:: Online Freebie Tips ::

ONLINE FREEBIE TIPS

* Have a seperate email account just for freebies. This will keep you from getting any spam in your normal email account.

* Do not use your real phone number, unless you need to verify in order to receive the free item you requested.

* Be very careful when looking for free stuff on other so called "free sites". There's are many scam sites that offer what appear to be freebies but most will require participation which usually includes purchasing something or ask for shipping costs. Neither of those constitutes free.

* Most offers do state comments like this: "Your free sample is on it's way, will arrive in approximately 8 - 12 weeks" so please be patient because most free samples take a while to come.
