Free JCPenney Kids Zone Event

Free JCPenney Kids Zone Event on April 13

Mark your calendars! On Saturday, April 13, stop by your local JCPenney between 11am-noon for the next free Kids Zone event. These free events are held by JCPenney on the second Saturday of each month. Just like my laundry cycle! No registration is needed – you just need to show up on time and you should be good to go.

Your child will design and make a free owl dream catcher to build & take home. This craft includes a foam owl, feathers, stickers, string, and plastic needle. Kids will also get a free ID badge, lanyard, and collector's pin, and a Master Medallion once they complete 6 crafts.

All necessary materials will be provided and you don't need to signup ahead of time. As a thank you for coming, parents also receive a 10% off coupon valid for that day only. The coupon can be used either in store or online.

The following month's craft will be held on Saturday, May 11, where kids will make a special trinket box & card for Mother's Day. This craft will include a foam owl, feathers, foam stickers, string, and plastic needle.

Free LEGO Club Magazine

Free LEGO® Life Magazine Subscription

This free LEGO® Life magazine offer was first posted twelve years ago and is once again accepting new readers to sign up today! Also I'm well into midlife and still love LEGOS.

Quick, name one toy cooler than LEGOS! ERRRNT, time's up, it was a trick question since there isn't a cooler toy!

LEGOS not only are timeless, but they are amazingly awesome when it comes to fostering creativity. I'm in my 40s and I still find myself constructing skyscrapers and spaceships probably a little more often than I should. I figure a free LEGO® magazine subscription will only help fuel my addiction, but I'm okay with that.

LEGO® Life Magazine is super fun for kids 5-9 years old. It's packed with comics, activities, posters and much more. All issues are delivered right to your door 4 times a year, with no renewal or payment ever required.

You can signup here and you'll start receiving issues with the next mailing! You can also download previous issues from their archive, giving you access to hundreds of cool stories & LEGO builds.

Free mlb.tv streaming account

Free MLB.tv Subscription for T-Mobile Customers

IT'S BAAAAAACK! Oh man, I AM HYPED! Y'all may remember T-Mobile has offered free MLB.tv subscriptions since 2016. This $150 value freebie allows baseball fans to stream, watch, and listen to every out-of-market baseball game throughout the season, which is great when you're a Seattle Mariners fan living on the east coast.

Well, I'm thrilled to announce the offer has returned for 2024! If you or anyone you know loves baseball, be sure to share this freebie since Sprint & T-Mobile customers can sign up for a free mlb.tv subscription between March 26 and April 2.

Save and redeem in the T-Mobile Tuesdays app between March 26, 2024, at 5:00 a.m. ET and April 2, 2024, 4:59 a.m. ET to receive a free subscription to MLB.TV for the entire 2024 season. Limited-time offer, subject to change. Only for T-Mobile, Sprint and Metro by T-Mobile customers on qualifying plans who have T-Mobile Tuesdays.

You must redeem this offer between March 26 and April 2! Here's how:
  1. Open the T-Mobile Tuesday app or head to T-Mobile's MLB promo page on your mobile device so you download the app from there.
  2. Sign into your T-Mobile account, then click “Save”
  3. Select offer from “My Stuff” and tap the “Redeem” button
  4. Log in or register at MLB.tv with your T-Mobile phone number
  5. That's it! Your free subscription will run through March 2025. It lets you watch ever single out-of-market baseball game on your phone, tablet, computer, or TV. You can also listen via a radio feed to every single game and team broadcast.

I was pleasantly surprised to see both contract plans as well as customers on their no contract, month-to-month plan qualify for this free mlb.tv subscription.

Man, a free mlb.tv subscription is music to my ears. It's been well documented that I'm a glutton for punishment. There's no other explanation for why I'm still a hardcore Seattle Mariners fan after the past two decades. 2021 ended in a heartbreaker – we came THIS CLOSE to finally making the playoffs and finally breaking their streak of the longest active postseason drought in all pro American sports. Oh well, with this freebie, I'll be able to watch Seattle extend their misery another year. Just like my dating life!

OH BABY, THERE'S A GREAT REASON TO BE A MARINERS FAN NOW! The drought is over and glorious success is ahead of us 😀


Free Lowe's Kids Workshop Craft

Free Lowe’s DIY Kid’s Kit – Garden Cart Planter on April 20

Registration is now open online for a free DIY kid's workshop to be held on Saturday, April 20 from 10am-1pm. Here's the signup link.

Lowe's has brought back their popular free kid's projects with DIY kits available every 2nd weekend of each month! The suggested child's age ranges for the Lowe's DIY Kits are between 4-11. All supplies and instructions are included, making it a fun children's task to complete.

However, this year they're also offering something new – attend the Kids' Workshops regularly and earn badges towards a free tool bag! The nitty gritty fine print can be found here, but long story short once you've earned twelve badges, you'll be issued a promotional code redeemable online for a free kid's tool bag or product of similar value.

So what's the upcoming workshop going to build?

April Event: Playful Garden Cart Planter

Kick-off spring with your little builder as they create a garden cart planter. Kids can grow new skills and take home a fun garden project just in time to start some seeds!

These look so cool – and they actually work! 8 year old Goob would have loved this toy and 40 year old Goob would totally pick it up late at night after all the kids had fallen asleep.

Lowe's Kids Workshop History

For over a decade, the free Lowe's Build & Grow workshop clinics were a staple monthly freebie. Just like the free Home Depot Kids Workshop, you could take your children to Lowe's on certain weekends and come away with a cool, custom built freebie. They were in-store workshops though, where attendees could make awesome projects right in Lowe's with the provided tools, safety gear, and work space. Then 30 minutes later the kids would always get to take home the cool toy craft they just made along with a collectible commemorative pin. They even gave coupons and discounts to workshop participants!

They shut the program down in 2017, but eventually brought them back and are still going strong in 2024. I really hope you and your family are able to keep enjoying these freebies for many years to come!

2024 Lowe's Kid's Kit Schedule

I did a little digging and found out these are the upcoming workshop builds this year.

  • January: Toolbox
  • February: Chalkboard

Possible Free Gratsy Box

Possible Free Gratsy Sample Box

The Gratsy app is accepting new users for consideration to receive free sample boxes of curated products. All you have to do is download the free Gratsy app for Apple or Android and enter information about your demographics and interests.

If you scroll down on their site, you can see images of 12 previous Gratsy boxes. Each one seems to be themed with related freebies, which is a nice twist that I wished other companies followed. I must have gotten a million PinchMe boxes with a bunch of random freebies that didn't really go together like a single cat treat, a laundry dryer sheet, and some hardwood floor cleaner.

There's no guarantee you'll be offered a box, but it can't hurt to sign up and be in the running!


2021 Free Fishing Days

2024 Free Fishing Days

The free 2024 fishing days have been announced for all 50 states and DC! On these specific days, unique to each state, you are allowed to fish without a fishing license. Most of the 2024 dates seem to fall around early June, but there are plenty of May, July, and August dates on there as well.

Most freebie sites only list the dates, but I've put in the extra work and found all the corresponding links & announcements to back them up. Below are all 50 states free fishing dates along with links for proof! To learn more about your local free fishing opportunities, scroll down to your state, click through to the website, and read all about your state regulations.

Make sure to check your state's official website for extra details. Some states actually offer free fishing rods, tackle, and bait during their free fishing weekends!

On a related note, I learned about the existence of fishing licenses the hard way. I was grateful the game warden took pity on me when he saw I not only failed catching a single fish, but was also tangled in the fishing line when he pulled up.

Saved by my own ineptitude!
