FreebieShark.com is mainly a money saving blog that focuses on freebies that has been around since 2009. FreebieShark also posts sweepstakes, instant win games, coupons and deals besides freebies. We followed FreebieShark over the course of 3 years and we are glad to be able to review it for you.
PROS:
- Updated everyday with lots of freebies and other ways to save money.
- Deals are usually straight to the point.
- Easy to follow posts.
- Never misleads you in anyway like many other blogs do.
- Not too many advertisements on the site.
- Updated everyday with lots of freebies and giveaways.
- Text Alerts feature is awesome. If there is a hot time-sensitive freebie, you'll get a text message when it is available to make sure you never miss out on any great freebie. Convenient for those on-the-go.
- Legit freebies. FreebieShark checks and confirms with the company that the freebie is legit before posting it so no one gets spammed.
- The sweepstakes page is amazing if you are into sweepstakes and instant win games. Updated daily with new giveaways. A lot of work goes into maintaining that page.
- Gives credit when credit is due. This is huge because lots of other bloggers just steal content without linking back, but FreebieShark is always linking back. Awesome.
- VERY friendly. Have any questions? Ask away and you'll get an answer. Jason from FreebieShark is really friendly.
- Great community of people on Facebook. Probably one of the best.
- If you are on Instagram, FreebieShark is probably one of the best accounts to follow. They highlight all of the deals and freebies so you can see them while browsing Instagram.
There are a few minor issues with FreebieShark.
- During the Holidays, FreebieShark posts more online deals than usual and it might get annoying if you are new to the blog at that time since FreebieShark is a mainly a freebie website. You can browse just the "freebies" category to get around this.
- If you like to coupon, you'll see that FreebieShark posts a lot of Target deals. Deals for Walmart and the drugstores are also posted, but this blog seems to favor Target and it might be an issue if you don't live near a Target.
- Layout is becoming outdated and needs a refresh. Site loads slow at times, but I am not sure if this is related to the layout.
- Whenever there is a hot offer text alert, the site loads slow and is sometimes hard to access the blog for a few minutes. Can be frustrating if there's a very hot freebie you want to request.
- Beginner guides for requesting freebies and learning how to coupon can be more in-depth. Seems like those sections haven't been updated in a while.

Straight up the best freebie site out there. I recommend Freebie Shark to everyone I know... all the others spam you too much with their affiliate links and other offers that pay them to post. Jason keeps it real and really is doing this to help everyone. Sure, he is probably making money doing it, but he is doing it the right way.
Love Freebie Shark. Hands down the best money saving site out there. Their IWG & Sweepstakes page is phenomenal...best way to enter sweepstakes
Keep up the great work Jason...love freebieshark
I was following FreebieMom/Couponclipinista but then I realized she was posting non-stop spam. Switched over to Freebieshark and a few other sites and it is much better. great blog with no spam
under rated website...probably the best freebie site out there
Thanks for the Information, I really appreciate it. I'm switching to Freebieshark. Enough of the lies and deception from Freebie Mom.
