I have a confession to make. I’m not 100% incompetent when it comes to freebies. I know I’ve missed a bit over the past few weeks and I HATE to make excuses, but long story short I've got cancer and am in the middle of chemotherapy.
I debated announcing this for a while. One of the few ways I’m oldschool is how I don’t like broadcasting my problems to the world. The goofy, semi-moronic character named Goob you see on HIF is the same persona I carry on in my daily life. Just ask any of my ex-girlfriends.
But the fact of the matter is there are days where the chemo kicks my ass. I've never been so tired in my life and this is coming from a guy who used to nap at least twice a day in college. Knock on wood, this will all pass soon, but in the mean time I'm going to keep missing the occasional freebie.
I ultimately decided to publish this because I wanted to say thank you. I wouldn’t be in a relatively rocking position if it weren’t for y’all. I don’t know how many people know this, but HIF is my job. It went from a joke site to paying for an occasional six-pack to a full time, get up and be at my desk by 8am every day job. Okay, 10am. And I love it! I’m my own boss, I can work from anywhere, all successes (or failures!) are mine and I get to fly by the seat of my pants in so many areas. Trust me, I knew nothing of server maintenance or business tax law or negotiating ad rates 24 months ago.
And with this newfound success, I bought health insurance.
So many of my friends and family are still out of work three years running. They don’t have a steady income, let alone health coverage. And the only reason I do is because of each and every one of you.
Had so many of you not emailed, tweeted, liked, shared, stumbled, telephoned, carrier pigeoned, and however else you spread the word about HIF, then this site wouldn’t still exist. I can't even begin to fathom how harder that would have made my life now.
So thank you. Even if all you do is scan the page once of twice a week, that’s one or two more pageviews that ultimately led to me being able to take care of myself and put me in a position of optimism. Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my fraking heart, thank you.
We love you, too, ya big galoof. <3
Don’t know if you’re a believer but I am and that is enough for this or any other disease as I know prayer warriors. Does that mean you’ll healed the as human mean healing. NO, but it does mean that we can pray for healing, comfort, mercy, and peace. I too have an incurable disease and have for years. and with God’s help I’ve endured the pain and some is torturous. Hang tuff. As my friends in the lab say, kick butt and take names. May God lay his hands on you and may you ask him for your needs.
Goob, I will be praying for your full recovery and healing. Love HIF! Don’t worry about us, just rest and get well. We’ll be here when you’re feeling better. God bless!
Rooting for you, big time.
Sleep whenever you need to.
This is how the body repairs itself.
Bestest to you 🙂
I’m so happy you’re in remission. Who is someone who notifies thousands about little free gifts to get cancer? That’s just not right. Please read online articles and maybe that Natural Cures book. I really feel like there are ways to avoid cancer – with proper diet maybe. I don’t know. If you have time, please think about it.
OH and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep your loving fans updated! You are in our thoughts and prayers and we only wish you the best of health and would LOVE LOVE LOVE to know how you’re doing! 🙂
I just now read this post after seeing your “So about that Cancer…” post. I am happy to hear that you are in remission! God bless you, and may God help you through everything in your life. I feel terrible that I did not know/ see this sooner, but I have just recently (say, September-ish?) learned of HIF and that there are GOOD freebies out there, and thanks to HIF’s help I can keep up with them all! Anyway, I want to thank YOU for such awesome posts and witty comments on each of them 🙂 They make my fiance & I smile as we read through them and then quickly sign up for the freebies before they run out! You are SO strong for making it this far, don’t ever give up hope, like your other post said there are MILLIONS praying for you and rooting for you who support and love you, including myself. 🙂 Have a wonderful day, and hey- if there’s a day you don’t feel like getting up out of bed, then DON’T! 🙂 You deserve it, you’re a hard worker & a heck of a guy!
Best Wishes & GOD BLESS!!!
-Kathryn
When I read them, some months ago, I cried too. Humanity is not dead after all.
So glad to see that you’re in remission. I love your site and wish you nothing but good health and happiness. Wishing you well.
MY Dad’s been in remission for 26 years and counting! That’s freakin’ awesome! Your hilarious comments on everything make me smile every single week!
Thank you for the update. I was wondering about you and am so happy you’re in remission. Thank you for this awesome site. God bless you!
Please know that my thoughts and prayers for the best outcome are always with you…
I want to say THANK YOU for the info that you provide with humor. You are in my prayers.
I just saw this. Hope everything is going good & STAY STRONG. never give up hope. & keep us posted.we all love your sense of humor and couldn’t imangine a day without it.
Hey Goob! Hope you are feeling better each and every day!
You have an awesome sense of humor and I love reading your wry jokes even more than signing up for the free stuff you post! Hope your energy levels are staying strong and that you’re feeling alright. You’ve got a lot of people cheering for you, as you know.
No, Thank You Goob. You have made being a single Mom a little easier. I know it may not seem like much to you and all your fans, but every little bit of help I get to buy things for me and my son without any other help, is a blessing.
So, keep fighting, stay strong because I wouldn’t rather go to any other freebie sites then yours because you make it so easy. Being funny and goofy definitely helps.
I’ve been using this site for about a year or a little longer and I have my moments where I’m not on it as much as I’d like, but when I come back, you are always here. Keep up the good work and you have a lot of people pulling for you. Much love my friend.
Aw, Goob. You’ve brought laughs to my day so many times, just when I needed it most often times. I’ve even laughed like a fool, out loud. Keeping you in my prayers and thoughts is the least I can do. Let us know how you’re doing from time to time.
You are in my thoughts and prayers! Your sense of humor will help you through- don’t ever lose that!
I am so sorry to hear of your illness. I’m sending positive thoughts and prayers your way. Thank YOU for this website, which has kept me entertained due to sickness and unemployment. Please take care of yourself and surround yourself with supportive family and friends. Thank you again!
I’m praying for you Goob, you have brought me so many laughs and encouragement to try new stuff! I know you can do this faith and hope are your best friends. Have a blessed day!
I am so happy for you Goob! Not only does your site provide me with awesome free stuff but it also provides me entertainment. Thanks for all you do! Also Ignore April she’s a parasite of the lowest form.
be strong, fight hard, get better. positive thoughts to you.
Suck up the sympathy.
Just seen this today. Get well soon !! Stay strong and positive!
I’ll be keeping you in thought!
Best wishes to get well soon!
I am SO GLAD, yes GLAD! that I had a chance to read this before it got buried!! I’ve been with HIF for aLONG time and mention it to everybody that happens to be at the house when I check the mail and get something WONDERFUL!!
That being said, TAKE CARE OF YOU GOOB!!! We appreciate all of this wonderful “home”work that you do and look forward to much more!
I hope they kill that C outta you!!
I am so sorry to hear of your illness. I think that your positive attitude and great sense of humor will see you through this ordeal! Take care of yourself, and listen to your body when it says you need to rest! We will all keep checking back!
Wow, Im so sorry to hear of your health issue..my prayers are with you…and God will get you through this..we are all here for you Goob! Thank you for your humor and what you do for us..No one compares to the Goob! 🙂 Bless you friend..huggss
So sorry to hear about your health. Hang in there, be strong, and take care of yourself! We’re all rooting for ya!
And thank you for the coolest and best freebie site on the internet!
I am praying for you! Take care.
I love your spirit! You keep me laughing…may God continue to watch over you and bless you…
Hey Goob,
In battle with C myself, just a different kind. Not doing the same approach as you but fighting hard nonetheless. Humor is so important and your posts have many time brought just the laughter I needed at a specific moment. Find things to be thankful for each day and laughter as often as you can!
Thanks for the freebies you find. So glad you made it a full time job and can be at home.
The lord never gives us anything we can’t handle. God Bless you!
i wish the best 4 you and i love how u arent gonna let this beat u! so u kick cancer’s but!
Goob, I almost choked on my coffee when I read this. I think all of us have considered your wit and ceaseless jokes, jabs, and smile-inducing comments to be indestructible…but what a tall order!
From all of us, we wish you the best.
Sending healing love and prayers to you…….
I’d like to beat the crap out of cancer!!! Remember, cancer doesn’t have you, you have cancer……….so kick its ass.
You are in my prayers tonight and always. With God’s grace, you will conquer this and be stronger than ever.
Thank you for this website, it is wonderful!
Stay positive! Your wonderful sense of humor will pull you through this. Good luck!
I will be praying for you, god bless.
So sorry to hear this–LOVE YOUR SITE!!!—Praying for you and yours
Goob, ain’t no hill for a steppa’. Since you obviously don’t dwell on it, you will be fine! I have diabetes and a whole host of other issues and I deal with it with a healthy bit of denial. I don’t mean that I just ignore it but I manage it and don’t sit and dwell on it. The doctors say that the people with the healthy attitudes are the ones that do best and I believe that! Keep us laughing; my dogs look at me like I have lost my mind when I bust out laughing while reading your comments! Take care.
Just wanted to wish you well.
Good luck with the chemo.
Im sure no one will blame your for missing a few freebies, your web site was the first one I every visited looking for freebies and im sure I wont stop coming just for a few missed freebies. Never had cancer myself but I have seen many family with it and still have family that is dealing with cancer or als. You keep getting all the rest you need. Thank you for shareing your story i realise it probably took alot to write and click that send button. Sending you smiles and laughter like you send us every day.. Hope you start feeling better soon…..
Goob,
You have been a ommom name in our household for quite some time now. Please know that our family is praying for you. You have a HUGE support group following you!!! Please keep us updated on how you are doing. Thanks for everything!!
Goob, I started reading your site over a year ago. I’m glad this is your job, cause it makes my day have a little more laughter, not to mention free stuff 🙂
Take care of yourself.. we’ll be here when you get back.
Goob,
Just want to wish you a speedy recovery.
It is clear by the amount of posts you are getting that you have touched everyone here in a very positive manner and I hope we can in some way return some positive energy to you as well.
Best wishes,
Dean
Wow – I am just checking in now.
Stay strong, we are all thinking of you.
Goob,
You are in my prayers. God bless and keep you.
Love, Erica
Goob,
You were there for me awhile ago when everything was awful for my family. We love reading the posts and signing up for the freebies and then racing to the mailbox to see what freebies came that day. Hey It’s Free was my distraction to all the problems and now it’s just fun. Thank you!
I wish I could help you as much as you’ve helped me. You are in my prayers. All the best wishes to you for a speedy recovery.
Goob, I will also be praying for you. You have made a difference in people’s lives with this website. If I am feeling down about life I come here and read the entries on here, not for the freebies (that is a huge bonus though) but for the way you write about them. The humor on this site is contagious and has chased away many a bad mood. So thank you so very much for sharing with us your sarcasm and jokes. They make the world a brighter place.
Love your website, I have been a fan for a while now. I pray God will give you a speedy recovery & I can’t imagine how you do both chemo & run this site. Thank you & God Bless!
Thank you for making my day a little brighter everytime I get a sample in the mail. May God be with you and may you have a speedy recovery!
I LOVE Hey its FREE! I don’t even check the other pages any more. Promise to continually visit your site updated or not. We all know someone friend or loveone who has been through this. Stay Strong!
I love HIF! It’s the only freebies that I follow. We are praying for you. We will all keep strong for you.
I am praying for your full and complete recovery!
Sandi
Thanks for the 411 on all the great freebies, Goob! Get well soon. 🙂
Wow- God speed!
I love hey it’s free and look at it every day. I am praying for you and your family.
Wishing you the best. You are in my prayers. Stay strong!!!
Praying for you. So glad you are staying positive and that I am able to help in a very small way. My daughter found your site and referred me and I in turn have referred tons of others and will continue to do so.
I will pray for u and keep up the good work when u can. I love the freebies. If not for this site I would not had as nice of a birthday as I did…
I’m praying for you I’m so sorry. I’ve always loved your website.
hang in there brotha,
too bad we all have cancer & are born with it….. sadly our body just decides when to activate it…. never, ever give up!
I have to say I had to re-read the fine blue print! I will be praying for you and wishing you well!!! I am sure you have an army of loving friends and family and your cyberspace family too, that care for your well-being and support you!!! It makes me want to tell even more people about HIF…I think I’ll do just that!
take care of YOU!
Goob,
I know what you’re going throught and I will keep you in my thoughts. Best of wishes for a speedy recovery and Good Luck with the Fight!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery! I also wanted to let you know I included your site in an article I wrote about cheap family living for Babble.com…link is here. I hope you get even MORE readers!http://www.babble.com/mom/money-savings/family-budgets-tips-couponing/
Take care!
You are in my thoughts and prayers! Here’s to you and your process to recovery! :o)
I’m so glad you can laugh and joke with so much going on in your life. I’m a firm believer that will help you win the fight. Hope you don’t mind I have already included you in my prayers and will continue if that’s okay. You make us laugh (once til a little bit of pee came out). We love you and get better fast.
Goob, this news certainly took all of us by surprise. All this time you were making us laugh and we didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes. In the scheme of things, we can live without freebies. It’s not that important. Best recovery wishes to you.
So sorry to hear about your cancer and tough treatment. You have tons of people praying/cheering/rooting for your speedy recovery. I understand how you feel about not sharing personal stuff, but to most of us you’re like family. A “goofy, semi-moronic” part of the family, but at least I hear from you every day. 🙂
I hope everything goes well for you. Thank you for all the information you provide. I really enjoy your website! I will be praying for you that God will keep you strong and heal you!
God Bless You and I hope you have a speedy recovery!
Wish u the best. I tell everyone that will listen about HIF..My husband say its like Christmas 6 days a week when we open the mailbox, because you never know what is going to be in there. Hope you have a speedy recovery and i will wait for any and all freebies you sen my way.
Hey, Goob. I’m really sorry to hear this happened to you! You’re such a wonderful person and you don’t deserve this. Just stay strong and try to fight this, alright? I don’t know what would happen if I couldn’t see another funny, witty post from you. I’ll keep in my heart and I send you all my love.
Goob, thank you so much for all you do for us! Knowing that coming to your site helps you makes me want to visit as often as possible. I will keep you in my prayers praying for your complete and expedient healing. When you get the chance look up soursop/graviola tea. It is touted as effective in killing cancer in the body naturally! Stay strong! So many of us love and appreciate you! Don’t ever let your humor go away!!
Sending you healthy and strong wishes.
Very sorry to hear about what you are going through. You will be in my prayers!
All the Best to Goob!! Take good Care!
Thanks for always sharing!
I hope this is a good day for you!
Goob, We will say an extra prayer for you next time we are in synagogue. Be well. Yom tov.
Goob- sending lots of good wishes your way. Be strong like bull as you fight your way thru this. You can do it!!! Stay positive
and thank you so much for all you do. Can we as all your fans call ourselves “Goobers”? I am definitely a Goober!!!
God bless you!!! You are in my prayers. BTW I love this site 🙂
I’m a little slow, so just sae ur message on having cancer. I’m sorry to hear it and send ur love and light. Get better. We’re all behind you.
I love your site, Goob! Take all the time you need to concentrate on you and get well. We will be here! God Bless!!!
Thanks so much for sharing this. I understand it must have been a difficult decision to make. My Grandmother is getting ready to start chemo again tomorrow after several years of remission. (She has Chronic Leukemia) It’s so hard on her and the family as well. I live several states away and I live every day in deep remorse of not being there with her. I travel back and forth as often as I can. Sometimes it’s nice knowing there’s people out there who understand what you or your family are going through. Many blessings will come your way!
I must admit, I do love your site!! I check it daily…well, ok, several times a day! You do a wonderful job!!
WOW!!!! Thanks for sharing and I’ll bet in sharing you’ve
made alot of other people feel better about their situations too.
You’re amazing for alot of reasons so hang in there and keep us posted about what we KNOW will be good news later on!!! In the meantime, feel free to nap away!!!!!!!!
I usually click in to your page everyday ’cause you’re so good at what you do & have such a great sense of humor.
I had no idea that you were a solo act & that HIF was your “Baby” from the start. What a great and successful idea! Lucky for us you thought of it. I’ve tried other sites and yours beats them all!!!!
We’re all pulling for you and with your positive and optimistic nature you’ll do great!!!!
Best of luck,
Donna (another HIF and Goob fan)
Lots of prayers and positive thoughts for an extremely speedy recovery…
Just one more prayer to go with all the rest…I pray you have the strength, courage and peace it takes to get through this. I will be happy to add your name in the LDS Temple for extra prayers in your behalf if you would like me to. Gotta’ love extra prayers, right? Just let me know.
I thoroughly enjoy your website and have recommended it to many friends and family. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job. You are loved an appreciated.
sending well wishes your way for a speedy recovery!
Goob, I hope you are fairing well with your chemo. You can kick cancers butt!
We have faith in you 🙂
I love your website, and we all understand if you miss a few freebies here and there, I mean, we wouldn’t get as many if it weren’t for you anyway!
Goob!!
Im sorry man that this happened, but just by your comments and posts on HIF i believe that you will battle back and beat this disease!! I’ll keep looking on the net and see if anybody is giving away FREE CHEMO Samples, your website is part of my daily life i have to check at least twice a day!! Don’t give up, stay strong and laugh!
Look for one thing every day that brings you joy, smile even when you don’t feel like it (I have found my mood improves by raising the corners of my mouth…strange but true 🙂 ), find someone else who has a need and make their day (and that’s not always about things) and trust God. In the end no matter what happens you’ll have lived a life of worth and that’s more than many can say. Just bringing us all the freebies each day brings me joy. Thank you and God bless you.
I will be praying for you. Take it one day at a time!!!! and easy does it
Wishing you the best. We have been through cancer in my family as well. Take care of yourself and we will keep checking your site.
wishing you the best and fastest speedy recovery. I appericate you for what you do- your site is the best EVER!!!!! I tell my friends about it cause not only are we getting freebies but you have a great sense of humor.
I hope you kick the cancers A$$…My family will be praying for you.
Love the humor you put into your findings. Thanks for keeping everything upbeat.
No worries about missing a freebie every now and then.
Also, I pretty much never log into the HIF website, I do everything from your email newsletter…do you still get your $0.00000001 when I open that email? If not, I can start adding HIF to my list of daily websites to check. It is just soo easy to wait for the email to come in, and it is always there if I am traveling to check out later.
Best wishes and Godspeed! It’s cool what you’ve done here, but you’re way more important than what you do.
THE GOOD LORD WILL BLESS YOU WITH MIRACLES CUZ YOU MAKE SOO MANY SOO HAPPY!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME OUT OF YOUR LIFE TO BE THERE FOR US. I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE PROBABLY ON THIS……….WE WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOUR HEALTH. LORD, HEAL THIS MAN OF HIS SICKNESS AND RESTORE HIM. I PRAY THIS TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST, AMEN.
Praying for you!!!
Thanks for all you do….your comments even for products I have zero interest in always manage to make me smile. You are a true talent and a great wit, and I really appreciate you. I know you will be back to yourself very soon…..and all of this will be a distant memory. Every best wish…
Goob!!!! <3 I'll be praying for ya buddy!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE all you do! I've shared your site with everyone I know. Heck, I even share it with the check out folks when I'm using an amazing coupon and they want to know where I got it! I know you can beat this….we all need you here!! Take care my friend. You have a lot of love here backing you up!!
I’ll be praying for you too!

