You're welcome. Freebies have been really slim the last several weeks. I'm disappointed. It's about time for a new listing though.

I use a junk email address for signing up for this stuff. I have never gotten any spam from the walmart site or startsampling. I'm sure that some of the spam I get comes from some of the other places, but by using a throw away email address, if I get tired of deleting spam, I can start with a new email at any time.

I don't get many telemarketing calls at all, so I don't see this stuff generating marketing calls. The most aggravating one that will NOT give up is the "Fraternal Order of Police". They are always calling asking for donations, in spite of how many times I nicely tell them to NEVER call me again, that I do NOT donate to anyone by phone. I guess I need to be mean the next time they call.

I have gone absolutely nuts with the freebies. Inspired by this thread.

Thanks again, Tina.

Looks like we both posted at the same time.

I am also using a different email address than my regular one. It's easier to sift through.
