freebie
This term is predominantly informal and carries a lighthearted, casual tone. It is frequently used in marketing and consumer contexts to describe low-cost promotional items, such as stickers, pens, or small samples, which are intended to create brand awareness or goodwill.
While it refers to something obtained without payment, "freebie" differs from a "gift" in its intent; a gift is typically personal or altruistic, whereas a freebie is usually a strategic business tool designed to entice a customer into a future purchase.
