I'm back from housesitting for the weekend -- and guess what was waiting for me when I returned home? Well, I'll tell you whether you wanted to know or not.

-- Check from Opinion Outpost for $8.90
-- Two pairs of foam earplugs (and four replacement earplug flanges)
-- Sample of Alaway Antihistamine eyedrops
-- $5.00 coupon for purchase of Alaway eyedrops
-- Sample of Sunsilk Daring Volume shampoo
-- Sample of Sunsilk Daring Volume conditioner
-- Sample of Celine Dion Sensational perfume
-- Sample of Curamin inflammation response capsules

All things considered, not a bad haul, though I do need to check and see what's free this week on the Internet. (And go through my mail to catch up on surveys and such.) How was your freebie-finding and Internet-money-earning this week?

I would know if I checked my mail more than once a week. I've been really lazy to drive into town to get the mail. Hopefully it will be something good.

Great job. I haven't gotten many freebies the past week or so since I just started signing up for stuff recently. I just made it to the cash option as well, so that's keeping me excited for the moment.

Hey it is fun to come home to a bunch of freebies and such!

Doing pretty well. Got to test market some new items, having fun playing with tech gadgets, especially for free.

I ordered a $10 check from Synovate and a bunch of freebes for my granddaughter and greatgrandson but I haven't gotten them yet. Got a sample of Dove deodorant for my girlfriend (I'm allergic to Dove). I get five free magazines and Readers Digest, Entertainment Weekly, Better Homes and Gardens and Harpers Bazzar all came in the last couple of days plus my netflix dvd came the Astronaut Farmer can't wait to watch it. That's about it for me.

On Saturday, I received a $3 check from Pinecone. Still waiting on rewards from several other sites, but at least Pinecone came through for me! LOL Sounds like you had a very good mail day.

Got a free tooth brush to test last month, it was great. made some points from my other site.
Monica H. Aug 4, 2008, 8:33pm EDT
It's a whole lot better than bills! COOL!
Heidianna "Coriander" T. Aug 4, 2008, 10:00pm EDT
Cool stuff! I have let my freebies go for a while. My mailbox is lonely!

The biggest prize i ever got was instantly winning $150 on a survey from your2cents.com
Dusty Hubbard Sep 7, 2008, 5:26pm EDT
I signed up for tons of free samples, but no luck this week with getting any of them. Maybe this coming week will be better.
