Five Freebies Friday

I want to begin by apologizing for neglecting the blog yet again. Last Friday my husbands great uncle, who we were both very close to, passed away after a courageous fight with throat cancer followed by a stroke. He was 78 years old. I am happy to say that he decided to accept Christ as his Saviour a few months ago so I know that I will see him again and that he is now in a much better place. However, his funeral was Monday and as a result I did not create the scripture card and to be honest, I didn't feel like posting a recipe on Wednesday either. But life does go on for those of us still on planet earth. So that being said, here is this weeks list of five freebies.

First is a new site that I found that is offering four freebies: light mayo, caress body wash, a sample of Pond's creme, and new body sprays by degree.

Free Hallmark Mother's Day card! They will even mail it for you for free and promise it will arrive before Mother's Day if you order it today! The catch, you have to create an account with them to use the promo code. Once you do, create your 5X7 folded card and when you check out enter CARD4MOM in the promo code section. If you have more than 1 junk email account use each account to create a new Hallmark account and use the promo code more than once to mail a card to your mom and your MIL!

Free on the go cleaner from BabyGanics, just scroll down to the "click for more details" and then click for more details (duhh) and enter your info, remember fake phone # please!

This one is neat, and kind of a mystery freebie. Foma Publishing is offering samples of their free plantable cards. Basically recycled paper infused with seeds. They say that the paper may contain anything from wildflowers to vegetables. You will need to do a little extra work for this one. You have to input your mailing address, and then confirm your interest by clicking a link in an email they send you. Is it worth it? Dunno, will have to wait until I get mine. If this sounds neat to you, let me know by leaving a comment and I will do a tutorial on how to create your own plantable paper. A friend and I made up several batches as wedding favors.

And finally, Friday's fifth freebie: a coffee mug courtesy of a new horror film, Tom's Friend . The mug isn't all scary or horrory (is that a word?). Its just a plain jane mug with the words Tom's Friend on it. Could be a neat gift if your name is Tom! I'm not signing up for this once since my house tends to bred coffee mugs. I like my two travel cups and my big green coffee mug.

That's it for this Friday. I came across several older books on beading and such. I am considering using them as a giveaway, but I really don't think that I have the following for that yet. If you want a giveaway, show me that you are out there and leave a comment or two. Talk to you Monday!
