  • Mailbox Goodies: Free Glade, Secret, Eggs, Lotion & More!

    Mailbox Goodies!

     

    One of the best parts about getting the mail is when the mailbox full of goodies, especially when they are free!  Last week I was only home for a few days but we received some great coupons and stuff in the mail.  Most of these deals are no longer available but I will try to keep you posted of some of the new ones coming up.

    Here are some items we received in the mail:

    • $5.00 off Coupon at Publix – Sign up for Publix Deals at your local store
    • Free Secret Scent Expressions “So Very Summer Berry” Deodorant – Received from Secret’s Facebook Fan Page
    • Free Jergens Day Ultra Healing Lotion & Night Overnight Repair Lotion Samples – Received from Jergens Website

    If you are like me it is nice when you get a mailbox with free coupons and samples in it.  The bills will come as well but when you get a mailbox full of free items it helps make the day a little more enjoyable.  Plus the coupons and samples are a great way to stretch your budget or share with others!
