Snail Mail Sunday

Here are all the free items I received in the mail this past week.  This year I am not going to seek every single freebie that is out there, instead I am going to try to get freebies that I or someone in my family would use or full size products.  For example, I would want trial/travel size items, but not the tiny sample they send on a cardboard.

  • Magazines-OK!, and Watch!
  • Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner Travel Size-These are perfect for when we go on an overnight trip. It also came with a $2 coupon off any Pantene product.
  • Huggies Sample Pack-A newborn diaper, and an 8-pack of wipes. There was also a $1.50 Huggies coupon for Target.
  • Grizzly 18” Cooking Oar-Grizzly Snuff was giving out these huge gigantic cooking oars.

It was a pretty good week for freebies.  I got an OK! magazine, but gave it away before I could get a picture, and as far as the Watch magazine I looked through it and put it in the recycle pile.  When I got the box for the oar, B could not even begin to guess what could be in a long skinny box from a company who makes chew.  When I opened the package up and showed it to B and S, S said I know what that is.  “It’s like the spoon the popcorn guy at the Farmer’s Market uses.”  He was totally right. I’m not sure what we are going to do with the oar, but I think we can come up with something creative.  The diaper is unfortunately too small for P, but the wipes are awesome to stuff in my purse.  The travel size shampoo and conditioner will come in handy.  This week nothing will go in the giveaway box to my local breadbasket donations.

    I still love this post of yours and its on my want to does for next year. I hope that if I start it early enough in the year then I will stick with it 😉 At least that is my plan. LOL I get the Watch magazine too. No idea when I signed up for that but it comes and has for years. I do the same as you and flip through it and then I usually pass it along to my friend I pass all my EW magazines too. She for some reason doesn’t get them in her mail. I think almost all of my friends do though even the ones who don’t sign up for so many freebies so its really weird.

Disclaimer: I have never claimed to be any great writer. So any mistakes that are made are my fault. Sometimes I mix up names B, S, and P, but I think you can figure out who I am talking about. If you find any grammatical errors just fix it in your mind so it sounds right.
