FREEBIE ALERT: John Grisham Novel, "The Tumor"

Photo courtesy pixabay.com

I remember my mom reading author John Grisham's legal thrillers, but with his new novel, he's doing something completely altruistic. Here's what he had to say about it: 

"As a lawyer turned author, I know little about medicine and medical research. But when I learned about focused ultrasound and its potential to change lives, I knew it was a story worth telling. This is the most important book I have ever written. I have found no other cause that can potentially save so many lives."

To raise awareness, and perhaps with a hope of garnering your donations, the Focused Ultrasound Foundation is giving out free copies of the book The Tumor when it is released in January. Click here to reserve your copy, no donation required. You can request up to three copies. Digital copies are also available.

If you've been a reader for very long, you know that I'm not much into contests.  If I'm going to take the time to fill out a form, I want a sure return, not a long shot. But this contest is too good to miss!

Starbucks, the company that (usually) doesn't even have freebies at their grand openings, has launched a gameboard-style contest similar to McDonald's annual Monopoly game.

Here's how it works: Make a purchase at any Starbucks location between now and January 11 using a registered Starbucks gift card to receive a free game piece loaded to your account.  Then, visit StarbucksforLife.com and sign into your account. You'll see a gift icon which you can click to open.  It may contain an instant win or a game piece to save up for bigger prizes.

But here's the fine print: you don't have to make a purchase to enter.  Once logged in to StarbucksforLife.com, simply scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "To enter without making a purchase, click here."  You'll put in your address and a game piece will be emailed to you. You can enter up to twice a day...so do it! I've been at it for two days, and thus far I've got one piece towards the coffee for life, one towards coffee for a month, and two towards coffee for a week!

Potential prizes include:
One Million bonus stars
500 Starbucks for a week
125 Starbucks for a month
25 Starbucks for a year
5 Starbucks for life

I've got a Starbucks right down the street, and it's both expensive and addictive.  Any of these prizes will make me one happy camper :)
