| Head Cheif   Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Northern Alberta |  Important Information on future freebies!!!!  Attention All Freebie Hunters. Canada Post has begun complaining to the goverment about the amount of Junk mail they are having to put into mail boxes, including small envelopes filled with samples, And the goverment is listening, and they are adding additional taxes to Businesses. according to the National News tonight on tv tonight. According to the article I found “Any thing beyond a normal FLAT envelope is going to have to pay up 35% more”. The Extra Charges will be in effect July 1 2008. So I am thinking less companies will be handing out free samples with the additional postage hikes of 35%. We may see more coupons ( if lucky). So you should hurry and order as many free samples as you can I think Canadianfreestuff.com will be going to more of a coupon listing and Online freebies, as I think we will be more opt to see samples be in our mailbox. |

Thanks: 236 Thanked 3 Times in 3 Posts | That sucks. They are already lazy enough and over paid!!! With all the online banking and ebills and stuff, pretty soon they will all be out of jobs. Don`t they realize that. Yes, lets all order as many freebies and cataloges and junk as we can, while we can. |
