I don't think you have to buy it. Just include these things:
1. Your first and last name
2. Order # if required (begins with a T) or FREE item name
3. Your special’s e-mail code (same as used in subject line!)
4. Your shipping address- NO P.O. BOXES
5. Along with the following terms and conditions that you are agreeing to:
If I am taking advantage of a free item special or contest, then I will be responsible for additional shipping charges for that item and any import fees or customs required.
I understand that this E-mail must be received BEFORE my in-stock item ships, which usually happens within 24 hours after placing the order. Specials can’t be added after the items ships out to me.
1 (one) discount/item per customer per order. Specials are not eligible on Pre-Orders or flexible payment plans (FLEXpay).
I can’t combine my special with other price/shipping discounts,
gift cards, coupons, combination promotions, rewards, free items, contest prizes, etc. If I do the
gift card/rewards savings redeemed will be forfeited.
Free shipping offers are on ground services for the carrier of Sideshow’s choice. If I have a carrier preference you will be responsible for the cost difference in services.
