[quote name='dungonmaster316']how do yall find out and get all these kool stuff, am i missing something epic??????????????/ help me[/QUOTE]

Really depends on where you live and how much work you're willing to put in.

I pick up the free newspapers every morning here in NYC. I scan them strictly for free promotions. Mainly movie tickets, plays and amusement park stuff.

I use Googie/ig and have an app that scans Craigslist for me by my zip for the things I'm interested in:

Comics
Books
Bikes (I usually end up getting them and either reselling/donating for a tax write off or give them to ppl I know that need them.)
Computers *same as above*
Statues
Weapons
Musical Instruments (These I either keep for my family and/or donate them to the local schools and non-profits for a tax write off)
Model Rocketry
Lego Mindstorms

I'm tapped into any and all coupon systems in my area and spend about 30 to 45 mins a week clipping and printing coupons for food. On average I can take a grocery of $250 to $300 a month and lower it down to under $50 or less.

Here is an OK guide on how to get that started - http://www.livingwellspendingless.com/beginners-guide-to-coupons/thebeginners-guide-to-coupons-2/

Also because NYC Park and Club circuit it always competing for patrons you can use that to your advantage and have a free event lined up every weekend for the family or strictly for the adults.

Been rocking like this since the 80's though so it will take some time but after while you will automatically draw this stuff to you. There is very little I pay for that is full price these days.
 
Received my money clip from DailySteals.com

How and why did he give you all that crap?
 
[quote name='IIBlazer']How and why did he give you all that crap?[/QUOTE]

lol I couldn't tell you exactly WHY he did, but I just started talking to him about stuff coming out.

He was there to add promo cards to the existing Kinect bundles (Both the Kinect by itself or the 360 bundles), started talking about how I had to pay more for my Kinect, but I didn't get any of the free games they come with now and.... Voilà!
 
[quote name='Gram']X-Factor poster arrived today.
What am I going to do with this.[/QUOTE]

When I get free posters of suck stuff...I give it to the kids, turn it over to the white side and use it for arts and craft. If it's double sided, I tape it brick and return to sender.
 
Beats, Rhymes & Life: "The Travels Of A Tribe Called Quest" from a member on here who did a giveaway for following him on Twitter. Cheers!

I just got a Gears of War 3 COG Coaster set from the Gamestop Go Commando thing a while back. Didn't even know that I won, it just randomly came in the mail today. Still, meh, wish I got something better.
 
NBA 2K12 for PS3 from House Party. Got the MJ cover! :D
I might even give him the NBA 2k12 poster that I'm expecting soon. Also from HouseParty

Btw I don't know if I mentioned it here, but I got a few free posters from Movember. Expecting to receive random swag from them later on. They said the donation box I ordered was was on back order, so i guess the swag stuff is gonna arrive with the donation box, or at least I hope so. gotta raise awareness for prostate cancer, bro!


EDIT: Does anyone know the trade in value of the game for GameStop? Gonna need the money for a pre-order I made.

Came packed in the plastic that hides the cover. I'm not sure if I can even use it. Did anyone else receive a card?