Thoughts and prayers to you for wellness.
I will pray for you!!! 🙂
Hi Goob!
I am sorry to hear that you are not well. I hope with each day that you get better and stronger. I will keep you in my prayers.
I love going to your site everyday. It is always fun to read your blogs about the Freebies. I have gotten so much stuff because of you! I so appreciate!
Take care!
Goob — Like everyone else I wish you the best on your recovery and want you to know that I have so much enjoyed your site – it always brings a smile to my face during the workday! I will add you to my prayers and hope that you will be cancer free soon. Keep positive and remember that we all care deeply for you and know that you will feel better very soon!
Keep fighting the good fight! KICK Cancer’s BUTT!!
Like so many of the other comments listed, I wish you a quick & speedy recovery. You don’t realize how much of a difference you can make in just one persons (that you don’t even knows) life until you share what you are going thru with us. Thank you for all that you do. Hope you are feeling better very soon.
Hang in there get well…….we all love your site and all the free stuff we get……….
Get better Goob! You can beat this!
Don’t you worry about all of us…pour you energy into fighting this disease! Remember…attitude is half the battle!! We’re all behind you…draw strength from the knowledge that you have hundreds of friends cheering you on!! Keeping positive thoughts for you…
Thoughts and prayers for you for peace and healing. Your site brings a smile to my face, and sometimes a freebie to my mailbox.
The best advice I got and never listened to…during cancer/chemo was sit back and rest. Drinks tons of water. You & HIF are the best..I’m rooting for you.
Keeping a good thought for you. My Aunt is 20+ years cancer free after surgical, chemo and radiation treatments. Be strong, have faith and know good thoughts are coming your way.
Praying for you! Your wit can always make me smile and I hope all of the nice comments from the 1000 or so people on here make you smile!
I hope you get well soon. You were the first freebie site I found and have been enjoying all the freebies I get in the mail. Wishing you all the best with your recovery. My freebie to you is to be cancer free.
My thoughts and prayers are with you Goob. Please get well soon. Is there anything we can do for you?
Hello,
Wishing you the best of luck. I had 2 family members go thruough the same thing and came out survivors so you will too!
Thank you for all you do. Sorry to hear the news, but I will also be praying for you.
Hang in there Goob. Love your site. I will pray for you.
Oh Goob, I wish you the best in this hard time. You’ve really truly affected many peoples lives and Im just here to say that I wish you a speedy recovery and I’ll be praying for you!
Hey: Goob, my heart goes out to you. I’m out on sick leave since June and I manage to go on this site at least 4 times a week vs. my email. A speedy recovery. May the angels watch over you. Wishing you good health.
Goodness! I wish you a speedy recovery… you will kick the cancer’s a$$.
Love the freebies you find, love love love your funny/witty freebie descriptions, and love that you are brave enough to share your news with us. Thanks Goob. Lot’s of prayers for strength coming your way! All the best to you.
Thank you for the great freebies and your incredible optimism. I’m sending positive thoughts your way!
Sending healing thoughts your way! XOOO
God Bless and get well soon. Thank you for all the awesome freebies. My prayers are with you.
Everything will be ok luv. Im sure you’ll see it through. With a personality like yours. Nobody can help but to send their love to you, and we should be thanking you for these freebies. I discovered this site this paty year my freshman year of college, and it has gotten me through some days and nights, and even saved me money. So Thank You and I wish you well <3
With your sense of humor I know you can get through this even stronger than ever! I’m looking forward to checking the site everyday for your next post: “FREE of cancer!” We’re all with you, buddy
Hope you beat this terrible thing you have. 🙁
~We love you, Goob! <3
Goob, sorry to hear about your health. on a positive for you~my hubby battled leukemia 17/18yrs ago. chemo,radiation,transplant~he stayed positive and won the battle. so…keep your chin up and know you have a lot of prayer warriors going to battle for you.
prayers are coming your way.. also thank you for all of the time you have contributed making your website the only freebie website that i find myself going to!
Kick its ass Goob!
Thank you for all the cool stuff you have helped me get. I wish you best of everything, remember that we are all praying for you and have you in our blessings. I was shocked to hear of your condition, but it’s just a small obstacle in this thing we call LIFE. Don’t worry, you’ll come back stronger with more strong-will and life experience. With it all, you can overcome anything!!!! Go, Goob!
Hurry up and get better because the other free sites suck! 😉
Remember that “laughter is the best medicine”.
That said, if someone offers you some freebie chemo … you might want to just say NO.
Take care!
So sorry you are sick. Will be praying for you.Just keep the faith.
Thank YOU for the laughs and now tears. Stay strong, keep your sense of humor, and you will get through this. Sending lots of good vibes and prayers your way!
Longtime fan of your website. I will be praying for a speedy recovery for you.
I hope you get better. God bless.
<3 no words. (((hugs)))
My thoughts are with you.
.
You are in our prayers
.
I was wondering where you were, aww i feel so bad, ):
You are a bright spot in my day!
I always look forward to visiting heyitsfree.net every day.
Thank for your hard work and caring ways.
Hang in there Goob!
Hey how did you get that name anyway?
i just wanted to thank YOU for the free little presents in my mailbox — for me, my kitty, my sister’s amazon dachschund, my boyfriend. thank you, thank you.
Prayers for healing!
sending healing thoughts your way
God Bless – not only do I have my sister with her radiation therapy, but I can also offer prayers for the health of one of my “favorite people” websites. With God, all things are possible and if I can storm heaven with prayers for her, know that you are also included.
My sister and I were having a cup of coffee and she asked me if I read this yet. Before we knew it we were visibly sad and wanted to let you know we are praying for you… You have somehow become part of our lives and we truly pray for quick healing and peace through it all.
Sending many prayers and positive thoughts your way.
Goob, since I found this site, I click on it twice a day–one of the first things I check in the morning with my breakfast, and then click at the end of the day as well. So, if all that adds up to 10 cents towards your health care, I’m happy to do it. I work in a health care field for over 30 years, I can tell you that amazing developments have come over those years. My sister is personally fighting Primary Peritoneal Cancer and in 5 months into the fight and doing fantastic! YOU WILL NOT ONLY SURVIVE, YOU WILL THRIVE. Hang in there.
They say that having a support network helps speed recovery. I’d say that judging by the number of supportive comments posted here, you’ll be feeling better in no time. Chin up, Goob, we’re all thinking of you!
Sorry to hear about the cancer. I am in the same boat, but without health coverage. I’m glad you don’t have to worry about losing a job and this site helps you earn a living. I have enjoyed being a subscriber the past 2 years or so. Best wishes to you.
Get well soon Goob.
Best of luck & prayers your way. I miss your posts & freebies. Hope you will be back to your normal self quickly. In the meantime, do you have a site that you would recommend to find the current great freebies & deals, until you’re back to posting again?
Sending prayers and *hugs* I just finished my 6th chemo—double mastectomy next week and then 6 weeks of radiation–stay strong :-}
Good luck to you!! So sorry to hear about this, but stay optimistic!! And thank YOU for all those freebies!!! I truly do enjoy checking out your site and reading your jokes 🙂
We <3 you goob!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you’re feeling better soon!
Just checkin’ in here first, to give you a giant dose of everything good I can muster up in my oh so inventive mind. I hope can can feel it. I am smiling so much as I write this, that my face hurts. Of course, deeply saddened about the cancer – I am love to read these comments & hear how much people think about you. Yesterday, I wrote a stupid knock, knock joke (kind of). Then, I wrote down your real name to write a limerick with, for later. I don’t even know if you’ll see it, but probably, knowing you. You are one dude that rock’s! I love ya man.
here’s hoping you will be all better soon. wishing you all the best with many more years to be in charge of HIF!
Wow, sorry to hear about that ! I always have a ball when I check out your freebies. Don’t go nuts trying to keep up, that could make you a little testy. I always love getting a free package from companies I find on this site. Even if it’s a sack of junk !
Hope your balls kick cancer’s ass ! ! !
Goob, you will be in my prayers. Stay strong and get well soon. 🙂
Hi. I am new to your site. I am very sorry to hear about your health problems. I am glad to now you have health insurance so that you can get treatment. Sometimes you need to broadcast things – that is how you will find strenght, love and prayers thru all those that look at yhour site. Now you are not just a website for freebies your are a friend. I will pray for you and look forward to hearing about your being well again.
I wanted to drop a note to say thanks for all you do. I was introduced to a product about a month ago and I and my husband have seen amazing results in a very short amount of time. A 15 minute report can be found here http://primetime2005.com/ There is an update report and a link for ordering here http://www.mylifevantage.com/dwhite There is a great business opportunity if you would like to pass the information on to any of your family that you mentioned being out of work for a while now. It is not a pyramid, it is direct marketing. If you would like more information, just let me know. May you and yours have a blessed day.
You are in my prayers! I hope you are 100% better as soon as possible.
Stay strong!
Keep your sense of humor and positive thoughts flowing. ((((Hugs))))
Praying for you!
Take care and stay strong!
Hope you get to feeling better soon! You have a lot of people that are rooting for you!
Get well bro
Hey man I’m going to pray for you, God is my savior and I know that he cares about you a whole lot, best wishes to you! 🙂
Stay Strong, you are in my prayers. Thank you for this site-I’ve received quite a few freebies. You rock!!
Oof..sorry to hear:( Stay strong and positive! I love your site and will check in even more frequently to help out with the 0.0001 cents!
You’re awesomazing Goob.

Hey man, just get better! Your site has done so much for me, the least I can do is wish you well!
What do you say to that? I do hope all will be well with you. I do check your site every couple of days to get a giggle from you silly behavior. You seem as though you are fun and easy going. tell you a secret…and you can’t tell. I click on your links and not the other sites. I know that you guys get a little bit of moolah when we click off your site..hhaa You seem to post stuff that people would want, not stuff that makes us feel like we have to get it because it is such a good deal. I do wish you the best and know that you can beat it with your attitude. The only thing you need to do is put on a smile and a hat lol sorry if that is akward?!
All the best wishes for ya, the C can be beaten..!
I’m so sorry to hear about your illness. Cancer is a b*tch to fight. You are in my thoughts and prayers!
Love and prayers are sent your way my brutha!!!! Thanks for all you do, all you say, and all the smiles and laughter that you bring each day. Awww…I rhymed! 🙂 I hope you are getting a “FREE” sticker each time you visit the doctor for being such a good patient 🙂 ((((((HUGS))))))

My prayers of healing and strength are going out to you. I too am a cancer survivor and know that chemo can be brutal. Fight with all your might and you will beat the heck out of it. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, we are like family who doesn’t see one another but we know that we are out there and we love and care for each other. We’ll be here for you!
Goob! You’re in my thoughts and Prayers, Thanks for sharing I had no idea.
Hugs!!!
Goob,
Thanks for all the freebies and good links and how to’s you have given me/us.
I wish you all the best / recovery and continued optimism.
I’ll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Be strong, and know that there are alot of people you have touched not only with this site, but with the humor you bring to it, and they will be fighting for you in thought and prayer. Be strong!
From one survivor to another (yes, you are a survivor) I wish you well. Don’t overdo it on anything. Take all your meds. And, say it as many times as you need to – chemo sucks.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, I know how hard chemo and radiation are, it knocks you completely off your feet, Thank God for the medicines they can give you know when the chemo makes you sick, I have been in remission a little over a year, just keep fighting!!!
Praying for a speedy recovery for you Goob. God Bless you!
Your site has made me the freebie queen in my family. Thanks to you and I know you will be better. Good thoughts for you always.
Hey Goob!! So sorry to hear about your illness. It appears that you have so many people praying for you and sending positive and healing thoughts that I know all of this positive energy will help you to heal. Your great sense of humor and attitude towards life will also contribute to you beating cancer. Only love and positive thoughts!!!!
I hope you have a good recovery Goob. I love your site. When I promote to people, I tell them I’ve gotten everything from condoms and lube to cookies and granola bars. Keep fighting. Be strong. I love freebies.
Wishing you the best. Great attitude! Thanks for a great site!

