.Getting FREE stuff in the mail is the best but I want to make sure that you are getting just that...totally FREE stuff. Here are a few tips to when signing up for freebies:

1. NEVER sign up for a freebie that requires you to give your credit card information. Any legitimate free offer will not ask for this.

2. You may want to create a separate email to use when signing up for freebies so your regular email doesn't get slammed. You can create a free account with google, yahoo, aol, etc...

3. Get in early- most freebies are of limited supply and once an offer is passed around the blogosphere, it goes fast!

4. Use legitimate sources to sign up for freebies, for instance - the company's own website, facebook, or twitter. Here are some great places to find freebies:
*My Baton Rouge Mommy - check back often for the best free offers available!
*Walmart.com free samples
*Vocalpoint.com - sign up now to start receiving free samples, full sized items and high-value coupons
*Kraft first taste -…

.Let's cut to the chase....it's HOT outside and it's only June. Apparently Racetrac understands this so they are offering UNLIMITED Free Refills all summer long when you purchase the Racetrac "FREEFILL" Cup for $6.99 at any Racetrac location. This is a great deal since you can get any drink that they offer in their extensive selection. You can check out their drink offerings at www.racetrac.com.

I was sent a $10 Racetrac gift card to pick up my own "FREEFILL" cup. Since my husband is the big liquid drinker in the family, I let him go shopping. You would be amazed by how happy this made him. He's crazy with this cup....he literally stops every morning on the way to work and every afternoon on his way home. All he has to do is run in, pour and walk out.

Racetrac would like one lucky My Baton Rouge Mommy reader to have their own "FREEFILL" cup. Want to win? Fill out the form below until Friday, June 25th at noon:
