What types of freebies are your favorite?
If you come across a sample or freebie that is no longer available, please let me know in the comments so it can be taken off the list. I do my best to check each one before posting it here, but sometimes a sample appears to still be available when it isn’t and sometimes they run out soon after I post!
FREE American Girl Doll Party Event At Michael’s
Do you have a little girl in your household that’s wild about American Girl dolls? Then this fun and FREE event at Michael’s should be on your calendar for this weekend. On Saturday 9/25, visit Michael’s for a special The Knack event that will allow girls ages 8 and up to create everything they need to host an American Girl doll-sized party!
This event is while supplies last, and I imagine it will be very popular, so I’d recommend arriving early.
Thanks, Mummy Deals!
Win-It Wednesday: $100 AMEX Gift Card and Eco-Foil Pans!
Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!
Eco-Foil is a company dedicated to making a difference. Their aluminum baking trays and pans and the lids are made from 100% recycled materials. Not only are they made solely from recycled material, but Eco-Foil pans are also 100% recyclable themselves. So, what came from the recycling can go right back into the recycling. These are perfect for potlucks and the upcoming holidays because you can just rinse and recycle after you use them instead of having to worry about carting a dirty pan around or getting in the kitchen to wash it and then remembering to bring it home later after it’s dry.
Right now on their Facebook page, Eco-Foil is having a sweepstakes where you could win an iPad or one of ten second place prizes featuring their green products! Just “like” them on Facebook and enter the sweepstakes before 9/27 for a chance to win the final drawing on 9/30.
One lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a set of Eco-Foil Pans (ARV $30) and a $100 American Express Gift Card!

Saving Money and the Environment With Cucumber Water
We all know that drinking more water has tons of health benefits. So why don’t more of us take advantage of it? Well, let’s face it — plain water can get pretty boring.
Up until recently I’d been drinking a lot of SoBe Lifewater, but now that the great B1G1 coupon offer is over, it can be a real budget buster. So I’ve been looking for an alternative beverage, and I think I may just have hit upon one!
I remembered today that Mandi mentioned to me when we were on vacation that her family enjoys drinking cucumber water. I just happened to have a cucumber in the refrigerator that was leftover from making some delicious Tangy Sesame Cucumber Salad for dinner tonight, so I sliced one up and tossed it in this new reusable water bottle from Aladdin. It’s really quite tasty and very pretty too!
It also occurs to me that it’s a much better alternative for the environment. I’ve been increasingly aware of the amount of trash our family generates, and this is one way to cut back on our output of plastic bottle waste.
To promote awareness of the environmental effects of disposable product packaging, Aladdin is encouraging people to Do The Reuse Challenge. This is a 30-day commitment to give up disposable paper cups, water bottles, or food containers — difficult, but definitely doable,.
You might be surprised at the impact just one person can have by reusing:
- Seven million barrels of oil are used to produce the disposable bottles Americans go through in one year.
- In the United States, 50 billion disposable water bottles are consumed per year; 137,000 per day; 1,585 per second.
- It costs about $165 a year to make drip coffee at home versus $636 to buy drip coffee at your local café.
- Unless we change our habits, 23 billion paper coffee cups will be thrown out in 2010.
- Nine dollars will generally cover a decent lunch out. If you buy rather than pack a lunch five days a week, you shell out about $2,350 a year.
By accepting the Do The Reuse Challenge you’ll be able to get discounts and free shipping on selected Aladdin products. Follow Aladdin on Facebook to stay in the loop about this challenge!
How do you cut back on disposable product packaging? Will you be taking the Do The Reuse Challenge?
