Denny’s Free Grand Slam Breakfast ~ Tuesday February 9th!
February 7, 2010
Happy Superbowl Sunday!! I’m sure many of you might have taken advantage of the Denny’s Free Breakfast deal that was announced last year on Superbowl Sunday during one of the commercials! Well, guess what…they’re offering a FREE Grand Slam Breakfast once again this year, which will be announced during one of the Superbowl commercials.
The free Grand Slam breakfast will be offered on Tuesday February 9th from 6am – 2pm. Just be prepared for long waits! My husband went before work last year and actually tried 2 different Denny’s locations and they both had super long wait times! He ended up getting a raincheck. So….how many of you went last year to get your FREE Grand Slams? How long of a wait did you have?
Here are some other Denny’s offers you’ll want to check out:
-Go HERE to enter to win a FREE Grand Slam a week (52 Grand Slam’s). If you’re one of the first 500,000 to enter, you’ll receive an email for a FREE Burger & Fries. This email will be sent out on February 28, 2010. You’ll also receive a special offer on the anniversary of your Denny’s Rewards membership.
-For those who enter before Feb 14, 2010, you will also receive a special welcome offer (most likely with a freebie or coupon)!
And for those with birthday’s coming up, you can go into any Denny’s for a FREE Original Grand Slam for your birthday! It doesn’t sound like you need a coupon for that as they are advertising it on the main page, with the info on the free Grand Slam on Tues 2/9.
Thanks Centsible in Seattle!
Free Onion Rings at Sonic with Steak Melt Roaster purchase
February 6, 2010
Sonic has a nice little freebie going on right now – get FREE medium-sized onion rings with your purchase of a Steak Melt Toaster sandwich. I’d recommend calling your local restaurant to make sure this is happening in your area.
You can find out about special offers from Sonic by signing up for the Sonic email newsletter -you’ll receive info about freebie offers, special coupons and a special birthday treat!
(I always recommend using an alternate email address to sign up for newsletters & such, so you’re not receiving too many offers in your regular email!)
Thanks EADFL!

I apologize for my lack of posting the last few days….yesterday was a double birthday in our family–my hubby’s birthday and my little one’s 1st birthday!! So, we had a busy day getting ready for the birthdays and celebrating!
). And they both got birthday sundaes, complete with the singing! 
So, all we had to pay for was my meal! Now, that was a fun and frugal way to celebrate a birthday!!

Birthday Freebies
July 27, 2009
I thought I’d do another quick post to remind you about signing up for birthday freebies!! It’s a good idea to sign up for them all at once and then when your birthday (or a family member’s) comes around, you’ll start getting your inbox FILLED with all sorts of offers and you can choose which ones sound like the best deals or the most fun to try out!! My oldest daughter and I both have birthdays in May, so I signed both of us up for a number of birthday freebies and we had so much fun trying some out!! My youngest daughter and husband’s birthdays are in October (on the same day!) so I need to get to work signing them up, too!

Free samples from Walmart!
February 27, 2009
I love Walmart samples because they always arrive within a few weeks and the forms are very simple to fill out (I use the free version of Roboform which makes it go even quicker). If you’ve already requested the sample, you cannot request it again, unless it’s a new one that’s come out. You have to sign up for each of these individually as well (which is why I love Roboform so I don’t have to fill out the information over and over) So, here are the links to the current Walmart samples::

Free personalized greeting from the President for gift!
February 27, 2009
When I was looking thru the website I mentioned below with the huge list of birthday freebies, I came across a cool idea that I haven’t heard of before. You can request a free, personalized greeting from the President of the US for certain special occasions! I think this is a very special, unique gift, which you could frame or place in a special scrapbook or memory book, at a minimal cost to you! A memorable but frugal gift!!
It turns out that there are several ways you can receive a free personalized greeting or card from the current US President::
1) To celebrate your baby’s birth – the request must be submitted within the baby’s first year of life (but not before the child is born). I think this is such a cool idea to put in your child’s scrapbook or baby book (wish I’d known about it for my older daughter, but I’m definitely going to request it for my baby to put in a scrapbook for her!).
2) To celebrate a birthday – this is only for people 80 years old or older. The requests typically take around 6 weeks so make sure you send away for this in time to be presented to your family member/friend on their birthday!
3) To celebrate an anniversary – Couple must have celebrated 50 years or more to receive a greeting from the president.
*One website (which is a few years old) stated that you could also request a personalized greeting for a wedding (after the date), Eagle Scout award, Girl Scout Gold award, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or an equivalent event. However, I could not find any more information about this, so I’m not sure that it is accurate for the current administration. But, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try.
Here is what you need to do to request a free, personalized greeting:
1) You have to be a US citizen
2) Provide the name, address, date of birth/birthday/anniversary date of the person for whom the letter will be sent
3) If you’re requesting it for someone else, provide your name and address as well. If you’re requesting this as a gift to give them, make sure to have them send it to you.
4) Send your request by mail or fax::
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Fax#: 202-456-2461
You could also call the White House contact number for more information::
