Everyone likes something for free. I'm not talking about the spritz of perfume on a pretty piece of paper or a 1/4 inch of food that you get at Cosco on Saturdays. I'm talking about things that make a dent in our everyday lives. Here are two examples:
One
In a welcome bag at a doggy event, I received a free package of Urban Wolf Natural Grain Free Dog Food Base. This base sells for $42.75. We mixed it with our... own meat and it made 20 cups of wet food. This is comparable to 20 cans of premium dog food @ $3.27/ea. In total that means that we saved 42.75 + (3.27x20)+HST or $122.21 dollars. Now that's a savings to bark at!
Two
I sent away for Purex samples twice last year and received 3 packets 2x. Each packet did 2 medium loads of laundry. Purex 24-33 L Laundry detergents sells regularly for $5.27 or 18cents per load (30loads). So these packets saved me only $2.18cents .... but it did do 1week and a half of laundry.
So check out some of the online freebies I've posted today.
Ask local retailers if they have sample sizes of items to try. Ask nicely and say something like 'I'm really interested in this product you have ... do you have a sample I can take home to try?' The worst they can say is no ... the other answer is yes and that is FREE!
Oh and SHARE - what are some of the great freebies you've come across?
