How long?

marika · 08-21-2007

How long do you wait will you wait for a freebee before you give up and call it a no show?
And How do you keep track of all the freebee's you applied for?

turtle22 · 08-22-2007

I dont, I just apply for all I can find and then check the mail religiously, and Im happy with whatever I get lol. Some apparently take up to 3 months to come, maybe longer.

turtle22 · 08-22-2007

I see that you joined in may, I joined in july and am just starting to get a few things, maybe once a week or every 2 weeks

cheetah · 08-22-2007

I try to keep an ongoing list of freebies/coupons I have requested and a note beside each one as to how long the delivery date is ei:4-6 weeks etc. Unfortunately I have more outstasnding freebies than received!

I highlight the ones I have received and when I received them. I guess I am a little anal that way. However I am too lazy to record the contests I enter unless they require a Upc code then I just put the cut out upc and pin it on my cork board in the office.
After 2 months of waiting I usually call it a no show.

But It took 3 months to get my schick intuition razors so there is still hope for some others-but It is fading fast. Kashi where are you????
Have about 7 or 8 contests that I enter daily and have a list of those too.

marika · 08-23-2007

Wow... I list everything too... the date's I have applied for them, then I also high light and date when I've received them... I use smilly faces beside to monitor how good the freebee was.... so three months ehh? Will keep waiting
Thanx

I never "wait" I usually forget the next day what it is I ordered. But I don't order much to begin with, more into contests now.

Destiny · 08-23-2007

I always just forget what I order, then when it comes it's always a surprise!!

momg · 08-24-2007

i forget most of what i applied for there are a few i remember. when i first started getting freebies it was everyday now its maybe 1 every 2 weeks. most of the good ones do take a long long time to come despite the 4-6 weeks for delivery.

sandib · 08-24-2007

they take anywhere from 5 weeks to 3 months to arrive and by that time i forgot what i requested so when things come its a surprise.

M_elle · 08-24-2007

Ive been doing this about a month now, and some are trickling in. I fully expect to get some of my first requests in October!

edennede · 10-13-2007

Been doing this only the second? month, I don't expect anything really, I just like the process of finding them and sharing them here more I guess.

Though I almost check my mailbox everyday now lol, it became habitual.

Veronica · 10-13-2007

I just apply for a bunch, and hope that they come. I however haven't ben doing this for that long, so I haven't really received much of anything yet.
