Lets keep freebies FREE Please

[GoJays]

i predict that the only people reading this thread are the ones who don't pull any of the dumb crap that is being posted about

[Darth Penguin]

If you thread has already been moved for being in the wrong section don't post the same item AGAIN in the wrong area!!!

+1, 000, 000... reeding is teh hard

Just when I think I can not longer be surprised by threads that clutter the freebie forum...

Now there's a new one to add to the mix: Creating a thread to ask about a non-freebie!

Lets see earlier this week their thread requesting votes was moved to the facebook voting area. So they post again today and title it free coupons but it is still a voting request that will be a contest. DOES NOT BELONG HERE

Nivea-Door Hanger

Door hangers cannot be requested.
Door hangers do not appear on every door in Canada.
Door hangers do not belong in the Freebie forum.

I don't even understand the point of "I got this door hanger" threads in the first place. If I am inept enough to miss a coupon/sample hanging from my front door RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE WHERE I HAVE TO PUT MY KEYS IN TO OPEN IT then I don't deserve it in the first place.

Request sent to have it moved to Canadian Coupons forum.

P&G - Loblaws gift card

MIRs and questions about current MIRs do not belong in the Freebie forum.

And this is why I'd prefer people not to jump the gun and post create threads until they are certain it will be a freebie:

TicTac Canada giveaway

Request sent to have it moved to Canadian Contests forum.

Giveaway = Contest
Big announcement = Contest or new product or something else
Big, exciting news = Something MEH

Believe me, I could fill up the Freebie forum with oodles and oodles of similar threads. But I manage to restrain myself until I am positive something 100% free will be given away. I just wish others could do the same...

Wonderful, just wonderful. This morning I requested that this thread be moved and it was. And now it's made a reappearance in the Freebie forum. Some people just don't get it.

Danone Magazine Subscription (2011)

Why do people continually insist on creating threads to ask if certain freebies have been received?

Request sent to have it moved to Discuss and Request Deals and Coupons forum.

I don't know why it has to be said so many times on here please do not create a thread to say you have received an item. Do so in the original thread!

Bump

I searched for this thread, not realizing it's a sticky.
I guess a bump isn't necessary lol

[elizabeths22]

If you create a thread in the freebie section where the word contest is in your title maybe that should tell you it doesn't belong in the freebie section.

[GoJays]

I wish people would STOP changing their thread title to "delete"... If you want it deleted then simply report your own thread! Yes! You can do that!!

completely agree! Or when you can hit the mark as expired button.

maybe the website should be more organized so the information can be found EASILY.......Then the dupication of posts won't be here..........That won't weed out idiots who don't know the true meaning of FREE though.........
