About

My name is Valerie.

Valerie Sweeps if you like.

Welcome to my journey towards the Free!  Hopefully you have already started by reading my FREE 101 Guide, and found some inspiration in the 101 FREE Things list. Be sure to browse my tips and reviews for my favorite Reward Sites programs, Swag Bucks, and SuperPoints as well. If you have already signed up under me for either of these, thank you! Please feel free to message me at any time with your questions.

To follow the latest 100% legit sweepstakes, contests, giveaways, and freebies as I find them on the web, then check out my Twitter feed. Due to the high volume of things I could post, I find using Twitter is much easier. I blog whenever I feel like. Not sure exactly how often that will be.

I update all of the Reward Sites pages each week to reflect how many prizes I have redeemed in each. If you have any questions about anything on this website, please use the contact link above.


5 Random Things About Valerie

1) I am a crazy cat lady. Never met a crazy cat I didn't fall in love with. I am also a fan of cat videos. Yes, I do believe the internet was created just for cat videos. Feel free to share your favorites at any time!

2) I try not to take life too seriously. When I do I turn to Number 1, turn off the computer, call a friend or go for a walk. I believe laughter can cure many ills.

3) Autumn is my favorite season. Mmm sweaters, scarves, but not yet cold enough for numb cheeks! The gorgeous changing leaves always make my heart sing.

4) I live in the United States. I do love to travel, but the USA is home sweet home.

5) I am the worst speller on the planet. I guarantee there will be typos on this site! Forgiveness is appreciated, as are gentle comments about them.



Thank you for stopping by! I wish you success on your own journey.