Dear Goob,
You and your site have brought me so much happiness. On days when I thought nothing could cheer me up, I’ve found myself laughing hysterically over your jokes. The new samples in my mailbox every day or two go a long way towards lifting my spirits as well. I’ve never faced anything as serious as what you’re going through but living with depression, as I do, can make everyday life feel hard sometimes. Thank you for brightening my days. My love and thoughts are with you.
-A Loyal Hiffer
Thank you for creating this site and for sharing your personal struggle with us! Best of luck to you and stay and live strong!
goodluck mate! thank you always for the awesome things 🙂
Many positive thoughts and karma coming your way. you and your site turned me on to great free samples and other sites, if that counts you will be fine and 100% back to normal very soon. I have passed on your site to many people and the free samples, take a break, enjoy your down time we will all be here when you feel like coming back.
Prayers being sent to you Goob, We appreciate all you do for finding us freebies and we can wait until yo get better to get us more. I tell everyone about your site, love the freebies and humor. Get better soon
I came to this site for the freebies. The witty humor was a bonus, so I passed along your site to the girls I work with. Now that you have come clean, I can now help by passing along your site to all the girls I know. Consider it a big hug from from the Hoosiers.
Thanks for all you do = the laughs, the freebies, and more. Wishing you speedy recovery=you are in my prayers.
Thank you for everything you do. I hope that you are able to recover soon.
No, thank you. Your site has been with me while I was doing some savvy budgeting as well as the times when I was simply down on my luck. The number of times I have benefitted from you being here I am not able to recount. How many people are kind enough to just alert people of free things all while being funny?
I am shocked and saddened to hear the news of your sickness. You should know that my thoughts are with you and my greatest wish is for you to get well soon. So we understand right now. I look forward to the day you write us with news of your recovery.
knock, knock… Who’s there? cancer. Nice try, cancer. But, if you’re here to take Goob somewhere… he would never ride with a stranger. He chose to ride in a hydroplane, in sh#t creek (I couldn’t decide if he would choose to go the traditional Up route, or try a Down route – sounds negative, but down – not always bad!). With CHEMO-sabi driving, and friends w/super human, turd avoiding oaring skills (so even if you skip into the creek for a time or two, you’ll be ok). You have other friends & followers you’ve never even met, that are expressing their love & praying for your quick recovery.
You better get your free toilet paper, & diaper wipes samples together. It’s gonna be a stinky cleanup party (better get some of those perfume samples, too.
p.s. You were the FIRST site I ever trusted. You are the FIRST site I ever visit, even before my emails. You are the ONLY site I recommend to friends. You are the ONLY site I completely trust.
I’m praying for you & your family & friends.
Goob, you rock…if attitude has anything to do with recovery, you will be just fine (and I’ll send up some prayers, too). I just found your site a few months ago and can’t believe the freebies that have come my way since then. Not to mention that it always makes me laugh, which is a precious commodity these days, too.
But this particular piece of writing is flat-out amazing, in the way it captures how our world has changed, both as a result of the recession and the global community known as the Internet. That more than 850 people would feel compelled to share words of encouragement to someone they will probably never meet or talk with is pretty cool, and gives me hope for the future.
My family’s long-term unemployment (24 of the last 31 months) just ended this week. Hang in there, all you who are still looking. And stay strong, Goob. We’re all behind you.
Praying for you Goob, My mom just went through that… you will make it out just fine! God Bless you. And thanks for all the freebies! I myself had been out of work for a couple of years. Sometimes that free food sample or free soap really helped me feel like I was doing something for my family. Thank you. Hang in there!
Sending prayers and hugs your way. Stay strong, and please keep us posted.
hang in there!!!! praying for you =)
Goob, I’ve been stopping 3+ times a day just see what’s new anyway and that’s a habit. HIF was my first and will always be my favorite freebie site, I ain’t quitting you man. I look forward to more of your special kind of wackiness and insight in the quest for free stuff! Hangin’ w/you, `(•.°)~
Thank you for all of your efforts! I will click on as many ads as many times a day as i can!
Goob, thank you! You’ve created a funny and rewarding environment that keeps me glued to your site. I wish you all the best. This too shall pass. God bless you, Goob!
PS HIF was mentioned in this month’s All You magazine as a safe freebie site. Congrats on your success!!!!!!!!! You’ve worked very hard to achieve it!!
Been following you for a few years now. Your posts always make me smile. It’s very inspirational to hear about the success of this site. I very much appreciate the freebie links! Gotten some cool stuff thanks to your posts. I’ve recommended you to others as well and will continue to do so. Wishing you the best — I’ll be sending some prayers up for you.
Big hugs and prayers to you!
You’re the man Goob! Wish you a speedy recovery and you’ll be in my prayers

I believe that being optimistic and having a positive attitude goes a long way in helping the healing process. You are a very positive and funny guy! While I’m sure it’s hard to stay positive all the time, I’m sure you will do it. Good luck!
Thank You for this site.

You’re in my thoughts..thank you for all you do!
I have gotten so much free crap off this website I just want to say thank and I hope you get better. And it’s not praying to any superstitious god that will help you. It is modern science. I hope it helps you.
Goob, You have given so much to us. I hope we can do the same in return by our thoughts and prayers. Take it one day at a time. Thank you for all you do.
I am in the cancer field. I can’t say that MY prayers will do you any good. But I hope that you are getting good care and good treatment. Fight the fight
Goob, best wishes and and I will keep you in my thoughts. Hang in there and keep your chin up. Also, Thank You for bringing this page to life. I love it!

Oh man Goob, please take care. I visit for the freebies but mostly because you make me laugh… thank you for that, and thank you for sharing. Praying for you!
You/HIF were my very first “freebie” site and you are still the first one I check every morning. You just get over this round of chemo, and you’ll be back in the saddle before you know it. Sleep your ass off, we’ll still be here when you wake up! xxoo
I am praying for a speedy recovery for you. Please know that your website fans care for you and appreciate all that you do. Take good care of yourself and don’t feel guilty about taking time off to rest, you need it to heal your body. Live, love & laugh!

thank you, so much for your time and effort. i will be praying for you! <3 xo
Goob, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
And most of all ( Im sure I can speak for everyone here ) don’t worry about us, we are not going anywhere and will gladly wait for you to get better.
That is the most important thing right now. You make sure you get lots of rest, try not to worry and make sure you eat heathy.
Please take care of yourself and God Bless You.
My thoughts are with you Goob, take care of yourself, if that means losing out on a teensy sample of shampoo or cereal that’s fine with me.
I hope you’ll be feeling better soon! *hugs*
wow-kid, that’s some sad news– but with all the prayers and well wishes- I believe you’ll be just fine — keep smilin’ and stay positive!! **hugs**!!! -linda
Take care of yourself.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I’ve fought cancer once already and its back for round two, but I know if you’re anything like me, you’re a tough cookie ans this is just a tumor in the road! Take it easy, get your rest… your HIF’ers are rooting for you and will celebrate your victory over this soon!
Sending prayers and well wishes your way…
Prayers your way. Keep the faith!
OMG Please take some time off and heal, you know we all love and support you.

I hope you get well soon! You’re an awesome guy who’s saved all of us frugal people tons of money. And you also make us laugh. All in all, you’re pretty amazing, and I hope things go well.
Take care of yourself, and get better. You’re doing a great job. Prayers for you and your family.
Sending tons of prayers and hugs your well…Your awesome…Good Luck Goob
Thank you for sharing with us. I went thru 48 weeks of chemo giving myself weekly shots in the stomache and during that time, your site often brought a much needed smile or laugh. Let your family members or readers help you get thru the trying times! Good luck with everything!
Hey Goob,
I am sending positive thoughts about your junk to you over the web. Best wishes to you–and all your loved ones who are going through this ordeal with you!
SLACKER…….

HOLY CRAP GOOB!!!
You’re closing in on 8OO COMMENTS!
WOW!!!!
See how much we love you?!
LOL!
We love you Goob!!! Don’t worry about taking some time off my friend 🙂 Have I mentioned WE ALL LOVE YOU!?!?!? Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
You made me laugh, but now I cry. Get well soon.
A bend in the road is not the end of the road… unless you fail to make the turn.
We are looking forward to your swift recovery. God Bless.

Get well very soon and we all are looking forward to your full recovery! Full speed ahead!
God bless you!
You are in my prayers…remember prayers do work…and miracles to happen! I wish the best for you.
I wish you the best of luck!!
Goob, sorry to hear this, but stay strong and don’t worry if you don’t feel up to doing this every day! Your site is absolutely the BEST, easiest to navigate and has the added (wonderful) bonus of your personality, which with one quip can lift my spirits. Your HIF devotees will be there unseen and we do really care about you.
You know we are all praying for you,Goob. You brighten our lifves every day, so it’s only right that we should keep you in our thoughts. You can beat this.
You’re gonna make me cry! I wish you all the best, and every bit of luck you can possibly find. One of my family recently passed away from cancer related complications, and I pray I never have to cry over you, because if anything happened to you it might just break my heart.
Please have a wonderful life, with many many more adventures to go
I wish you well and you’ll be in my prayers.
Speedy Recovery! You are wonderful! I love your site.
Good luck to you! I will say a prayer for your recovery. One of the favorite parts of my day is to check out this site. Love your comments and the freebies. I tell everyone about this site. When I come home from work, never know what is in the mail, but its like getting a little present everyday. Stay strong.
Thank you, Goob, for all your hard work. Keeping you in thoughts and prayers!
I’m keeping you in my thoughts, dude! Here’s wishing you a speedy recovery!

I will say a prayer for quick recovery and good health!! Thanks for all you do – I got myself a coupon for free bottle of shampoo from here 🙂
Interesting how tragedy can put a very human spin on a not-so-human medium such as the internet. We are quick to take for granted all of your efforts and hard work, and hopefully through this outpouring of support, you will see just how many of us genuinely appreciate what you do and we care for your health! Cancer is a real bitch, and please take care of yourself and know that we are all praying for you!
Hang tough, Goob! Your good health is much more important they us getting a few freebies. You’re a great guy with a wicked sense of humor and a great web site. You’re in my thoughts and prayers.
Wow, Goob. I wish you good health and a solid, 100% cancer free recovery. Lots of love. KR
I will be praying for you and the doctors and nurses who provide care for you. May God hold you up until you are strong enough to stand on your own
I feel for you mate! I’m a Cancer survivor as well. I had a brain tumor when I was 3yo.
Best of luck to you in your treatment. You’re a valuable asset to freebie netizens everywhere.
I am so sorry you are going through this. I have known and still do know so many who have to go through the same. TAKE CARE OF YOU! I adore your site and love playn around on it, and share as well! With out you we dont have HIF, so take care of you!!!! Your humor is what brings me here.
Goob, thank YOU. You give me a little laugh every day with your comments!
Goob- Enjoy your comments as well as the awesome free stuff. Sending positive thoughts and energy your way.
Goob,
Lots of us also clicked on the blog you wrote (in blue above) where you said you had cancer. It took us to a blog you wrote, and we left comments there.We’re all pulling for you
Thoughts and prayers go out to you! I found this web site when my husband was diagnosed with Leukemia and we had no income coming in, so I looked for savings everwhere I could. The humor got me thru a lot of bad days so I say thank you for that. Good luck and keep your humor, it will help you in so many ways, I know it did my husband and me!
I’ll keep you in my prayers(:<3

Goob, you are amazing and we appreciate you. Take care of yourself first, we will be here!
You are in my prayers and thoughts.. Just remember God is good.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Bless your heart, Goob! Always have a wry smile while reading your jokes. Prayers are going for you!
You always make me laugh with your sense of humor. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
I’ll keep you in my prayers as well! Keep on fighting!
May the Lord bless and heal your body! Thank you for your devotion of bringing awesome freebies to the world =) Your jokes/puns are the best also!
Another day to remind you prayers are on the way and I believe they are heard!
First off thank you for what you do, I have received shampoo which helps when you are a poor college student. When there were not as many posts from you I just figured, well life gets crazy and this is the time of year for vacations. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated here, I’d like to know if things improve or not. As I can see from these comments, you have people from many places praying. Stay strong, you can get through this.
You are in my prayers for a quick recovery. Thanks for all you do
Goob,
You brighten my otherwise miserable life and make me laugh. If there is anything I can do to help, please feel free to ask. I will be thinking of you.
I noticed you were not your usual “posting” self over the past few weeks… and when you said you went in for a CT Scan I was thinking this might be the reason. I am really sorry to hear that this has hit you. Stay positive and optimistic – and hang in there with the chemo. I will keep you in my prayers for a quick recovery. Thank you for all you do for us Goob!!!!
I LOVE your site and love how you can still be humorous… I’m rooting for you, hope you’ll get better! Full support.. :/ don’t worry about this site, just get betterr!!!
I’m support the site everyday. I’m sorry to hear — I pray you’ll get through this. Your health is way more important than any freebie so make use of that health insurance and get better!
YOU ROCK GOOB!!! Your site is and has been my number 1 choice to browse on the daily. Gods speed for a quick recovery…and as we say on the island of Guam: “Si Yu’us Ma’asi”!!!
wishing you all the best Goob. Though I’ve never been through chemo myself and I’m really hoping I don’t have to… I’ve seen what it can do to a person. I wish for you strength and light in your darker hours.
Made HIF my homepage so now you’ll get views from me all the time. I’m so glad you have health insurance.
Obviously I’m only the 712th person to say this, but we’re all keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. We hope you pull through and kick cancer’s butt.
I’m sorry to hear of your illness. I will pray for healing and strength. I enjoy this site and the little freebies I get in the mail. It’s always a nice surprise. I have spread the word about your site and I get a little pleasure from knowing it’s helped you. I am a big fan of working from home and I hope this lasts forever for you.
Goob,
You’re in my prayers. I just figured freebies were few & far between lately (as they have actually been). Take care of yourself and get stronger for us, your HIFFERS! We’ll be here praying for you and waiting for any news. Please keep us updated. 🙂
Sincerely from an SC mom to an AWESOME SC Dude!!
Be strong. You do make a lot of difference in our lives. Best wishes for you.
Thanks for being upfront about your health concern. Praying for you. Do you have a faith belief, Goob?
Any special prayer concerns? Love your website, I’ve been a faithful reader for over a year now and wondered why you weren’t updating your site!
Thanks again, and know you have freinds who are praying for you.
I truly hope everything goes good with you. Today’s medical knowledge has helped 3 of my friends be cancer survivors. I know you’ll be one also. You’ve got a great attitude. Besides it’s me who should be thanking you for all the freebies you told me about. Hang in there!!
You have so many comments, I don’t know if you’ll get to read this- but as a fellow blogger, I found your message to be one of the best summations of what an innovative, determined, and creative person can accomplish. When I started my blog 8 months ago, I knew that it would be an uphill battle to earn even pocket change, but I was up for the challenge. I can relate to how rewarding it is to call your own shots and be responsible for your own successes and/or failures. Either way, it’s less stressful than working for “the man” Even though I’m just starting out and haven’t made much, I’m so much happier running my little blog. I do what I want, when I want, and I’m learning about things I wouldn’t have otherwise known. Not only that, I am doing what I truly love- hunting down great deals. It’s what I’ve always done, but now I get to share it with others. I will always be grateful for my visitors, because they are my livelihood. Your open letter should serve as an example to other bloggers to remain grateful too and continue posting quality content (even if they do come with silly jokes). 🙂 I know you’re going to be fine because they say laughter is the best medicine, and you seem like someone who can laugh in the face of anything!
We will pray for you….thank you for all you have done and will do!!
You know the greatest free gift was when God gave His son to die for us. The Bible says “…by His stripes we are healed” – Isaiah 53:5. Will be praying for you
So very sorry to hear of your health issues. You are in my prayers. I enjoy your HIF site and try to get on almost every day. We like all those free samples coming in the mail too – better than those darn bills…
I just have to make a second comment to note how your post Goob and the subsequent comments have renewed my faith in people again. I must admit that lately I had lost so much confidence in people. It just seems like things are more hateful and ugly than ever. However, after reading all the comments to you, my faith is boosted a bit. We might yell at one another over parking spaces, cut each other off while driving, maybe not treat each other as nicely as we should on a daily basis, but when push comes to shove, we do support each other and will try and pick each other up when we are down. So, besides the other positive things that you have accomplished with this site, showing the better side of human nature is another you can add to the list.
I DO THANK YOU FOR THE BEAUTIFUL SITE THAT YOU DO WITH SO MUCH LOVE, AND DO NOT WORRY GOD KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD AND YOU WILL SOON, TOM A HUG BRINDES, MMMMIIIAAAUUUU
TOM BRINDES,SP,BRAZIL
Thinking of you. Cancer has affected way too many people, hope like hell you beat it!!!

