I recently e-mailed fast car magazine asking for a few stickers/transfers free-of-charge
They did send me loads of stickers... (for free)
But they also sent...(you should of seen my face opening the package!)
*The February 2008 edition of the magazine with a free DVD
*Clubland 11 CD
*Clubland x-treme hardcore 4 CD
*Urban Groove 3-disc spec' edition CD
*Ministry of sound annual 2007 CD
Now for a free e-mail request for stickers (not a competition entry!) I ended up with a fair few quids worth of blag! completely unexpected! The magazine alone is £5! the CD's combined cost is approx £45 (i've checked this using online CD shops), theres at least 12 hours worth of music here, plus the Fuel dvd.
I ONLY ASKED FOR A FEW FREE STICKERS 
...I've also been writing to various other car modifiying companies asking for free stickers/transfers and i've built up a big collection of Corbeau/luke/street-glow/Bosal/recaro/toyo/blistein transfers/stickers.
The Toyo stickers cost about £2.50 in halfords, they (Toyo) sent me a tenners worth easy. (nicer and bigger than the halfords ones as well) all for free!.
The moral of this is that ''IF YOU DONT ASK YOU DONT GET!''
A lot of the companies i've emailed are based in the states and its costing them to send the goodies!, aint costing me a penny!.
So think of a brand/make you like and e-mail them asking (politely) for free stuff!
Thought i'd just let you know that sometimes things really are for free!
Thanks for reading.
Dan
PS, big big big big big thank you Fast Car, especially MIDGE!
Im off now to e-mail nissan asking for a free Skyline!
