If there's one thing that brightens my day, it's getting something free in the mail. Whether it's a sample of laundry detergent, a little bag of food for the dog/cats to try, or a trial-sized bottle of the latest shampoo, sending off for freebies makes my trip to the mailbox in the afternoons an adventure. (What can I say, I'm easily entertained! ) Anyway, I thought it would be cool to share the love and post some links to stuff that my fellow do-it-yourself haunters might find of interest and make going through the mail a more gratifying experience.

I'm hesitant giving out personal information and my e-mail they ask for, because it may lead to more spam.

These days, I think that just having a pulse will lead to getting more spam. I totally understand your concern and there's an easy way to get around this. I (and most other people who frequently request samples or other information online) have an e-mail address dedicated to nothing but giving out when I don't want to give out my real e-mail address. All the spam goes there and I never have a spam problem with my official e-mail address that I only give out to a few trusted sources. There are numerous places to get free e-mail addresses (Yahoo! is one that comes to mind).

Thanks grapegrl. I do freebies all the time on line for cat and dog food samples and other small items. As for getting spam in your mail from doing these online freebies, I use a seperate email address to monitor the emails that come from doing them. It hasn't been a problem and I've been cruising the freebie sites for about 9 years now.

Yeah, besides my own personal home email, I have a Yahoo and Hotmail addy set up for precisely the reasons GG states.
