About — Mommy Wants Freebies

I'm Paige Delgado — mom of two (6 and 3) in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and a former retail assistant manager, which is the part of my résumé that matters here. I spent years running promos from the other side of the counter: I know how a loyalty program is supposed to work, what a legitimate sample campaign looks like from the inside, and exactly which "free" offers exist mainly to harvest your email, your phone number, or your card. That's the lens every page on this site is written through.

The rule is simple and it's absolute: every freebie on this site is verified against its live signup page before it's listed, and it's stamped with the date I checked. Hub pages get re-verified at least every 90 days. If an offer dies, I say so. If a famous freebie has quietly become a data-grab, I say that too. You will never find offers here that want a credit card or a "shipping fee," survey-wall rewards, recruit-a-friend schemes, or any get-paid-to hype — that stuff isn't free, it's a transaction with worse terms.

Here's the drawer map: baby freebies for registry welcome boxes and brand programs (start with the verified baby samples list), birthday freebies for the clubs and their sign-up timing rules, samples & rewards for the platforms that are actually legit — and the scam checklist for everything that isn't, kids eat free & fun for the recurring free dates, and deal smarts for the evergreen mechanics of paying less.

A history note, because I believe in reading the fine print: Mommy Wants Freebies was born in 2010 as a mom-run reviews-and-giveaways blog (a review from those years is still quoted on the Hachette Book Group edition of How to Shop for Free). The original site went dark in 2013, and the domain spent years parked — including stretches where previous holders put unrelated junk on it. It's now under new stewardship, the name and the freebies mission are back, and everything you'll read here is new, written and verified from scratch. Same desk, new owner, better fine print.

A note on money: the freebies themselves always link straight to the brand's own signup page — that's the product here, and those links earn me nothing. Some posts also mention related gear with affiliate links (marked by the usual Amazon formatting); if you buy through one, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. A commission never gets an offer onto a list — verification does.
