We love freebies!

I have a confession : I have a love for free things! 

Free - the perfect price to pay for things. 

I always sign up for free samples : beauty, household, food & drink, even paint!
Yes, I've received free paint.

I was quite happy over the weekend when my P&G sample pack arrived.
Coupons and samples of shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent, fabric softener, and more ...

I got giddy when I received the Target Beauty Bags.

The little free things that excite me.

So yesterday I got quite excited when a big white envelope was stuffed in our mailbox.
YAY, finally!

My free lunchbag.

Since we eat a lot of lean cuisine meals (they make great lunches), I joined their rewards program.

Get free stuff for eating, sounds like my kinda rewards.

Anyway, you get codes from the meals, add them to your account online, and receive points to redeem for goodies. And from Jan-March, they have a bonus program to get a free lunch bag. Sweet!
So, I got us a free lunch bag, and I've been banking my points to use for something good (they are adding gift cards...). And it's a pretty roomy bag too. 

Here are a few of my favorite freebie/rewards sites:

P&G Brand Sampler

Scott Shared Values

Lean Cuisine Rewards

Target Sample Spot

Target Beauty Bag

As a bargain hunter, I love to find good deals for my family, and use coupons to save.
I also love free samples. Love them. LOVE THEM!!
Seriously.
I'm not going to show you my sample stash,
because it's a disorganized mess embarrassing.
But, I will request samples of most anything; hey, ya never know. 

So, I was super excited when Target posted their free beauty bag of samples for the winter. 

{This is the 3rd sample bag I've gotten from them this year}

This pack came with the usual booklet of coupons,
and a bunch of small sample packets, as well as a leopard print cosmetic bag.
Samples included:
 Jergens daily moisture lotion,
Pixi beauty primer,
Fekkai shea butter shampoo and conditioner,
Clear scalp and hair therapy shampoo and conditioner,
and
L`Oreal EverCreme 3 step shampoo, conditioner, and nourishing masque.

So, several shampoo samples.
Which, I like.
Whenever we travel, the samples go with us.
They are light weight and travel well,

once we've used them, they get thrown away,
and we get to try new things.
(Plus, I get to feel a bit pampered while away from home. Which is always nice.) 

And that is the winter samples bag.
