Squatty Potty Shark Tank Deal

Squatty Potty Deal via Amazon

I've joked on HIF and Twitter that my family is addicted to Shark Tank. It's the perfect show to throw on in the background while wrapping presents or drinking on vacation. But I never in a million years imagined it would have me interested in a Squatty Potty deal!

I bring it up because that's where I first saw the Squatty Potty. It was a rare product where I was 100% wrong from the get-go. I thought it was a stupid idea, then all the sharks were interested. I thought they wouldn't have any sales, at which point they announced they'd already broken $1 million in sales. I finally predicted I'd never again hear of Squatty Potty, which was strike three!

Flash forward a year later and a close relative of mine had trouble using the bathroom. They'd tried every home remedy and half the pharmaceutical ones, all to no avail. Just as they were about to give up, their spouse got a Squatty Potty as a gag gift. I'll spare you the rest of the details, but let's just say I started hearing about the Squatty Potty all over again.

You could say I was skeptical, but then I read the mountains of glowing reviews. Even the scant scientific data backed it up: “There is indeed scientific evidence that squatting results is faster and more complete defecation.”

It feels weird to say that when I later visited their home, I was stupidly excited to use the bathroom. I wanted to see if the Squatty Potty could live up to the hype now here we are.

Look, I don't know how or why the Squatty Potty became “unicorn improved,” as promised in the banner image above. However, I can attest to it providing the best poop of your life. So much so that I bought one for myself just now since they're on sale.

Fingers crossed I'm not the only Hiffer who's become a Squatty lover, but if so, this is a great price for some comfort and relief!

Just pick up this free weed alert poster, head outside, and prepare to be … well, probably bored looking at weeds.


Free Biofreeze Pain Relief Gel

Free Biofreeze Pain Relief Gel

This free Biofreeze pain relief gel works wonders for whenever you're in pain, but can't find a walk-in freezer to sooth your aching muscles. I've actually used this stuff for years and it's way better than Icy Hot.

I signed up for this three times to test it out. My VA address was rejected, but NY and SC were good to go, so YMMV.

Thanks to my aforementioned migraines, I happened to discover Biofreeze when I started HIF and instantly fell in love. Imagine Icy Hot on steroids. I put so much on my shoulders that I swore it was going to fry the skin off and while I know that doesn't sound too appealing, anybody with muscle or back pain knows how much of a “good hurt” that burning sensation can be. And that's coming from a guy who cries whenever he gets a hangnail!


Free Moe's Burrito

Moe’s Southwest Grill Birthday Freebie

Ok, I've got some good news / bad news. Let's get the bad news out of the way first. Unfortunately the Moe's Southwest Grill birthday freebie has changed from a paper coupon to their app. This means I'm uncertain if the expiration date still moves forward, as explained below.

However the good news is we've been upgraded from a free drink to a free burrito!

As I mentioned above, Moe's birthday freebie was one of the first restaurants to wait for you to actually need your coupon before starting the expiration clock! Not many restaurants do this, as most will email you a coupon the week of your birthday with a hardcoded expiration date either a week or month later. But with Moe's, I received my email for a free burrito in February 2016, but I didn't open it and click the coupon until September 2016. Most restaurant coupons would have contained a static March 2016 expiration (1 month after the email was sent), but Moe's coupon had an October 2016 expiration (1 month after I actually read the email!)

It's a small perk, but one that I hope Moe's continues with their app! In fact, I'd go on board as saying all restaurants that offer free birthday food should hop on board too!

During checkout, click on the box to redeem “Your Birthday Fix” in the “UD BEAUTY JUNKIES” section, then select the Afterglow shade you want in the pop-up window.

Free CFL Lightbulbs Duke Energy

15 Free CFL Lightbulbs for Duke Energy Customers

I've updated this post from 2010 to include the correct link and new information! Also, please do not leave your address or account number in the comments below! You need to contact Duke Power directly to request your free lightbulbs.

Duke Energy is giving their customers 15 free CFL lightbulbs, which is nice for Duke Energy customers and irritating for everyone else like me. I tested my luck and called my power company asking where I could pick up free light bulbs. They laughed and made a counter proposal of “pay your bill by tonight or we're shutting off your power.” That's not the type of freebie I was looking for!

In order to claim your free bulbs, “eligible customers can order online or by telephone. For online ordering, go to your Online Services page and visit the “My Products and Services” section. To order by phone, please call 800.943.7585. Customers can check eligibility by entering their account number, nine-digit Social Security number (SSN) OR phone number and last four digits of their SSN.”

Duke Energy Free CFL Lightbulbs Eligibility

  • Duke Energy residential electricity service customers with an active account.
  • Customers who live in a state where this energy efficiency offer has been approved.
  • Customers who have not yet met or exceeded the free bulb (CFL or LED) program bulb limit of 15.

Duke Energy only operates in six states (FL, IN, KY, NC, OH, SC), but they don't list which states contain eligible customers. Thus you'll want to follow the instructions above to see if you qualify for this freebie.
