Default Free Stocking Stuffers

Anyone besides myself doing all freebees for stocking stuffers? I have been saving them throughout the year-most came from posts on this site. So far, each daughter has chapstick, lotion, each a $10 Walmart gift card from MYPOINTS, soap, calander, pens, pencils, address labels, keychains, free samples of perfume. All stuff little girls like. I also just signed up for a free desk lamp-will see if I get it or not. Its from http://www.freedesklamp.com/lamp.html

Thanks for the site!

I just got started with freebies since joining this site, but so far have a few things for stockings.

I am doing mostly freebies for stocking stuffers, the only non-freebie itesm I am adding are a paperback (bought at a discount bookstore closing sale) and 1 lottery ticket per person!

Thanks Mom From Missouri about the lamp. You are so smart to collect these things through out the year.

I'm using the samples I got when I ordered skin-care products to fill gift baskets, so i guess that's a type of "freebie". But hey, I see no problem with using freebies for gifts, I think it's smart.

Also, this is not a freebie, but Target is clearing out all of their teen cosmetics in the dollar section for .50 each. I got some for dd school friends, little nail polishes, lip gloss, cute ink pens, etc.
