Free Hallmark greeting card at Wal-Mart
Hallmark’s new Connections greeting card line is now available at Wal-Mart and they’re offering to send you a free card. Looks like they’re trying to lower the price to compete with online and digital greeting card services, so this new collection of Hallmark Cards start at 44 cents. Cheers to Hallmark! Now if Wal-Mart could use its volume buying power to lower the cost of postage…

Review: Vocalpoint
If you’re brand nerd like me, consider joining Vocalpoint, a community for women that provides valuable and interesting insights about new products, surveys, daily tips, articles, and coupons/samples–sponsored by Proctor & Gamble.
I’ve been a member since Sept 2008 and I’ve received some very cool envelopes of goodies from them, including Starkist tuna, Crest toothpaste, Kashi whole-grain waffles, Rice Crispies and Kashi cereal–which included a free sample, a coupon for a free box of Kashi cereal, and five $2 off coupons to share with friends. The other day, I received a bifold postcard about Bounce Dryer Bars, which included a coupon for $2.50 off (which I think makes it free) and three $1.50 off coupons to share with friends.
The Vocalpoint panel is easy to join–they’re looking for active moms that talk often to their friends about products. When they send you free items, their hope is that you’ll try it, you’ll like it and you’ll tell your friends. I’m constantly amazed how generous Vocalpoint is with their samples and coupons. Seriously, stuff comes like every month.. its made my trip to the mailbox so exciting!

Free shipping at Old Navy
Free shipping at Old Navy is as easy as entering the SHIPFREE promotional code at checkout now through Aug. 26. You can stack this code with:
Since FatHeadDog has placed herself on a mortatorium on new clothing purchases, here are 
some good buys that I can purchase vicariously through you.
Women’s Stretch Crew-Neck Tees $10 (reg. $14.50): The oldnavy.com exclusive stretch tees which are 95% cotton/5% spandex, hold its shape and color much better than the perfect tees (100% cotton).
Women’s Stretch V-Neck Tees $10 (reg. $14.50): Same goes for these stretch tees, which are great wear to work staples. The v-neck isn’t too low for the workplace and pairs well with dress pants.

More free samples
Like I’ve mentioned before, Wal-Mart offers great samples that–unlike others–I know will show up in my mailbox quickly and every time.
Right now, Wal-Mart wants to keep you up all night with a sample and coupon for No-Doz and a free 20-count package of Nicorette quit smoking gum. If the nicotine doesn’t settle right, try some Prilosec OTC, which if you frequent this Wal-Mart site, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for this free acid reflux medicine.
Now only if Wal-Mart offered a free bottle of wine and a couple of melatonin.

Burts Bees free sample
One wide-eyed night, when FatHeadDog’s pup was just a few months old and it was my turn to take the 2am feeding, I had an idea. I’d been scouring various baby sites for free samples and coupons, and had found great responses from companies like Similac, Enfamil, Nestle GoodStart and others. Some of the baby freebies came from existing sample programs, and some came from just emailing the company to ask for coupons or samples to try their product.
So, bored and bleary eyed at 1 in the morning, I started emailing all my favorite brands to beg ask for loot. Of V-8, Campbells, Huggies, Burts Bees, Nivea and Gillette, only Burts Bees and Gillette said no. Gillette said they already offer high-dollar coupons in the newspaper, which is true. Burts Bees just didn’t offer coupons and samples like that quite yet.
Well, they’ve come around with $1off coupons in the Sunday newspapers and free samples on their site. And I’m so glad they do because this brand was my first foray into natural, organic products. Really good stuff if you haven’t tried it yet.

Review: Cubed meat, it’s what’s for dinner
Just like my mother used to follow me out the door with a hairbrush to fluff my big Texas hair, my mother now thrusts prepared cubed meat into my hands whenever FatHeadDog leaves her house. The reason? “It’s something easy you can fix for yourselves when y’all get home from work and are having dinner with the baby,” she says with best intentions. You mean Eggos aren’t well-balanced?
She was talking about these new brands of prepared turkey, ham or chicken breast strips in the lunchmeat aisle. One such brand is Buddig Fix Quix, who coincidentally asked me to write about their product. Good thing FatHead Mother had already sent me home with these Fix Quix and a few other prepared refrigerated meat entrees. Now, I didn’t sprinkle the grilled chicken breast over salad as suggested. Um, FatHead Family ate them straight from the package like meat candy… is that wrong?
All in all, not bad. Baby got his protein. If you want to try them (and you’re in one of only like three areas they’re sold: Texas, Arizona and St. Louis), here’s a $1off coupon.

Hail to the Radiohead
Momentary departure from household savings tips on FatHeadDog, but here’s a new, free download from a little known UK band called Radiohead: These Are My Twisted Words by Radiohead. Note from their site (but you have to read this in your head with a heavy Brit accent):
So here’s a new song, called ‘These Are My Twisted Words’.We’ve been recording for a while, and this was one of the first we finished.
We’re pretty proud of it.There’s other stuff in various states of completion, but this is one we’ve been practicing, and which we’ll probably play at this summer’s concerts. Hope you like it.
This sweet poster is for sale at their site as well. Please give them money so they will continue to play music.
