Looking for freebies online has proven to be a little more difficult than I thought..lol
It seems like everything is with a bunch of terms and offers for other stuff I don't want. Does anyone else like looking for free samples of things they never really tried before? Is anyone really successful at finding the good freebies?

So far I had Luigi in finding on free books, even though they are the online version. Shipping costs for them (I have to buy them abroad) isn't sometimes good and I have to resort to them. Looking for freebies online is touch and you have to be careful since many would insists on downloading something that you don't. Piece of advice - don't rush and ber quick to press the cancel button if necessary.

It's not all that easy any more. I hate the ones where you have to "like" their Facebook page, when you don't even know if you like the product or not. I though that was why they gave away freebies, so you could try them before buying.
I still get some, but not many. I think it's best to sign up for sites that send emails with links to freebies. It takes a lot less time and I haven't found many other freebies that they don't have already.

Those days are gone! Back in 2008/09...boy you could get tons of stuff...you just had to go to the site of your favorite (or any!) brand and they'd send you a sample of their new product. I did that with lot of places and I am just now starting to get to about half my stash of freebies I got. Toothpaste, tooth brushes, shampoo, conditioner, lotion and body wash and dry foods like cereals and noodles were the most common...so I haven't had to buy that stuff for quite some time! But lately, last year or two...it has stopped. I don't know why. I have even tried to get coupons from places, but they tell me to check the sunday newspapers or join their facebook page and see what they have there...which is usually nothing or not worth keeping track of and printing out with ink!
