Do you keep track of all freebies applied for?

NicolaC

Just wondering how many people keep track of all freebies they apply for and if they actually turn up or not.

I only apply for a few that definitely seem legit and would be something I want anyway, but usually I forget about it until it either turns up or I see someone mentioning it on here again!

So... do you keep track?
If you do... how?

I don't, I just apply and see what happens, a lot of the ones I go for never turn up

Oh my gosh... really?

Do you put in all the freebies as you apply for them? or just once they've arrived?

I'm thinking you have waaaaay too much time on your hands! :rotfl:

the database is split into diff bits

applied, recieved and reapplied, its a nice clear record of what ive applied for, what Ive recieved and what can be applied for again.

Keeps me busy, working, looking after the kids, bargin hunting and freebie'ing :j

icecubequeen, if you don't mind me asking, how many freebies do you manage to find to apply for in an average month?

I have a spreadsheet of the freebies I've applied for, the website address, where I had it sent to (uni or home address), the email address I used, any username and passwords needed, date ordered freebie, and date it arrived
