# Mommy Wants Freebies > Real freebies for moms, verified this week — baby samples, birthday clubs, kids-eat-free deals, and the scams to skip. No hype, just free. Written by Paige Delgado. I'm Paige — mom of two (6 and 3) in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and a former retail assistant manager, which means I spent years on the other side of the promo table and know exactly how these offers work from the inside. My rule here is simple: if I can't verify a freebie this week, it's not on the list. No hustle-hype, no 'girl math,' and I'll tell you straight when a famous freebie is dead or has quietly turned into a data-grab. Every offer on this site is verified against its live signup page at the time of writing and stamped with the verification date; hub pages are re-verified at least every 90 days. ## Baby Freebies - [MySimilac Rewards: What the Points Buy](https://mommywantsfreebies.com/posts/mysimilac-rewards/): MySimilac Rewards is free to join, but 35 points is further than it sounds.
