One of the legitimate complaints about the green movement is that it so often focuses on buying more stuff. The living simply message of making things last longer, using what you have, and making do with less often gets lost. At the Living Green expo this weekend, it will be a mixture of commercialism and restraint. Here is a list of eight freebies at the expo.

Get there free on metro transit. Download the coupon at the site.

The first 150 attendees in the door Saturday and Sunday receive a free copy of the Blue Sky Guide.

 Bring your burned out CFL bulbs to the Green River Recycling tent outside and recycle them free.

Ride a Segway free in the Alternative Vehicles area.

 Sample free bites of Organic Valley cheeses and milk and get coupons for future purchases.

Sign up for the Living Green newsletter and get a free burrito from Chipotle.

Get a free copy of “Solar Today” magazine in the Renewable Energy Demo area.

Check out any of the free workshops during the weekend, including home canning, saving money, starting a seed garden, energy savings, and composting.
