Would you like a chance to win a $20AUD gift certificate to the Pickleberrypop shop? Well, in a little over 15 days, you can! Have you heard of a site named Freegle (previously called FreeStuffDay)? Freegle is a unique and exciting website that gives you an opportunity to win free products, from all sorts of different companies, and one of them is Pickleberrypop!

Trying to win free products is pretty easy. First, you need to simply register at the site. Then, by clicking on the tab Products I Could Get For Free, you will see all the products on offer. Products are released at different times and you will notice a countdown timer that lets you know exactly when a product will become available to be claimed. When the countdown timer for a product reaches zero, all members will have the opportunity to claim that product.

There are two ways to win free products. When you click on a product image or product name, you will be taken to that product’s description page. On this page, you will see a lot more detail on the product and a red countdown timer. Your opportunity to win comes when that timer reaches 0d 00h 00m 00s. For some products, it will be a game of speed, when the timer reaches zero, you will be asked a random question in the description page. Submit your answer and if you are quick enough, you will be a winner. For other products, you will be required to bid points – these can be earned by answering questions and surveys that are displayed intermittently on the product description pages, or various other ways.

You can tell which way a product can be won by its colour code:

So register at Freegle today to become familiar, and keep an eye on our free offer!

*** Some products are set to go off in a little over 1 hour from the time of this post, so if you haven’t got points yet, go for the yellow ones! Quick! ***
