What did you get for free in December?
I like this thread so much, decided to start one for the last month of 2008.
I can even add to it!
I got a Magic Bullet today for 550 Air Miles, arriving at my home in four weeks or less.

-2 bags of Lifesaver's Gummies

They were sold out of a lot of things I had coupons for, so I'll be returning later this week in hopes that they've restocked!

A former co-worker gave me some very nice lined black slacks that were too short for her AND a bunch of tops she can't use any more.
I had been needing a new pair of black pants and these are perfect.

We got a $25 WM gift card from my Mom yesterday. I think I'm going to use it in place of cash for groceries, take the $25 grocery money and put it with the $40 Sears gift card we got last month and get me a badly needed pair of work boots.Yippee skipeee!