Hang in there Goob! Sending lots of healing thoughts your way.
It should be us thanking you. Im so sorry and stay strong. You made the right choice by telling us becuase i was getting a little angry at the lack of freebies recently and now i feel horrible for thinking that
Hello, I have never made a comment even if im a frequent user of your site. I want to thank you for all the posts over the last two years. Your help has crossed international boundries, I have been able to help people in need in Mexico with the freebies (i happen to live in a border town). Wishing you the best in your treatment and we will be waiting for you.
You’re in my prayers! Both my dads battled cancer. I know what the chemo can do! Keep your spirits up and stay strong. Win this battle. I came across your site one day and I was, also, a bit hesitant of “free”. Now, I make sure to visit it everyday. Thanks!!
Thanks for letting us know so we can be praying. We appreciate you and are thankful for any communication you’re able to muster. Take care of yourself and get well. God bless!!
We are sending lots of free prayers your way!!
Stay strong, my thoughts are with you, too! ?
Praying for you…..Hang in there and stay strong
The way I first found HIF is because about two years ago my boyfriend and I were having a huge struggle with money (as have many other people)…and I was getting overwhelmed with bills, rent, paying for gas and groceries, etc. So I started searching online, mainly for coupons for the grocery store, but I ended up coming across your site. I was a bit skeptical that I would actually receive any of the freebies, since I had tried requesting some on other sites and was disappointed when I never got any of those, but I could I could tell right away there was something different about your site.
The fact that you make a new post just about every day let me know the website was still actively being worked on, which meant someone was actively looking for free stuff that would actually be sent to us. Plus, the fact that people could comment and say which freebies were still available and which ones had technical difficulties, etc, made it easier to know if it was just my luck or if other people were having the same problem. I started requesting coupons and samples like a mad woman…until suddenly I had this stock pile going of travel size bath and beauty products, single serving boxes of cereal, and coupons for things like a free box of instant mashed potatoes, pasta and free cans of vegetables. When you add it all up, I was actually saving a lot of money of those everyday essentials, and it really helped my boyfriend and I get back on our feet instead of always feeling behind.
So thank you, Goob. I wish you the best and I hope you realize how much you’ve helped so many of us. Take care.
Wow! So sorry to hear that. I’ve enjoy your site so much and visit everyday. You are so funny. My thoughts and prayers are with you for a speedy recdovery. (((Hugs)))
I know you are going to get better! Stay strong 🙂
Best of luck!! You’ll be in my thoughts and prayers!!!
I’m praying for you Goob! Kick cancer’s ass!! and stay strong & take care of yourself. Chemo sucks, make sure you’re doing everything to feel a little better. You got this!!! And thanks so much, I honestly love your site & I totally commend you for doing all this!

I so did not expect to hear that! I know you’ll get better though. Too many people care for you not to!! Your site is not just freebies, it’s humor too. Hands down THE BEST freebie site I’ve seen. Prayers for you!!!
We love you Goob! Best wishes for your healing.
You are so courageous and your wonderful sense of humor will get you far in your healing!! We are all pulling for you!
Take care of yourself. Of course we miss all the freebies, but we miss you more. Prayers and good thoughts to you and your family!

Please know that you have thousands of people thinking of and praying for you. God bless.
Been there.
Done that.
Understand COMPLETELY. 1.5 years in remission.
Sleeping is the order of the day. Need any chemo advice etc. let me know. Ex: I used to take acidopholis tablets to help with the stomach “issues” that come with chemo. Helped quite a bit.
Will continue to visit your page as I have done – maybe one or two extra times to help out.
Hang in there – it’s beatable!
With this many people pulling for you, how can you lose?!!!
My thoughts are with you, Goob! My dad has been going through the same thing for about a year, now. He just officially tested cancer-free this month! Never lose hope, & keep up the fight! It is beatable!
Also, just wanted to say that I love your site, & I recommend it to everyone! Seriously, I just recommended it to a co-worker earlier this morning! 🙂
Take Care!! Lots of Love!! 🙂
praying for you! and will come back daily!
I will be praying for you! Hang in there and I am going to post your website on my FB page so hopefully you get even more page views. 🙂
omg.stay positive in the mindset.love your work on your website.
Do’t worry about us missng a few freebie. Your health is more important. Get well soon and keep on fighting. Read all these messages of hope and love on those bad days.
T.T, keep fighting!
Good health to you, and thanks for all of your work. I love your jokes!!
Take care of yourself first and foremost. We’ll still be here when you get better. Thanks for keeping us in the know.
Thank you! Thank you for continuing to fight! I am here, we are all here to help, we will continue to help as long as you want us too. And if ever you decide to change the format, we will continue to be here, i will continue to be here to support you. What you shared is not ever the easiest thing to do, and now you have me not only as a subscriber, but as a Friend! 🙂 My prayers are with you and please make sure you rest after each chemo set, it will help 🙂
My Thoughts and Prayers are with you Goob!! Thank you for all you do, I myself am an avid couponer and your site is a breath of fresh air! If you ever need help, let us know……..God Bless You!
Hope you recover soon! Keep fighting!!
God Speed Brother! As a Colorectal Cancer survivor I can attest to the chemo & radiation being no walk in the park. I’ve been free since 2008 and hope to stay that way. God Bless!
Sending well wishes your way for a speedy recovery!
WOW Goob. Thank you for sharing you life with us. All of the freebies and of your personal struggle. I am so happy to hear you have health insurance and I will also pray that you go into remission soon.
I talk about your website all the time to my friends and have ever since I first found it (two years ago??). I too would like to send you a card as you have helped make my mailbox something I look forward to going to every day. I actually feel a wee bit bummed when I don’t have a sample waiting for me. Please do give us an address where we can return the favor. With my best regards and positive thoughts, Samantha in Oregon.
love this site, good luck to you!!!!!
Goob, You’re the best!! Thank you for you for always sharing with us especially this news. You’re a friend to many and I hope you know it. I appreciate you and your work and it gives me something to look forward to each and everyday as I am facing multiple medical issues too. Stay strong and positive!
On behalf of all the good folks who get happy surprises in our mailboxes because of your gift of time and dedication, I would love to know if there is an address we could all send care packages or cards of support to help you stay strong as you face this challenge. As a 2 time survivor of cancer myself, I have always loved the idea of “Card Parties” because everyone WANTS to help and be supportive- but the patient is pretty busy just getting thru each day. SO when a rough day does get you down, the bag of mail is still sitting there just waiting to bring you surprises and smiles. We KNOW you like to get cool mail. Can we be part of your recovery by sending our support and gratitude to help make any harder days a little brighter?
Thank you for sharing with us. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Its people like you that keep people like us going everyday. Thoughts and prayers go out to you my friend 🙂
No, friend. Thank you! Your devotion to your fans means even more now than before. You are appreciated! I pray things work out for you and that this cancer business is a distant memory for you soon!
Get well soon my friend….. I posted your link on facebook. Stay positive!
Thank you for your efforts! The growth of this site is a great inspiration, let alone your current battle. I’m sending you uber healthy vibes! I love the site, and I need your humor to get me through many days. Stay strong!
Get well soon! Will keep checking the site regularly for your updates! God bless you.
Praying for you Goob. Hey its free is my favorite website. Thank you for providing us with loads of great freebies.
I just found you a few weeks ago…I enjoy your sense of humor and laughs…who cares about the samples – did I just say that? Anyway what I want to say is — STICK AROUND FOR MANY MANY YEARS TO COME!!! OKAY??? We ALL need YOU!
Praysers for you. A daily dose of Goob humor and the thrill of a freebie make me smile. Take care!
You have no reason to apologize. You are a light in our lives.
634 Comments, I think that says it all!!!
Get better soon Goob! Love your humor and website! All the best to you! Don’t work too hard!
Prayers from Bellevue, if you need ANYTHING!! Let me know. Your site is AWESOME and so what if we don’t have a few freebies, I am sure we will understand, Thank you for sharing, I know it must have been hard to let us all know what you are going through. Take care of yourself first that is the most important thing of all!!!
just wanted to wish u the best of luck goob. I am soo sorry to hear this. I recently lost my cousin 39 to esophagus cancer. died within 8 days of finding out. he left a 6 month pregnant wife. my heart pours out to u. I wish u the best. and have spread your site to many. I have enjoyed getting a little Pkg almost everyday because of u. thank you goob. we love you 🙂
Thank you for sharing a bit of your personal life with us! It’s a good thing when the world becomes a little more intimate with one another. Every name and screen name has a face and most are dealing with painful things on a daily basis. You are great example to all of us that we need to share each other’s burdens! Therefore I along with these last 630 well-wishers offer up a prayer of healing on your behalf! God is good all the time!
Take care of yourself first. Best wishes to you & hope you are on your way back to good health. It is a tough road, I know. Thanks for sharing this private side & I am sure you see now all the people that support you even though they only know a little bit about you. Thanks for doing a good job every day. I visit your site regularly (sometimes more, but I still miss stuff-haha) & will continue to still check. Take care.
It’s hard to believe you can still make all your goofy, funny comments while you are going thru a hard time. I will pray for you, and a healthy recovery from this. A close friend just finished chemo recently and is doing great now. I have enjoyed this site for a little over a year now, and will continue to visit. I look forward to reading it daily.
I appreciate you sharing your personal and unfortunate situation with us. Your site was the first site I ever commited to visiting almost everyday. I think it’s great that your site helps so many (consumers and retailers). Take really good care of yourself and continue your fabulous, positive outlook. Don’t worry about the site, your health is what really matters. Sending you the best!
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Thoughts & prayers will be with you. Keep up the good work on your good days but make sure to get enough rest.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I had cancer in 2006 and chemo sucks. Been there done that. I never had been so tired in my entire life and I have 2children (grown now). It just drains you worse than any flu I’ve ever had. On top of my treatments, they also gave me sterroids to help with the treatment and I gained at least 8 pounds a week and my treatments went on for 16 weeks. Rest when you can and when you want. Take care.
Thoughts and prayers are with you. I’ll know you’ll beat this as you have thousands and thousands of people praying for you.
I lost my Grandmother to cancer when I was in high school about seven years ago, and I still think about her all the time. I know you are much cared for, and I pray that you will make it through. Your website is not only great for the freebies, but your commentary also brings some humor each day. You’ll be in my thoughts.
Goob, I am so sorry to hear this. Please take care of yourself and know that we all love and appreciate you!!!!
No apologies needed, your health is what is most important. I’m so sorry your on that scary road. Just take it easy and know that you have thousands of strangers thinking of you and please just take care of #1 right now.
Sending prayers and hugs your way! I always love entrepreneur stories, and it sounds like yours plus your health insurance purchase was good timing. You’ve brought many smiles on many a day to me with your witty descriptions, aside from the freebies.
Goob, fight the fine fight and keep up your wonderful sense of humor. I pray that God’s Kingdom will soon rid this earth of all it’s woes.
Isaiah 33:24 “And no resident will say: “I am sick.”. . .”
Revelation 21:4 “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
Best wishes for a quick and full recovery.
Goob, you’re awesome. Keep that strength up, Brother. It’s a long, long road. We’re all praying for you.
You’re in my thoughts and prayers, Goob! We love ya!
Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this tough time. May you come out of this stronger and with the knowledge that you have touched so many of our lives.
Cancer is an incredibly tough battle, but your optimism and positive attitude will help for sure. I am over three years cancer free, with lots of bumps in the road along the way, but grateful for each and every day! Stay strong, Goob.
This was unexpected news to hear when I checked out HIF this morning. Hang in there. You’ve made a wonderful and entertaining website that I look forward to checking each morning. I am so glad to hear that you were able to get income and health insurance from something you love.
You are in my prayers.
Goob, you are brave to share that with us all. I have no idea what you’re going through, but my thoughts & prayers are with you and your loved ones.
Just wanted to send you my best wishes and wishing you a complete and speedy recovery.
Thank you for all of your hard work, your personality shines through and has put a smile on my face on numerous occasions.
Hope all of the positive thoughts being sent your way may be a beacon of light on the rough days you may encounter.
Stay strong Goob!
My father is going through cancer . Love seeing whats free every day thank you ! And stay tough .
Like so many others, I wish you well and pray for your health and recovery! Thanks for letting us know!!
Thank you for all you do for so many. I hope you are well soon.
Noticed that you weren’t around. But hope you do recover fully. Your personality is infectious and puts a smile on everyone’s face.
I just read your post. It took alot of courage to write about such a private matter. May God be with you during this time. I will be praying for you. Thank you for such a great website.
I am hoping and praying for a speedy recovery. And thank you for such a great website!
Thanks for all your hard work and I pray you have a full recovery.
Hey Goob,
I was so humbled to read your message. I thank you for the laughs and all the things that you do for us readers. I’m praying for you and that you get peace of mind. I can’t even imagine what this is like for you, Just trust in the Lord and he will see you through this.
Much love and prayers, Michele
You’re in my thoughts and prayers. Hang in there!
I hope you get well. I will be praying for you. Thank you for this site and all you do!
Thanks for all you do! Forget about the freebies, I’ll keep viewing this page at least twice a day every day.
Hope you get better soon.
Have you tried those 5 hour energy drinks? j/k! I’m so funny.
I hope you get well soon. Thank you for the work you put into this site.
Prayers be with you, my friend. I do hope you can give us all a positive update soon.
I’m a bit odd myself, and getting the mail each day is like a mystery box, I just can’t wait to see what I might have today! Your site has sure added some fun to my life…. even more great, fun mail showing up daily. It may be silly for a thirty-something to be so excited over the mail, but I am, and your efforts has made my daily delivery even better. Thank you much. Kick that cancers proverbial butt.
By now you have stopped reading these…but I wanted to ad you are in my thoughts, prayers and energy. I UNDERSTAND…and bless you but it does get better.
You will be healed of cancer very soon. The Law of Attraction states Like attracts Like, so think only positive healthy thoughts and you will have nothing but positivity and good health in your life, Gd bless u!
I love your website! It is my favorite internet site. The only site I check every day. You do an awesome job. Good luck to you. Humor is the best medicine and you have that in your back pocket. You will beat this!
So sorry to hear this news and hope you’re able to offload work when needed so you can focus on taking care of yourself. I recently attended a free cooking class that is being done nationwide this summer by The Cancer Project organization. You might to check the schedule to see if a class will be in your area:
http://www.cancerproject.org/resources/cooking_class.cfm
They also have a free download of the book here which I highly recommend getting:

