If you like getting free stuff in the post then head on over to Matterbox and get your name down. Matterbox say that they’re a new way for “companies to talk to you by giving you real, physical things you might like to keep”. They sent out their first box towards the end of 2008, but the second edition is due out soon.

So what’s in the box? Well, it actually seems pretty good!

The first box contained items from O2, Original Source, BBC Audio, Cadbury, Harper Collins, Lovefilm and Baileys! We didn’t get this box (signed up too late) but are looking forward to seeing what’s on offer in the next edition. Matterbox is powered by The Royal Mail and the items are packaged up in a small box and are posted out to you for you to enjoy.

You can also follow Matterbox on Twitter, ideal for knowing when the next box is due or even for picking up some extra freebies. They recently gave away a £500 box of goodies as part of the London Twestival.

If you got the first Matterbox why not let us know what you thought of the freebie? And if you sign up let us know what you think too!

Matterbox – Get a Free Box of Goodies in The Post!

The Telegraph on Saturday is proving to be a worthwhile buy judging by their recent freebies! In the last couple of weeks for just £1.60, you could have picked up a box of Thorntons Chocolates and Body Shop Body Lotion free, but this week the freebie has got a lot more expensive!

Buy The Telegraph on Saturday 21st February 2009 and you’ll get a coupon entitling you to a free pashmina, worth £19.99 from Tie Rack.

You even get a choice of colours including black, cream, turquoise, rust, purple, wine, cerise pink and soft pink. So for a £1.60 you get a newspaper and a pashmina, which you can use for yourself or even as a present (who’s to know that it was a freebie from the paper)!

More details can be found at The Telegraph. Terms and conditions apply.
