DECEMBER CONTEST

Well, here is the moment you have all been waiting for....
First I have to explain WHY I am doing this contest this way this time...You see, I was going through our forum the other day to see how "clean" it was. I don't know if you guys have noticed, but we try to make sure that the only freebies we have posted are ones that are CURRENT. Well, we have the most wonderful moderators and managers on here, because they do a terrific job of making sure the old freebies go to the graveyard where they can Rest In Peace! When ever I go around looking to see how CLEAN the site is....it always is. But I must give credit to the members, too, who report when they find a dead one. Kudos to all of you!!

Anyway, while I was reading through all the freebies, I noticed that most of the new freebies are being posted by just a few people. And I am amazed at the amount of work that they have dedicated to this site. : down:

So here was my idea....I want to give a $10 Walmart Gift Card to the member, moderator, or manager who posts the MOST NEW FREEBIES during the month of December!! Now here's the rules...
1. It must be a NEW freebie, so perform a search first. That is why we put the OLD freebies in the GRAVEYARD, so that they will show up on a search.
2. IF you find a freebie that is one we've already had, BUT it is a new link...that will count. For example, some freebies are given by the manufacturer AND ALSO given by Walmart....these count as NEW ones as long as it is a NEW LINK.
3. There is a thread called "Freebie Hunting Tips" if you need help locating them.
4. In the event that two people post the same one, the person who's post appears FIRST (time stamped) will get the credit, and the other one will be put in the graveyard.
5. Since this contest will end on December 31, 2009 EVERYONE will be eligible to win this contest.
6. Just to liven up this contest, I am going to make it possible to post FOR someone else. So if you want to post a freebie, but you DO NOT want to compete, you can transfer the credit of your post to whomever you want. (Ismile, this is for you!) However you must decide at the time you post WHO you want to give credit to, and once stated you can not change it later.

Okay, if there are any questions, let me know...either in here or PM me.

I will be keeping a tally and get it out to you about every three or four days so that everyone can see where they are!! Good Luck!

Good Contest! Now lets start looking for those freebie! I need something in my mail other than !

YOU GO GIRL!!!

BTW- the official start time on this contest is 12 noon (Pacific time) December 1, 2009

Good Luck to All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very contest

But I have no chance in snagging this win cause I have no luck in finding freebies. Good luck to everyone.

okay, someone was asking me today if I could clarify some stuff on this contest.

In this contest we are not counting the number of POSTS you make. We are counting the number of NEW FREEBIE LINKS you post.

I am considering all links posted in any of the sections that are for products or services we receive. In other words USA FREE SAMPLES, INTERNATIONAL FREE SAMPLES, Mail-in,Call-in,Walk-in free samples, Coupons for free products.

Well, this is getting exciting.....I have been getting PM's about people wanting to help each other get the prize on this one....

So far Jersma has a secret admirer who has tried to give her credit for a freebie link. Unfortunately the link was one we had already posted and taken down earlier this year. So it did not count.

But also, one of our managers, Patty, has decided to credit all her finds to a new member, Wanda... Now let's get some competition rolling!!!!

Good luck everyone!!!

Jersma's kicking butt!!! You go girl!!!

And Patty that was really nice of you to do.

Seems like everytime I see a freebie somewhere (which right now they are very few) it's already posted here.

Well, I like the fact that people can come here and get ALL their freebies here first! that is my ultimate goal....

And you girls are kicking butt on this contest! I see Patty has piled in a ton in International Freebies!! All counting toward Wanda's score...GO Wanda, GO!!

well, don't look now, but in International Freebies Patty is really applying the HEAT....better watch out Jersma!!!

Im just doing my part and helping out one of our newest members!!
Im actually hoping that some of the newer members will join in on the contest too. A lot of them are looking around, but not really joining in yet. I think this is the perfect time for us to get to know you, and for all of you to join in on the fun. Its no where near to late to start members. Even if you dont want to join in on the contest, please dont be afraid to join in on the fun.

i love the competitive spirit!

Well, we are one week in to our December contest and here are the stats so far:

Cin_20 = 3
Jersma = 64
WandaDH = 4 (plus 48 from Patty432) for a total of 52
