January can feel like a very long month after the
excesses of Christmas, but Discount Insurance are here to share their top tips
on how to enjoy some treats for free!
From eating out to keeping fit, discover how to
live a jam-packed lifestyle without spending a penny.
Free gym
Look out for free one day and one week passes from
big names like The Gym, LA Fitness and others – you can often try the classes
too.
Beauty treatments
Visit Salon Guinea Pig
for free treatments by trainees, including waxing, semi-permanent make up,
facials and even tattoos.
Cups of tea
You can claim a daily cup of tea in Ikea and
Waitrose when you sign up for a free loyalty card. You can get occasional
freebies at McDonald’s by downloading their app and at John Lewis by signing up
for a loyalty card and waiting from them to post vouchers.
Massages
If you’re in London you can get a free sports
massage from a trainee at the North London School of Sports Massage as part of
their classes or exams.
Clothes
Find a swishing party or join a swishing website
and swap all your clothes and accessories, with no money changing hands.
Swap
in the City UK, Swap
Style and Swishing
are some examples of organised swishing events but it’s just as fun to organise
your own with friends!
Free learning
FutureLearn
is just one of many programmes offering university courses online for absolutely
nothing. You don’t get a degree or certificate at the end but you do get access
to some top educational resources.
There’s also thevirtualinstructor.com
and free-online-art-classes.com
for teaching yourself to become an artist, and there are free apps such as Duolingo and Busuu to help with learning a new language.
Free samples
Learn to write letters and emails complimenting
businesses and you’ll soon have sample after sample arriving, as well as money
off coupons.
If you have a blog or are prolific on social
media, even better. Brands are keen to spread the word about their products so
they’re likely to send you free stuff if they know you’ll write about it.
Free travel
Get free Uber credit when you refer friends and
only use the Uber app when you have credit.
Volunteer as crew on board a private boat via
Crewseekers, Findacrew or Crewbay and build up your sailing experience from
there. Without experience you won’t get paid, but you won’t have to pay for the
trip either!
Pets
Have a pet for the day for free by volunteering to
dog-walk or play with cats at rescue centres of the RSPCA. Or, use the Petsitters
& Dogwalkers’ section of Gumtree.
Eat out
Become a mystery shopper with Gapbuster, TNS Global or MarketForce. There are other mystery shopping companies you can join,
but be sure to check them on MSPA (Mystery Shopper Providers Association) to
see if they’re legitimate.
You’ll be tasked with visiting restaurants,
enjoying a free meal and giving the venue a review for market research.
The more complete your services, the more jobs the
company will give you and hence the more free food!
