Free Atkins goodies!

For those of you who, like me, are a little slow on the uptake, Atkins offers some free goodies when you register with their site. It's free to register and you get all this:

Quick Start Guide
3 Nutrition bars
Pocket carb counter
Access to their recipes

and more! No, I don't work for Atkins.com and I don't follow the Atkins plan but I have in the past and might do it again and I'm a fan, especially for those who are struggling with diabetes and/or high lipids and hypertension.

So, if you or anyone you care about needs to lose weight or get that blood sugar under control, tell 'em about this great freebie!

Start Over, Finish Rich - free!

I know some of you are interested in personal finance and for those of you who are, here's a freebie for you: David Bach's book, Start Over, Finish Rich. This is the same guy who wrote The Automatic Millionaire, Smart Women Finish Rich, and a host of other great books. This download is supposed to be free for just one day (yesterday) but it's still being given this morning.

So hurry and get yours!!

Sara over at Be Still and Know is hosting her first give away. She's giving some blessed person a hand crafted clip board. If you'd like to have a chance to win this gem for yourself or another person, just enter the giveaway.

Freebie Frenzy

I've got a pretty good collection of samples and freebies going and Sara at Learning the Frugal Life inspired me to dig mine out for use.

This is a picture of some of the health and beauty samples I have. My stash is made mainly of HBA items but I have laundry and food items, also. Using some of the goodies should save us a little money here and a little money there and what's not to like about that?

Some of the items we simply won't use and those are going to be listed on Freecycle. Surely someone can utilize them, huh? If they aren't picked up they'll go to the local shelter.

Do you have samples and freebies lying around? If so, this might be a good time to gather them up and use them or give them to someone who will. You might save a little money, free up a little space, or give a little help and those are all good reasons to get the freebies and samples together.

Who knows, maybe I'll win, even. :)
