Free. I love this word. Who doesn’t? It means receiving something without having to touch the wallet.
I can be a very resourceful person. When I learned that I was pregnant I equipped myself with all the knowledge I can get my hands on about pregnancy. I have already bought the pregnant mom’s bible, the book “What to Expect When Your Expecting” but it was not enough for me. I decided to get more information online. The research and the surfing not only informed and prepared me more for my pregnancy but has also lead me to prepare for my baby’s coming in the form of unlimited information and loads of free samples for the baby.
I received one year free magazine subscription from two baby magazines. Added to that were formula samples, diapers and a lot of other free stuff. Having a new baby can be very dangerous...to the wallet. Anything given for free can surely give any parent's wallet some rest. Here are ten websites where a new mom or dad and even an aunt can get freebies for the new family member.

Before you join or register to these websites I suggest you open a separate e-mail address just for these. Your mailbox will get crowded due to all the updates, offers, announcements and the like. Until now, I still get spam from my memberships. I can't remember all the sites where I was a member. Some of these are new to me but all these has the same offers of the sites I joined before.
If you don’t want to fill out so much information about yourself or your baby, you can select offers which will only ask for your name, e-mail address and home address for the delivery of goods. That’s what I did.
