People have often said that nothing in life is free.
As a college student people are constantly offering me free things, especially food as an inducement to go to things. I don't love food in general but sometimes the idea of not having to buy food or even just not having to make food is an attractive idea. However, I still do not take up every offer of free food. One problem I have with it is becauyse although they say it is free it is often not meant as being free. They give it to you so that you will go to the program or activity. In essence they are offering food in exchange for your participation. I know in many instances people take the food and leave without participating and although most people don't think there is anything wrong with that I don't like to because it almost feels like cheating.
And yet I get daily emails from something called Bookbub that is a list of free or cheap ebooks. I will often "buy" the free books. Perhaps I should be better at reviewing them which is, I think, why they give them out for free.
