The little-known website where users can get a box of full-sized goodies totally for FREE, including booze and snacks
WITH the costs soaring, nothing is better than a full-sized freebie - especially if it's snacks and booze.
Luckily, if you're on the lookout for a free treat, cash-savvy Brits have found a little-known website where you can get your hands on goodies without forking out a single penny.

The site - Try It - helps people ''discover new favourite products'' to try at home in exchange for a review.
To qualify for your free box of goodies, which also include treats for your pet, you first need to sign up and create a profile that helps the brand to get to know you a little.
According to the site, the membership won't ever cost you a penny, and your profile info will help them tailor new product experiences around your likes and needs.
Once you've tried the products, take a moment to give some honest feedback.
When complete, you'll instantly become eligible to receive more boxes, with more products.
The site keeps the contents of each campaign a secret until after delivery, so you won't know what products are inside your box until you open it - it's like Christmas but all year round.
With a variety of products from food, drinks and tasty snacks, to cosmetics and grooming, healthcare and household essentials, the boxes have something for everyone.
Informing fellow cash-strapped Brits about the epic deal, one woman, Tracey Green, took to Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook.
Sharing a snap of her brand new full-sized goodies, the thrifty woman said: ''I signed up, received an email with a survey, which I had to answer some questions to see if I was a match and received my 1st free #triyit box. I was so excited to receive it.
''It's not a huge box but was full of full size goodies. These are #Gifted and you get to try lots of products free.
I tried Harry Kane's knobbly sticks after England star did a Gary Lineker by releasing snack brand - here's my verdict
''You need to snap photos of the products and leave feedback on what you thought of the products.
''Sign up today, you have nothing to lose. Win win!''
It's not just Tracey raving about the bargain deal, as loads of other people shared their success with the Try It box.
Fridge or cupboard? The essential food storage guide
Foods must be stored correctly to keep them fresh and prevent the spread of bacteria.
Nutrition expert Birgit Brendel said bread will last longer when stored in the fridge or freezer.
However, this can compromise the flavour.
Storing in ceramic or pottery containers is an alternative that allows for air to flow easily and slow the growth of mould.
Robert Morris, managing director of food safety consultants, Complete Food Safety, revealed the best place to store fresh fruit and vegetables.
He said salad foods should be stored in the fridge drawer, but away from anything grown in the soil such as carrots, parsnips and beetroot.
Tomatoes are an exception to the rule as fridges can alter the natural ripening process and diminish their taste.
He also advised against putting avocados and bananas in the fridge as this will cause them to blacken quicker.
One wrote: ''I got this exact same box the other day too!''
Another chimed in: ''I've had whiskey, cider, dog treats mainly.''
A third lucky customer commented under the post: ''I've been lucky, I've had half a dozen boxes over the last two years.
''My cats and dogs have got to try all sorts of food, as have I and I've got to try whiskies, rums and three different vodkas!''

EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick suspended over ableist slur
The EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick has been suspended by the BBC after using an ableist slur on the set of Strictly Come Dancing. A video emerged of the actor, who plays Jay Brown on the long-running soap, using the term to describe the people of Blackpool, the town where the programme was being filmed, according to the Sun on Sunday. On Saturday, a spokesperson for the BBC said: 'This language is entirely unacceptable and in no way reflects the values or standards we hold and expect at the BBC. We have robust processes in place for this.' Warren Kirwan, media manager at disability equality charity Scope, said: 'Attitudes and language like this are never acceptable. 'It's not just ignorant and hurtful to disabled people, it has wider consequences. Negative attitudes hold disabled people back in all areas of life, from getting a job to shopping on the high street. 'Mr Borthwick needs to reflect on what he said, educate himself and do better. We hope he takes the opportunity to get to know the reality of disabled people's lives.' Borthwick won the Strictly 2023 Christmas special with Nancy Xu. The 30-year-old took part in the most recent series of Strictly, where he was paired with the professional dancer Michelle Tsiakkas. They were eliminated in week 10, finishing seventh. Borthwick, who joined EastEnders in 2006 and is one of the longest-serving actors on the show, told the Sun on Sunday: 'I want to apologise sincerely and wholeheartedly for the words I used in the video showing my reaction to making it through Blackpool week on Strictly. I am deeply sorry for any offence and upset my words and actions have caused. 'It is no excuse, but I did not fully understand the derogatory term I used and its meaning. That is on me completely. Now I am aware, I am deeply embarrassed to have used the term and directed it in the way I did. It was wrong. 'When I made the video, I was excited and caught up in the moment. Again, that is no excuse. But my regrettable actions are not a true reflection of my views, or who I am. 'I enjoyed every minute of my time in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom and the town itself. The people of Blackpool have always been amazing with the Strictly crew, dancers and cast members. I know they will be again for this year's show and those in years to come. I am truly sorry.' Wynne Evans, who also competed in last year's edition of Strictly, said last week he had been dropped by the BBC, after apologising for using 'inappropriate language' during the launch of the Strictly Come Dancing tour. The Welsh opera singer, 53, will no longer be a BBC Radio Wales presenter, he announced last week. Earlier this year, he apologised for language that he called 'inappropriate and unacceptable' after the Mail on Sunday reported that he was heard making a remark to a woman in a video filmed during the Strictly launch event. It is understood Evans was given a warning over the remark by tour producers. In January, he said: 'I've agreed with the BBC that I'll take some time out from my radio show and the Strictly Live tour, as well as my other public commitments, to prioritise my wellbeing. I am deeply sorry for the pain my inappropriate actions have caused, and plan to take this time for self-reflection.'

Jude Bellingham's girlfriend Ashlyn Castro and his mum spotted in the stands at England match - one week after influencer's social media return
Jude Bellingham 's girlfriend Ashlyn Castro sat shoulder to shoulder with his mother Denise on Saturday. The pair watched on as the Real Madrid star put in a 90-minute shift during England's 1-0 win against Andorra, which extended Thomas Tuchel 's 100 per cent record at the helm. Harry Kane found the breakthrough five minutes into the second half, after a chance from just yards away was put on a plate for him by Noni Madueke - the nation's all-time top-goalscorer could not miss. At recent matches, fans suggested that there may be tension between Castro, 27, and Denise, 57. But at their latest outing, all seemed well between the two as they stood next to each other as they cheered on Bellingham, 21. With the temperature in the mid 20s in sun-soaked Catalonia, Castro wore a waist-snatching red dress, while Denise sported a white zip-up top and black athletic trousers with white stripes. When Castro accompanied Denise to watch a match in March, many fans picked up on what they thought was a frosty interaction. As the TV cameras panned to the high-end area where Denise was watching the game, a screengrab that circulated on social media appeared to show her giving a side-eye to Castro. A side-eye glance is usually interpreted as expressing disapproval or contempt towards somebody and fans were quick to react to the moment. However, it has since been revealed that the screengrab took their interaction out of context. The start of Castro's relationship with Bellingham was marred by claims about her past along with an escort site hoax. This led to her taking a four-month break from social media, only returning last week, with Bellingham quick to react to her post. She was previously linked with Hollywood actor Michael B Jordan and NBA stars LaMelo Ball and Terance Mann, while a viral video also claimed that Castro had dated Lewis Hamilton and Jamie Foxx after making tenuous links between social media activity. And, in an emotional monologue on TikTok of more than 10 minutes, Castro, who has more than 600,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok, put to bed several false rumours. 'I don't even know where to begin, but I'm going to try my best to just get into it,' she said in a video that was titled 'The hardest part is not speaking the truth, but finding the courage to do it'. She went onto debunk several claims made about her, including allegations of being unfaithful. 'It makes me super uncomfortable talking on camera about my personal life,' Castro added. 'I've never even really spoken on camera too many times, so bear with me. 'Every angle you can think of, people have attacked me, harassed me, been so disrespectful. It's just been too much. 'Let's talk about this dating history. I've had three boyfriends over the last eight years. In 2017, I was in my very first relationship and he's a public figure, so because of that, I've dealt with people talking about me, making up things about me. 'There was nothing on the internet about me prior, so people kind of just made up a bunch of things to justify hating me because of who I was dating at the time. 'And then over the last six years after that, I've dated two people. So three relationships in total.'
