Other Catholic Freebies
Catholics may enjoy free items they find on general Christian freebie websites like:
Large money-saving sites and sample sites might have listings for free Catholic items. Check forums at these websites for listings that users may post that do not make it onto the home page.
If you frequent a particular online or brick and mortar store, it may be worth your while to sign up for their newsletter. You might get updates on sales, coupon codes and product information. Additionally, watch for deals that would make an item free after rebate.
Donations and Subscriptions
Just because a website is a religious one does not mean you should let your guard down. Beware of scams and fraudulent websites that are only phishing for your personal information. As previously mentioned, magazine freebies often involve a subscription offer, so be sure to cancel. Some music download sites may be the same.
Because many of the websites and organizations spend their own funds to produce, buy and mail the freebies out, they may ask for a donation. Use a secure form of payment, like PayPal, or mail them a check, if you wish to donate. Remember that a donation is optional. Consider donating to groups from whom you frequently receive freebies.
Grow Your Faith
Growing in your Catholic faith does not mean your wallet has to shrink. Find plenty of free support services and resources that will help you create a more meaningful relationship with God and Jesus.
