πŸ’Œ Did You Know November 7 Is All About Bear Hugs?

Some days just deserve an extra hug — and November 7 is officially Bear Hug Day! It’s the perfect excuse to spread a little love (and maybe save a few dollars while you’re at it). To celebrate, we created a free Bear Hug printable you can download, print, and share with friends and family.

Because hugs are free, but this one is extra cute — and totally frugal-friendly. πŸ’•

πŸ’‘ Fun ideas to use it:

  • Tuck it into your kid’s lunch box for a sweet surprise.

  • Leave one on a coworker’s desk with a snack or note.

  • Mail it to someone you miss — it fits perfectly in an envelope!

  • Use it as a coupon redeemable for a real bear hug at home.

Add a touch of color with markers or crayons, or print on bright paper to make it pop. The more personal it feels, the more meaning it brings.


❤️ Why a Printable Hug Matters

In a busy world, a simple gesture like a hug — even a paper one — can make a difference. A Bear Hug Printable is a fun reminder that love and kindness don’t have to cost a thing. It’s the kind of freebie that spreads joy without spending a penny — and that’s our favorite kind of frugal find.

So print a few extra and pass them around your community. Let’s fill the day with smiles, one Bear Hug at a time.


πŸ“Έ Share the Hug Challenge!

Want to spread the love even further?

Here’s your frugal fun challenge:

  1. Download the printable.

  2. Give someone a Bear Hug (or send one in the mail).

  3. Post a photo of your hug on social media with #BearHugFreebie and #FrugalFreebies.
