For a limited time, 102 Puzzle Quizzes for the Amazon Kindle is a free download until February 8, 2012.

Thanks to Hip 2 Save for posting the money-saving tip that got me a more than free Brita water pitcher. I purchased the slim Brita model at Walmart using a coupon for $4. The original price was $8.97. There is also a mail-in rebate for $10, which means that you actually make money with this deal. Scanning the comments of the original post, it may take a long time (they say 6 to 8 weeks), but the rebate check is $10 no matter what.

To Get this Deal, Use the:

• $4 off coupon for Brita pour-through pitcher – from your Sunday newspaper [Smart Source]
• $10 mail-in rebate form for buying a Brita water pitcher or faucet mount system

Aren’t these kiddies cute?

For one week only, you can download this image for free from Templates.com.

It will only be available for one week, and is then replaced with another free image.

This is a great illustration for bloggers and websites that write about kids and who would like to add a silly touch to their posts.

A few of the kids can certainly liven up a holiday post or two.

This past week, my favorite win was the $100 Amazon.com GC from a contest ran by Giveaway Blogs. Lately, I’ve been branching out and entering sweepstakes and all sorts of other contests. Some are really fun – like guessing how many candy canes are on a Christmas tree – I suggest you enter this one…it only takes a moment unless you will take the time to diligently count what you see on the tree like I will…so what did you guys get in your mailbox?

Don’t know how long this is going to last, but you can sign up for a free one-year subscription to Fitness Magazine. I just filled out the form, You’ll receive 10 issues for free. This deal is limited to one subscription per household. Offer is valid thru 11/10, but I’d hurry up – I believe this will continue until supplies last (whatever that means).  I really like this magazine and this came at a good time – my old subscription ran out a couple months ago.

The hours of daylight may have shortened, but that has nothing to do with the opportunities to snag free samples, win giveaways, and review new products on your blog. I received a handful of enjoyable freebies last week. Also, won more free food – my favorite. Do you like seeing all the things you can get for free over the Internet?
