Free Fry-Day!

Tomorrow from 2pm until 4pm Chick-fil-a is handing out free fries! I'm excited! they are the criss cross kind so they are extra special :) anyway, just another little freebie to make your "Fry-day" great!

FHE for free! (For the kids at least)

Kids eat free at Chili's every Monday! My little girl just turned 1 and I actually have to order real food for her when we go out to eat! So naturally, I love it when it's free! So take the whole Fam, the more kids you have, the more free food you get.

Say "Hello" to free stuff!

Free cell phones!!!!!!!!!! Go to your local T-mobile, sign up for a 2 yr contract or if you are eligable for an upgrade, you can get a free phone! Not just the lame free phone that is always free under these circumstances, but every phone... even smart phones! Sweet huh!?
So go check it out! ONLY AVAILABLE TODAY AND TOMORRW (FEB 11 & 12)

A little Fruity :)

Now I know that this is a little out of season for us Utahns, but I wanted to blog about it as soon as I found out about it!
FREE FRUIT! We all love fresh fruit and it is so healthy for us! But in the grocery store, these sweet treats can really add up. So how do we get it for free!

EASY

neighborhoodfruit.com

This website is awesome! You create a log-in, enter your region and how far you are willing to go get your free fruit. And wah-lah, they list off the places that are giving away their fruit! These are usually people who have fruit trees in their yards and have more than they can handle, or farms that have extras or the fruit might have small cosmetic flaws.

So stop buying your fruit at the grocery store! Get it free and get it straight from the tree/bush/whatever!

(Obviously, it is February and you may not be able to find too much fruit right now. But as it warms up, you'd be surprised how much free fruit you get. And get a lot! Learn to can and make jam. They make great gifts and, best of all, FREE)

"They Say it's Your Birthday..."

So yesterday was my birthday. If you missed it, don't worry, gifts and all major credit cards still accepted. Anyway, I decided to see if the fact that it was my birthday would get me anything free. Well, IT DID! Of course we got a free dessert where we went to dinner, but everyone does that. Before I went to work, I stopped into a cupcake place. I simply told them that it was my birthday and asked if they did a "happy birthday cupcake." They told me that they haven't really done that before, but they ended up giving me one anyway! Cool huh?! I would have stopped at more places, but I was running late for work. So when your birthday rolls around, milk it! Go to flower shops and ask if they do a "happy birthday rose" or go to a bakery and do what I did. If they say no, who cares! But a lot of places usually want to be nice and they'll hook you up!

Do you need new glasses? Do your kids need glasses?
Well now is the time to get them. Standard Optical is celebrating 100 years of business. They are offering $100 off any pair of glasses. But, as usual, we want free! Luckily, Standard Optical will give you a free pair of glasses if the frames you select are worth $100 or less. So go into your local Standard Optical ( this offer is not available online) and check out their glasses. You may just walk out with a $100 product for free!!!!!!!!!!!!

mint.com!

I know that it's a lot of people's new years resolution are to save money or start a budget (or things like that.) Well this is perfect! mint.com is a website that works as a free personal financial planner. First go and create an account (It's free, duh!) you enter in all your different bank accounts, assets, credit cards, etc. Then Whah Lah! It tracks your spending, helps you organize your money, allows you to see all of your accounts at once even if they are at different banks, it organizes your assets and liabilities, it even organizes your spending into a pie chart so you can see how much of your money is going where. It's awesome! My husband and I just set our account up. He is really excited because he was an economics major and he is really interested in finance. This free program makes it so easy for him to track everything and also see what our assets and liabilities are so we can see what we can afford to invest in and things like that. GO check it out!

Go check it out!

Back on track!

OK I'm getting back on track and I'm going to post at least every other day, I promise. So here is today's freebie.....
Craigslist!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basically all I did was go to saltlakecity.craigslist.org
I left the search box empty and in the "in:" box I put "free stuff"
It pulled up all this stuff that people are giving away for free!
As we all know, one man's trash is another man's treasure.
But it's not all junk that no one wants. There were quite a few ads for packing boxes and packaging paper. If you've ever moved, you know how great this stuff is and how expensive and annoying to it is to buy it!
Other ads were for foosball tables, christmas trees, and more. Most people just want you to come pick it up. So grab a friend and a truck and go get this free stuff that these people were gonna give to the DI anyway!

Freebie of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aloha Baby!!!!!!!! We just booked our flight for our FREE trip to Hawaii! Yes your read me right, FREE TRIP TO HAWAII! Now I know that most of you are thinking that this is something you have to win the "Showcase Showdown" on the Price is Right to be able to get. But, NO! All you have to do is take advantage of rewards points on credit cards. Now, beware.... I am NOT saying that you need to rack up huge credit card debt to do this. Actually, we did the exact opposite. We got a rewards credit card that didn't have fees so that it really is FREE. Then we decided that our goal was to earn enough points to take a trip to Hawaii since neither of us had been there. We ALAWAYS pay off our credit cards every month, so we didn't have to worry about paying interest or getting fees. And....Whah-lah! FREE TRIP TO HAWAII! Our flight and accomodations are taken care of! So if you have will power and can pay your credit card off every month, you should do this. We have had the card less than a year and we've already got enough points. We just put all our purchases on it like groceries, gas etc. and pay it off at the end of the month. We have a US Bank Visa Flex Rewards Card, so I know that one works great! But if you prefer a different bank or whatever, go ask. Just make sure you know about any annual fees or loop holes. So if you want to avoid any weird surprises, just get the same kind of card we use and have fun on your trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free Snowmobiling!

