How to Get a Free Promo Beach Umbrella

A free beach umbrella may be available if you look in the right places.

If you are heading to the beach for vacation and plan on sitting out on the sand for a few hours, a beach umbrella is an important accessory to bring along. The umbrella can provide protection from the sun and ensure a slightly cooler area to sit in. If you don't want to buy or rent a beach umbrella, you may be able to get a free promotional one from a company or store hoping to get customers to make a purchase or spread the word with the umbrella.

Instructions

1. Check circulars or websites of nearby stores for promotions with free beach umbrellas. Examples might include retail stores, pharmacies, travel goods stores and sporting goods stores.

2. Read the promo offer carefully and follow the instructions, which might require you to buy a certain amount of merchandise or purchase certain items in order to receive the umbrella.

3. Keep an eye out for promotional giveaways outside of stores, on sidewalks or in shopping centers. As a way to promote a service or product, a company will give away free items like umbrellas with the company logo on them. You may need to sign up for a mailing list or a trial of a product or service in order to get the umbrella.
