Get FREEBIES on Earth Day!

An article on Yahoo's Green site outlines 5 freebies, 4 sweepstakes and 6 store discounts that are being offered today (April 22) in order to celebrate Earth Day.

A lot of the user comments at the bottom of the article describe even more freebies, contests and discounts than the article.

Many of the user comments are also complaining about consumerism and the fact that coupons have to be printed to get the freebies. I offer at least two possible solutions:

1. See if you can download the coupon on your mobile phone. That way you can still bring it to the store without printing it.
2. For every coupon you print, recycle 5 pieces of paper. That way you're giving back more than you take.

Other comments suggest planting a tree for Earth Day, thankfully one of those comments says where can free seeds, but this hasn't been tested.
