Request free outdoor samples and freebies for your garden, hike, or next trip to the park. Common freebies include sunscreen, seeds, park admission, and more!
On May 14, you can get a free plant from Lowe's in honor of Mother's Day! However, you must register for this ahead of time and registration begins on April 30! I'll schedule a reminder for this at the end of the month.
After registering and selecting your store, they'll email you redemption code to bring into your local Lowe's store to pick up your free plant for Mom.
SocialNature currently has 8 free trials you can apply for! After creating an account, simply head to their Products page and make sure to select United States on the left sidebar. You should then be able to click “Apple to Try” on a huge variety of freebies!
As you can see from the items already listed, there are tens of thousands of people applying for these samples, so you're not guaranteed to get each item. But with so many freebies being offered, you're bound to get lucky in many of them! Plus you'll move to the top of the list if the brand is looking for your specific demographic. So mom's who buy stuff for their families are almost always offered freebies 🙂
Many of these offers are for full-sized products. For example, this offer for free plant based chicken is worth $9.99!
As somebody who recently bought herb and vegetable seeds to grow in a window garden, I really hope I get a few of those Back to Roots freebies. Worst case, I end up killing my plants, but use the freebie on my hair roots!
I'm not much of an animal hunter. I have, however, participated in many a human hunts as my teams main “Seeker” during late night games of Manhunt and Capture the Flag, so I think I'll get myself this free Ducks Unlimited decal for my window. Decals should arrive within 2-4 weeks.
In order to get this, scroll down near the bottom of the page and click the blue “SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER” button.
This freebie has been around since 2007! It's not every day I find a freebie in our archives that's been active since the Bush Administration.
Precision Planting is once again giving away free emergence flagging kits. These contain little flags for gardeners to flag their seeds, which lets you mark each plant with a day of emergence so you can compare throughout the growing season.
I didn't sign up for this since the only thing I can grow is impatience at slow walkers. So if the form stops working down the line, please let me know in the comments!
Take the Butterfly Hero pledge and you'll get a free butterfly garden starter kit. Now I'm no lepidopterist, but I know a butterfly starter kit involves two butterflies who realllly like each other and a few milkweed flowers. Thankfully this freebie includes the seeds to start growing those flowers!
It turns out the monarch butterflies are in trouble and need more milkweed. So, pledge to grow the plants and help save the butterflies. In exchange, you'll get a free starter kit from the National Wildlife Federation. They're like the Federation in Star Trek, just without all the space ships!
This has been an annual offer since 2018 and it expires extremely fast each year! I wouldn't put off signing up if you want it.
Rare Seeds is giving away a free Baker Creek seed catalog.
Our free full-color catalog features many of our favorite varieties (the whole seed catalog features more information and varieties) — 92 pages! It is always our pleasure to share these beautiful, healthful treasures with gardeners and growers everywhere. Ships December to March each year to U.S. residents only.
This freebie should arrive in 3-4 weeks.
The next free National Parks admission day is right around the corner. These 5 annual freebie go great with our free highway maps list!
So get out there, breathe in some fresh air, and report back to me how relaxing and peaceful it is. Just don't take your family! I went with mine last year and long story short, they left me behind. Unfortunately for them, I'm like one of those cool dogs from a Reader's Digest story and I walked all the way home in just under a week.
I've written about these free National Park Admission days since they debuted in 2009 and the numbers are finally in. Hiffers love them! Maybe you could even end up like Mikah Meyer and visit all 419 National Parks! It only took him 3 years. 😂
If you can't make it out to your local National Park, you can do the next best thing and read up on some parks! Sure, it's not the same as actually visiting, but it has significantly fewer mosquitoes and poison ivy patches.
Here's a reactived signup form offering free La Roche-Posay Anthelios Melt-in Milk Sunscreen SPF 60. The Anthelios Clear Skin oil-free SPF 60 sunscreen is intended for your face, which is super convenient because that's where the sun shines a lot.
There's also this reactived request form offering free La Roche-Posay Anthelios UV Correct Sunscreen SPF 70.
Both freebies should arrive in 4-8. Hopefully the sun will be back by then. *glares outside at gloomy winter weather*
They also claim to “help absorb excess oil and reduce shine,” which totally sounds fake. It also has a “powerful antioxidant complex to help protect skin from free radicals caused by UV rays.”
Mmmhmmmm.
Make a free account here, then fill out this form to get a free Milwaukee Die-Cut decal.
Whoa, die-cut?! Nobody better be dying on my watch over a freebie. There are plenty for everyone and they'll arrive in 4 weeks.
Marlboro isn't the only tobacco company giving away freebies! American Spirit is once again offering free cigarette butt pouches to help keep from littering the Earth with your used butts. Annnnnnd now I'm giggling like an 8 year old.
These portable litter receptacles help keep the environment clean while letting you smoke on the go without leaving a trace behind. Each mailing comes with three heavy-duty yet extremely lightweight cigarette waste pouches. These disposable pocket ashtrays have a fireproof inner foil packaging to contain smoked butts and an outer plastic packaging that strongly seals the butts and smell inside.
In addition to smoked butts, they can also contain all types of cigarette litter, including plastic wrapping, loose tobacco, foil pack liners, rolling paper, and even ash. Once full, smokers can either dispose of the pouch or recycle them for free through the TerraCycle Cigarette Waste Recycling Program. With funding from Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company, the waste collected through this program is recycled into a variety of industrial products, such as plastic pallets, and any remaining tobacco is recycled as compost. For every pound of cigarette waste you send, TerraCycle also donates $1 to Keep America Beautiful Cigarette Litter Prevention.
The best thing is you can request these freebies every two weeks! They'll typically send coupons as well.
To get started, you'll need to register and be over 21 years of age. You only have to do this once, then simply log into American Spirits every two weeks to request more freebies. Once logged in, select the “Butt Pouches” link near the top. You should now see a “GET FREE BUT POUCHES” link.
If you've already logged in, the offer should appear directly here as well.
These free pouches were originally available in celebration of Earth Day, but they became so popular that they continued giving them away throughout the year.
The Global Myopia Awareness Coalition is offering a free Screen Staycation kit for families or guardians while supplies last. It looks like this will include sunscreen and a pair of sunglasses.
I have a feeling we'll HIF within hours.
This cool offer from NASA has returned once again!
You can once again sign up to have your name sent to Mars on the next robotic rover. According to their FAQs, our names will fly on a future NASA mission to Mars in the mid-2020's.
Some Hiffers sent our names on the 2017 InSight rover and/or the Mars 2020 rover. According to my Galactic Law Degree, that means we already have squatters rights on Mars. I call dibs on that hill over there!
While this is cool and all, I hope to be making posts for free trips to Mars before all is said and done.
