FREEBIES

Okay, I'm a big sample/freebie person! I think ever since I went to high school and attended events in where I received goodies/freebies I have been ADDICTED. In high school I went to workshops, showrooms, corporate offices, seminars and more places who just loved sharing, which I think is the reason why I'm addicted to samples, giveaways, and freebies.

People don't realize how many companies love sponsoring events and giving things away to get their name out there. For example, years back me and my friends had a party and our goody bags were filled of freebies to our guest, which was just complementary from our sponsors. I can go on for days about the things I have received from free to sample products I have tested. To name a few I have received Channel to Prada products, designer costume jewelry, designer t-shirts, lip gloss, flat irons, clutches/handbags, new energy drinks, beauty products and much more!

Another way I receive sample products and freebies is by just signing up! I love when I check my mailbox and there's a random gift in my mailbox. I don't care if it's a sample of a new shampoo or a new hair dye product ( these are all things I have received) the point is that it's FREE. The only chance you take by signing up for most on-line freebies that many are affected with spam, but don't worry I'm a pro ;-) that can assist you.

To help you guys out I have presented some freebies you can sign-up for now:
When you sign up for online freebies you want to always check the link. If the link is not from the company or from a official company/brand you don't know of....close the window. Also if they ask you to fill-out a survey..It's a no go!

The next thing you should do if you do find a official website...my thing is always give a email address you no longer use. This helps by still getting your freebie, but not seeing junk mail that follows sometimes. Another trick of mine is a different name. Yes, I have mail that comes to me under a different name. I do this because like I have said before these freebies sites are usually affected with spam and companies also want to follow through with you about their product. I had another reason why I use another name too, but I can't think of the reason right now...so please forgive me.
