Free, Free, Free
I have been very, very frugal for over 9 years. Even though I have been disabled for several years, I want to help provide for our household — it makes me feel useful. So I started searching the internet for free things. The more I searched, the more I found. I decided to help others to get free stuff too, so I started a YahooGroup for freebie links. I have not had to buy the following things for almost 10 years: Shampoo /conditioner, deodorant and razors (I have a huge supply of all of these); feminine products; handheld battery operated fans; lotions (body, foot, and facial); diabetic meters (several different brands); laundry detergent; pledge wipes; journals with pens; t-shirts, magazines; books; greeting cards (holiday, birthday, anniversary, etc); Christmas ornaments; candles; American Indian blanket; wooden basket; panty-hose; underwear; pens; erasers; snacks; Wal-mart gift card; CVS gift card; L.E.D. flashlight; perfume; makeup; body spray: calendars; crafts supplies; yarn (lots of skeins); Audio CDs; Movies (DVDs and VHS); photo albums; candy; vitamins; food; toilet paper and a lot more. If I took a picture of everything that I’ve gotten for free it would cover my entire living room floor and go into the hallway!
Editors' Note: We've searched for Darcy's yahoo group and haven't been able to find it. But we have found MySavings.com, and after watching their deals and talking with the founder and their marketing director can safely say that they offer bonifide free deals with reputable companies who won't sell your information.
Give them a try and let us know what you think.
