect of this scenario.

Free Megabus Tickets

If you’re planning to travel between Jan. 9 and Feb. 28, 2013 and you live near a large city on the east coast, you might want to pick up one of 200,000 free Megabus tickets. Plug in your travel details and use code TRYMEGABUS to see if there are any free seats left on the bus. Now who wants to join me in going to Boston?!

Free Sun Care Kit

Free Sun Care Kit

When signing up for this free sun care kit, make sure to use your state’s abbreviation instead of spelling it out. The kit itself comes with a sun hat (which differs greatly from a regular hat), protective lip balm (way better than destructive lip balm), a travel bag (MUST USE FOR TRAVELING ONLY), and sunscreen.

Free Weber BBQ Seasonings

Free Weber BBQ Seasonings

EDIT: These are now expired.

There are only 10,000 free Weber BBQ seasonings available on Facebook, but I haven’t seen many other sites post this, so tons of Hiffers should be able to snag a sample. Now when I forget I have burgers on the grill, their charred remains will at least be seasoned!

Of course right as I published this, their signup form started spitting out errors when you hit submit. You may have to try back in a few minutes/hours.
