Who says there’s no such thing as a free lunch?

Remember the post I made a little over one year ago talking about Freeipods.com? For those of you who weren’t with us then and are too lazy to click the link, I discussed in it how successful and legitimate the site was and how I was on the verge of obtaining my own iPod for free. Well, like I said, I received my free iPod with little to no hassle whatsoever and since then, numerous amounts of companies have capitalized on the success known as the “freebie craze.”

There are sites where you can obtain free digital camera and free laptops. You can obtain free flatscreen monitors and TVs and even free desktop computers. And for the ladies out there, you can even get free Louis Vuitton or Gucci handbags. You can receive pure cash via Paypal or even computer or car parts to add onto your current hardware. The possibilities are seemingly endless.

So why do I bring all this up one year later? Well, as I said, there are plenty of legitimate companies out there. But for every safe site out there, there are five dodgy ones that I wouldn’t go near. It’s quite easy for anybody to start one of these sites and in the end they never send out the free prizes they promise. As well, there are many trial offers that I would suggest staying away from (DAMN AOL!) and so I decided that with the explosion of popularity in the freebie craze, people might find it useful to have a centralized location to receive news, tips, help, and suggestions along the way. I’ve been getting free prizes for over a year now and I felt that the knowledge I picked up along the way shouldn’t go to waste, so I created Hey, It’s Free! On it, you can find a walkthrough, tips, message boards, offer suggestions, and reviews of many of the popular sites. I’ll let you know which ones to go near, which ones to avoid, and the best ways to get your freebie prizes.

And to show that I know what I’m talking about, the Grand Opening Post on Hey, It’s Free! gives you a simple walkthrough on how to get a brand new free DVD! So if you’re interested in getting a free ipod, x-box, or good ‘ole cash, go check out Hey, It’s Free! Heck, it’s worth your while just to go and get the free DVD, so what are you waiting for?!

    This is a great idea, and the site itself is awesome! Good job!

    I’d definitely love to take you up on your offer. I still have five referrals to get… I had five sign up, but not one of them actually completed the offer. My referral link is over on my site under “site info”. I didn’t want to post it here, since I’m not sure how picky your spamment blocker is, if ya have one. ;)
