Welcome to the Free Item Archive/FAQ. This is a list of the free items you can get through offers, or in game give-aways. I'll try to keep this updated for people and would like to hear if you find new offers or find some old ones that have croaked.
These items are one-grant only unless otherwise specified.

Other ways to get free stuff!
There are a few other ways to get free stuff on Gaia Online daily. Here's a quick run-down of the things I know you can do:
Daily Chance - Every day one will appear on each main page. It's possible to get free items, including tokens and trade-in items.
zOMG Daily Freebies - Every day, you can speak to certain NPCS in every area for daily freebies. This includes money and the occasional item. You can see them marked on the maps as a pair of dice. (Can anyone get me a list of NPC names/positions?)
Sponsor Worlds - MTV Hills once had a slew of free items, and right now the Skittles World spews out free things from mini-games.
Check the Forums - Some Charities will give you new items merely if you're new, if you have a birthday, or if you do a few things for the thread.
Check the Announcements - Announcements on Gaia often have free items attached, if they're sponsored. Check them here.
Holiday Events - As of right now the Xmas event is occuring; donating items to meet the achievements will grant you free items, along with visiting stores and caroling in town. zOMG has daily presents under a tree in Barton. During most holiday (if not all) events you can get a ton of free things for very little effort.
Booty Grab - The Fishtank game, where you catch coins. Visit the forums, specifically the Aquarium category, to find hundreds of tanks. Very rarely it can also grant you an item (I won a hermit cat once.)
Aquarium Jaws - Even if your tank health is poor, if you have one fish in your aquarium you can get a present daily by clicking the glowing statue of Jaws (the merman). I noticed lower level health tanks result in more items, for some reason.
Mini-Games - Play Minigames for gold and exchangable items. (Fish, Tokens, etc.)
Also, Create Stuff! - You can exchange bugs, trash, and other certain items in order to make items! These aren't really 'free' as they often have a gold price involved, but it is something very easily done. (Right now, however, the Exchange is down. Probably due to the Holiday event.) Here's a list of the things you can exchange:
Bugs - For Ink, which can be used for Tattoos, and Flowers.
Trash - Crumpled paper found in Towns and Daily Chance can be traded in for paper hats.
Ink For Tattoos. Most only need one bottle of ink, some need more, and some need multiple colors.
Recipes - Items found in zOMG can be exchanged to make avatar items here.
Flowers - Make bouquets! The ribbons can be dyed with Ink.
Fish - Trade fish from Daily Chance and Fishing for items. Also apparently applies to boots and tin cans.
Bachelor Credits - This is the only one I'm unsure of. I know that the Word game produces these, but I've never amassed any or tried to trade. Anyone got more info?
Prize and Joy - Trade credits obtained by playing Cards and Slots for prizes.
Am I missing a VALID offer?
Please post it here, your results (successful? What did you get? How many times can you use it? Does it have special requirements?) will be added into the list.
Please help me find this offer! - There was an item granted through Facebook that gave you a Fan Jacket. I need the link for it!
I do not count the Free Offers for Gaia Cash here.
I do not promote the use of them. Take these at your own risk; I have gotten some free cash from Facebook application offers, and that's the only ones I trust because I can remove them right after I'm granted the item. You also get a free Cravate Demonique for every offer completed, but AGAIN DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. (If anyone has a link to a thread better explaining these risks, please tell me.)
