Everyone likes a good freebie, right? And there are constantly freebies available. From free food to free hygiene products and everything in between. You just have to know where to look. While some freebies come and go quickly, other freebies have become an annual event that customers look forward to.
I have rounded up some of the top annual freebies and created a quick reference guide full of year of freebies. This list is, of course, subject to change should an annual freebie be canceled, but I tried to stick to freebies that have a long-standing track record.
If I missed one of your favorite annual freebies, please let me know. I’d love to include it.
