Freebie Section Note: Why links shouldn't be hotlinked
Just something to note to those people posting in the Freebies section, if you post a link like this http://www.saveland.ca/ administrators and people who have access to the records can see where the link originated from if you click on it. That means that they'll see the fact that you've arrived to the site from a freebie section, which doesn't sit well with too many people, and may decide to not honor the freebie. If you post non-hotlinked links, like this http://www.saveland.ca/ , they will not be able to see where it originated from, which gives you a better chance at getting your freebie. Of course, this all depends on the freebie itself, some like coupons or eBooks don't matter, whereas some do.

Yes this is one of the reasons we do not get all the freebies we are expecting to receive.

Thanks for the sticky! It's not that weird Heather, they just want to make sure people aren't taking things for free just because it's "free".
