Free DVD Movie Rental from Redbox

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 01:59:00 +0000

I've been renting movies from DVD rental kiosks for a few years now.
I love the convenience and the affordability. Most kiosks like Moviecube and
Redbox rent new movie rentals for only a few dollars.

So I'm definitely going to try the free movie rental offer from Redbox. You just need to go to Redbox's signup page at http://www.redbox.com/Help/Signup.aspx
and register your email. When you register your email address, you'll receive one night's free rental from Redbox. Their kiosks are very conveniently located too. Many of Redbox's movie rental kiosks are located at supermarkets, drugstores (such as Walgreens), McDonalds restaurants, and also at convenience stores.

Free Panda Internet Security 2010 Download on October 22 - $80 Value!

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 04:06:00 +0000

Panda Security is celebrating the launch of Windows 7
(Microsoft's new Windows operating system) with
a free offering of Panda Internet Security and 1 year of free updates.
This looks like a great program as it does antivirus protection and
it also protects against spyware, rootkits, etc.

To get the free download, go to Panda's promo site
http://us.pandasecurity.com/w7launch/ on October 22.

You need to:
1. Register at this site on 10/22/09
2. Download the Internet Security 2010 from the same Web site
3. Receive the activation code for 1 free year and use it

Internet security and anti-virus programs are indispensable these
days, so this is a great offer to protect your PC. And this software normally
sells for $80 on Amazon.com and on Panda Security's website.

It looks like this freebie won't help Mac users, as it is a freebie to celebrate
the launch of Windows 7. But hey, Mac users have it made anyways,
they usually get less viruses than Windows users.

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 21:17:00 +0000

I'm switching to environmentally friendly laundry detergents. In the past year, I've been using Borax and other enviro-friendly detergents. Now, I've found out that Seventh Generation laundry detergent is giving out free samples of their laundry product so I'm
going to try their product too.

They say that their product is a "healthy way to fight tough stains, naturally". You can get their free laundry sample by following this process:
1. Register your email address at http://www.seventhgeneration.com/user/register?destination=node%2F120109 at

Free Coupon for Clover Leaf Flavored Canned Tuna

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 19:15:00 +0000

Hey everyone:

Cloverleaf is giving out a free coupon for a flavoured canned tuna product.
To get the canned product, you need to register on Clover Leaf's website at
http://www.cloverleaf.ca/personalization/?q=users/register/account and
submit your email address. After you registered at this page,
you will see a link for a survey page. You need to click on this link and
complete the survey and submit your mailing address in order to get the coupon. This freebie
is only available to Canadians (BTW, Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to my Canadian readers today!).

I've always liked using canned tuna in sandwiches. Speaking of "canned", have you ever thought about how many English expressions have the word "can"? There is the "can-can", a French dance performed by women in revealing dresses. There is "getting canned" or getting fired. And "can" is also a slang term for toilet, etc. ,etc.

The last book I purchased at Borders was David Liss' book "The Coffee

out Hugo Boss' great sample. They're giving out free samples of the

of this as well.

This offer is available worldwide (for people from the U.S., the U.K., Canada, etc.).
For Canadian users, when you enter your postal code, you need to enter it with a space
in the middle, e.g. M5R 2K2 (or else it won't go through).
After you have requested the sample, it should show say "Order
complete. Your samle id is... "
The website says "Samples are available as long as the stock lasts" so
you'll need to hurry on this one.

Free Starbucks Coffee Coupon When you download Barnes & Noble iPhone App

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 02:00:00 +0000

I need my hit of coffee almost every morning before work. So, when I read about this new Starbucks and Barnes and Noble promo, I was very excited.
Starbucks and B&N are giving away a free tall Starbucks Coffee when
you download the B&N app for iPhone.

Basically, you just need to download the free Barnes and Noble app - http://www.barnesandnoble.com/iphone/index.asp?r=1&r=1
and "show the café server your iPhone with the Barnes & Noble Bookstore application on display along with the on-screen coupon code."
When you have shown the app to the server, you will get a complimentary Starbucks Tall Brewed Coffee (hot or cold) at a B&N Cafe.