TAKE A FRIEND SNOWMOBILING DAY!
This is an annual event put on by At Your Leisure.

Saturday, January 15th (tomorrow) all day at the Monte Cristo Parking lot near Huntsville, UT.

They will have free food, and free snow mobile rides for everyone who comes! This is an awesome activity for the family if you are looking for something to do outdoors in the winter. So get out of the house, dress warm, and take advantage of free food and snowmobile rides! If you wanted to rent a snowmobile for a day, it would cost close to $200. Of course, you won't get to ride it all day cuz there are other people :) But if you are like me, and never been snow mobiling, this is perfect. I can take a couple of little rides and see if I like it. Then later I can decide if I'd be willing to spend the money to rent one in the future.

Ok let's keep this simple. Go to Wells Fargo and open a new account (I opened a savings account for my little girl) and recieve this stuffed pony. Now I know for normal adults, this pony might seem like a lame incentive to open an account. But my husband is obsessed with finding a fun stuffed animal for my littl girl for Christmas cuz the only stuffed animal she has is a black Halloween cat. But we were looking at the store and they are like $15 or $20. Forget that! I can get a stuffed horse for free! I know that the Wells Fargo on Center Street and Main in Logan is running this promotion for sure, but I'm not sure it's store wide.

Now for the cookies....Free Papa Murphy's cookie dough!

If you have a child that is learning to read or that you read to, this is perfect. Go to readtoday.com

you get free cookie dough just for signing up! Read today is a free service that helps track your child's reading and keeps you on track so that you read as a family on a daily basis. So pretty sweet! (literally)

So here's what you do.... send him here:

Free Cash Money!

Sorry I've been checked out during the Thanksgiving break. We left home early to beat the "blizzard."
Anyway, today's freebie is the best cuz it's free money! A lot of banks offer incentives to open accounts. Of course you always need to check the stipulations-- make sure there are no hidden fees, etc. So I've found a few where you can get hundreds (literally) of dollars just by opening a bank account without having to do much work.
First: US Bank- The logan branch is giving away $75 for opening a checking account. This deal lasts til Saturday. So hurry in!!!!!!!
What you have to do: Go open an account, put $75 into it. Then spend it! US Bank will then put $75 back into your account. So basically they are reimbursing you. You need to keep the account open for 6 months.
How to get the most out of it: Go in with your husband and open 2 accounts. There is $150 that you didn't have before!!!!!

Second: Chase-- Look for the advertisement in the mail. We get one at least once a month. They have a deal where you can open an account and get $100! (pretty sweet!)
What you have to do: Open an account, use your debit card 5 times a month or set your direct deposit to that account.
How to get the most out of it: Put $1500 in the account and leave it there for 6 months. You don't have to do anything with direct deposit or a debit card this way. You get your $100 and that is a pretty good return for $1500 in this economy

If at first you don't Succeed, try, try again

This last weekend I feel like I have participated in more raffles than I have in the last 2 years!I went to Sugar and Spice for their "Super Slumber Party sale" and held out until the very end in hopes of winning a gift basket full of home decor goodies or a $100 gift card to the store. But no luck (aside from the free tree ornament, free wassail, and free christmas chocolates that I shoved in my purse as an emergency chocolate stash-- that I ate this afternoon)

Then I went to Anderson Plant and Seed where they have awesome Christmas trees and decor. They have a give away every year where they, along with other local businesses, raffle off prizes that are worth hundreds of dollars! I put my raffle ticket in to win a fully lit and decorated Christmas tree worth $1500. The lady standing right next to me won :( she had a baby around my little girl's age who was getting pretty fussy when he saw that my little girl had a bottle and he didn't. When the lady won I was like "you can have to bottle! We'll trade!" That plan didn't work.

BUT when I took my husband to The Kutting Egde for his FREE man treatment I entered a drawing for some products and............. I WON! They called me today and told me that I won a bunch of men's hair care products! Sweet!

The products are Eufora so they are really nice and they totalled about $65. But I got them free!

Y'know, a lot of times people skip out on raffles and stuff like that cuz they say "I never win those things." But you have just as good a chance as anyone else in the box, so you might as well try. You may just walk away with something great!

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice!

Sugar and Spice is a Home Decor Store here in Logan. It has super cute stuff for the holidays as you can see :)
Tonight they are doing a "Super Slumber Party Sale" from 6pm til 8pm. Show up wearing your Pajamas and you'll get something FREE! If you don't wear your pj's, you can still get 25% off.

Now, I know that some people will feel silly wearing their pajamas to a store, but not me! I'll still be wearing make-up and have my hair done, not like I just woke up and Seriously who am I gonna see there? And if I get something free, it's all worth it!

Sugar and Spice is located at the South End of Logan next to Sears in the Shopping Center with Big 5. See you there in your sleep wear! :)
