Why Don't I Ever Get Any Freebies!!!!!!!!

**gothgirl** · 04-20-2003, 05:31 PM

I am so mad! I have signed up for nearly every freebie on the web it seems like and none of them ever seem to come. I have an empty box most of the time except for the occassional magazine. I want some real freebies! I never got any of the good ones that I signed up for. Some of my survey checks have yet to come in too and I am so mad I could scream! I sure could use some cheering up. I want some freebies to come in so badly! I want to go to my mailbox and find something there that is good and not crappy! Anyone got any freebies they don't need or want? Send 'em on to me...I will give them a loving home.

Hmmm, maybe you should mention something to your mailman. I'm not accusing him or anything, but you might tell him that you have been expecting some packages and none of them have shown up and see if he won't check into it for you. Not sure this will help, but it might.Are you usually home when he shows up? Could be someone else sees him fill up your box and then comes along to help themselves.

Yup. I've had neighbors help themselves to my mailbox before. {{{Gothgirl}}}

You are not the only one....I sign up for most of the freebies too and very rarely get any of them

I get most of the ones I sign up for. But mine are open or damaged allot of the time. Guess it depends on your mail carrier. I seen one time on a show like 20/20 how they would find dumpsters full of mail sometimes unopened like someone just dumped a mail bag full into it. It must take a special type of stupid though to steal freebie junk. I mean after all it would be considered a federal offense. I don't think I would want to go to the federal pen over a sample.

This year I have had delivered to my home a digital camera, realised it was our neighbors and hubby quickly ran it down to them. It had their correct address on it. Then UPS man delivered a Queen size bed...no...not mine either. He actually tried to convince me it was mine...lol. He had to haul it back onto his van...and no...it wasn't addressed to my home. I get neighbors mail at least 5 times a week...it's rediculous and kind of makes me wonder who may have been delivered my mail. Here's another...I put a bill in my mailbox for the mailman to pick up...he did...then politely delivered it to next doors house with their mail

I am almost always at home when the mail carrier runs so I don't think anyone is stealing them out of my box. I do wonder about the postal people maybe taking them though. It just looks a little strange that I haven't gotten alot of the freebies I have been waiting on.

sounds like me. I have ordered a lot of freeibes and have yet to get any of them, just a couple mags and those are a good 2 weeks late and most of the pages are missing. I can look out the window and see diffrent vehicles dropping of our mail, diffrent people in the cars too.

I just dont get why my mailMAN would want to keep my sample of tampons. lol

First advice..get up early, hit this site and many others..don't try on stuff after a 2 day post, and some are gone in hours..The Self Mag, I am yet to EVER get, I got lots today..if you want to E-mail me on ideas and sites..I can send some to you..I am up early, and have 1/8 of my house for free, from food to clothes..I am good at this, but I use boards, as I haven't figured out how these posters do it!!!
I can help and share some ideas!!!

zitra--Blink hasn't had the 20 pointers in about three months that I know of. I sure never see the posts about them. Used to be the post about Blink 20's would be 7-17 replies long

about the U.S. Post Office--I know there is a problem with the Lakewood, CO Post Office. The $25.00 Wal-Mart gift card I redeemed for in 2002 came in an envelope that had been ripped open; the notice the gc had been in was refolded & the gc gone. I contacted Memolink about it, asked for the tracking number & when & where the gc was redeemed. It had been redeemed the day it was mailed, at a Colorado WalMart. The 2 Barnes & Noble gift cards I had redeemed for b4 had been left alone & made it through the mail. If you belong to Memolink, I suggest you redeem for Barnes & Noble gcs; the thieves at the Lakewood P.O. (or Memolink, despite customer services' denial of wrongdoing) are apparently illiterate
