It’s been said that the best things in life are free — and we couldn’t agree more. That’s why we’re back with our third annual list of our favorite freebies.
We looked for primo goods and services, no useless junk allowed. And boy, did we find ‘em, from financial management and planning helps to entertainment and vacation freebies.
Go ahead. Embrace your inner tightwad:
1. Free Video Games
If you’re looking for games for the kids — or an excuse to act like a kid yourself — head toKongregate.com, Popcap.com, Pogo.com andOnlineFlashGames.org for thousands of free online and downloadable games of all types.
For educational or just-for-fun games suited to young kids, check out PBSkids.org, DiscoveryKids.com, NickJr.com and Scholastic.com/kids.
2. Free Birthday Goodies
A slew of businesses will give you prime freebies on your birthday that almost make getting older worth it. For instance, anyone can get free admission to Disneyland or Disney World parks in 2009. Join the birthday club at Toys R Us and your child (younger than 10) will get a free toy or gift card every year.
If you sign up in advance to join the club at your favorite eatery, you could score free food on your birthday too. For example, you can get a free meal at Famous Dave’s BBQ and free ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery and Baskin Robbins. Search the Web for “birthday freebies,” then call your local restaurants to ask whether they participate in the deal.
