Free Sample of Starbucks Natural Fusions
This is a great sample for all you coffee lovers out there! Click here to try it for yourself, free from Amazon!
Free Sample of Salonas Pain Relief Patch
Hurry, when I just checked this out, it said there's only 212 free samples left! Never tried these before, but maybe you'll find a new product you enjoy! :)
Get a Free Baby Juno DVD
You have to be a mom (or an expectant mom) for this one! Just join this site and you'll receive a free Baby Juno DVD in the mail! I read reports from people who received it, so it is legitimate!
And as a reminder, you may want to start a 'junk mail' email address, that you can use when you sign up for offers like this. Don't want to fill up your personal email with junk mail! :)
$10 off $20 at Sears
Here's a coupon for $10 off an apparel or accessories purchase at Sears (in-store only). It's only good today and tomorrow, so hurry!
Free Sample of Purina One
I thought this one had expired, but I just checked and it's still working! It's another free sample through Walmart. Click here to get it!
Welch's Grape Juice
I was able to snag a coupon for a free 64 oz. Welch's Grape Juice bottle here a few days ago. When they offer the coupon, it seems to only last a few hours. There were reports this morning it was out again, but when I checked I couldn't find it. Check it out, and maybe you'll be a lucky one! :) But if not, there are at least several different dollar off coupons that are always offered.
Bird's Eye Vegetable Coupon on FB
I'm not sure what its for . . . I don't have a printer here! But it says its a 'high value' Birds Eye Coupon, so like them on Facebook and see what you get!
UPDATE: I just read that it's a $0.50 coupon, but if your grocery store doubles them and there's a sale, you can still score a great deal!

Instant Win Games
I don't spend much time on these, but here's a link with TONS of games, and they keep it very updated!! I also like how they note how many prizes the site is giving out, so you know if it's even worth trying! But I have played the Hall's Game, and won it twice! And I got a free 12-pack of Coca Cola from one of these games, but I can't remember which one now!
Have fun!
Another one I like playing just for fun is Office Max's Elfmastown on facebook. You have to choose the "Holiday Grab Bag" and then choose an elf. I've only won a pen on there, but it's fun to play even if you don't win! :)
And one more I'll tell you about . . . for the last several weeks State Farm has had an instant win game on facebook (but it ended today!), and some people were posting about when they won, and they found out it was always at the same time of day! So I tried then, and both Tim and I won $25 visa gift cards! Grateful to have some gas money while we're in America! :)

Yay!
I got an email from Viewpoints, a site that offers customer reviews on all sorts of products. Back in November they were offering a deal that if you reviewed 10 products in 30 days you would get an amazon gift card. Wasn't quite sure if they would come through, but others I read had received the same kind offer in the past, so I figured I would try it out! Sure enough, I got an email from Viewpoints this week with a $10 gift card code! Next time I hear about it, I'll be sure to pass it along for you to cash in on as well! :)
Smile.ly
I joined Smile.ly a couple weeks ago. It's a site that offers you free products, which are often new test products. I have heard mixed reviews on it . . . that some people don't receive products too quickly, etc. But as soon as I signed up there was a 'mission' for me to receive a free carton Florida's Natural Orange Juice, along with 10 $1 off coupons to share with friends. Its kind of fun really, you earn 'smiles' for sharing your reviews with friends, posting them on fb and twitter, etc. You try to reach 50 smiles while your mission is assigned to you.
I would recommend checking it out. Can't promise anything great, but you may find a fun mission or two to join!
NoMoreRack.com
This is a relatively newer site, that offers just 8 special deals everyday starting at noon. Some are great, some aren't so great. If you sign up through here you can get $10 off your order. Some are reporting that it's only good with a $20 purchase, but some say they can use it with only a few dollars. Shipping is only $2, so you might be able to score a great deal, or better yet, get something for free! Check it out and see if it works for you (I haven't yet, but plan on it soon!)! :)
Another Pampers Post!
If you have little kiddos around, you may want to click here for a free sample of Pampers UnderJams!
Pampers Gifts to Grow
If you have little ones around or relatives with little ones, make sure you join Pampers Gifts to Grow! Click here. On each Pampers package you buy there is a code you can redeem, but often there are codes that are offered online. I've never bought any Pampers products (I have no need!), but I collect the online points and so far I have 625. You can redeem the points for coupons on diapers.com, baby toys, prints from shutterfly, etc. And they just recently started offering a $10 Starbucks card for 1,100 points.
My Freebies!
I know many of you saw this on facebook, but for those that didn't, I just wanted to share the freebies that I've received in the last month or so. I'm so excited to get 'home' and open them all! :) I'll share more specifics once I get there - where I've received them from, and a few more sites that you should check out!
Free Sample of True Citrus
Click here to get your free sample!
Receive a Free Shout Color Catcher Sample
Click here for your free sample!
Free Bottle of Excedrin
I think this has expired for today, but check it out again tomorrow! They give out 10,000 each day, worth up to $5.99. Click here for a coupon for a free full-size bottle of Excedrin.
Free Sample of Vaseline Intensive Rescue
Click here to get a free sample from Walmart!
Domino's Pizza
More facebook savings!
If you like Domino's Pizza on facebook, there's a 50% off coupon code to use when ordering online, to celebrate their 50th year. Good through Dec 19.

