My Free Stuff

These are pictures of items that I have gotten for absolutely free or either extremely cheap by clipping coupons and watching for sales! I became encouraged to begin "bargain shopping" after seeing pictures like these on someone else's website. I post these pictures to serve as encouragement for others and to show that getting free stuff is easy if you just put a little effort into it.
