FREAP CHAT ~ Everyone Welcome!

[It's A Happy Day]

I got a great freebie today! 26,yes that's 26 water bottles from USA Football!!!! I don't have any boys in my house,and we don't coach a team,but I am donating them to the YMCA. I was so excited to just see them! I didn't think I would really get them.

Wouldn't it have been hysterical to have gotten the box before he saw it and wrapped it and put it under the tree for Christmas with no tag "from".

I got my coupon for.....FREE CHOCOLATE today! From the Nestle Crunch thing...yummy....

I love freebies!

I got the water bottles about 3 weeks ago and because my son decided to play soccer not football I started handing them out at practice and didn't get rid of them until this past Tuesday! They're pretty small teams! Gave them to 3 different teams! They were soooo excited! What Fun!

I just noticed on the other thread that angiepangie boo'd baby! That means baby is really a live person...so I wish that they would come chat with us! After all the controversy it would be interesting to hear her/his point of view!

Do you know if that was the Home Made Simple newsletter giveaway?




I don't think the sample came from the Home Made Simple newletter. I think it may have come from a site where I requested a cleaner for stainless steel.

After a virtual freebie drought-- this week has been much better.
Monday-- received Sunsilk hair product foil packets + coupons
Wed-- received L'oreal hair product foil packets
Thursday-- Big day-- filled the mailbox
Aquafresh advanced toothpaste (walmart)
Nature Made Fish Oil supplement (walmart)
Kotex Ultra thins +coupon
Clean & Clear Morning burst (from a long time ago)

So it appears the drought is over. Just in time for a trip next weekend. Great freebies to take with me. I have been saving my coffee freebies (Mr. Coffee and Dunkin Donuts) for the trip. Hoping the latest Folgers sample will come before I leave.

Only wish the trip was to WDW.

Hey all. Just wondering if there are any of you that did this, mailed it in the first week or so, and haven't received it yet? The reason I ask is b/c I mailed mine in right away, and have yet to receive it, and on a few other sites, it seems like everyone else received theirs last week!

Haven't got mine yet either. I sent out a bunch of stuff on the same day and that's the only thing I haven't got. But I only sent mine out a few weeks ago (3 weeks I think...it was before the cutoff I know).

I still havent received my Chadwicks Jacket. I did get the shirt I ordered but not the jacket. Anyone else still waiting on theirs?

"What do you put??

in some of these forms for freebies where it asks for Company Name and your Title? "


If the site requires a Company Name and Title - unless it is appropriate for my "company", I do not request the sample. Some samples are for certain avenues or professions only and if we abuse the sites, disboards can get in trouble ....

I figure I receive plenty of wonderful samples without asking for those I cannot use or do not deserve.

Hey Maggie-
About the homescan panel- it seems like it might take a looong time to save up for some of the better rewards.. BUT- it only takes me a few minutes to scan my purchases, so I figure it is about as rewarding as mycokerewards! Since I am on dial up (nothing better out here! I am dreaming of a high speed connection.....) it takes me forever to key in codes at mycokerewards!

My pinecone hasn't picked up- I have 2 household questions in my inbox. Do you think it might have something to do with turning 25- now I am in a new "bracket"??? hmm.... I sure could use some extra $$ in paypal to buy DH's Donald Duck Costume! It's $70!

I did the Homescan Panel for two years and ended up with a set of nice red baking dishes, a Little Tykes golf set and a t-ball set. Not great after all of the time, but if someone wins the $ or prizes then it would have really been worth it. I quit doing it because I shop a lot at Sams and I had to manually enter the prices and it got to be a big hassle.

Just a thought:
Help me understand this one, several weeks ago (late June) we asked for and received a place to “chat” and yet folks still use the “sample” site for chatting – calling it chit chat but there are times I spend 20 minutes (and I do not have 20 minutes to spare) reading chit chat. I choose three pages at random to see how much “chatting” was occurring; the first page I looked at had 16 postings, 8 of which were only chit-chatting – no sample site posting, the 2nd page had 15 postings – 11 of which were chit-chat only, and the 3rd page was the worst. It had 15 postings - 14 of which were just chit chat. Do not get me wrong, I love chit-chat – but not in a site where we agreed some months back the site should be used to post sample sites. Can you see why I am frustrated? I thought we had agreed in June that a way to avoid this problem was to have a separate site to chat (the Freap Chat site). Since I do have a limited time issue, I guess I just will have to “visit” here in Freaps Chat when I wish to converse with my Freap friends and not even open the Freebie site. I will utilize the other sample site for product samples since it does not have the chatting component. I am sorry I must restrict myself from the Disbroads Freebie site; for it was my space to go and unwind.

Hopefully my thoughts will not bring out the viciousness in some folks, I have noticed a rather “borderline personality disorder” syndrome occurring lately (nice one minute, screaming at you the next). How sad….

8 chats out of 16 postings on the page
11 chats out of 15 postings on the page
14 chats out of 15 postings on the page

Hey guys, don't know if you remember me - my dh was hit by a car while cycling last June...

Well it turned out it might be a blessing in disguise. When they did the CAT scan after the accident - they found an anomele on his thyriod. He had prostate cancer 3 years ago (at 42 years old - 85% imvolved - had a prostectamy - guys get checked), they did 5 biopsies on his thyriod and they have all come back inconclusive - so more test in the next week, they think there is a good chance that it is cancer.

So who knew that getting hit would be a "good" thing... Eeekkk

OK - I'll bite what is being "booed"?
