    i know someone who does it. my opinion is get a job and quit being a freeloader. The man i am talking about used to beg on the street but then came the internet...some of these "bums" are getting sophisticated...getting stuff delivered to a mailbox off of sites like complimentarycrap and totallyfreecrap ... these websites are so pathetic and should be shut down... my opinion... these offerers should know better then this.

    Balt, whats your problem? You sound very needlessly angry. These sites are set up to give people the opportunity to test and use their products, its rare they give away enough to live on but even if they did so bloody what? Theyre not hurting anyone...these sites are choosing to give this stuff away!

    I personally think its great giving less fortunate people opportunities to try out new things. We have little money here, so these sites have been handy. We get the free sample and then know whether or not to invest in a few more of the product

    Jeez if you have negative feelings over THIS, i really would consider taking some happiness classes or something:rolleyes: Unless this was a joke! In which case consider getting out more

    no, i am not mad at everything...and congrats on you marriage soon. i guess the sites are useful...and I guess the companies are cool with being taken advantage of. I will admit that some of the stuff on there is actually pretty cool like the dancing glow sticks

    I get free stuff sent to me all the time, like laundry detergent, toilet paper, cereal and other stuff like that. At work I get free sample machine parts and industrial equipment parts all the time too. I usually have enough of those to build some pretty neat stuff that makes life around the shop much easier.

    Not only are there websites that give out free stuff, a guy I work with enters these online vacation sweepstakes all the time. He said he hasn't had to pay to go on vacation in years. Some even pay the airfare. I not sure what the catch is, you probably have to listen to a timeshare speel for an afternoon.

    yes, your probably talking about freepassageway.com which i stumbled upon checking out complimentarycrap...they make it real easy to enter but you'll probably never win anything. on second thought, i wonder how much free stuff you get.

    I think free stuff is a-okay! I never get any, but you guys make it seem easy. This is the opposite intention of this thread, but I'm gonna go look for some free stuff now. awesome.
