Do you often recieve freebies or samples of products that you've ordered online? Where do you go to get them and what's your favorite?
I often go to walmart.com and under the "in your store" then "samples" and get free samples of things like deoderant, shampoo, pads, cat food, cat treats, snacks. I also go to www.dove.com for samples of lotions, body washes and shampoos.

I love the walmart freebies. I check about once a week for new items to pop up. It works great for travel sized items. We just order them when we see them and when we are going on a trip we already have most of what we need. Works wonders.

That is my favorite for freebies. I do the same thing, I stock up on the travel sized items for when I travel. The items are always things you normally use too, which is great.

I used to be a member of a web forum and there were always freebies available. However, they began charging a membership fee right when I lost my job, so unfortunately, I no longer have my "good" links. Thanks for info.

Although I assume you probably already know about it, there are freebies listed on FatWallet.com.

When you go to FatWallet.com, go under Forums, free stuff.
Another one-woman site that I really like (she is really on top of the deals) is TipBlog.com

www.about.com has a newsletter with freebies that the moderator of that part of the site has tried. That way the ones that aren't any good are weeded out. Also they alert you to interesting aspects or pit falls (such as you mailbox fills up with junk so use a temporary email address) if there are any. The newsletter comes out once a week in your email so you don't miss the interesting ones they've found.

I didn't know they had a freebie newsletter at that site, thanks. I think it's a great site for information and how-to's.