Thank YOU ! We wish you a speedy recovery!
You may already know this, but you should visit http://www.cancer.org. It’s the American Cancer Society website and they offer a vast array of services and support-from assistance with medical bills and prescriptions, to transportation to treatment centers, and everything in between. I am including you in my prayers and encourage you to keep that great sense of humor going! Positive outlook plays a great role in healing, and you just may make someone else’s day by making them smile. God bless!
I will pray for your strength and hope that your condition improves. You still have this fan by your side rooting for you!!!
That took a lot of guts to post; of course, so do some of your jokes …JK haha
Best wishes for a complete recovery, there are so many pulling and praying for you, that there is no doubt that you will pull through and look back on this many, many years from now as a ‘blip’ in the road (ok, a big blip).
I wish you God’s blessing, good Scotch, good drugs, and hope you are back soon on full wattage keeping us entertained and well supplied w/ fun and bizarre freebies!
Keep us posted!
We’re all thinking of you! All my best for a full and quick recovery. (Just an FYI, I went to Target to get some free peanut butter a couple of days ago and they were ALL OUT. The sales guy told me he had just restocked the shelves a few days before. I like to think they ran out so quickly because everyone saw your post and ran out to grab some free Jif To-go! 😉 Best wishes!
Thx for deciding to share this with us. I will remember you and your family in my prayers. Best wishes for a very speedy recovery.
Goob, you’ve got good mojo sent your way. Kick cancer’s ass!
Best Wishes to a speedy recovery. I visit this site daily and there’s always something interesting, whether a freebie or a joke! Go kick some cancer azz!!
Sorry to hear the news, Goob … sending you best wishes for your recovery …
Godspeed you back on the road to health, Goob. <>
Checking your site has been such a pick-me-up for me on rough days because if nothing, you’re good for a laugh. I pray for you to return speedily to good health, and that you remain in good spirits.
You’ve always posted such humorous notes with freebies. I’ve been a loyal visitor to your site for over a year now. I really hope you get better soon and that you can rock this site once more like you used to.
Good luck & best wishes.
god bless and a quick recovery.
Goob, prayers and blessing to you! You have helped so many people…I hope this virtual hug helps you too (>^_^)> <(^_^<)
Goob, it’s US who should be thanking YOU! YOU have brought so much joy to so many. You are amazing. Do you live in NYC? If so, I will come over and take care of you and bring you vegan pea soup.
God Bless xo
HOly Cow! Get well real soon!
my family will be praying for you….
First off thanks for sharing something so personal with us. I am a five year survivor and I can tell you having a positive attitude and your good sense of humor that will help you through this tough time in your life. I will be praying for you. Also, thank you for this site as it is the little things in life (like freebies and your humor) that are the best things. Take care of you!!!
Goob, I couldnt believe it when I read this! Cancer really sucks- It has hit quite a few people in my family and my husband’s, so I know the terrible reality of it! Hang in there and be strong and positive! Oh, and just an “fyi”: I have turned so many people on to HIF (like all the employees at my local Rite Aid) that my daughter said I shld make a percentage, lol! 😀 Anyway, keep your chin up, and thanks a ton!!
Dear Goob, I love your site and visit at least once a day. Bless your heart, I will pray for you as well. I appreciate you and the time you take to post funny comments and freebies.
Much love <333
Praying for you! This site is amazing!
Wow. What an amazing story! Kick that cancer’s ass Goob!
Goob! Thank you for sharing all these awesome freebies!!! The first thing I check when I wake up in the morning is your website! NO JOKE! I have you on my tool bar for fast access!! I will be praying for you!!!! We love you!!!!!
Speedy recovery Goob – hand in there! We’re all rooting for you!!
Take care of yourself. I will be saying a prayer for you.
The freebie calls are great, but it is your humorous asides that make me a regular reader and my husband an active listener. . . really eyes open and everything. Thank you, and I’ll take what I can get as long as you get well and remember yourself first!
Goob, I come to your website everyday and it’s one of the best parts of my day. Without you I would not have had free Cheerios for breakfast, wouldn’t have a drawer full of free shampoo samples, I would not be going to Target tomorrow to get free peanut butter, and I wouldn’t have gotten a free t-shirt in the mail today. The best part about your website though isn’t your freebies (don’t get me wrong I love them) it’s your humor and wit I love reading all of your posts and I’d read them even if there weren’t freebies attached. Thank you for everything you do! I will be praying for you.
Hey Goob..Thanks for sharing, & may you know that your in my Prayers,..Your website totally Rocks!!! I’ve always enjoyed your humor & will continue to visit your website..Thanks Goob

Do please continue as you feel able – your sense of humor is every bit as much of a gift as the freebies!

I to have cancer…stage 4 (incurable) but chemo was able to return me to “normal” health and I am doing great on just an oral medication. It has been 2 years and so far the medication is keeping it under control. I live life to the fullest every day and consider my new outlook on life a blessing. Hang in there. There are so many wonderful treatments available. I will be praying for you as I consider that the strongest medicine of all. Thanks for a wonderful website.

Goob,
Please take care and know that lots of folks from all over are rooting for you. Your site is a bright spot in so many people’s lives. I know that my son who is disabled loves to go to the mail box and get a package. He may not always like what is in it–but it brightens his day to see something in the mail box (I agree with Joni) other than bills and more bills. Stay strong and know that your wit and creativeness are appreciated. Good vibes to you!

Wow – Dude – you’ve got people all over the country (world?) thinking their best thoughts for you and hoping that your nightmare is over soon. You really do mean a lot to us. Take all the time you need to get and keep yourself well. We’ll be here with open arms and open hearts when you need us. ALL MY BEST TO YOU! Shelli
Thought I’d give you some inspiration: In the mid-80s, my mom was diagnosed with bladder cancer. She got through that, and was diagnosed a few years later with breast cancer. No problem…radiation, chemo, didn’t even lose her hair. A few years later it was thyroid cancer (all of these are unrelated–they didn’t just spread from one area to another–totally different cancers). The bladder cancer came back, the bladder came out, no problem! Then the OTHER side of her thyroid came back as cancerous–another totally different type of cancer cells!! What are the odds? Then some funky type of lymphoma, mycosis fungoidis, which is usually only diagnosed after the subject has died from it…and they said she had only six months. That was 6 1/2 years ago. Mom will be 70 years old in September, and is STILL GOING STRONG!! Five different cancers, six go-arounds with it, and we just laugh at the word “cancer.”
Laugh, my friend…laugh at the cancer, keep on keeping on, and you’re going to be thinking about this in the future as a tiny speed bump in the road of life. God bless you!!
Unfortunately Goob- I have been there and done that. Something one of my surgeons said to me stuck with me thru all of my treatments…this may sound corny but the sun will shine again for you. I didn’t believe her at the time, but now know it to be so very true. I started my treatment 7 years ago, am still here and I am one big wuss to be sure. If I can do it, you can do it and rock it. My thoughts and prayers are with you and for goodness sake people, PLEASE don’t assure him you know how he feels, nobody does but him. And you don’t even want to know- please trust me on that. May all the good forces be with you, my friend.
Goob~ You have to get better..who will I take when I win one of the trips you offer from time to time? Along with everyone else Thanks for sharing and my prayers are with you. Just keep thinking about that trip when I win!!!
Thoughts are with you, I hope your positive attitude will take you far in your recovery. There are lots of us out there sending you healthy vibes and positive energy.
Goob I look forward to your wit and wish and pray for your speedy recovery……..take care and keep a positive attitude….it will go a long way in your treatment!!!!!
Goob – I can’t tell you how much I enjoy visiting this website every day to see what freebies are available! And it is so fun getting the mail and wondering what I might have received each day! Best of luck with the fight – think positive thoughts and get better soon!!
GEEZ, Goob! We had no idea! Our thoughts and best wishes are with you. Don’t even THINK about work right now — just get well! Your efforts make all your visitors’ days brighter — especially your sharp and witty comments — so we feel like we know you in some way and that makes us all care a great deal about you. So please do keep us posted on your progress. We want to hear what is going on with you, and hope our positive energy can bring you some measure of restoration and healing.

So sorry Goob will pray for you!! I knew something was up because you are always on top of your game!!!

Goob ,thank you for all the work you do to find these awesome freebies and deals for all of us…and if you have some off days …you have earned it …. healing prayers coming your way hun i commend you on doing such a awesome job despite what your going through..
I am sending you lots of positive thoughts on your fight to conquer the beast. I have never posted before, but can’t tell you how many times I have just looked at your site for a laugh. My favorite was the personal lubricant that you thought was glue. It still makes me laugh just to think about it (it was a long time ago). Stay positive Goob, and thanks for being there!
We’ll keep sharing and clicking — you get yourself well! Thanks for all you do!
We’re all with you in this! Stay positive, stay strong!
Goob,

Thoughts and prayers are with you in this fight. Know you are not alone.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you! Thanks for all you do to help us!
Get better Goob. You’re in our thoughts and prayers!
Thank you for the smiles along with the freebies, you have many people keeping good thoughts in their hearts and more than a prayer or two on their lips whispered for you. Stay strong and get healthier than ever.
Thank YOU, Goob – your site makes all of our lives a little better every time we get a cool freebie in the mail! I’m keeping you in my thoughts and sending get-well wishes your way. I hope things go okay and your chemo is quick and successful. Keep up the great work and please know you’re making the world a better place.
Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers, Goob…we all love you and your crazy funny wonderful freebie posts 🙂
As I write this there are 437 comments and this brings a tear of joy to my eye. The outcry of support is wonderful and that is my point for leaving this comment. I normally never leave comments unless someone is being an asshole and disses this site but I wanted to leave you an encouraging response. I happened to stumble upon this site in the past year looking for freebies to pass the time while I was unemployed (and to ease the stress of having no money). Ask my boyfriend how many times I had him print out coupons from this site before we left the house. He always says “Yeah…I know….Heyitsfree.net”.
Anyways, I truly hope everything goes well for you and you are in my thoughts. My mother is going through radiation right now and has Stage I uterine cancer. My father passed away from lung cancer found in stage IV in 98′. You are in a blessed situation for having found it so early so stay strong and keep positive. I love your sense of humor and almost every post makes me giggle. Please know that your are inspiring and make at least one persons day brighter.
Thank you Goob!
Keep the faith and rock on.
Sending you prayers and blessings for a quick recovery. Keep us posted.
Goob, I will pray for you! May the Blessed Lady whisper into Jesus’ ear to cure you, that will be my prayer for you. Take Care my friend & never give up! Keep the faith & Trust in God! His will is what we all follow.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thanks for sharing something so personal. I hope it helps to know how much you touch all our lives on a daily basis. I hope your sharp wit will help you see the best in everything you are going through. Take care!
Goob, Many prayers going up for strength to get through the treatments & to kick this cancers butt! Thank you for what you do – thoughts & prayers.
I hope all goes well with your chemotherapy and you have a full recovery! Your blog is the frst site I hit every day for great freebies and a few giggles. I thank you. My prayers are with you and we won’t give you a hard time if you miss a few pampers points in the mean time. 🙂

Love this site! You do what needs to be done for Goob, and speaking for me (and hopefully the rest of the Hiffers) we’ll be here no matter what. Keep on trucking 🙂
You can beat this thing, many people have and you can too…I don’t know if you are a praying person but get into the Word. It really helps to focus on Him and not what people and doctors tell you…Don’t misunderstand, do what the doctors tell you but stay in the positive and read up on what the Lord has in store for you…
Praying that God will give you the strength, peace, and wisdom while He heals your body.
Goob, you’re in my heart, thoughts and prayers…I visit your site everyday, and not to be cheesy, but you’ve changed my life…I feel like you’re a good friend….Stay strong and let all the good vibes and love be a part of your body and spirit with every breath you take…You have a good soul and will be here a long time! Hugs.
You do an awesome job with this site and it is so much to come every day, 2 or 3 times a day to see what goodies may be posted! We are keeping you in our prayers for a speedy and healthy recovery! Take care of yourself first and foremost!!! <3
I love your newsletter and I appreciate any that you can get out for us during your down time. I hope things will look up for you soon and in the meantime, you’re in my thoughts and prayers.
You always make me laugh on your comments so- thank you! And all the best to you!
Goob,
This is one of my favorite sites. I always have it open and check it daily. I’m always telling my friends about the freebies I find out about from here as well and invite them to start checking it out. I’m glad it’s able to provide some ad income for you and I wish you the best in the treatment. Thanks for being an entrepreneur and finding a useful way to serve society where you can make a buck as well. If more Americans had your attitude, our economy wouldn’t suck so much right now.
You’re awesome!
Give cancer a swift kick in the groin for me.
You know you have the best job in the world when you can pull such a strong, inspiring community of people to you without even trying! Goob, you’ve found the answer to world peace: freebies.
Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for letting your amazing personality shine through. But most of all, thank you for allowing us a glimpse into your battle. We will always be here to cheer you on and support you. Besides, you’ve created a lot of freebie monsters, you can’t get rid of us! 🙂 Love and determination are yours for as long as it takes and afterwards when the cancer is gone.
keep us updated please…..blessings and prayers to you.
So sorry to hear that. I hope you will get better, we all believe that you will. You will be in my prayers.

Good luck and keep your spirits up 🙂 I know you’ll make it through.
OMG, how sad to hear when you have brought joy to others lives. I love going to work to brag about what i received free just bc of your site. i even tell them how to get on it, but some are just lazy. My thoughts are with you and hope everything gets better for you.
Group (((HUG))) and prayers for a clear recovery. I love your site and have told others about it too. Keep positive thoughts, and know this HIF family won’t mind a few missed freebies. Your health is the most important issue at this time. 🙂
No, thank you!! You’ve done so much for all of us and I’m glad you chose to share this with us now!! As a 17 year cancer survivor (and yes, I survived chemotherapy too) my thoughts and prayers are with you. Please allow others to help you along the way and always keep your wonderful sense of humor! We love you!!

Awe goob 🙁 I hope u get better soon .. And thank you! Your the only freebie site I use.. I’ve even turned others on to u even though I didn’t want to cause they might hiff my freebie.. Without you I’d have to pay 🙁 .. Take ur time n get better then get me those freebies 🙂
I’m so sorry – and I know how important health insurance is when it comes to major illnesses. Our daughter had cancer – a rare bone cancer in children. And we saw people who didn’t have insurance – usually from Mexico. It’s sad – so I’m happy you have insurance. Praying for you – it’s the only way to get through problems. Let HIM handle it. 🙂
My prayers are with you! Thank you for all you do!
Thanks to you! Get well soon!
Although we’ve never met this brought tears to my eyes. You’ve been so good to all of us, and it breaks my heart to know you’re going through this. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication to the Hiffers. Lots of prayers are being sent your way….
Best wishes. Hope you are done with treatment and cancer-free soon.
hang in there and god bless you luv this site
I’ve told a million, okay, maybe ten or twenty friends about your website. Thank YOU for the time you spent to make this your profession, because it helps us family’s get a little extra something in the mailbox to get us by. Hang in there bud!
Sending prayers and angels your way for a speedy recovery! Hang in there!
Kick Cancers butt!
Take one day at a time and look on the bright side. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Even though you don’t know us, we are a cast of thousands pulling for you! Be strong. Be positive. We are sending you are good wishes for a full recovery!
Goob…My family and I will be praying for you..We know that you will be fine and right on track with your health. But in fact, WE HIF’s should be thank you for all you have shared and giving us….Trust me, with your site, I have kept my family smilng all the time when I come up with something new that we can get for free or with one of your comments….
Take care of yourself and we know that you will be fine..
PS: just make your team work harder 🙂
I did not know this turned into a full time job for you, but I’m happy it has turned out that way for you. Imagine me looking for freebies and you turning that into an income you can live on with benefits! I’m glad to be part of this and appreciate your hard work.
Use that determination to win this fight against the cancer. I know you can do it!
Because of you, I am able to make ends meet. I am in the same position as sooo many others, layed off. The freebies & the coupons really do help with the budget I support my family on. I pray for you & I know how rough you have it right now. Don’t worry bout the little things we can do without, your health & being is what matters to us. So, my friend, take care of you. Thank you for all you do. Take care
Oh Goob, look at all these comments! So many people love ya 🙂 Sending happy thoughts your way. It’s the least I can do to thank you for the tons of free shampoo I’ve gotten this year 😉 Hoping for a full recovery!
No, Goob, Thank you. I love this site and am happy that I found it! Feel better!
praying for you to get better
(((HUGS))) You make me laugh all the time and I wish you a great and healthy life! Get better soon and let nothing deter you from making sassy freebie posts!
Thank you.
You’re the greatest! And I am so sorry. My prayers are with you.
SO SORRY to hear that! 🙁 Please take care and get well soon!
Hope you get better soon. I check out your page a couple of times a day as part of my routine.
Goob, I feel as if you’re a personal friend of mine, even though we never met. Praying for a full and complete healing for you and peace of mind as well!
I hope your chemo works for you! Knowing what thats like and how hard it is i am sending good thoughts your way
Best of luck and warm wishes to you. I love your site and you are sooo funny.. Hang in there. There are alot of people thinking about you..Peace
I’m so very sorry you are going through this. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong, you can beat this! You have the support of each and every one of us. I, as well as everyone else I’m sure, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you do for us! I’ve been going to your site everyday since you started it. Thanks for everything!

