My Mailbox Was Bursting With All of This…

I’ve been on vacation for a week visiting my hubby’s family in Texas and I came home to a plethora of freebies. In fact, I felt like it was Christmas. I was giddy… ask my hubby. It just makes me so stinkin’ happy to know my mailbox was taken over by freebies and not the oh so unappealing bills!

Here’s a quick round-up of some of the great freebies I received:

(Please note: Most of these will not be available anymore.)

*FREE All-Bran promise pack
It not ONLY Came with 2 small packages of cereal, but also high value coupons and even an eye shade!

*A FREE 2 oz bag of Shirley J Universal Sauce

*FREE sample of Stayfree Thermo Control + coupon

*Coupon for FREE DiGiorno Deep Dish pizza

*3 FREE Crystal Light Pure Fitness drink mix packets courtesy of Vocalpoint
Plus, they sent three $2/1 Crystal Light Pure fitness Drink Mix coupons.These are priced less than $2 at Walmart and Target, so three for FREE after these coupons! Yay!

*FREE Emergen-C Recipe Kit and with three samples of Emergen-C drink mix

*FREE Palmer’s Cocoa butter Formula skin therapy oil sample

*Parents Magazine with 20% off Amazon.com diapers coupon inside
I just used this coupon to score some VERY inexpensive Huggies Pull-Ups!

Now, why again are freebies not worth signing up for?! 😉

    Do you get the Highlights Magazine for free too and if so where did you find a free subscription??

    • Collin

      I did get Highlights for free by purchasing it on Amazon with my gift card I had earned through Swagbucks! I LOVE Highlights magazine. I read it as a kid and still like looking through it. My 8 year old is always saying… “Mom, Can I have my magazine back?” 😉

      • SarahandJohn

        I just got a the Joy Bauer cookbook for FREE with 3 of my swagbuck amazon giftcards! Now I’m back down to only 100 swagbucks;(

      • Joy

        We get these free, too thanks to Grandma. 🙂 She bought the boys mag subs for Xmas last year. We get this one, National Geo for Kids and Ranger Rick. The boys also get the free Lego magazine as well.

    • kati

      I scored some girls Levi jeans, some girls Fang tops (sooo cute), and books for myself free with my Swagbucks on Amazon. Woohoo. Cant wait till it comes

  2. Kay

    The Commissary has the Crystal Light Pure Fitness for less than a $1.51 😉

    Reaping In Abundance,

    • Collin

      Awesome! Thanks for the tip. Now I know where to use my coupons! 🙂

    • SarahandJohn

      yes thank you i was wondering if they had them.:)

  3. Skaterboiz

    Monday was my freebies landslide, I guess I am finally getting more . I didnt know the Crystal LIgt was so cheap at Walmart and the eyeshade form Allbran kinda threw me, was it for blind taste testing?

    • karen

      I received my all bran buds yesterday and tried them with greek yogurt . Yummy!

    • Collin

      I know… I don’t really understand what the eye shade has to do with All Bran cereal. Any ideas?!

      • LisaM

        i was wondering that too,,

  4. fran

    I do know how exciting it is to get freebies in the mail. Isn’t that a cute cardboard container that the Crystal came in? I actually kept it. I thought it would be good for clips or rubber bands. Vocalpoint has the neatest packaging. I got free Crystal Light with the coupons.

    • Linda Hahn

      I kept the container too! I put my daughter’s markers in it!!

      • fran

        I know, right? Collin needs to do a post on what everyone did with their container 🙂
        How about straws?

    • anne

      they do have really cute packaging! my pampers dry max samples came in a really cute cardboard purse/clutch like package

      • fran

        I still have that too. I’m a real pack rat. I thought that would be cute to use for drug store coupons.

    • Melissa

      I kept it and put more single drink mixes in with it. Looks nicer than the box they come in sitting on my counter.

      • LisaM

        i kept it too, will use it for storage container……….

    • Sheila

      I agree, it is so cute! I put all the single drink mix packets in there that were cluttering my pantry shelves. 🙂

    • missdeally

      they do have the best packaging. did you get the pampers cruisers sample from vocal point. that purse was so cute i didn’t want to throw it away. i had to keep it just to show friends.

