Lime, one of the new rent-a-scooter companies popping up everywhere, is giving away 250,000 free helmets if you pledge to wear them. I don't ride that many scooters, but I do fall down all the time. Think Lime will be cool with me just wearing my helmet around the house?

You should get a confirmation email saying all 25,000 helmets have been given away. But that was the previous free helmet promo Lime ran in November 2018, this is a new offer that launched today with 10x the amount of freebies. It looks like they forgot to update their email.

Go here to request a free Lenox jig saw blade. I don't have a jig saw, but I do have a hand that can move back and forth really fast.

This offer lasts until 10/1/19, so you've got some time 🙂

While researching this, I landed on a page that said something along the lines of “there's no such thing as a free lunch, but how about a free blade?” Oh yeah? I accept your challenge. A dash of hot sauce, a little pepper, and I'll be able to eat that saw blade in no time. Plus my dentist mentioned business is slow, so it's win win for everybody!

[thanks to Hiffer Mike for sending this in!]

Let's face it – none of us are likely to make it to Mars. I know, I know, I hate to be the bearer of bad news. But, we can get our very own piece of Mars for free!

The Martian Garden is giving away a free sample of free Martian gardening stimulant to students, teachers, and space enthusiasts.

Wait, this is supposed to help stimulate a garden? Isn't Mars barren? 🤔

Marlboro isn't the only tobacco company giving away freebies! American Spirit is 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.

If you're having trouble, log into American Spirits, then click the link above and click the “REQUEST BUTT POUCH” link.

Last year NASA let us shoot our names off to Mars. It was the closest I'd ever come to being an astronaut. At the very least, it was a cool way to let our future alien overlords know which ones of us appreciated space. Maybe they'll spare us.

However, with the current state of affairs in today's world, I think this new freebie seems a little more on point. To heck with Mars, let's send our name into the sun!

You have until 4/27/18 to sign up and have your name fly aboard the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft. This probe will go closer to the Sun than any spacecraft before it, as it plunge's through the Sun's atmosphere and is embraced by the warm, cleansing heat of our nearest star.

Still confused? Let this video by William Shatner answer none of your questions and leave you even more baffled.

EDIT: Hiffers are saying this no longer shows up for them. However, they want people to come back in July and again in August to pick more trails they like, so perhaps the freebie will return then?

Marlboro is giving away free leather work gloves and all you have to do is tell them your favorite hiking trail. Sadly they didn't list my backyard footpath that leads to a nearby breakfast joint, so I went with a trail from my home state. Can you even get a breakfast sandwich and covfefe on any of these trails listed on Marlboro's site?

One of HIF's most popular pages is our free state maps section, where I keep a running list of every free highway and road map available. Well today I added a new site to the list – free National Park maps! This site is run by a map enthusiast who also works as a park ranger. He's compiled over 1,600 high maps and I cannot confirm nor deny that I spent hours just surfing his site today.

Grizzly tobacco is giving away a free sunglasses lanyard. I didn't have an account on their site and was pleasantly surprised it didn't ask for anything beyond the usual info freebies require (name, address, and email). I wonder how they skirted federal law and didn't collect part of our social security number to verify we're adults, but I'm not their lawyer. That's their problem to figure out!

Once logged in, click Menu, then Offers, then confirm your address and you'll finally see the image above.

Now I guess this means I have to go outside sometime.

Cheerios is giving away free wildflower seeds today. It might seem a little weird for a cereal company to be giving away flower seeds, but it's a little-known fact that a pinch of pollen is part of a healthy, balanced breakfast.

I wonder if this is a marketing ploy to convince people to plant Cheerios.

I was also able to find this $1/2 General Mills Big G Cereals coupon.