Be strong, Fight For Life, my daughter in law did and she won. You can too.
Hope you get better fast! Good thoughts going your way.
Joining the legions in prayer & faith for complete healing, in Jesus’ name!
Thank you for a fun, helpful & funny site! Your wit is a gift. Your candor is humbling.
Sorry to hear what your going through, I went through cancer with my dad, the best advice he recieved from the dr was to keep positive and keep yourself surrounded by the ones you love, it pulled him through and I pray everything works out well for you.
Goob,
We are definitely praying for you! Even though we are anonymous free stuff fans, you are like a good friend to us 🙂 Your jokes and freebies have cheered us up a ton, Thank you.
Do you have a P.O Box where all of us goobers can send you a card?
Do you have help for the site, do you need a volunteer?
Is there anything we can do for you? You have done tons for us.
Fight hard, rest plenty, and keep your sense of humor sharp!
<3
It’s been so much fun getting your newsletter for the past year or so, I really look forward to it! So sorry to hear about your health issues, but, I’m sending you all my positive thoughts and energy and I just know you’ll be fine. Lots of love, Letty
May all the good you have put out in this world come back at you 7 times 7.
Be strong!
The thanks is to you, Goob, for maintaining this site for my daily enjoyment. I wish you all the best in your recovery.
We’re all rooting and praying for you, Goob!
will be thinking of you. don’t over do it! get your rest and focus on getting through this.
Thank YOU for this site, Goob. Ever since I found it, I’ve become pretty obsessed and tend to check it around twice a day… Glad to know it helps, hmm? 🙂 You never fail to amuse me with your jokes, and I hope you get better quickly.
Your fans are praying for you! Keep strong.
God bless you! I have an uncle going through chemo right now…it WILL get better. Prayers coming your way! 🙂
I am saying prayers for you Goob, I will everyday until you tell us that you are carcer free. That day will come!! Thank you for all you have done for all of us, I can not even count all of the Freebies that I have got because of you. STAY STRONG!!!!
God bless & speed your recovery. You have given all us so many good laughs, as well as good freebies. Thank you & may that joyful spirit carry you through this!
One day at a time. I appreciate your work and attitude. Live strong
Wishing you healthier days ahead !
Goob,
Ive never commented on your site before, although it has crossed my mind. I found your site through a news agency about a month ago and am OBSESSED. Seriously….I check it about 5 gazillion times a day and it’s so fun to get home and have goodies in the mail! Long story -short, I appreciate you and all that you do. I especially appreciate your ever so witty comments. You make me giggle. Please take care of yourself, thinking of and praying for you and yours. Stay strong and positive! And please continue to make yourself, (and us) giggle!
Thank you Goob for providing your wonderful wit and candor and not to mention the freebies! I love your site and thank you for providing it. Keep your chin up and your sprits high my friend! Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
My prayers are with you…. God has a plan.
thank you for the update-hope the many well wishes help carry you through the chemo ass-kicking…..you are a joy to “read”, and i look forward to many more years of your silliness< i meant, totally professional information. just wait til you go through menopause–whoops, wait, that's me. stay strong, guy.
god bless you your a hero for the website but also that your strong
Thank you so much, Goob, for the effort you put in to each day to bring all of us hiffers some freebies. I know I appreciate it so much, and even more now that I know that you are even still working while on chemo! I know you’ll be better soon, I guarantee it. There are literally hundreds of hiffers who love you and wish you well! Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, like the fact that I am actually exited every time I open the mailbox hoping for a freebie. Show cancer who’s boss! I believe in you. 🙂
I am prayin for ya goob. I check your site at least three times a day. Stay strong and you can make it through anything!!!!!!
Prayers for getting through chemo and for healing. I will understand if ‘chemo brain’ takes posession of your brain from time to time. I am a cancer survivor and I am pulling for you.
prayers go out to you, Goob. Love HIF even if my mail lady has developed a bad back what with all those samples she lugs around to me every day. Hang in there…you WILL get through this…I’m a cancer survivor and yes it’s a bitch, but that whole “this’ll make you stronger blah blah blah” thing is true.
Long live goob!!!
Goob, stay strong, stay positive and know that lots of us are keeping you in our prayers and thoughts!!!!
Be positive as we all know you are… your site was the first of its kind that I had stumbled upon and u make me laugh every day… I too enjoy all the freebies and remarks that u post… thank you for trusting the HIF family with something as deep and personal as what u just shared with us. What goes around comes around… you have all our thoughts and prayers flying back atcha… take care.
Prayers goin up for you. I think I speak for everyone on this site when I say thank you for sharing your story with us and we dont hold it against for missing the occasional freebies. I love your website. I come here about twice a week and have even gotten my husband on here as well. Your health comes before anything else, so take care of yourself bc if not for you we might not have this website! Thank you for what you do and God bless you!!!
You’re in my prayers, Goob. Take care and I wish you well. Love your sense of humor.
Goob you are a bright spot on my day… and don’t you worry we ALL will stick around through thick and thin… you just work on getting better soon! Thoughts and prayers
BE STRONG AND BELIEVE…….
So very sorry to hear this. I’ll be praying for you and know that you will soon be feeling stronger. I love your site and have gotten many freebies because of it. Thanks for all of those! Take good care.
My prayers are with you. Get to feeling better soon, and thanks for an amazing site!
Keep your chin up! I beat it 25 years ago and pray you will, too. You are in my prayers.
Did I ever tell you your my hero 🙂 🙂 🙂
I love your site and your courage to share the private side of your life. Your site was the first one I happened upon to begin my quest for freebies, then couponing, then ad matching. Through humor you encouraged and enticed me into a world that has allowed me to provide better for my kids since becoming disabled and off work. My thanks and my prayers are with you.
Your site makes my day so much better! Thanks for all you do everyday and my family’s prayers are with you!
I’m so sorry, wishing healthy days soon! Prayers go out to you. Thanks for all the freebies I’ve received because of you.
I wanted to vote for your site on Best of the Best Links to Free Stuff site to help move you up so that more traffic would come to your site, BUT, I can’t find you on the list of 100 sites.
http://soprano.com/freestuff.asp?linkno=613&ref=/vote/vote.asp?linkno=613&w=1008&h=548&from=/vote.asp?linkno=613
Are you listed under a different name?
Thinking of you Goob! Thanks for all you do!
Wow, look at all these comments Goob – I hope they keep your spirits high. I love this site and I hope that today is a “good” day for you. Prayers and hugs your way. =)
Keep up that positive attitude and calling upon Christ. Thank you for always being on top of things here; your work has been a blessing to many of us. You, your family, and friends will remain in my prayers!
After reading through the posts, I must say I concur! You and your site have been a life saver. The freebies have taken a burden off the grocery bill when it comes to necessities like toothpaste, deodorant, soap, food samples, dog food, and the list goes on . . . My thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this hard time and know you are appreciated. With that, I say THANK YOU for all you have done and hope this is a bad time that is part of your past very soon!
Dear Goob~
I would first like to start with an apology to you. I read your ‘thank you’ and laughed, thinking it was one of your jokes, I obviously read further & felt like a complete @ss. I KNOW cancer is NOT a joke, my mother is dealing with it currently & I, like so many others have lost beloved family & friends to it as well. So, I am SORRY to you & others affected that I laughed at that comment.
Now that I’ve got that out of the way, I want to say THANKS to YOU for all the freebies & totally COOL items you’ve notified us of in the past. I’ll be including you in my prayers. Please keep us posted
oopsy..those question marks in my post just above are supposed to be musical notes…sorry
My thoughts and prayers are with you. You have made going to my mail box fun. Thank you for this web page. Stay strong and believe. HUGS!!!!!
?Goob’s a survivor, he’s not gone give up, he’s gonna make it, he’s gone work harder?….sung to the tune of ‘Survivor by Destiny’s Child’. 🙂
But seriously, thanks for sharing your story with all of us and from one cancer survivor to another…God Bless, much love and don’t overdo it. We can wait…take care of YOU!
Love, Dee
🙁 Not good news Goob!!I visit this site at least a million times a day…YOU GOT ME FREEBIE ADDICTED!! Take care <3
Thank you for all you do…sending prayers for you…
Wow Goob, this is the last thing I expected to read when I came on this site today. Thank you for sharing, I know it probably wasn’t easy. Take care of yourself, we’ll be okay with the occasional missed freebie! You are in my prayers, but you’re young and strong so you’ll kick cancer’s butt!!

My thoughts & prayers are with you Goob.

You are in my prayers Goob! This site is amazing and that is thanks to you! Keep up the good work and stay strong…this too will pass. 😀
Hang in there Goob! May you have a full and speedy recovery!
Things will be ok. ((hugs))
We’ll pray for you at our house, found out 2 days ago my mom-in-law has breast cancer(invasive), and watched both my gramma’s go through it; 1 with breast cancer, and 1 with leukemia. Thank you for hangin in and the awesome site. Used to go to another till I found you. lots of love- always.
Hang in there – I went thru cancer last year – but lucky for me no chemo – just radiation – and now I’m good – and in time so will you. Stick with it – it only gets better. God Speed!!!
Thank you for running this awesome site! Your awesome personality and “horrible jokes” are even better than the freebies! Best of luck to you!

I will pray for your recovery and complete healing. I believe that you will overcome in the name of Jesus!
Peace.

I love your site and your coupon database! I have recently shared your site with several coworkers!! I’m sending prayers your way and am hopeful for a fast recovery for you! Good luck & God bless!!

Goob, Trust God for your recovery. I will be praying for you. I am a 17-year survivor. PTL

You’re in my thoughts and prayers, Goob. I’m glad you have insurance and I’m glad I came across your site. Chemo’s a pain but I know you’ll get through it.
Goob,
Sending prayers and positive thoughts your way for a full recovery. Stay strong! And thanks right back attcha for all the smiles and giggles 🙂
Hang in there, Goob. I was diagnosed with cancer in March this year, too. Chemo is a pain in the ass and I know how much it sucks to be awake, but not really functional. It gets better though. You’re awesome and I’ll keep you in my prayers. Stay positive! You aren’t alone!
Thanks for sharing & I hope things are going better soon!!
I’m praying that God gives you strength. I hope you beat this. God bless.
Lots of prayers sent your way…will be thinking of you every day.
Sending good thoughts and energy your way my friend. We’re pulling for you.

Hang in there, Goob. Love your hard work looking for freebies, and your dry sense of humor. Prayin’ for ya. Thanks for sharing your secret.

