24 Things That Are Always Free With Coupons (& Without)
1. Air Wick Warmers
There are often coupons in the newspaper to save $1.00 off Air Wick Oil Warmers. Walmart has them priced around 94¢, which means free Air Wick Warmers for you!
The coupons are put out to encourage shoppers to buy the scented oils that go with them.
But:
If you already use them and your warmer breaks, it is definitely a plus to be able to get a new one for free.
2. Allergy/Headache Medicine
If you have allergies, you already know how expensive the medications can be. So, being able to get some for free can be a big perk of couponing.
Often times there are coupon deals where you can score allergy medicines (like Allegra & Nasacort) in smaller counts for completely F-R-E-E!

3. Bath & Body Works Products
Bath & Body Works has lots of sales though out the year. There are often opportunities to get a free full size products with a purchase!
To get these freebies, you’ll need to be on their mailing list.
They send out coupons for free products and for other nice savings offers (like $10 off a $30 purchase).
You can sign up for mailer coupons in-store; this is the only way to sign up for these coupons that I know of. If you sign up for emails here, exclusive email coupons are sometimes sent, too.
4. Candy
This is one of my favorite things that are always free with coupons! Candy is always massively discounted the day after a holiday.
And, if you wait a little longer the discounts on holiday items will get better.
Take advantage of these sales by using coupons. Coupons + already low prices = free candy, score!
Additionally:
There are often deals to get single serve candy bars for free or almost free.
5. CoverGirl Make Up
This brand of make up goes on sale routinely and there are new coupons to save on it all the time. This means free, or super cheap, CoverGirl products SUPER OFTEN!
This is the perfect way to support a make up addiction.

6. Dog & Cat Treats/Food
Believe it or not, there are ways to save on pet treats! If your pet isn’t picky about brands then you should be capitalizing on free treat deals.
Even Better:
Every so often there are coupon deals to get free pet food, usually the smaller size bags, but still a nice freebie!
PetSmart and Petco send out nice savings offer coupons and FREE pet food coupons in emails to rewards members, too. It’s free to join!
7. Emergen-C
Out of all the things that are free with coupons, this one is probably the one that is most appreciated during flu season. Target will run promotions where they offer a free gift card when you buy a certain amount of select products.
The small boxes of Emergen-C are typically included in these offers which equals free Emergen-C after coupons!

8. Gluten Free Products
It’s kind of hard to believe that gluten-free Products would be included in a list of things that are always free with coupons!
But:
Surprisingly, there are quite a few coupon deals where you can score Gluten Free Products for free. Or if you can’t get it for free, you can get it for a much lower price than retail!
The brand I see most often is Van’s, but there are deals for Udi and Ian’s as well.
