FREAP CHAT ~ Everyone Welcome!

[kid-at-heart]

Okay, all you freaps.... BE HONEST!!!! How many of you went and checked out the Snopes details on the Sears ad? How many of you also emailed your address book with a "check this out?"

I've gotta say I never heard that one I remember poring through the Christmas Catalog every year with my siblings circling the items we wanted from Santa that year....


never circled that one

I remember that catalog, my sister had one and we never could figure out if it was "real" or not. I wonder if she saved the catalog...

I must live in a bubble cause I had never heard any of that Snopes stuff! I had to go look since everyone was talking about it....how hysterical! I'm cracking up

I LOVE snopes! Anytime I get one of "those" emails that states some lost cause or warning I generally will pull up Snopes and investigate if it is true or not before forwarding it to my friends & family.

Ok- went on Snopes and found it.

What did people do? Look at the pic with a magnifying glass! Who has the time?!

Is anyone else having trouble with the chat thread freezing up for a few seconds off and on while trying to scroll down the page? It has been doing this for a week or so at least! It doesn't happen on any other sight or thread that I go to except this one? It's driving me crazy...not far of a drive, but aggravating nonetheless!

This is the sight...look for celebration kits...don't know if they're still available or not...good luck! I posted it originally a while back, but don't remember when.

Thank you! I was able to sign up for this one! Hopefully it will come!

Guess what.....I got it today. The flashlight is AWESOME!!!

BTW, I also went to snopes and checked it out. I don't remember this ad, but I do remember many many days laying on the living room floor circling things that Santa could bring. Ahh innocence, and now prevertion....times have changed.

I passed out the water bottles at my sons practice tonight! You'd have thought I was SUPER MOM! What a great freebie that was...even the parents wanted some! I love freebies, but it's sure fun to get to share them, too!

I got the Pravda vodka envelope today (with the $5 rebate). Has any one priced the sample kit described in the envelope? Does any one know how much it runs? TIA

I'm kind of new to the whole signing up for freebies thing and set up a separate email account for them now. This came in that email box. There may have been a few contests, but I don't remember what they were. Plus they sent me two of the same messages back to back.

I also just received my package from Overstock.com, the pearl necklace for free just pay shipping.....well my necklace was in peices when it arrived. I chatted with a customer service guy tonight and they are sending a new one and are paying to send the old one back. Sure is costing them a bundle on these

I think I've "won" this a couple of times this year. This along with the Nigerian one.. Funny how you can win lotteries that you didn't even enter! LOL

 

[Jennifer823]

Hey guys.. anyone hear from Baby? Has she posted any freebies this week?

 

[Irin997]

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I got the Tapena skewer sticks (they're pretty nice and will come in handy for my next camping trip) and the Kellogg's wrist band...although it wasn't the orange rubber wrist band it was a sweat band. Either way, my daughter loves it! All that matters!

Thank you all
I definitely am not responding to them. There is no way that this is legit. Does anyone know if there is a place on line I can report this scam to. Maybe the internet police could respond to their email. It's really annoying that they have my freap email address but at least it's not my real one.
