FREE customized luggage tags from KLM (Limited stocks)



*Maximum of one set, two tags per person.

The website initially indicates the availability of the following countries:  Australia, Hong Kong, India, Philippines and Singapore.

But when I try to look at the home page again, I don't see the list of countries where it is available.
Maybe read the Terms&Condition for more details.

Use IE browser. I encounter issues when using Firefox.

It says delivery takes about 3 weeks. I haven't received mine so I cannot guarantee that this FREEBIES is valid.

(FREE T-shirt) Famous People Vote Too





Excerpts from the website:  http://www.famouspeoplevotetoo.com/free-tshirt

=================

More than 1.4 million Australians are ‘missing’ from the electoral roll, with younger Australians aged 18 - 39 years making up about 70 per cent of the total.

Famous People Vote Too is a new initiative created by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) aimed at raising awareness of the need to enrol or update details in time for the next federal election which is expected to take place later this year.

Australian television personalities, sports stars and comedians are lending their support to the campaign to show that ALL Australians, including celebrities, should enrol to vote so that they can have their say in the upcoming election.


=================

Where do you think they get the funds to provide this promotion?  hmm..... let me think - TAX payers?

If you are paying TAX, I guess this isn't FREE after all.