Sorry to hear that you’re ill and undergoing this mean treatment, but, God will prevail and you’ll continue to HIF us for years to come! I intend to pass you on down to my kids & grandkids!
You’ve done an awesome job for us all and we appreciate you! Hang in there! It will get better!
I want to say something that everyone else who visits your site mirrors, I’m sure. THANK YOU! Thank you for all the freebies, and more chuckles than that. I have written some responses and submitted a couple of freebies to you and I am glad to have had the opportunity to be a part of “your business”. I am happy that it enabled you to get the health insurance that I know, right now, means more to you than anything. Take care of yourself and I hope you get well and continue making everyone smile. 🙂
Thank YOU, Goob — keep fighting the good fight!
KICK THAT CANCER’S ASS!!!!
Hang tough dude and wishing you a speedy recovery. And thanks for having a great site.
I have been to many freebies websites, but the thing that keeps me coming back to heyitsfree everyday is your funny personality and quirky comments about each free item! The other sites are impersonal and boring, but heyitsfree never fails to brighten up my day. So thank you, Goob and get well soon!
I love your site and have told so many other about it. You are in my prayers and thoughts as you take care of you..I’m sure it was hard for you to share your health with the world, I know that all of your fans will be praying for you. Take care.
Godd bless you and make you feel better soon. I love your site and I will always share it with friends. Just take care of you and don’t lose your hope. Everything will be good. I will keep you in my prayers.
God bless you we love you,you do a great sevice to help us save money you are a special man.
Hang in there, Goob! I enjoy your snarky comments, so don’t ever change that. I just setn up a quick prayer for you, and a THANK YOU for the freebies and the fun I get from your site!
Goob, I always get a smile from your emails daily, you are funny and quite clever!
The freebies are great and I so appreciate them! I live on SS, so sometime those freebies of shampoo etc. come in handy when waiting when waiting on my next check to come in.!!
But most important right now, is that you take care of you!! We will be here.
You will be in my prayers, and thoughts daily.
Big ((((((hugs))))))) from a fan!!!
I will be praying for ya! Thank you!
Stay strong! Praying for you.
Hang in there, Goob! Many positive thoughts are being sent up for you.
NO, THANK YOU!!!!! MUCH PRAYERS GOING YOUR WAY!!!!
Hey Goob,
I’m a student and work a full time job and your site has helped me snag some fun and useful things since I’ve been visiting. I enjoy reading your posts and have shared your site with others. I’m glad you are able to get the treatment you need during this difficult time.
I’ll be thinking of you, please keep us updated!
Love, hugs & prayers for you Goob – stay strong.
I too am fighting that battle. Tiredness is the hardest for me and sitting at the computer helps me pass the day. Thanks for the freebies. My postman likes it because living in a small town it generates more mail volume for them.
Hey Goob, thank you so much for sharing your story with us, I will keep you in my prayers and I hope you have a complete and fast recovery.
I love your site and I want to say thank you for all the fun freebies and humor you share with us everday!
Goob… so sorry to hear. Prayers and hugs and ditto all the cool stuff above that all these very smart people say about you. You rock. Get well soon!!
Thank YOU for all you do!! Prayers & love with you during this time and wishing you a speedy recovery!
Goob, you are in my thoughts and prayers. As a cancer survivor, I can tell you to hang tough, accept help when you need to, and take the best care of yourself as you can. Surround yourself with positive people and ones who make you laugh. Sending healing vibes your way……
Wow, I am sorry! Thanks for all you do for us Goob! You take care of yourself and keep up the good fight! You are in my prayers!!
You will be in my payers. Get well soon. Thank you for the awesome site.
Goob !!! You are in my thoughts and prayers!!
<3
Goob,
How brave of you to put this out there for all of us to know. You do so much to put a smile on our faces, hope all of these positive responses from fellow Hiffers puts a smile on your face. Keep fighting and doing well.
Thank you for all the freebies you have found. I’ve enjoyed them!!! I will keep you in my prayers!!!!!!
You are in my prayers! Your humor makes my days and I always check your site first. Thank YOU!
I read your posts every day and usually forward them to friends. My prayers are with you for quick healing!
Prayers sent your way – and with your name on them also. 😉
Did she (lori) say talk about your junk? We are all ears!! 😉
Dear Goob, I pray that you will come out stronger and happier out of this. From the bottom of my heart, I wish you the best and strength to overcome the cancer and a really FAST recovery!. We need your goofy comments on freebies! One of your thousands of fans out there,
dolphintweety 🙂
I’m not even sure how long I’ve been a part of your site — just seems like you’ve always been there. I check it out every day mainly to see what funny comments you have made. The freebies are a nice bonus. You will be in my thoughts as you go through this battle. Take care and keep on fighting!
Get better soon Hon…:)
No, Goob, the thank you should be from us. I love your site and have referred the site to many of my friends. Get well soon!
I check out you site almost everyday. Reading your funny comments makes me feel like I know you. Hang in there and do what you need to do to get better. Best wishes.
Just think of how big your support circle is now! No one thinks you a whiner. Take care of your health. We’ll be here waiting for you and the next freebie!
It takes a lot of courage for people who are private to come and out share something like this. Good luck during this not so great stretch and know that you have tons of people cheering you on.
Goob, it goes without saying that my thoughts and prayers are with you. There of course is no need to apolgize. Your health is number one and takes complete priority over any freebie. I love your website, which I actually stumbled upon about a year, or so ago. I am so glad it has been able to provide for you as it has. That is definitely something to be proud of. (Doing the I am not worthy bow.) Take care of yourself and get better soon. We will all still be hanging around here. There isn’t a freebie you could give us to keep us away.
I’m glad things seem to be looking up for you. You’re site is the best freebie site I’ve been to. Even though I look around every now and then, I still come back here. You’re the funniest and the most honest and yours is the easiest to use. Before I lost my job and had to go on disability, with an incredible wage decrease, I did a lot of volunteer work and did whatever I could in giving back to those in need. It’s nice to know that I am doing this again, in a backwards…roundabout way, but it makes me feel good that you’re gaining something out of this. Stay in good health and keep this things going for many years. I’m glad you shared this with us. Prayers to you!!!
Goob you are one of the very good guys. I don’t care at all about getting freebies but you always make me smile and you seem to have such a positive outlook on life. So I stop by your site and always feel a little better for having a virtual visit with your and your pals.
You are smart and tough and you have an army of good people rooting for you. I wish you a return to good health, and better days ahead.
((((((((((GOOB)))))))))))))
Thinking of you. ?
Get well soon Goob and kick this cancer in the *ss !
you will be in my prayers tonight, i really hope you get better and i think you will because a lot people will be praying for you. God Bless you.
Goob, Thanks for sharing with your fans! Just know that everyone is lifting you up in prayers for a full & speedy recovery. Keep the faith…a positive attitude makes a HUGE difference. And please keep us posted on your progress.
KICK IT’S ASS! Too bad I’m not done with med school yet to help, but you can count on millions of clicks… so literally something like my own 2 cents, ha.
Maybe you can add a weekly post inviting Hiffers to comment w/freebies we’ve found… we love you 🙂
Best wishes for an easy & speedy recovery. Thoughts & prayers are with you. Your sense of humor will get you through this!! 🙂
Get well soon. I love that you are in good spirits. I think that it will help you through this. You are in my thoughts. Thank you for providing freebies with entertainment. Take care, Goob.
Thanks for sharing your story! We wish you the best (and speediest) recovery. My mom, who was always healthy and strong, battled Breast Cancer 5 years ago. I watched her on days where it was hard for her to make it from the couch to the restroom. But, on a lighter note, she’s now back to her normal, happy, energetic self and has been since about a month after radiation was over!! GET WELL SOON!!
Please don’t thank us. We are the fortunate ones. You are here and assist us in getting freebees we would never have a chance finding.
I hope you are the one kicking ass instead of cancer. Get well soon. We’ll be here when you return. We promise.
I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!
Oh Goob. I am glad you decided to share your news with all of us. Look at the loving responses you have already! We can be your cheerleaders.( Go Goob!) I will definetly keep you in my prayers. Since you have decided to share this with us, if you feel up to it,let us know how you are doing from time to time. Hang in there.
Prayers for a speedy return to health, Goob! I love your site and thank you for starting it.
It is always fun to see what cool stuff you can get…. I aspire to be like you and learn the internet world. I have my own domain names that I need to figure out how to do something with!
Take Care, take a nap & feel better!
From one SURVIVOR to another…you will never be the same again! You are in my thoughts and prayers! You are part of a club that no one wants to join! Just one day at a time…it will get better!
Sending hugs & prayers your way!
I am in the same situation and totally understand how so very tired you get…I hope we both kick cancer’s hiney!!! You take care of yourself first and THANK YOU for your work on the site. God Bless!
Goob, we all love you, from the bottom of our hearts. Our prayers go out to you every minute of every day. Please don’t give up. There’s plenty of survivors out there. My nephew, just turned 46 today, has cancer thruout his entire body, but refuse to give up. Chemo IS shrinking his tumors now. You’ll be in my prayers just like he is, Goob. God Bless You.
This is one of the best websites I have had the plesure of coming across…I check on it 4+ times a day. THANK YOU GOOB!!!
keep ur head up in the days, weeks, months & YEARS ahead of you.
Happy Thoughts to you all day from sunny So. California
We all love you so much Goob! You CAN kick this cancer’s ass. We’ll all be praying for you and your health. We look forward to all your updates and spend TONS of time on your site. BUT just remember to take it easy some days, it won’t be the end of the world. We love you and want you to feel better soon!
I cant imagine the difficulties you are going thru but I will keep you in our prayers…and from the experiences I have seen my survivor spouse go thru, I know that it takes an inner strength to behave and conduct yourself with the courageous spirit that also shines thru you. Never say never and never quit!!
I’m sorry to hear all that but glad that you still have a sense of humor. I definitely love the site and everyone at work knows me because I have become a freebie Queen thanks to your site for the most part. And everyone has already said it but we do wish you the best and hope to be your virtual support group.
And I do check the site on more than occassion per day every day M-F. Maybe on the weekend thanks to the lovely apps.
Keep up the great work,
love.
You’ll get through this, I have faith!! I’ve been coming to this site for almost a year now and thanks to you, you have brought my family some pretty awesome freebies. You’ve worked hard on this site and we absolutely love it! I’m positive you’ll pull through and get better soon!
I just wanted to send love, hugs, and prayer your way. My beloved cousin has went thru ovarian cancer and now she is going thru a cancer similar to what Farah Fawcett had, and it just breaks my heart to see what she goes thru and what you must be going thru.
Hey its free is one of my favorite sites and emails. i love your humor and the good deals you send all of us.
We all care about you and you will be in my prayers until…
Awwwww, Goob. We loves ya. Feel free to talk about your junk ANYTIME!
Many Thanks and well Wishes going your way..
I thank you for all of your hard work you do..If it wasn’t for you my mailbox would just be filled with bills..If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have an excuse to ignore my husband. I’am on your site more than once a day..
Get well Soon and Thank You again 🙂

