{Expired} Pear Tree: 48 free address labels

by Crystal on May 08, 2010

*****This promotion has now ended.****

Pear Tree is offering 48 free address labels for Mother’s Day! I wasn’t too excited about this offer until I checked out the website and saw the cute designs they have. It’s definitely worth taking a few moments to create — or order some as a gift for someone else!

Here’s how to get 48 free address labels:

::Go to Pear Tree and choose your label design.

::Choose either 24 of the larger sized labels or 48 regular sized labels.

::Personalize your labels and checkout using the coupon code MOMSDAY10. Your total should be $0.00 and you shouldn’t have to include any payment information.

Thanks, Common Sense With Money!

    I’m creating mine right now. I rack up these freebies all year and use them for Christmas gifts!

  • Lauren @ Just Add Lauren May 08, 2010 at 10:49 am

    I really wanted to get some, but the website took SOOO long on my computer I wasn’t even able to complete it. I thought maybe it was just my computer, but my husband tried on a different one, and it still didn’t work. I dont know if the website is just overloaded or if it just isn’t that great of a hosting site. Thanks for the tip though – would have loved to have gotten some!

    • Crystal May 08, 2010 at 10:54 am

      @Lauren @ Just Add Lauren, When I created mine, it actually went pretty fast. Maybe they are overloaded right now? I’d try again later on, if you have a chance.

      • Lauren @ Just Add Lauren May 08, 2010 at 01:21 pm

        @Crystal,

        Yeah, I got it to work…I think maybe it was just my computer? I’ve been having some weird computer issues lately. It was slow for me, but the labels are so cute I didn’t want to give up! Thankfully though, it never timed out, so I just let it keep running and it went through. Thanks for the link!

  • Kristin May 08, 2010 at 10:56 am

    The site is taking a long time but I finally got through. They have really nice stuff! I think I’ll order some note cards from them one of these days!

  • Bethany May 08, 2010 at 11:08 am

    I just did this. It was slow at first, but then it picked right up and I got some ordered no problem. Really neat stuff.

  • Jane May 08, 2010 at 11:10 am

    Does anyone know how long this will be going on?

  • Heather C May 08, 2010 at 11:17 am

    I just got some for my mom, who is always sending lovely notes to people. What a great deal!

  • Krista May 08, 2010 at 11:19 am

    I was even able to choose free next day shipping!

  • Erica May 08, 2010 at 11:26 am

    It will be nice to not have to write out my address on envelopes! Plus these are way cute!

  • MeghanM May 08, 2010 at 11:33 am

    I chose 2 different sets of 24 regular sized labels and got them free plus free next day air – love it!

  • Jen May 08, 2010 at 12:02 pm

    Just got a message saying that the promo code was no longer valid. Congrats to those of you who were able to take advantage of the offer!

  • Stephanie May 08, 2010 at 12:04 pm

    I just did it and it took the promo code fine. I know others who got the not valid message, but it still worked.

  • Alissabeth May 08, 2010 at 12:19 pm

    Just typed code in and it is working…site is really slow.

  • Rachel May 08, 2010 at 12:22 pm

    It took a VERY long time, but did work and they were totally free. Thanks!! Excited to get them for my gma!

  • Lindsey May 08, 2010 at 12:55 pm

    I read that the deal was meant for 5/9 but that they intend to have the site working better (I think its techinical difficulities, not just site overload) by tomorrow.

  • Shannon P May 08, 2010 at 01:02 pm

    It is only giving me one line, so it can’t do an address correctly. Hmm….

    • Mandy May 08, 2010 at 01:22 pm

      @Shannon P, I ran into the same glitch. Refresh the page – or choose a different style – I think it is because of the slowness and technical glitches they are having.

  • Bree May 08, 2010 at 01:17 pm

    Yay, I just order 48 adorable labels, with next day shipping, for FREE! No payment information was necessary, since the total was zero. Thank you!

  • Kathleen May 08, 2010 at 01:34 pm

    Site was running really slow but it eventually worked for me!

  • Lilly May 08, 2010 at 01:35 pm

    Saying promo code no longer valid but after several tries I was able to submit my order. I wonder if they are overloaded and will have to pull the offer soon.

  • Ashley May 08, 2010 at 01:36 pm

    If you only see one line, that is for the top text, then there should be a second step that you put the address into. So for example, where it says write your note and has one line, you would put in your name or Smith Family or whatever, then continue to next step and it should have space for your address.

  • Marlene May 08, 2010 at 01:36 pm

    I just did it and it worked! Took about 10 minutes but the code was valid and everything! Thanks, these are super cute :)

  • Wendy May 08, 2010 at 01:38 pm

    It let me choose 40 of the round ones. I wasn’t sure if they were “regular” or “large” but the order total came to 0.00 when I ordered 40. Hope that helps!

  • melissa connally May 08, 2010 at 01:59 pm

    So cute! I just ordered mine. The site was a little slow but worth it. Thanks!

  • Melodie May 08, 2010 at 02:01 pm

    I just talked to someone from the site via chat. They said the site should be fixed . . . hopefully by this evening; but definitely by tomorrow morning. I got almost all the way through ordering, had the promo code working and all my info entered; (no credit card info required); and then lost the whole shabang on the “confirm order” button. *sigh*. But I will try again tonight. They are just too cute to pass up. It’s worth another shot!

