Like, in Seventeen and Cosmogirl and stuff, they have tons of sweepstakes for free stuff. Did any of you ever win something? And what did it take to win it?

Who said there’s no such thing as a free lunch? The truth is, there are still some places in this world where you can get truly free stuff, without working hard or paying anything.

One of these sources of free items is test drive offers. Did you know that you could go into a car dealership, test drive a car, and they would mail you something free? Everything from a steak dinner for two to a $100 gift certificate to an upscale kitchen supply store.

And yes, it would be totally free, costing you only a little amount of your time. Heck, sometimes you wouldn’t even have to test drive the car!

Sound too good to be true? Well, test drive offers really exist, but they do take a little leg work before you get started.

For instance, you cannot simply go into a car dealership at random and announce, “I’m here for the goodies! What are you going to give me today?” Test drive offers must be sent to you in the mail.

Once you are placed on the appropriate mailing list for the various auto manufacturers that offer test drive incentives, it is just a matter of checking you email or snail mail box to find the offers. Then, with offer in hand, you visit the car dealership that is participating in the offer.

At the dealership, make sure to announce that you are not going to be purchasing a vehicle today, but got the offer in the mail and decided to check it out. This way the dealer assigned to you does not waste an undo amount of his time on you as a hot prospect, but is still available to answer questions you may have about the vehicle in question.

Most of the time, with this approach, the dealer will ask you if you really want to drive the car, and will not take up your time, or his, if you do not. After the test drive, or lack thereof, the dealer will sign your incentive which you will then mail into the company.

In six to eight weeks, the company will either mail or email you your reward. The value of these rewards vary, but on average they are around $50 each. Occasionally, they are as high as $100, or as low as $25.

Over the years, I have gotten thousands of dollars worth of freebies from these offers. Countless prepaid American Express or VISA/MasterCard gift cards, several gift certificates to various merchants, and all kinds of interesting incentives like movie cash and dinners at local restaurants.

I like doing test drive incentives. They are a fun, occasional hobby. Sometimes I save up my rewards and use them for gifts for my extended family.

We regularly buy new vehicles, and I always return to the dealers who treated me well when I had an incentive in my hand, as opposed to those who felt that I was a waste of their time. This is what the companies intend when they put out these incentives; I am more than happy to oblige them.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you had enough cash for that shiny new mp3 player? You could load it with all your new and old music. It would be great to take with you on runs or walks. You could hook it to your stereo and have your favorite music blasting through your house.

Unfortunately, these days, spending money on luxuries is not in the plan for most of us. What if you could get it for free, though? Well, believe it or not, that is possible. If you have a computer and an Internet connection, there are a bunch of websites that allow you to get completely free stuff. You can get samples. You can get free magazines. You can even earn points toward bigger and cooler stuff.

Many manufactures and stores will give you free stuff, in the form of samples. Sometimes, the samples are given to you, just because you ask. Sometimes, you have to fill out a survey and give your opinion. Either way, you send no money and get free stuff.

There’s free stuff for your computer, too. You can get screen savers, games, and other software all for free. You must be careful, here, though. Some of these will come with “extra” software that can harm your computer – like spyware or virus’. If in doubt, don’t download something until you talk to your computer professional. He can tell you if something is safe.

If you can’t find any free stuff that’s to your liking, you can look for ways to get discounts on items you do want. Just go to your favorite search engine and enter the item you want and the word “coupon” or “discount”. For many items, you might be able to find coupons, discount codes, or rebates on just the thing you’re looking to get.

Some sites will say they are giving you free stuff, but they really aren’t. Be wary of any site that says, “participation required”. Some sites will offer you a “free” computer or “free” gift card. But, they really aren’t free. You’ll need to fill out trial offers or make purchases from their sponsors to get credit toward the “free” item. Chances are, you’ll end up paying more than the item is worth.

Some retailers have free samples you can get just by going to their web site. Walmart is a great example of this. They generally give away free samples of household items or personal items or food. My wife and I get free items from them, all the time. It’s a lot of fun. Sure, we’ve never gotten a free iPod, or computer, or any other big ticket item. However, we’ve been able to integrate what we get in to our daily living. This means that we might get something for free that we would have bought, under other circumstances. This means we spend less and have more money for other things.

Sometimes, manufacturers will also give away free stuff. The best way that I’ve found to uncover these freebies is to watch forums where other people post what they have discovered. If you search for “freebies forum” you’ll probably be able to find a few.

These are just a few ways that you can find some free stuff on the Internet. You may score something you’ve always wanted. You may get something that you just needed. Either way, with some diligent searching, you can get new “presents” in your mailbox over and over and over. Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?

Jennifer Gibbs asked:




A sure way to double the joys of parenthood is to give birth to twins! You’ll have twice the smiles, goos & coos, giggles, and firsts (first words, first steps, first burps….) But for many soon-to-be parents of twins, once the excitement wears off, the math sets in….

Suddenly you find yourself with twice the dirty diapers, twice the mouths to feed in the middle of the night, twice the formula to buy. Then, there are twice the outfits and booties to get. You’ll need two cribs, playpens, baby swings…..The next thing you know, double the fun has turned into triple the financial stress.

But before you begin pulling out your hair and pawning the family keepsakes, read on. Many companies out there realize that oftentimes, parents of twins need an extra break. They offer coupons, freebies, discounts and many other incentives.

Cashing in on Free Stuff for Twins

Before you can cash in, you’ll need to do a little paperwork. However, I’m sure you’ll agree that a few moments of your time will certainly pay off. To receive any of the six free reward program incentives below you’ll need to provide each company with the following:

• A letter stating that you’ve just had twins. One of the easiest ways to do this is to create a generic form letter on your computer. Print out six copies of it, and keep it saved, since you’ll more than likely come across other offers that will also require a letter.

• Copies of your children’s birth certificates. While at a later point, you may be required to provide the company with a certified copy, at this point I’d only recommend that you send an unofficial copy. Or, to save yourself time and stamps, you can try to call or email the companies.

Once you’ve got this information together, you’re ready to get started. Here are just a few of the companies out there who are willing to help you get free stuff for twins:
