Facebook is great for connecting with old friends, cyber-stalking exes and wasting time. But it’s also great for saving money. There are freebies and exclusive deals all over this social networking site. Here are ways Facebook can be a frugal person’s dream.
Free Christmas Gifts - Facebook can be a source of great (and completely free) Christmas gifts. Like this one—become a fan of Walgreens by Friday, October 2 and you’ll receive a free 5X7 photo book. You will have to pay a small shipping fee, but this would be a great gift for plenty of people on your holiday shopping list.
Free Songs for Your iPod - Become a fan of iTunes on Facebook and you’ll have access to lots of free music. Right now you can get the 15-song Austin City Limits 2009 Sampler for free, but the free songs change regularly so you can always get free fresh music to fill up your iPod.
Free Beauty Products - Plenty of businesses offer up Facebook freebies. Herbal Essences is holding the Gorgeous Giveaway for Facebook Fans. Once you become a fan, RSVP to the Herbal Essences Gorgeous Giveaway and come back to the page on October 2 for the details. You’ll get a chance to try any Herbal Essences shampoo or conditioner for free.
Free Food - Restaurants love to give away food on Facebook to their fans. Become a fan of “Woody” on Facebook and if he makes it to a million fans by September 30 everyone will get a coupon for a free burger at TGI Fridays. Once you become a fan, make sure you click the “register” tab and enter your email address in order to get your free burger coupon.
Free Sweepstakes Entries - There are lots of opportunities to enter exclusive contests and sweepstakes on Facebook. Become a fan of Dave & Buster’s for a chance to win a trip for two to New York City. While you’re at it, become a fan of Victoria’s Secret for a chance to win two tickets to the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Five other Facebook winners will get $100 Victoria’s Secret gift cards.
