Starting today, I would like to try to keep track of the freebies, samples, and giveaways I get on a daily basis. I am hoping this will put some perspective into why and/or how samples and freebies can and do make a difference. Not all deals are created equal of course, and each one of our freebie requests are based upon individual needs.
To keep track, I am going to put a value to the “goodies” I get each day. There may be days where there is no value, but for the most part I get something for FREE a few times a week. Then at the end of the year, I would like to see how much in “value” (personal to me because I received for free to my home) I have accumulated and/or saved. Today was a great day to start as we got two (2) packages
