Ever received anything for free on the internet that really had value?

Hello people. I always see many people offering things for 'free'. in the end it always costs money. Have you ever received anything for free on the internet that really had value?

I received three cool things for free today actually. There are a lot of Amazon sellers that are looking to boost their rankings by having people buy their products in exchange for a refund and a review. If you search around on Facebook you can find groups that do this and I'm sure there are other places to find offers like this as well.

Yes, my parents paid internet for me 15 years ago, that was the best free thing I`ve ever received.

Yoo u right ! And still some people have their parents pay internet for them but they can't make something useful of it

One time I ordered a big bottle of brasso (brass polish) from eBay and the seller sent me two. When I offered to return it they said I could keep it.

Bitcoin

Back in the day you could get free Bitcoin in several sites

Too bad I didn't think it'd ever be worth anything and so I never bothered with faucets which were everywhere.

Add up the price of all the online courses in the world. Now imagine it free information that you can find anywhere on the web.

That’s how much our free information is worth if there are actually people buying those courses.

It's called a funnel, they hook you with free shit and try to sell you stuff as you move down the funnel.

Does good free information exist outside funnels? Of course. But you gotta know how to Google stuff, or else other people are Googling it for you, slapping some fancy names on it, and then trying to sell you the info they curated.

Peace of mind.

I've read a lot of information online. It has basically molded me into the person I am now because through stand up comedy & direct information, my sense of humor is deeply dark.

Define "received"?

I received free graphics from the internet by downloading them from various forums. Then I had a guy wanting to buy graphics, sold him all of those graphics for $100 bucks (there was A LOT of shit there).

So, yes, I did receive something that had value. But I didn't receive it, like, it didn't exactly fall into my lap. I hunted for it I guess.

I got bunch of pc parts, some mobile phones and gadgets from various companies around the world. I have a youtube channel, that is why.

Lots of them. One of them is WordPress. Now I'm earning a living from my WordPress blogs.

I just remembered that I entered some sort of class action lawsuit many years ago for kicks and got a 4-pack of Red Bull delivered to my doorstep for free. So add that to the tally.
