For those of you who haven't heard of the The $39 Experiment, I thought I'd share this pretty cool story. Some guy decided one day that he was going to take a roll of stamps (worth $39) and mail 100 letter to 100 different companies. The results? He ended up getting $272.93 worth of coupons and free stuff. His blog ended up being an internet craze, and he sold all of his freebies in an auction on EBay for charity. Not only were all the freebies up in the auction, but also a lifetime ad on his blog. HostSite won the auction, and their banner is still up on the site. The auction went for $81 and he matched the price to give to the American Heart Association, raising a total $162. The experiment was started in February 2006 and ended around November 2006 when the author said he might start a new experiment titled "Another $39 Experiment", which he linked to. This site has nothing on it to this day.
