Weird But True Freebies Monday: 5 Surprising Ways to Get Stuff for Free

🎁 Weird But True Freebies Monday: 5 Surprising Ways to Get Stuff for Free

Everyone loves a good freebie, but some of the best ones come from the weirdest places! These aren’t your usual “sign up and wait forever” freebies — they’re clever little hacks that really work.

All five are in the comments — and I guarantee at least one will surprise you 👇

💬 Tip #1

Ask brands directly on social media.
It might sound odd, but many companies are happy to send freebies or samples if you comment on or message them politely. A simple “I’ve always wanted to try your products!” on their latest post can sometimes score you a free sample or coupon. Companies love engaging with real fans, and this trick works more often than you’d think.

💬 Tip #2

Use “birthday month” hacks all year long.
Some brands let you claim birthday freebies any time within your birthday month, not just on the exact day. That means if you sign up for a few programs now and space them out, you can enjoy free coffees, snacks, and beauty samples practically every month of the year.

💬 Tip #3

Check recycling programs that reward returns.
A few beauty and household brands give you free products or discounts for sending back empty containers. Programs like these help the planet and your wallet. It feels strange mailing back an old bottle for a reward, but it’s a win-win that most shoppers overlook.

💬 Tip #4

Search “free with purchase” deals before checking out.
Many stores quietly offer bonus freebies when you spend a certain amount — especially beauty, pet, and grocery retailers. A quick search for “free gift with purchase” can reveal items you’d get anyway… plus a little something extra for free.

💬 Tip #5

Always check Frugal Freebies before you shop.
