On Monday February 2nd in 2015, between 4 and 7 pm local time, Yogurtland will be offering free yogurt and toppings. The offer is valid at participating locations only. The email does not provide further details on the promotion. If you have a busy Yogurtlandia near you, expect a zoo because many like free. On the other hand, if there is a new location, or at a not-so-busy area, you may be able to breeze in and out. Also working in favor of the free-fans, February is typically quite cold, so not everyone would be motivated to eat frozen yogurt, even if it’s free.
Free from Google Play: Gravity (HD movie) and Steve Aoki album
Google Play is back with another round of freebies. First up, Steve Aoki’s mp3-album “Neon Future” is free for a limited time. It has a total of 12 tracks with a 49 minute run time.
Next up, a movie, and a big and recent one! Gravity in HD! That’s the one with Sandra Bullock. For this one, you may have to follow the link from your Google Play e-mail to get it for free, because if you visit the movie’s Google Play page directly it shows a $10 price. If you have a Google Play account, it means you also have an email associated with it. So check there and look for the Google Play email announcing this offer. You must grab it before 1/30/15, but don’t wait until the last minute, sometimes these things end earlier.
Chipotle January 26 offer: buy sofrita, get free item later
January 26 in 2015 is an important date to remember (deal wise) at participating Chipotle stores. If you purchase a Sofrita burrito on that date, you can get a free burrito of your choice at a later date by showing them your Jan-26 soffrita receipt. Sofritas are their soy-based meat substitute, and it is a bit on the spicy side, so you may want to add fresh salsa and cheese and cream to un-spice it (if you are not big on spicy).

HBO Preview on AT&T Uverse: January 9 to 11 (2015)
If you have AT&T Uverse TV service, HBO is having another weekend preview, from January 9-11 (Friday AM to Sunday PM) in 2015, to celebrate the start of their new TV series “Togetherness”, along with the return of Girls and other half hour HBO original shows (which is often when premium cable networks offer free previews). Also participating in this promotion is Cinemax which is slowly but steadily developing its own line of original TV shows, albeit not at the HBO level.
UPDATE: Showtime is now running ads during commercial breaks on Uverse saying they too will have a free preview (SD and HD) at the same time, Friday through Sunday night.
[DEAD] Vudu offers lots of 99c movie rentals
This limited time promotion for January 2015 expired…
ORIGINAL POST (EXPIRED OFFER)
If you plan to watch a lot of movies in the next 30 days or so, Vudu has a 99-cent movie rental promotion, with 100 different movies of diverse interest participating. Obviously they don’t have the latest, you can’t possibly expect to find Guardians of the Galaxy for a 99c rental, but they have some well-known movies, such as American Psycho, Stomp the Yard, Ghost, Flatliners, Point Blank, Top Gun, Kill Team and more.
I don’t know when this promotion expires. Once you rent a movie online, you have 30 days to start watching it and once you start watching it, you typically have 24-48 hours to finish it (varies by movie). If you don’t start watching it within 30 days, you lose the chance to watch it (but sadly they don’t give you a refund).
Speaking of Vudu, they are offering the first episode of season one for FREE from a select few new TV series [updated link with October 2016 shows]. The selection changes over time as new shows come in. The free pilots are available only for a limited time, but once you get them, you can watch them forever.
Kindle First choices for January 2015 are up: now you can get two free
One of the least well-known benefits of an Amazon Prime membership is the Kindle First benefit. Every calendar month, four pre-release e-books are available. Before, as a Prime member, you were allowed to select one of them for free, and read it right away, a month before the rest of the world can read them. But for January 2015, you are allowed to get TWO of these four e-books for FREE! It is nice when a benefit expands instead of retracting. The selections change every month.
For January 2015, here are the four selections:
- “Everything Burns” by Vincent Zandri (Thriller)
- “Miramont’s Ghost” by Elizabeth Hall (Historical Fiction)
- “Flirting with Felicity” by Gerri Russell (Contemporary Romance)
- “Heart Collector” by Jacques Vandroux, Wendeline A. Hardenberg (Mystery)
Happy e-reading 🙂
[DEAD] 5oz Tattle Tea Leaves for under $6 (two flavors; Add-On program)
This limited time sale ended as of 1/5/15 check…

8.82oz ESP Emporium China Green Rose Tea Leaves for $3
If you like to try teas from different companies, and be at the forefront of exploration (translation: it has no customer reviews), for just $3, you can get this 8.82oz of ESP Emporium China Green Rose Congu Tea. These are tea leaves, not tea bags! A picture of the tea leaves and the outer package is included at the Amazon product page. It has just two ingredients, tea leaves and rose petals per the picture of the package over there. There is a limit of ten per customer.
However, it’s not all rosy (pardon the pun), because of the low price, this is part of the Amazon Add-On program, which means, you need to place an order of $25 or more before Amazon allows you to buy it. This restriction applies to Prime members as well. You could get to $25+ with 8 of these, but given the lack of reviews, it is perhaps a better idea to simply add one of these to an order of $25 or more. If you like it, then you can stock up.