  5. MichelleA

    I had an AWESOME freebie from something like “Que Rica Vida” today! It was a full size Hamburger Helper and a sample of fiber one cereal with a coupon for 1.00/2 tostinos pizza rolls. Then I got my Allbran sample too!! I was stoked! 😀

    • gloria

      I signed up for that 2 months ago I hope I get something soon.

    • Kristi G.

      When I got my “Que Vida Rica” I had a granola bar, a package of bisquick, small box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch and a coupon for yogurt. My husband said, “What did you order now?” because of the spanish writing. Hey~it was free! 🙂

      • MichelleA

        woohoo… my que rica vida package at home (other was at my work lol) had bisquick, granola bar, and cinnamon toast crunch and a coupon for .25/1 yogurt. woot woot!! I also got my allbran sample here, along with a free first aid kit from a local hospital. Jackpot!! 😉

    • Kim

      Got mine yesterday…I sign up for so many freebies, I couldn’t remember what I had signed up for in Spanish! (that I don’t speak) 🙂

      • Marquisha

        I also got the hamburger helper and the cereal, no coupon though, I better re-check the box!

  6. anne

    I also scored a really awesome deal on diapers with the 20% off amazon coupon that was in my Parents magazine yesterday. I got a 156 count package of Pampers and after the coupon, doing the Subscribe & Save, and using Amazon e-gift card credits I had I only paid $0.52!! And they will arrive tomorrow after only ordering them last night!

  7. Stephanie

    I got my Famous Footwear order and 2 free samples of Dove shampoo and conditioner!!!

  8. rachael

    Colin, Do you know the website where you get all of those free offers? There was teenhighway, and there was “my” something. I had the link and used it frequently as a blogger. Then my computer crashed andI can’t get back there. Please email me or post it. i can’t find it anymore and it was a HUGE help having that link! Thanks!

    I love coming home to a full mailbox. It also makes me feel giddy, when I open up my box, and all kinds of things pour out. I got some great things over the 2 weeks I was in Europe- cat food, a pair of underwear, Eucerin lotion, skin therapy oil, Aveeno shampoo and conditioner, Office Depot Coupons, Advanced White toothpaste, a Zantac pill, my CVS extra care card, some body wash, a Starbucks Via packet, Nivea lotion, Oxi clean laundry detergent, the Crystal Light, my Red Gold Tomatoes reusable bag, bandaids, and Pampers coupons. It was like Christmas! It’s a good thing I had my cat-sitter bring in my mail. 🙂

    Hi Collin,

    Got my Right at Home box with Ziploc bags, Scrubbin’ Bubbles Gel, wipes for the furniture, Living Magazine, my All You (subscr. from cousin), free bananas coupon,

    • fran

      I got the Right@Home giveaway, too!

    • Liz

      I also got the Right @ Home box! It had a box of 25 ziploc bags, scrubbing bubbles toilet get, and pledge wipes!

      • missdeally

        good just to know people actually get those right at home kits. it seems like i never win. lol.

        • Craig

          Score! I got this box of goodies from Right at Home too! How cool is that?. Just tried the Dove free shampoo samples tonight. Why? cuz they were free!

          • Marquisha

            I got the Right at home Also! My mailbox has been jumping! I know the mailman is wondering what in the world is going on here!

  11. Mrs.Hall

    I’m getting a bit bummed lately…I do get goodies in my mail. But its like a coupon here..nothing for a week..then a sample..then nothing for 3 days..then another coupon. It does get me to do a happy dance because hey! WE LOVE FREEBIES RIGHT!?

    But my downside is that I request things on a daily daily daily basis..and half the stuff never comes. Does anyone else have this problem? I should write down everything I request, when, and when its to arrive just so I can remember everything. I guess its a hit and miss type thing..but I do get excited when something is on its way and bummed when it never shows up.

