Free stuff is no good!  |
|
Do you agree? Or have you got something free that was really good?
I once had a camera. I curse the day I lost it; and now, I have to save enough to get that digital camera I have my eye on. I want to take loads of pictures of my pets and my garden, and without a camera, it is impossible.
I also need loads of pictures for my blogs. Yesterday, I tried to find "free pictures" on the Internet. The pictures I came across were just awful. They seemed absolutely lifeless. No wonder they were free!
Is there any free stuff around that is really worth having?
Cheers and happy Mylotting

1. thunderstar17 (223) | 1 year ago | I look at it this way..if you are looking to find something or anything for free you cannot expect it to be high quality. Or even exactly what you want. But then again you cannot look a gift horse in the mouth.
When my boyfriend and I first moved in together 4 1/2years ago, he was having trouble keeping a job. He still had the immature mentality he had when he lived at home with his mother, thinking that if he lose a job or just decided to quit, some one would always be there to take of him until he found something else. At the time I was onnly working part time and going to college on campus full time. So it was not feasible for me to work over 30 hours/week. This resulted in us always being broke. So I swallowed my pride and went to a local food bank for help just for two months. I must add I am the pickiest eater ever....so when we got the food home, which of course was free being from a food bank, all he had to do was complain that there was not anything good for us to eat. I had to sit back and think about how to approach this with him. I had to explain if you are not paying and in need you should be happy with the hedlp you are receiving. He did not want to hear it at the time.
now that he has held a decent job for a year or two, and I finished my bachelors and I am working towards something withmy life....I try to donate anything I can to help others who are in need.
In terms of pictures did you do an image search through google? by clickingon the image tab? I can usually find decent pictures that way.
Other than that, most things are free because they are some one else's garbage, or they are not worth paying for.
Again going back to when we first moved in together...we found a free coffee table in the pennysaver. So he went and picked it up w/o me...BIG MISTAKE. It was something that should have been in a trash heap! I fixed it up real nice though, and we still use it today. You can always tweak crummy free things to make them look nice.

ktosea (1263) | 1 year ago | you got a good point,the stuff is good or bad do not depends on it's price or something,it's depending on what the usage if for you or for others,you may think it is trash but it may be useful for others.plus we man are creative and we can do something to make a change and make the free stuff works for us.

3. ellie333 (6793) | 1 year ago | Hi Positiveminded, This is an area where I have been very lucky in the past. It might be worth putting a wanted for the camera on your local Freecycle site as they are worldwide and I have received many items from there as well as given stuff including a brand new orthopedic bed for a neighbour as it was too firm for the wife and they needed space for another one being delivered. It is just after Christmas so maybe someone has a digital camera that has been updated in a draw somewhere. I also have received some excellent freebies from free stuff sites including a Venus womans razor, cat food puches, vouchers, shampoo, bubblebath, soap so just keep looking. Huggles. Ellie:D

| 4. dramalurve (44) | 1 year ago | In my opinion, i think not. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a free lunch. I find that at least 9 out of 10 of the free stuff are quite useless or impractical. If not, the price of the "free" stuff is included with the thing that you bought. The only usable free stuff that i remembered receiving is the kitchen ware i get from buying a tube of toothpaste.

5. mahjonggg (1366) | 1 year ago | Sometimes free stuff is good like fresh, free air and similar things. Sometimes not as - in Hungarian way - if a meat is cheap its juice is dilute. I have a free registry cleaner program. Works perfectly for me. And maybe you'll find your camera somewhere. The hope should live forever. Take care, Dear Friend,
Joe

I always wish to get free thing. But i never get it. I usually see a lot of offer in the Television, like advertisements saying that when you buy that get this free etc etc. But to buy that primary product we need a lot of money. Then how it possible to get such things. no way.

9. wolfie34 (13933) | 1 year ago | I got a free digital camera once just for filling in a basic form, I already had a digital camera but as it was free I thought why not, do as a present, I am always sceptical about free things not that they are no good but whether you get them in the first place, empty promises and all that but, no sure enough the digital camera arrived and I wrapped it up that Christmas for my cousin she was over the moon with it and she used it to take pics of her newborn son which she sent me, so we were both happy with it!
