We all love free stuff.
Especially stuff like stickers. You can stick them to anything you want. And what’s more bad-ass than having a sticker of your favorite company somewhere everyone will see it?
Stickers can give people a sense of self-knowledge. What I mean by that is, if someone sees you’re repping a Kiss sticker, they’ll automatically know you’re a die-hard rock fan.
Other than letting people know who you are and what you’re into, stickers can be great gifts, collection items, and toys for children.
There’s a variety of ways you don’t need to reach for your wallet to get high-quality brand stickers. In this article, we’ll show you exactly how to get stickers for free, and share some companies that give out free stickers to get you started.
Why do companies send free stickers?
Well, the answer is straightforward.
If a company sends you a free sticker, it’s more than likely that you’ll display it somewhere like a car, a laptop, a binder, a wheelchair, or anywhere you wish.
And if you think of how many people see your things in a day, especially if you’re like me working in coffee shops all the time, it’s excellent brand awareness marketing for that company.
It’s a win-win. You get a free sticker, and the company gets free marketing. Stickers are also relatively cheap to make.
How can you get free stickers?
Getting free stickers depends on place to place. For some companies, you may need to fill out forms, while others you can get by just sending an email.
Either way, here are the different ways to get free stickers.
1. Fill out an application form
Some companies will ask you to fill out an application form to receive a free sticker. Although this is free in terms of money, it may be a little time consuming, especially if the application is lengthy.
But if you don’t mind, you can fill out the form even if you have no intention of actually joining the company. Fingers crossed your application fails to go through!

Annies is the boxed pasta brand that’s known for its bunny mascot. By filling out this form, you can choose from a variety of 4 free stickers.

Billabong is an Australian brand that creates high-quality surf wear. If you’ve ever been to LA or any other surf towns in the US, you’ve likely seen the brand logo being flashed around either on clothing, surfboards, or car bumpers.
You can order your free sticker with this form. Allow 4-6 weeks for delivery as it’s coming from Australia.
Cotopaxi
By filling this form, you can get a cute llama sticker from this outdoor clothing brand. Filling out the form will also sign you up for the email list.
2. Sign up for an email list or newsletter
Instead of filling out an entire form, some companies simply ask you to sign up for their email list or newsletter with your email and name.

3. Send a stamped envelope
Some companies require you to send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to get a free sticker. They’ll send the free sticker back to you in the same envelope. Make sure you don’t seal it, though. Otherwise, they won’t be able to put the stickers inside!

You can get away with getting free stickers from some companies by sending a short and sweet email.
Here’s a template you can follow:
Dear (company name),
I love your brand, and I’ve been a customer for a long time. I was wondering if, by any possibility, you’d send me a company sticker? I’d be proud to display it on my car bumper to show people I’m a big fan.
I look forward to hearing back from you!
Thanks a million,
(your name)

Companies that offer free stickers by referrals
Sticker Mule
Sticker Mule will give you a $10 credit for every friend you refer to. If you get 6 referrals, you can get 50 customized stickers free.

6. Walk-ins for free stickers
Although walking in isn’t the most common option to get your free stickers, it’s still possible. Some companies will have some on hand in the back or at the front counter. All you need to do is ask!
Companies that offer free stickers to walk-ins
In-N-Out Burger
Go in-n-out with a burger AND a free sticker. You use to be able to score a sticker from their contact page, but they stopped doing that, and now fans can only get stickers while visiting one of their chain locations.
In-N-Out Burger is the only company that has publicly announced they have free stickers in-store, but many of your favorite stores will likely have some stickers stashed away. I visited Lululemon and got a free sticker by asking for one at the check-out.
Conclusion
Stickers are so handy because they can make any dull surface look cluttered, they act as playful surprises for kids, and you can gift them instead of emptying your wallet on gifts.
The best part is, getting free stickers is relatively easy. In most cases, all you need to do is shoot a quick email, fill out a form, or give your email. So, why not become a sticker hoarder?
