Fresh Step cat litter has introduced a reward program called Paw Points. For each bag of litter that you buy, you earn points towards products ranging from free litter to calendars to pet medicine. A 21 lb. bag of Fresh Step earns 35 points, and simply signing up and completing a short survey on the website earned an additional 30 points.

Back when we had four cats, I could have easily earned this fab cat chair. Of course, not one of my cats would actually sit on it. They never did anything they were supposed to do, but I guess, isn’t that part of the definition of cats?

So, if you have to buy cat litter, you might as well get some free stuff while you’re at it! Unfortunately, they do not have someone who will come and clean the litter box for you.

In the next few days we are going to be running a giveaway for a cookie bouquet basket from Cookies by Design.

I will have all the details and the official entry post up soon, but I’m so excited I just wanted to let everyone know to be on the lookout for it.

Here is a photo of the basket we will be giving away (I’m still waiting on all the specifics, but this is close):

ToysRUs is giving away free Thomas Trains with coupon through July 5, 2008 (up to a $12.99 value).

Most of the major deals forums are printing this link: print coupon; which you need to be ready to print from right away because you can only access it once.

Thanks to Thirfty Jinxy, there is another direct link to the coupon that you do not have to print immediately: print coupon.

Jake is going to love this! He just recently started playing with his Thomas trains again.

You know the products….the ones you see if you happen to be an insomniac or a Mom who is up in the middle of the night and has the TV on. They are called “As Seen on TV” products and they actually have a tester panel where you can sign up and possibly be selected to test their products. This is similar to free paid surveys but usually will just involve you getting to keep the product you test and likely will not have a monetary award to go along with it. I just signed up myself, so I really do not know.

Become an “As Seen on TV” product tester.

From their site:

Throughout the month our team will select an item(s) and send it out for testing, FREE of CHARGE. We will randomly select an item(s), depending on the nature and category of the item(s). Applicants who register may have the opportunity to be Product Testers.

You will not pay a single penny for any item(s) you receive, and best of all as a Product Tester you get to keep the item(s) for FREE.

The only requirement we have is when you receive the item(s) you fill out a simple questionnaire. The questionnaire helps determined whether an item is worth manufacturing and marketing, consumers acceptance, changes needed in design, and/or if it should be made available for sale or continued being offered. That’s all there is to becoming a Product Tester.

To be eligible for any of the promotions (including without limitation the product testing program), you must be of legal age to form a binding contract with AsSeenOnTV and a legal resident of the United States with a valid email and mailing address. If you do not meet these requirements, you will not be eligible for any of the promotions and we ask that you do not complete the registration process.

Good luck!