I super admire your sense of humor and your positive attitude! Best of luck to you, I’ll remain a loyal viewer of your fine blog. 🙂
What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited…
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot eat away peace.
It cannot destroy confidence.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot shut out memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot reduce eternal life.
It cannot quench the Spirit.
this has been, and will be my go-to site for my freebie info and daily laughs. its completely understandable and no big deal to miss a free mini deodorant lol, getting better is #1 priority and we all hope you do very soon. in my thoughts and prayers, you’re jokes and awesomely refreshing humor just makes my day! so thank you for all that you do!!
Come on bud, you’ll do it
Hey Goob-
Your amazing outlook on life will get you through this. Thank YOU for all you do. God bless.
We appreciate all you do and wish you a speedy recovery!
May God grant you a full recovery! Thank you for sharing and know that we are all rooting for you!
I started using HIF when I was first diagnosed in Dec. 2010. i am now cancer free and know the feeling of absolute exhaustion! Go with the flow buddy your body will tell you when you need to rest. Listen to it! We will be here waiting for you you! You can beat it!!!!!
Here’s to ya, man. Hang in there & THANKS!!
Wow – check out this long list of “prayers for you” and “here for you’s”! This should show you the impact that you make on our everyday lives! Yea, the occasional freebie is really cool – but the humor, honesty and overall “Goob”, is what keeps me coming back! Just think, if you are strong enough to build this site into what it is now (and even people with a lil computer experience know it’s not easy) – then you will be able to cover come just about everything else! Sorry, I am not one for “well wishing”, but more about “can’t wait for you to get back – let us (HIF’ers) know what needs to be done in the meantime to keep your dream going!” Stay strong!!!
thanks for sharing; i somehow stumbled onto your site a few months ago, and i’m glad i did, i come here pretty much everyday, so thank you for all your tips and links. be strong and hope all goes well!
Hang in there, I was doing chemo two years ago and totally understand, it kicks your ass, but good news is it is kicking the cancers ass as well. It will get better and you will be a stronger more amazing person in the end! God bless you!
GODSPEED! SENDING POSITIVE THOUGHTS, LOVE, PEACE & BLESSINGS YOUR WAY. ALL THE BEST!
Sending good thoughts, love and prayers your way. You bring lots of laughter – and savings – into our lives! Thank you!
I’ve shared your site w/ friends and family and it was your site that got me hooked on Internet Freebies. THANK YOU for all you do and I hope your day is great and your health returns to back normal. Take Care Prayers from Miami, Fl.
It always amazes me the strength of people; and Goob, you are no exception. I know there are a lot of people that truly appreciate what you do and to now know you have been going through this experience… I’m speechless. Sending lots of good thoughts and prayers your way.
Thank you for being so open with us about your situation–we all understand and are grateful for what you do on HIF. Prayers are with you–may you have a fast recovery!!!! =)
So sorry to hear about your health issues. Will definitely keep you in my prayers. Keep smiling and enjoying life. Thanks so much for this site. I really enjoy it and use it as a distraction from work at least once a day. 🙂
My mom is currently going through chemotherapy for breast cancer, and I am pregnant with my third (and later in life) child. She has been such a trooper, and yes, it kicks her butt for a couple days if the week. It has been a pleasure supporting her through this time in her life, and at least someone else understands my nausea and unending sleepiness. I can’t wait to get the “cancer free” news when this is all over and we can move on to new baby and grandparenting. Hope you know you are not alone, and that your recovery goes smoothly and quickly as well. And as far as the freebies thing goes, I just thought the companies were all being stingy!
You only posted this a little over an hour ago and look how many of us have already read and responded. I love this site. Your humor always makes me laugh. Take care of yourself. You’ll be in my thoughts and prayers.
Praying for ya 🙂
So what if you miss the occasional freebie? You need to concentrate on getting better! Thank you for everything you’ve done and all the cool stuff you’ve directed us too!
Goob I hope you feel better and heal soon. I don’t remember how I found your website but I love it! I usually check it in the middle of a hard day of work — just to escape for a few minutes and see what’s up — and your humor always helps. Praying for your speedy recovery!!
I’m so sorry to hear this — I’ll be sending tons of good vibes your way. Stay strong!
Stay strong and best of luck. All things shall pass. We appreciate all your hard work on this site and dont hesitate to update us on your condition!! 🙂
wow- I’m so sad to read about this– you are in my prayers for a speedy recovery–
Hope that you get better quickly. big hugs!
No, thank YOU Goob!
You have been a constant presence in all of our lives since the moment we first discovered your awesome site! Wishing you all the very best for a speedy recovery.
Whenever you are feeling really bad from the chemo/meds please remember how many people that you have rooting for you and sending positive thoughts your way!
Love ya Goob! xx
You are in my thoughts and prayers. You’ll make through, I’m sure, unscathed and stronger than ever.
Your site and humor always brighten my day. We are all sending you lots of love and positive energy!
So sorry to hear of your illness. You are on my prayer list! I do believe in miracles! May God bless you with renewed strength and health!
THANK YOU… Goob, and God Bless…Good things happen to good people…and you are one of them. You make my day!
Gosh Goob, this is a shock. I’m glad you had the insight and resources to buy insurance. Take care and know that we’re all sending good healing vibes your way. If you need anything, just ask.
I’ve always stuck with HIF because of the entertainment I’ve gotten! What a strong guy, especially for letting us know such a personal tidbit in your life! May you gain strength every day and enjoy all those freebies to the fullest. You seriously rock Goob! Kick that cancer’s ass!
Keep up the fight, we’re all with you! I love this website and visit it several times a day, every day and you just make my day!
Goob- sending you good vibes, and I will keep you in my prayers for a full recovery!
You can beat this. We need your witty tales. Keeps my day exciting!
I’ve been a bit lazy the last few months and have just viewed the freebies through my email newsletter. I will click on this site at least once a day for you now though…I want to make sure you are able to keep paying for that health insurance.
And thank you for being a good example of the Entrepreneurial Spirit. You made a business for yourself, and showed great maturity when choosing to purchase health insurance, instead of using those funds to buy big houses and fancy cars. You are an example of the type of person I want my children to look up to.
you are an incredible person, hang in there. positive attitude will help in the long run. We all love you and this site!
God bless you! You help so many and are so awesome… keeping you in our prayers. Take care of yourself first… we will all be here when you are well and healthy again!!!!
So sorry to hear about your health issues. Stay positive, eat right, get plenty of sleep, rest. Don’t worry about this site. We all will continue to visit, and share it with others. I am so glad you have health coverage. That is no laughing matter. I visit every day, more than once, and laught to myself at your comments. No other free web site has the comic/improv feel like yours does. You will be in my prayers. God be with you and bless you. Maybe you can make a second career of being a stand up or sit down comic?
I find you to be the funniest person blogging. You make my husband and I laugh till we cry. Thanks for all the freebies! I never has so much stuff in my life till I came to this site!!!
Thanks for all that you do! Beat it!
You are totally in my prayers. But i want to say thank you to you. I love your site and have gained so much from it (as I write I am eating the Soybar I got in the mail today). Keep positive and keep you your great sense of humor.
All the best to you and NEVER think that what you do doesn’t matter to someone! Thank you for all the time you give to your followers~May GOD BLESS YOU during this difficult time!
Thanks for letting us know-I’ve been wondering. I check you 2-3 times a day because you make me smile. You are in my thioughts each day. Good luck and hope to hear from you when you can.
You are in my prayers!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!! You have saved my family so much money and I am so thankful for swagbucks. I would not of know about it if it were not for you!!!!!!! I hope that when I signed up you got my referral credits 🙂 I hope you have a speedy recovery.
You are an AWESOME person. Keep your upbeat attitude and you will be just fine. Laughter is a great healer.
Goob!!! Many positive thoughts and good wishes heading your way. Keep a positive attitude and don’t take NO for an answer…ever!
Look at all these positive comments….now aren’t you glad you shared about your health? Please know others care about you. Thanks so much for all your hard work on this site….we truly do appreciate you!
Hang in there! 🙂
I lurk on your website from time to time, and I’m so thankful for the page you’ve created. You have a cunning sense of humor that I really enjoy, and help us get freebies to boot! I don’t think I’ve ever commented, but I want to thank you now for all that you supply for us. I’m praying for you!
May God be with you Goob! Your website has brought me so much help to me while I have been underemployed. I am really glad that you were able to buy insurance so that you had it in your time of need. When you are ready…we’ll be here waiting for your humor and watching for my favorite word….FREE!
Goob, I just wanted to add to the well-wishers here and let you know that you’re in my thoughts!
take care 🙂
WOW! This group is going to form a large prayer circle around you. You have to believe that you will be healed quickly and completely. God cannot help but hear and respond to all of these prayers.
Stay strong, Goob.
Your positive attitude will likely be more powerful than the chemo. Keep it up!
Thank you for filling our lives with your witty charm. Prayers to you for a speedy recovery!
I will pray for you every day. Thank you for all you do! God bless.
Your fans are here for you Goob…..and thank YOU for this awesome site! Sending prayers your way…
Praying for your health and a speedy recovery!
God Bless 🙂
Your positive attitude and humor is a huge encouragement to those who might be dealing with something similar. I’ll be praying for an easy, speedy recovery!
Wow, Goob. Just reading through these comments shows how much you are appreciated. I don’t know of any other freebie/deal sites that come across like you do… how you turn a simple “get a free sample of pantyliners” into something I can laughoutloud about. So, THANK YOU, for doing such a great job at what you do – just being you… and alerting us to FREE STUFF! Praying for your healing and recovery. Cancer has touched my life in so many ways, and I work closely with a Cancer ministry here in DFW… I know it’s difficult and chemo is a beast, but you can get through this!!! Thank you for telling us so that we can be praying for you specifically!
Best Wishes to you Goob! You will kick cancer’s ass!!! You are in my thoughts and prayers! Thanks for all you do! Here’s to a speedy recovery! Make sure you always keep your delightful sense of humor!! =)
Good luck to you!
Hang in there Goob! We’re all extremely grateful for your site, and we are ALL PRAYING for you. <3
Praying for a speedy,complete recovery!
This is crushing news, but I hope everything goes well on your end, Goob. We’re here for you!
All my best wishes to you… this really hit hard. I will continue to support this site for more than one reason.
Hoping a complete and speedy recovery!
I am really sorry to find out that you have cancer. I will continue to come here for the freebies and send others here as well. Please do not for a moment put this site over your health. I hope you win the fight!
You will get through it.
Sending much love to you. YOU have cancer…cancer DOES NOT have you! Prayers for you! POSITIVE goes a long way!!!
Many thoughts and prayers with you! I often come to the site just for giggles.
Oh, Goob, so sorry, I’ve lost so many beloved people and even a dog to cancer, It’s a hated enemy. But, I also know many people who have recovered. Keep yourself rested and do what’s right for your health, we’ll wait for you to get back on your feet.
I will be praying for your quick return to good health. You have made me laugh every day with your witty comments about the freebie site and I wish that each of those laughs turn into good health blessings for you!
God Bless you Goob! I hope this all goes well for you and I’m glad I found your page! And yes! Please rest we understand!! Good thoughts going your way!
OMGosh Ryan…..So saddened by the news. But, I’m glad you’ve shared with us b/c we are your “internet friends” support system. So what that you’ve missed the occasional freebie…..I think we’ll survive just as you will survive this bump in the road of life.
I know I’ve told you this before but I read HIF’s pages to the kids over breakfast daily and we just howl laughing at your wit and humor : ) and for this I say, Thank-You.
TO MY FELLOW HIFFERS: The best gift we can give Goob right now, besides our love and prayers-ofcourse, is to spread the word about HIF even further and wider. Let’s all post how much we LOVE Hif on our Facebook pages, Twitter acct’s and so on……..even post a link back to the site. The more views, the better…..right???
Our thoughts and prayers are with you not just on this day but, always.
God Bless You, Ryan.
Take care of YOURSELF.
PS Goob, Are there ANY other ways that we can help concerning the site/Facebook page, etc?????? Please post.
Prayers for you! Love your site and I tell all my friends and family about it. There are days when your words give me (and I’m quite sure a lot of others) the uplift we need for the day. Take care!
Lots of prayers for you! Thank you for sharing.
I visit your site at least 4 times a week and tell all my friend about it, WOW you’re up to $.000003 with me and my crew 🙂
I wish you all the best with your treatment, I’ll say an extra prayer for Goob for a FULLY recovery!!! Keep your spirit HIGH even when it’s tough, keep your fan club posted it will make your feel better and us too!!!! Best Wishes in your recovery!!!!!!!!!! YOUR ROCK DUDE!
I come back b/c of the vibe of this site… the feeling of everyone on here is a friend even though I’ve never seen anyone’s face! And b/c of you, Goob, your pretty darn funny. You could stick to just a link and some information on the freebie link, but instead you insert smiles on hundreds, if not thousands, of peoples faces, and I for one sincerely think that kinda thing makes a difference in our world.
Your optimism is great medicine too. I hope you get back even just a portion of the optimism and joy you send daily to help keep kicking cancer’s butt!
“But the fact of the matter is there are days where the chemo kicks my ass.” And this is the reason why I don’t give a damn if you miss every freebie from now till the end of time(which we all know will be in 2012 NOT…well maybe not..;O) Cause your being straight up and not trying to blow smoke up our ass about it.
thank you so much for what you do for all of us! I hope you have a fast and full recovery! prayers will be coming thru cyberspace!!
Wow I had no clue this was your income! That’s amazing what you’ve done w your life and how it has grown. God has blessed you with this opportunity and im so happy you took the chance and made it grow. It really touched me how something as simple as people viewing your page can make as big a difference as to get you health care and save your life. You’ll pull through this chemo. :). And sweet dreams during your naps 🙂
I look forward to HIF everyday, you are a cheerful part of my life, not only your free offers, but your words, you make me laugh daily! Please know that you are in my prayers daily, and I hope that you’ll have a easy, quick and successful recovery in your fight with cancer. Hang in there, better days ahead! Your devoted subscriber, Kathy K. from Phila, PA.
I appreciate what you’ve done and want to THANK YOU!!! Your positive attitude is great and will be praying for you speedy recovery! Resting is necessary during this time! We’ll still be here!
Thank you for your honesty and I’m with you on the “not broadcasting” things. I have always felt people think negative when you tell them things and I’m a positive type of gal….yes, I also believe in karma!! ha-ha! However over the years I’ve learned that being honest can also a good thing…..more prayers can come your way and the power of prayers is awesome!! You are going to be kept in mine until you are fully recovered!! Number one thing, take care of yourself! We’ll be fine here and waiting for your full attention once again!!
<3
I have to agree with everyone before me — you’re doing a great job and I wish you a speedy recovery. Everyone’s prayers will help. You’ve got lots of fans & friends that you’ll probably never meet, but we’re all here to support you!
Hang in there…I’ve had it twice and kicked it twice. Prayer helps and we are all praying for you ! I love your site and what you do. xoxo to you and yours
I visit your site a couple of times a day if for nothing else your humor. I will add you to the prayer list at chruch and am lifting you up in prayer right now. My God bless you
prayers are with you, my son had it 21 years ago…( and still going strong) God won’t give you more than you can handle, hang in there….hugssssss
Prayers and Positive Thoughts. I stumbled upon the site, and stayed becauses of the personality and humor!!!
OMG. I liked you before but I LOVE you now! You’re in my prayers! Keep up the fantastic work you’ve done on this site and keep on kicking cancer’s ASS!!
Praying for you Goob! and Thank you for making our days a little brighter
I was wondering where you went! I’m sorry to hear about everything you’re going through. But KEEP FIGHTING! May God bless you.
hey goob, you better be there when u say u’ll be there, whether it’s 8 or 10am just be there!!!, so don’t go quitting on the treatments. u have to coz we’ll be waiting – to bring u sunshine as u brought us in the form of freebies 🙂 we are all toughies don’t forget that (heart melting…)
Thinking of you as you fight this stupid cancer! I’m a survivor and went through chemo and radiation, so I can totally relate to it “kicking your butt”. I love that this has ended up being your JOB! I love this site. Thank YOU!
I was sorry to hear about your health issues. I myself am a cancer survivor so I know what you are going through. Mine was relatively minor but still I had to have radiation which left me feeling like crap yet I never missed even 1 day of work except for the 2 days where I had to have a minor operation.
Keep up the good work – I thoroughly enjoy your site and would miss it if it were to go away!!!
Thank you, GOOB! Your non-chalent comments make me smile when times are rough. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank YOU! For all that you do. Hang in there! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers! <3
Sorry to hear about your cancer 🙁 I’ll be praying for your quick recovery!
Thank you for sharing. I love this site and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers! Your comments are a highlight of my day. You always make me laugh.
So sorry to hear of your illness. We’ll keep you busy on the site when you’re up to it. God bless you with healing and strength.
It’s us that should be thanking you! You bring humor AND freebies into our life everyday! I think most of us feel as if we know you and I know ALL of us are routing for you!
Sending up prayers!
Sending light, love, healing energy, prayers (in other words, whatever works) for a speedy recovery. Focus on yourself and get well.
Keeping you in my prayers Goob..May you get well soon. I love your HIF Site
Thanks for all you do!
Love n God Bless
Thank *you*….for the freebies and the mirthful commentary. Hope you are 110% very soon!
Hang in there! You are inspiring and uplifting!
Love you Goob! Best wishes for your recovery. I check your site out everyday. You make me happy.
You are awesome Goob!!! Sending prayers good vibes and everything else good your way!!
Dear Goob, sending hugs, prayers, physical and emotional strength and well wishes to you. Your site makes my day – every day!
Goob- You’ve created a community around freebies using your clever humor and do what you love every day. Not many people can say that. I applaud you.
Good mojo and best wishes your way. Thanks for the site and thanks for sharing with us.
You are brave to open your heart to us, virtual strangers whose lives barely brush past yours but who are a tribe by virtue of the work you have done to create this community. We will treat your open heart with the kindness and tenderness it deserves. All the best to you, you Goob.
I know that many prayers are sent your way. Take care of yourself. I have not met anyone who has not had chemo kick their ass. You are most important right now-not a website. Let us know how you are doing. We will be here when you are ready!
@^@ WOW! I have serious compassion for your situation and I do hope with all of my being you kick this! Thanks so much for everything! (((hugs))) And no matter what I will keep using your site!
Oh my goodness! My thoughts and prayers are with you. My dad and nephew are cancer survivors (as well as many other people I know) so cancer research means a great deal to me. I have seen how tired it can make a person, so I feel special knowing you wear yourself out trying to make us happy. The fact that you are providing free or cheap deals to us is a blessing. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Listen to your doctor but mainly listen to yourself. Your body knows when it is being pushed too hard. If we HIFFERS miss a freebie or coupon or deal, we will understand, RIGHT?! Your life is much more important.
Goob, Know that you’re ‘family’ here is rooting for you. Keep smiling. 🙂
Thanks for sharing. You are awesome! So glad you have the benefit of insurance. Keep us posted, and I look forward to sending more friends your way.
You ROCK. Praying for you! I think you’re hilarious, I love reading you. Take care! You’re special!
so sorry Goob!!!! I think we understand you missing a few freebies…either way it’s still fun to read your older freebies over and over again…makes me chuckle over and over again! keep you head up and keep pressing on. This too shall pass, and you will be better/stronger because of it!
I am praying for you, your treatment and for the success of your website. God Bless You! You certainly have blessed all of us many times over with all the great things you have posted for us.
*prayers
good luck!!! I’ve been cancer free now for 10 years. chemo sucks but i got thru it and so will you
Goob … you are like the odd first few rays of sun shine on gloomy days after lots of rain… you jokes always lift my spirits a peg up wherever they are at the moment…. your words are like that so important “feel good factor” and this is what you do for us complete strangers .. freebies are just incidental..!! we will wait … and pray for you ! Hang in there …sending your way loads of good wishes and cheer !
From one freebie hunter to another prayers and good thoughts. That evil cancer hits to many in our lives. My 80 year old mom fought it and won..had aggressive chemo and lost every hair on her body…that bothered her more than the cancer till i bought her cute wigs. My sister fought and won and so many others. We are all touched by it in one way or another. Let us all remember to keep fighting for the cure!
Sending hugs and praters your way!
I’ll be sending prayers your way. Focus on healing and don’t worry about us!
I am so sorry to hear this. you will be in my prayers. you can get thru this w your wonderful personality. know that many people will have you in their hearts and minds. we hope you get better !
You have a great attitude and I hope things go well for you. Sending positive thoughts your way.
Goob, you are in my prayers! Thank you for your honesty, and this beautiful website. Please keep us posted and may you be healthy again soon!
Wow….thanks for sharing with everyone! I found your site about 2 years ago and have been here every day since. I feel like I know you and lots of other people on this site like I do my own family! Stay positive and healthy. All my thoughts are with you….this too shall pass.
You will be in my prayers Goob! Thank you for posting great freebies.
hope things get better love this site I always tell everyone I know I’m lucky too have a job not the best job in the world but a job I’ve had family with cancer too I hear chemo is rough of course back then there wasn’t the medical advances that there are now so I beleive you have more of a fighting chance than my family members did I’ll be praying for you!!!
Praying for you. God bless.
Hope you are up and around and feeling better soon Goob! Love your site and your sense of humor.
I’m currently fighting cancer too, just had my 9th chemo treatment today. I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers! The freebies make my days a bit brighter! Thank you.
Praying for your strength through this!! We Love HIF!
I’m so sorry to hear the struggle you are going through. I’ve had many lov ed ones go through it as well. My friend who has survived cancer FIVE times, yes FIVE had a motto that everyone dealing with cancer should live by….”Kicking Cancers Ass One Day at a Time”!!! Will be keeping you in my thoughts. I visit this page at least a few times a day during work and at night and look forward to your witty comments more than the samples themselves! 🙂 Hang in there Goob!!!
big hug and lots of prayers from my family!!!
Praying for you too! Hang in there and don’t get discouraged. You’ll make it through.
Hugging, hoping, praying, and thanking you for all that you have done!!!
Best of luck to you and thank you for sharing this, and sharing the freebies!
I am so sorry to hear about your health prolems. I want to thank you for the little brightness you have brought into my life. I have enjoyed reading each of your little quips and look forward to checking the site every day. God bless you Good and I pray you have an easy go of things from here on out and recover quickly. Thanks again.
Sending well wishes and healing thoughts your way.
You’re surrounded by friends and members of the HIF family! GROUP HUG!!!
Wow! That was kind of a shock, but I’m glad that you are doing O.K. Please keep us posted on your condition and how things are going with you. It’s been a rough year, so far, for a lot of people, but I’m hoping that things get better soon. Thinking positive thoughts for you! *hugs*
Lots of good thoughts coming your way. Thanks for sharing that with us.
**** God bless you. I love your website. I pray everything works out well.
Wow this is so heart breaking. We all very much appreciate everything you do for us! I wish you the best and speedy recovery! <3
I love this site, mostly because of you! Your daily insights bring many happy laughs and moments. Take care, and my thoughts are with you during this trying time.
xoxo
I am a 17 year survivor, so there is hope. Though it may be difficult at times, staying positive and having a good support system does help. Praying for you.
(((HUGS)))
Wow. Thoughts and prayers are coming your way.
Thank you Goob. Going to HIF is a fun part of my day, I enjoy your wit and the freebies of course. I know it must have taken a lot to tell all the HIFfers about your story.
I look forward to the day when you post a free cure for cancer. : )
All my best on a successful treatment and recovery.
Praying for you. Take care, Goob! We all love you!!!
Praying for you as you fight this!
Oh my goodness 🙁 I’m so sorry to hear this! We’ve dealt with this a lot in my family, so I can relate somewhat. I hope you respond well and are feeling like yourself again soon. (((HUGS)))

I am a big fan of the “Life is Good” brand and they have a shirt that says “The little things in life are the big things.” Your site is like that- one of those things that I look forward to each day in the hope of some little freebie. Hope and optimism go a long way. Hang in there.
You will be in my prayers !
