    Free entry to Warwick Castle was a good one, especially as there was a long, long queue waiting to pay to get in, but you could just walk straight in with the coupon.

    it's hard to keep track (especially as some don't arrive and most arrive long after you've forgotten they exist!)
    but probably:

    Magic the Gathering starter set (Though I've yet to get around to playing it! and I recieved 3- one which I sent as a surprise to my partner, one for me and one which arrived because of a glitch in the online form for applying for the freebie)

    Move me box was pretty good (still have the long life milk... doesn't everyone?:rotfl: )

    King of Shaves Asor razor

    Almost endless supply of Amazon vouchers from various places- particularly bview who have been brilliant and send out great freebies to reviewers:T

    My top top fave was the free photobox collage poster which was a fabby gift for my boyf. Though I remember the "discussion" about whether it was a freebie or not due to the postage costs.. :rolleyes: personally I consider it a freebie, and my fave of 2008:T


    Ordered a Graze box for boyf which will arrive on Friday, I have high hopes as it seems like a great freebie so fingers crossed for a good start to 2009's freebie offers.

    Thanks so much to everyone who recommended these (and all the other) brilliant freebies:T
  • wow lol..ive only just come across the forum and seems i missed some good freebies!! lol...whats a move me box??! lol
    Having a coke with you
    is even more fun than going to San Sebastian, Irun, Hendaye, Biarritz, Bayonne
    or being sick to my stomach on the Travesera de Gracia in Barcelona

    Welcome:) Hope you stick around for some freebies now you've found us!:j

    The move me box was from this thread. You can still get it I think. Read through the thread people have gotten one even when they weren't moving;)

    I had quite a few fab freebies thanks to this board but i think the best has to be the Pontins holiday.