3 Red Box Rentals for $1
You can get 3 rentals at redbox for $1. Yes THREE! That's only a few cents for each rental! The offer is only good tonight . . . though they've been saying that for the last several days, so not sure how long it will last!
Head over to Groupon and if you aren't already a member, you'll need to sign up with your email address and nearest city. If the red box offer doesn't come up, come back and click here once you are registered to access the red box offer!
I had some credits saved up from some coupon codes they sent out, so I actually got mine for free! My husband and I don't watch movies often, but I figure for free, we might as well enjoy some! Looking forward to using the free rentals over the Christmas vacation!
Ebates
Ebates is an excellent way to save some money on your online purchaes! For every purchase you make online, clicking through their website first, they offer a certain % back. Depending on the store you are shopping at, they offer between 1-20% back. They also offer weekly deals where they give double percent back on certain sites. It's particularly helpful if you're making a large purchase. Recently my husband was purchasing some new printers for the college and was able to score 5% back, and on your first purchase over $20, you also get an added $5 rebate. Your money is returned to you once a quarter, so you do have to wait a bit, but hey, money is money! :)
Tide Giveaway
I can't remember now where I read it - I was going back and checking some blogs but not sure which one it was on! That there will be a Tide giveaway on facebook on Friday at 4pm. I think they give away 5,000 products, but they go in just a couple minutes! A couple weeks ago they did it (at a different day and time!) and I was able to get a full-size bottle of tide spray stain remover sent to my home. So if I were you, I would go like them on fb and keep my eye out for more announcements from them!
Also, not sure what it entails, but I read that Snuggle will be doing some giveaways on their fb page tomorrow morning, and today I won some beauty product giveaway Payless Shoes was doing. Facebook is a great place to get lots of company giveaways! :)

Sketchers Shape Ups
Not free, but a great deal if you want some! One pair for $34.95 or 2 for $60. Haven't tried this link (I don't plan on buying any, but passing it along for anyone that might want them! :) Click here.
Listia
Listia is another site I've found that is a lot of fun. Its similar to ebay, but instead of bidding with money, you bid with credits. If you click through that link you are guaranteed to start with 50 credits, but often as many as 300-400. I think mine started with 300. Then you get 50 credits each for linking with facebook and twitter, and often you'll 'find' credits as you bid, sign in, etc. So far I haven't 'sold' anything on there, but I've already gotten 5 pairs of earrings, a cookbook and a slipcover for a couch (from Pottery Barn) - all for free! The seller can choose to charge shipping or not, so I only bid on the auctions that ship for free. It's a real fun site, and I'm considering auctioning one of my $5 amazon cards that I won through swagbucks (and since I can email the code it saves on shipping!), since those are one of the highest bidding items. But have fun with it, and definitely check it out! :)

Save with Freebies!
This has probably been the most fun way I've found to save. I joined a few different sites on facebook that give me updates when a freebie is available, and I follow several blogs as well. I will be passing those freebies along on here, as well as posting any others that I personally find. Stay tuned for freebies! :)
I will pass along some of my favorite sites so you can check those on your own - I know I cannot stay as up-to-date as they can! Sorry, I can't dedicate my whole life to this blog! :) And these sites don't only offer freebies, but good deals, giveaways and other savings as well.
Mojosavings.com
Hip2save.com
Moneysavingmom.com
There are several others that I can't recall at this time, but once I get them compiled I'll post them for you to enjoy as well! :)
On a side note with freebies: if you plan on doing this often, I would sign up for an additional email address (I love gmail the most!) where you can send all your freebie junk mail. And believe me, you will get it! I never give out my personal address, just always use my 'junk' address when signing up for those. That way you can confirm an email if you need to, but you don't get your inbox constantly filled with junk! :)

Survey Sites
Depending how much time you can spend online, survey sites are a great way to earn a little extra cash. Just recently I've earned two $5 checks, a $15 Border's card, and some free samples to test. There's lots more that will be coming soon, but I am kind of new to all of this yet.
Here are some of my favorite sites to try out:
Synovate. This one is by far my favorite. The first week or two I only received a couple surveys, but since then it seems like everytime I check my email there's a survey waiting for me! A couple weeks ago I was asked to try out a new shampoo and conditioner and give them feedback, and just this afternoon I took a 20 minute survey for 6500 points. 5000 points gets you a $5 check in the mail, so I was happy! Not every single one ends up that way, but they tell you ahead of time the estimated time and payout. This by far has been the best I've found . . . and I also like too, that if you want to take a break, close out the window, that you can come back later in the day to finish up the survey. I'm impressed!
MyView. This is another one I've found fun to do. That's one of the greatest things about it - the surveys are normally fun! I haven't yet cashed out, but once you have 25,000 points you can get a $25 amazon gift card. One thing about this site is that you can't always qualify for all the surveys, but even if you don't, they give you a small number of points anyway.
E-Rewards is another one I belong to, but you have to be invited to join by a company. I was invited in an email from Delta, since I am part of their frequent flyer program, so I'm sorry I can't ask you to join that one. Its a pretty good one as well, and that's where I recently got a $15 Borders card. You can only order one of those per year, so I'm waiting til January to order my next one! I use that one occasionally . . . maybe once every few weeks, but its not my favorite.
I belong to a few others but so far I haven't been impressed with them - either you never qualify for the surveys or the point limits are so far out of reach. I'll pass them along if I find them more reliable in the future, but so far - not so great.

Swagbucks!
I'm sure many of you have heard of swagbucks, and are maybe unsure about it. I just joined the end of October, and have already earned $40 in amazon gift cards. There are many incentives and deals you find when you first join, and now I use it primarily for searching. I just use that instead of google on my usual searches, and earn anywhere from 30-40 swagbucks a day just by doing that. Since $5 gift cards are 450, then you can earn $5 in less than 2 weeks, just by your normal searching!
There are also a couple of ways to get daily swagbucks for free, which I'll post about more later, but for now, get started by clicking here.

And So It Begins.
Since I am on this earth to be a steward of what God has given me, I believe it's important to use His resources wisely. I endeavor to use this blog to be an encouragement to others who are trying to do the same! Please feel free to leave comments or questions on any of the posts!