    On a good note..I went to Luvs website just to see if there was any new offers or anything. I ended up updating my profile as I have another bundle due in September and to my surprise…one of those cardboard coupons with 2-$2.50 off 1 bag of diapers came in the mail. Then..today I was hoping for another goodie and there was another cardboard coupon for the same 2-$2.50 off Luvs diapers again! I wish Target would shoot out a Target web Coupon to match with it 🙂 But seeing Walmart has them for like $6.97 right now, $4.47 is pretty good deal for me to stock up on! 🙂

    • gloria

      I right every sample I order and when it comes in the mail I dated and highlighted.

    • Hollie

      I got the same Luvs coupons. I loaded a $1 coupon on my Dillon’s card. The only pack they carry is $10.99. My daughter wears size 3 diapers so the pack had 60 diapers in it. Not a bad price for that big of a bag. I’ve never bought diapers at a grocery store before because they’re usually very high but I’ve noticed here lately that Dillon’s has some really good sales on diapers and wipes. About a month ago I was able to stock up on Huggies diapers and wipes for like $4/bag. Here lately I’ve been able to get alot of stuff free or close to it by pairing up the card coupons with paper ones. Like today I got 2 free right guard deoderants!

  12. Lindy

    I too returned from vacation last week with a FULL mailbox of freebies & coupons! THANKS Collin, for listing the links, I somehow missed the new Stayfree sample, since it is still available, I requested it!

  13. Carol

    Isn’t it exciting when you get a mailbox full of goodies. I am so spoiled now that I get bumed out too when I only have one thing in there – like today I just had a sample of Boscia Green Tea Blotting Linens. If only I coulda done this when the kids were small.

  14. Dianne

    Got my Right at Home pkg today with three things inside…gotta love this!

  15. katherine j

    i live in chunchula al and i went to use my free digiorno coupons they said it was no good that it was fraud and they have a book and could show me that the people have a reward for anyone that knew who was making them . i told them i did not print it it came in the mail . i just did not get the pizza did not want to argue

    • Mrs.Hall

      Thats not good! Its a totally legit coupon. Was it just the cashier? Or did the manager say the same thing? Thats just really weird that they said no. My Walmart doesn’t have this product. But my Target does. But only in cheese 🙁 oh well..but my daughter loves them anyway.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      it was also a manager that told me that i kept the coupon

      • Hollie

        I used mine at my local walmart with no problem. They only had pepperoni and cheese but hey you can’t argue with something that’s free!

        • Marquisha

          I had that problem at Target, but I told them to follow the directions on the coupon and use a coin to scratch the paper to authenticate it. Of course, it worked, so they forced the coupon.

  16. Jessica K

    The Crystal Light was priced to give a .50 overage at my Commissary!

  17. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Has anyone found the DiGiorno pizza anywhere? I’ve looked at Walmart, Target, and Kroger and none of them have any.

  18. Lpmousse

    I’ve got many shampoo and conditioner stories My mom is coming to visit me in a couple of weeks, and has dry hair and scalp. I have enough samples of moisturizing shampoos and conditioners that I encouraged her not to bring her own- just use my samples. She was happy to oblige.

    Then tonight, I was chatting with my cat-sitter for while I’m away on vacation, and she said she was going to color her hair tonight. I thought to myself “She’ll insist that I not give her anything for looking in on my cats, but I want to give her something.” Then it struck me- the other day, I got a full size color treatment Pantene shampoo and conditioner in the mail from some salon in NY. I don’t even remember ordering it. So I ran over to her apartment with them in tow, and gave them to her. She almost said no, until I convinced her that I don’t color my hair and she does, so she can tell me how it works. 🙂 She took them. Hooray for gifting samples and things we get on sale!

  19. marcia

    I got the free shampoo and conditioner today! that was all but i was excited! its the first FULLSIZE “sample” I’ve gotten 🙂

  20. Olivia

    I also got the right @ home giveaway today with the 3 products. My hubby was sort of impressed to see I won a small giveaway!

    Glad to see it came with some ziploc storage bags…been needing those. Those ought to hold us over till I am able to go to the store soon!

    Thanks so much for all that you do Collin! 🙂

  21. Kristin

  23. Nora
