WFMW: Putting Freebies to Good Use

by Kristie on January 20, 2010 · 6 comments


I can’t tell you how much fun it is to open your mailbox and find something other than bills waiting for you.

I send for all the freebies that catch my interest, and have found several useful ways to use them.  The first thing I have to point out is that when you send for the freebies I post here, you’ll often times receive coupons with them as well.

Here is a few of the ways I have been able to put all the freebies I get each week to good use.

  • These make great stocking stuffers.
  • I have added some of the freebies to a gift basket.
  • Shampoos, deodorant, and toothpaste are the perfect size for gym bags or purses.
  • I send my son to camp with the sample sizes that I acquire throughout the year.
  • You can donate these to a local shelter.
  • If you have ever participated in Operation Christmas Child you know that the sample sizes are the perfect size for the shoe boxes.
  • I love to add a sample snack to my purse for those times that you, or your child needs a quick snack.

I hope that you will be able to use some of these ideas too.  It doesn’t make too much sense to send for the freebies if you can’t find a use for them.  I would love to the different ways you have used the freebies you find in your mailbox.

Here are a couple of my
favorite freebie resources:

Get FREE samples of name-brand products from FreeFly’s when you join here!
You can get freebies and coupons from Cool Savings here.
Sample various brand name products from Quality Health.
You’ll also get great freebies in your mailbox from Swiffer®, Dawn®, Cascade®, Febreze® and Mr. Clean®. Sign up today.

Thank you for the freebie links!
I keep sample shampoo/soap etc in the guest bathroom for those who arrive without. It happens more often than I would have expected.

I also donate some of the freebies that I receive that I don't use, give coupons to friends, and have a big basket of "bathroom products" on our guest bathroom.

I love the idea of having a basket of bathroom products for guests!
