Getting free samples is ALWAYS a great idea. AND at SandwichINK, I currently have a great giveaway going - two wireless digital photo picture frames - perfect for family memories along with several great samples of Salonpas pain relief patches. And they are so nice, they have given me links for those who don't win to still get a free sample of their new pain relief patch! Very cool. Thanks again for an interesting article!

We also take advantage of the farmer's market for that. I love the idea of free preschool! Danelle @Angie: Co-ops are a fantastic way to get organic produce if they have one available in your town.

I've just started writing down when I get a free sample, win something or get a product to review from a company... every little bit helps. I really like reviewing things that my family actually uses. I can't wait to get another printer (mine died) so I can take maximum cents off with printed coupons. And I need to get better at matching that up with store sales and whatnot. I have a friend who says that she just can't seem to get organized with using coupons and whatnot (even though her mother-in-law cleans up at CVS!) I keep telling her to start small/slowly and once she sees how much money she'll save she'll be hooked. My best money-saving move yet? I think it was the $88 jeans I got from Victoria's Secret for about $10. I love those jeans. I've been wanting some, but that is a ridiculous amount to spend, but $10! Wow! I am really excited about saving money. I'm going to subscribe and mark this post. Thanks! Great post!

Look around for co-ops.....gardens (free veggies) , preschools (YES, free preschool!!!), etc. Usually all that is required is a little bit of your time, but since you're sharing with so many others, it's a fun and easy investment! :) Awesome article!! :)

Thank you. I'm currently cutting costs, and the way you've written - 'Action' after each point makes it very very reader friendly. One lingering doubt that suddenly struck me was, - are all these freebies only for people inside the USA? I mean the ones you've linked to in the post? specifically rebox, swap mamas, and "free samples list"? But I am grateful for your post anyway. I Very happy I found your site. Thank you.
