Do you hold off on an order till the free stuff is better?

Contributor: Crystal1 Crystal1
Back when we only had one choice for the freebie, I'd sometimes put my order off a day to see if it changed if the gift was something I already had or wasn't interested in.

I have only gotten the free gift once, every other order I have forgotten about the free gifts.

I just order whatever I'm going to get. If I don't like the free stuff, I don't get it. But usually I'll give whatever they have available a try, I've gotten some awesome things that I really thought were just going to be a cheap toy I'd never use!

NO, I'm too impatient for that. The free item makes no difference to me.
Being overseas I can't just make tiny orders here and there. So when I get the erge and 99% of the items I want are in stock - I pounce!

Same here! I use coupons also on orders, so you can not do both. I would rather save then get free toy.

The free gifts are great, but definitely not worth waiting on larger more alluring items for.

I do, because it lets me add up more points daily and I don't want a t shirt i have one, i just usually save up a ton of points and keep saving; since march, all I really get on here is my free monthly EF assignment and when I find a good free sponsored assignment I get that too during the month, but yep I almost always wait until the free gift is a good one because I personally review EVERYTHING I order on here. That's how I have so many reviews, some were free assignments but 1/2 of it was orders and free gifts.

I am at $77.34 now in points, I am excited and I have a review under way, so keep on the lookout for it, I should get it in the mail today

No I usually do not, but I do try and order quicker when there is a free gift that I really want!

I didn't even consider this. lol. Since I shop sales, it wouldn't make sense to hold onto one though.

Patience is a virtue I do not have. Also, some of the promotions are a lot better than the free stuff (not much beats 20-50% off).

No, I usually order what I want, when I want. But I do make sure to check on the freebies, cause a pack of wipes is a nice thing to have. I've gotten the handcuffs as well as silly surprize to hubby tho

I order whenever I'm able, not because of the free stuff I might get. Meh.

Depends on how much I want what is in my cart.

If I'm going to place an order I don't wait. Some of the things I want might go out of stock so I don't want to wait around. If it's something I like and think I'll actually use then I'll add it to my cart. If it's useless to me or if I don't like it I don't add it to my cart at all! The longest I would wait to see if the freebie changes is just a day. I'm impatient.

No, I won't put off an order because of the free gifts. If there's something I want, I'll order it if I have the points/money for it, even if I really don't like what's available as a gift.

I will, however, place an order sooner than I would have otherwise if I like the looks of the free gift.

I order when I want it, sometimes the free gift is a perk, other times I should have passed on it lol but sometimes I even forget to add it.

I like to think I will.... but generally I can't handle the wait.

Nope. Im to impatient. Luckily though when I did go to put my order in it had changed to a better gift and it was an extra 25% off on some of the gear I ordered. Double score!!!

Nope, I usually keep an eye out for the sales instead.

Considering a lot of what I usually plan on ordering goes out of stock pretty often I tend to order as soon as I can so I don't miss the item.
The freebies are just something I add so I'll have more to review later, I do like them though, they're usually sort of cute. ^_^

I just wish I had privacy enough to not need two months to get to know an item well enough to do a proper review because I really enjoy writing them.

Sometimes I will hold off a day or two until something better opens up if it is down to the shirts or the wipes... I can't use either of those.

Nope. I usually don't care about the free stuff and only add it in if I am buying something for someone, or plan on giving it away.

At the moment I am torn between Form 4 and Matryoshka, and am a little glad I am torn. Because soon the EdenLit book will be out to order!!!! And I am waiting on that. I don't know if it will be a free gift or not, but still!

While I appreciate the free gift, I don't wait for new gifts to be offered.

Sometimes, the percent off sales make it more worthwhile.
