I was wondering if anyone knows.... - Canadian Freebie Forum ~Canada's top free sample, coupons, & contests forum

I was wondering if a freebie says "continental USA", does that mean Canada as well? As in the same continent as USA? I just wanted to know if I've wasted my time on sending away for freebies that probably will never come (although I've been surprised at some freebies that I have received that say only US)

To my line of thinking the 'USA' part means 'only to America', but others with more experience may know differently.

In answer to your question, continental means all 50 states and not Alaska and Hawaii... hope that helps.. There is no use in applying to the US freebies.. they will not come to Canada.. sorry !!

If it lets you put in your province and country then they might send you a sample. Sometimes you luck out on getting freebies from US and UK only sites. So my opinion it doesn't hurt to try.

It means just the US states but sometimes you can get a freebie from US if you can get in your address,so you can always try but dont expect it.When it does come its a nice surprise.

I would think US only

pwwbear · 04-23-2007

continental USA are the 48 states, excluding Hawaii and Alaska.

You can try it, but it generally means US only.

But if there is an option for military bases in canada, try that option. They want to save on postage, so no airmail.