More details at http://www.barnesandnoble.com/email/nonav.asp?r=1&PID=28966&r=1

This offer allows one free Starbucks coffee per iPhone customer. This is a limited time offer as B&N and Starbucks could end this offer soon. I'm not sure if this will work on an iPod Touch, but it's worth a try because iPod Touch's can also run iPhone apps.

How to Earn Free Stuff (like Amazon gift certificates) on Swagbucks.com

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 01:28:00 +0000

If you haven't heard of SwagBucks, swag bucks are virtual dollars that you can earn by doing searches or entering bonus codes on their site swagbucks.com. They can be used to redeem "free" prizes thru their site. For example, 80 SwagBucks nets you a $5 paypal credit, and when you earn 45 swagbucks, you can redeem it for a $5 Amazon gift certificate.

Swagbucks also has a twitter site where they give you time limited Bonus credits. For example, over the July 4 weekend, Swagbucks users who entered the word "Independence" (now expired), earned 1 extra swagbuck.

I set swagbucks.com as my home page and I use it to do google searches every day. I usually earn about 1 swagbuck each day just by doing searches that I ordinarily do anyways. On top of this I earn a few extra Bonus swagbucks by entering the bonus codes like "Independence". I'm on track to getting my Amazon $5 gift certificate, hopefully I'll get it by next week.

If you don't have a Swagbucks account, you can register for one through Swagbucks' registration page. Check it out and enjoy it!

Hot! Old Navy Discount Coupons: Up to $65 off $100 Purchases

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 19:36:00 +0000

Over the holiday long weekend (Happy 4th of July and Happy Canada Day to all
E-Offerz readers), I came across some great Old Navy Coupons.
They have created an interactive site http://www.oldnavyweekly.com which has hidden coupons (hidden secret codes) on the site. The site changes the coupons regularly with chances for more coupons.

Currently, they have coupons for $10 off $50 purchases, $15 off $75 purchases, and a very rare $65 off $100 purchase.
Old Navy has created clever ways for you to get the coupons. When you're at oldnavyweekly.com,
you're doing a web scavenger hunt for the coupons:

1. For example, a $10 off $50 Old Navy coupon, click, hold, drag and drop the open mirror compact, keys and one of the change purses into striped tote.

2.To get a $15 off $75 coupon, drag the letter "E" keys into the cargo pocket of the girl with the olive colored pants.

3. For more clues to get other coupons, you can visit http://twitter.com/supermodelquin or
the Slickdeals discussion site on Old Navy Coupons at http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?t=1395797

4. If you want to check to see what coupons are left, you can view their coupon counter at http://media.oldnavyweekly.com/swf/modules/dealCounter_101.swf

These coupons are available for shoppers in the U.S.A. and Canada.

Free Album MP3 Downloads: Coldplay, Nine Inch Nails & Others

noreply@blogger.com (Peter) — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 01:30:00 +0000

Recently, I found more evidence that musicians and the recording industry are
moving towards an online model of selling and promoting music instead of
selling CD's in stores.

Two of the biggest bands in the world are offering their albums free for downloading.
(Note: all of the download links listed below are legal download promotions offered
by the artists mentioned below).

Coldplay is one of my favorite bands in the world. I last bought their excellent
CD "Viva la Vida: Or Death and all his Friends". Coldplay is also well-known
to be very appreciative of their fans. In their fan-friendly tradition,
Coldplay are offering their live album "Left Right Left Right Left",
for free downloading. Just go to http://www.coldplay.com/lrlrl/lr.html
This is a pretty good compilation of live recorded songs and it contains
live versions of classic such as "Clocks" and "Viva la Vida".

The other uber-popular band, Nine Inch Nails, is making their current cd
"The Slip" available for free download for an indefinite period.
Just download the album at http://theslip.nin.com/
I love the raw sound of NIN and 2 of my favourite tracks on this cd include
Demon Seed and Discipline.

If you're into more rock-oriented sounds, Chris Cornell
(of Audioslave and Soundgarden fame)
also has put out a track (called "Long Gone") for free download.
Just go to
http://www.dc101.com/download_center/data/register.html?id=161.

With the plethora of free promotional downloads from bands, we have more evidence
that the music industry is addressing the piracy problem and starting to respond to
fans' needs to get their music online. In return, the artists are making money through
online promotions and online advertising revenue.
