List things that are FREE FREE... FREE w/ no strings attached
 

Ok, you know how they give you free this and free that, for example magazines, you get a free magazine for 30 days, then after 30 days all you have to do is call this number and unsubscribe or else they will keep sending them to you and charge you an arm and a leg.

That's what they consider FREE... I call it FREE with strings attached. :croc:


What is really FREE? Thus far I know of two things, USPS boxes and Newswatch Magazine. I am YET to see other things that are FREE FREE, or FREE with no strings attached...


I am making this thread so that you and I could list things that we know are FREE FREE and without strings attached. Please post links to things that are free.


USPS Boxes
WebSite: USPS - The United States Postal Service (U.S. Postal Service)
Order free boxes: Category - Priority Mail
How it works: you place an order and boxes arrive to you for free, you don't own the post office nothing.
NOTES: They see how many boxes you ordered and they expect you to ship Priority Mail them, they have a counter or something. If you keep shipping Parcel they will stop sending you boxes, thus a way around this is to order on your friends name and address.



Newswatch Magazine
WebSite: Newswatch Magazine
Order it: https://www.internetsubmit.net/newswatch/
How it works: they send you free magazine for 1 full year, at the end of the year they stop sending it, to continue to receive you have to call their customer support. To order ONLY enter this information: Name, address, city, state, zip, e-mail, phone. No other information, no card information is required. Submit the form and you will receive your magazine in the mail.
NOTES: Only give them name, address, city, state, zip, e-mail, phone. Nothing else.

I use Free Local Newspaper for packing my items instead of bubble wrap or peanuts when shipping.

I Get Free Priority Packing Tape at the local Post office and Free Boxes online.

Another thing that is free is At the Wholes Food Store where they give out free samples of the food they are promoting.

BooMer

How about lunch/dinner at Sam's Club Stores....
Free samples cooked on sight by nice old ladies.

Yeah I was going to put Sam's Club too but Thought that it wasn't exactly free since you are paying for a yearly membership. I use to go to Sam's until a BJ's Opened up a mile from my house.

here are a bunch of free things

i got caught recently using the priority and express mail envelops for 1st class mail. how did i do it? i would rip the flaps down the sides and turn them inside out and tape them. got away with it for like a year and the post master sent me a warning letter and a copy of the postal regulation that governs the use of flat rate envelopes. i think i got caught because one day i took like 7 of these and stuck them in the inside box. after that i put a box. well the box got jammed and you couldn't open or quite close the door. that was the day i got caught because they probably scrutinized wondering who is this a**hole that stuffed all this in here.

so if you don't get caught there are free envelopes.

you know i never thought of that... interesting

I do something similar to angelas111 except I take the tyvek priority mail bags flip them inside out and use them. never been caught. 4 years running on that one.

They just added printing on the inside of the boxes/tyvek, so I hope you stocked up on the old versions.

I never knew about this, I just ordered 500 boxes today. :cheer:

Nothing like a 4 year old thread coming back to life.

USPS no longer hands out free tape just for newbies to understand.

I got a garage full of boxes of their FREE tape!!!

Ordered by the boxfulls when BIL told me they were going to stop the free tape.

You mean the tape they used to give free? Hasnt lost its potency yet?

if anything that tape gets stronger over time.

USPS tape is some strong sh*t :hail:

Heck no.

Use it all the time.

Strongest tape made.

why do you think they're going out of business? the bigwigs were like lets go to uline and order a bunch of 3.5mil industrial packing tape and give it way. GENIUS!
