Nope, not true-why do you think there is a "Free Stuff" forum? Lots of free stuff to be had here-but if there is a shipping charge involved, it negates the "freeness".
There is a lot of OK offers here but very few spark my interest that I want to give them my details. I looked all over this forum and the amount of information exchange involved in any free offer is worth a lot more to these companies than the shipping charge and the samples they give away! Give me one example when they only ask for simply your name and shipping address and I will jump right on it if it's something useful... Most of these offers involve a long questionaire form where you have to give them your email, age, date of birth, sex, income, what you have and what you buy, etc... This data is worth $10 - $20 bucks to many companies and the samples cost them pennies.

Sure it does, couponsniper. You just have to know how to navigate to it. Click on "In Stores Now" and you'll see the link to free samples. Can't tell you how many treats I get in the mail from WalMart. As far as the rest of your complaint, I use a free program called Roboform. When I get to a page with a form to fill out for a freebie, Roboform does it for me. Couldn' be easier. http://www.roboform.com/ I've been a member of FatWallet for three years, and let me tell you - it's made going to the mailbox fun! Sure, there's some pretty useless things I receive sometimes, but there's some great treasures that arrive too. Give it a chance!
Hey, I just got mine - it looks awesome... I am tempted to put on eBay!!

Hello, please direct me to the master list of websites where I can be paid $10-20 a pop for inputting a little bit of data.
I need a new car.

Ship and handling via Fedex $16.41 to receive it next Thursday. All other shipping options were more expensive, up to around $85.00.
Yes, I did my own sneaky inquiry and that's what they replied with.... It seems no more USPS shipping!
Customer Service Email said: Hello xxxx,
Thanks for you recent inquiry. We have recently switched from USPS to FedEx shipping due to numerous complaints by our customers that shipments were arriving dented or damaged. The FedEx shipping calculator is completely automated and displays shipping quotes based on real-time FedEx shipping rates, which may vary significantly by zip codes and final destinations.
Although not guaranteed, FedEx may actually charge less for business addresses since they are more likely to be making daily stops at business locations. You may want to have the item delivered to your work if possible. Also the shipping zip code will affect the shipping charge even if the item(s) are being shipped to the same State. FedEx charges more to rural areas deliveries and unusual routes.
We have noticed a slight increase in shipping rates across many shipping carriers due to the implementation of a new fuel-surcharge, but that should only raise the shipping charge slightly.
Our records show that we have actually shipped the same item to New Jersey ranging from $5.50 to $26 depending on zip code and location as I mentioned before.
I apologize that I cannot offer you a discount code at this time, since the item is free and the discount code will not work for free items. You will be receiving a coupon for 10% OFF on your next purchase and it will be printed on your invoice.
I will escalate this matter to a supervisor to look more into this incident. Should they find that the shipping charge displayed on the website is erroneous in any way, you will be contacted again. I hope this helps and have a wonderful day.

What pop-ups and waht list? Oh, here...
Amazon has a great baby registry promotion going on. Once $750 worth of merchandise is purchased through your baby registry, you get six months worth of Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Baby Diapers for free ($250 limit).
I actually checked online on fedex.com to ship the same tube to myself from their address and it came out 2 bucks cheaper! I guess the 2 bucks amounts to packing material or something!
