Hi everyone!
My name is Nikki and I'm new to SmartCanucks and freebie/coupon hunting.
Question for seasoned members: what is your daily routine?
- What magazines/websites/other things should I register for to be informed about coupons and freebies?
- What sites are you a member of to get free samples (ex. Influenster, BzzAgent)?
- What sites do you check daily to learn about new free samples or deals?
Thank you so much and I'm excited to meet you all! :excited:
Welcome to the board!

Welcome to the board!
Can't speak for everyone else but I have an email address and FB, Twitter dedicated just for couponing and contests. I sign up for every legitimate offer that I qualify for and know I will use. Often even contests give coupons as a consolation prize to their instant win contests online. Those testing sites require a lot of participation/reviews to get products but they will send you stuff if you participate and get their on time. I have already been sent a free product to try and review. My biggest concern is finding mail-to-home coupons at the moment so I check coupon portals often, as well as read the blog here to see if there are any new coupons available.
Paid-for magazines are touch and go. I wouldn't pay for a magazine just to get coupons unless you also like the magazine itself. Once in a while there will be no coupons, once in a while they include a special insert with some good coupons but more often there's just one or two in a magazine.
Your better bet would be to get free magazines some stores come out with on their own like the Chill Magazine at the beer store, the Food & Drink magazine at the LCBO and the Live Better Magazine from walmart. Also sign up for newsletters online for products you like and buy regularly. If you have a printer, they will send you printable coupons. If you don't, sometimes you get lucky and they'll mail you some or samples to your home. It's nice getting little surprises like that in the mail!
