There are many ways to find things for your kids on the internet like clothes, school supplies, toys, etc. During this economy though, money is really tight. When your kids are asking for new things and/or it's that time of year to go school shopping, it's hard to tell them you can't afford the things they need, so I wanted to share my favorite 12 places to find free kid stuff online.

1. There is a great website, http://www.freepeats.org/ where you can find things locally, in your area. You can find baby stuff, kid gear and you can even get rid of some of the stuff you no longer want. It's all free.
2. If you want to look elsewhere, try http://www.zwaggle.com/. There's all kinds of kids stuff there! You'll need to sign up becuase they use a point system to track stuff. You'll earn points by signing up and you can start to get rid of your own used stuff. Once you've earned points, you can use them to get other stuff on the site. It's pretty cool! Try it out and see for yourself. :)
3. Perhaps my favorite site to get free stuff is http://www.swaptree.com/. You can list stuff like games, books and DVDs and they will help you find lots of stuff that you can trade!
4. Don't forget that there's always http://www.craigslist.org. Click on the "Free" section in your area to find all kinds of free stuff!
5. If you are looking for free samples, try going to http://www.all-free-samples.com/baby/kids.php. It's a great site for finding a gazillion samples.
