The provided source material details several promotional offers from Disney and associated retailers that provide free merchandise, either as gifts with purchase or through direct contact with brands. The information covers two main categories: free items available with qualifying purchases on the Disney online store and a method for obtaining free products by contacting companies directly. These offers are primarily focused on Disney and Star Wars merchandise, with some broader advice applicable to other brands.
One significant promotion is available to Disney+ subscribers. Through the Disney online store, subscribers can obtain a free Star Wars key with select Star Wars purchases. The code DISNEYPLUS can be used to obtain a Free Star Wars Day 2024 Collectible Key with qualifying purchases. An example of a qualifying item is the Star Wars Sands of Tatooine Loungefly backpack, described as featuring the Skywalker moisture farm and the Rebellion symbol on its interior lining. Another qualifying item is the Will Gay Artist Series Plates, which depict animated scenes of saga characters, including an Ewok and Boba Fett holding a Han Solo in Carbonite balloon.
The Disney store also offers free gifts with purchases of $100 or more. Two items are available in this way: a Stainless Steel Piglet Water Bottle, covered in a design of Piglet’s body with a figural topper of Piglet’s head, and a Mug & Stencil set, which includes a colourful coffee mug with silhouettes of Disney characters and three stainless steel stencils. A third item, a Donald Duck and his Nephews Backpack, is available for free with a $100 purchase or for $18 with any other purchase. This backpack features Donald and his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie in a tropical summer design. A fourth item, a Stitch and Scrump belt bag in neon colour, is also available for free with a $100 purchase or for $18 with any purchase. The promotion also includes 2-for-1 ornaments.
Separately, Sideshow Collectibles offered a Hot Toys IG-11 Sixth Scale Collectible Figure for free with a purchase of $275 or more on eligible in-stock items. This promotion, related to Star Wars Celebration Japan, ended on April 20, 2025. The figure, based on the droid from Star Wars: The Mandalorian, stood 14.17 inches tall and included accessories such as mechanical graspers, two blasters, and a leather shoulder strap with ammo pouches. The eligible items list included 336 options, such as Hot Toys figures of Anakin Skywalker, Iron Man, Boba Fett, Knightmare Batman, General Grievous, The Mandalorian and The Child, and Venom.
Beyond purchase-based promotions, a method for obtaining free samples and coupons directly from companies is outlined. This involves contacting brands directly through their website’s “Contact Us,” “Customer Service,” or “Feedback” pages. The recommendation is to write a brief, polite, and genuine message, providing honest feedback or compliments about specific products. Including a mailing address is necessary for receiving physical items. The more companies contacted, the higher the likelihood of receiving freebies.
Major companies known for sending freebies in response to customer feedback include Procter & Gamble (makers of Tide, Pampers, and Febreze), Unilever (brands like Dove and Hellmann’s), General Mills (cereals like Cheerios), Kellogg’s, Nestlé, Johnson & Johnson, and Colgate-Palmolive. This approach is applicable across categories such as beauty, baby care, health, food, and household goods.
Conclusion
The available information details specific, time-sensitive promotional offers for Disney and Star Wars merchandise, primarily available through the Disney online store and Sideshow Collectibles. These offers are conditional on making qualifying purchases. A separate, broader method for obtaining free samples from a wide range of companies is also described, which relies on direct customer feedback rather than a purchase requirement. Consumers interested in these opportunities should verify the current status of any promotion directly with the relevant retailer, as offers and eligibility criteria can change.
