Free items or services given away without charge, usually as a promotion or gift.
From 'free' (without cost) + '-ie' (informal diminutive suffix) + '-s' (plural). This informal compound is a 20th-century creation, gaining popularity in American marketing and advertising language.
The casual, cute sound of 'freebies' with its '-ie' ending is no accident—marketers deliberately use diminutive, friendly-sounding words to make us feel excited about getting free stuff!