  • Tina May 08, 2010 at 02:15 pm

    I just tried it and it said the promo code was no longer valid. Not sure if this is due to the technical difficulties they are having or if they’ve hit their limit.

  • Erin May 08, 2010 at 02:19 pm

    Thanks so much! I got 40 round ones with next day shipping for free! The site is definitely very sluggish, but the code does work!

  • Rebekah May 08, 2010 at 02:21 pm

    Wow, this took forever, but it was worth it! I’m so glad I got it to work. I am moving to a new house soon so the timing of this free offer is PERFECT!!

  • Tammy May 08, 2010 at 02:22 pm

    It took a little while, and a lot of reloading each page, but I finally got it to work. I can’t wait to get these!

  • Emily O. May 08, 2010 at 02:22 pm

    Slow, but worked for me. So many cute options! I only let myself look through the first few pages of choices because I knew it would be too hard to choose otherwise!

  • Megan May 08, 2010 at 02:25 pm

    I just got mine, too!

    I’m not sure if I’m on to something here, but when I copied & pasted the MOMSDAY10 code it said the offer was invalid. So I tried typing it out it then accepted it!

  • Kaatji May 08, 2010 at 02:27 pm

    Taking a bit of time…. maybe i’ll try back later tonight – does the code expire @ a certain time?

  • Elizabeth May 08, 2010 at 02:33 pm

    Just ordered some! How adorable!! Thanks for the post :)

  • Nicole May 08, 2010 at 02:39 pm

    I just ordered 48, and had my husband order 48. Perfect timing, too–we had just run out of address labels.

  • Nicole S May 08, 2010 at 02:40 pm

    Tried twice toady-first time it froze during my order. Second time it says the site is having techincal difficulties-bummer. Will have to try later tonight when traffic is slower.

  • Nicole May 08, 2010 at 02:41 pm

    Even if it says “code not valid”, click submit code, and it should work anyways.

  • Krista S May 08, 2010 at 02:42 pm

    Thanks for the tip on this awesome freebie! It did take me awhile to make it (and choose a design…there were too many I liked!), but well worth my time since it was FREE! Can’t wait to get mine in the mail :)

  • Ellen Christian May 08, 2010 at 02:47 pm

    It went through! I chose the adorable ladybug one and while the site was very, very slow, it did actually go through. Now if they show up, that will be even more fantastic! Thanks for the heads up on the deal!

  • Christy May 08, 2010 at 02:49 pm

    The page won’t even load … I’m sure it’s over loaded right now.

  • Mary May 08, 2010 at 02:58 pm

    Mine is working great now!! SLow this afternoon.. but a breeze today!

  • Erica D. May 08, 2010 at 03:04 pm

    the code isnt working so i saught help and they said the mothers day code would not be working until tomorrow!!! huh

  • jENNY May 08, 2010 at 03:16 pm

    Did it! It took FOREVER! Thanks Pear Tree for free labels!

  • Christy May 08, 2010 at 03:24 pm

    It’s working for me now, so the code is very valid & taking the total to zero.

  • Janie May 08, 2010 at 03:32 pm

    Alright! Just got 24 large ones for myself, ordering some for my mom now! :) Great deal, Crystal!

  • Vicki May 08, 2010 at 03:39 pm

    It took a long time, but hopefully they will come! Really cute things, thank you!

  • Nicole May 08, 2010 at 03:52 pm

    woo hoo finally got mine!!! I got 2 sets of the round ones, and got cute Christmas ones..since this is the only time we really send out mail, everything else we pay online :)

  • Stephanie May 08, 2010 at 03:59 pm

    Got them-thanks! It was a little slow, but I can’t complain. I bet they are swamped!

  • Alyssa May 08, 2010 at 04:20 pm

    Well, It worked for me- but it still costs me $5.98….Not sure why :(

  • Rhonda May 08, 2010 at 04:49 pm

    It worked for me. I ordered 2 sets of the regular size labels. One set for each of my boys and put on it:
    This Belongs To:
    Their name
    My phone number

    Now when we loan any movies, books, etc I can put the label on it.

    • Christy May 08, 2010 at 06:08 pm

      @Rhonda,
      Cute idea!

  • CMSchultz May 08, 2010 at 05:33 pm

    I found if you refresh then the loading will go thru. I love this deal :)

  • Tracy May 08, 2010 at 05:45 pm

    Does anyone know how long this code is good for?

  • Jodi May 08, 2010 at 06:13 pm

    Says promo code is no longer valid :(

  • nicole May 08, 2010 at 06:25 pm

    i can’t seem to get my pictures uploaded is there some trick?

  • Kelly May 08, 2010 at 06:32 pm

    I was finally able to get the labels to pull up. I’m getting the “promo code no longer valid”. :( I really hope I can get this to work!

  • Erin May 08, 2010 at 06:42 pm

    It was slow, then said “promo code no longer valid.” I’m guessing they have pulled it due to the response. too bad they look really nice!

  • Rhonda May 08, 2010 at 07:10 pm

    FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO GOT THE “PROMO CODE IS NO LONGER VALID” MESSAGE….I got it too but once I clicked on the submit button it took it. So you might go back and try it again.

  • Heather May 08, 2010 at 07:16 pm

    The site isn’t working very well right now. I think I’ll try again in the morning. I’d like to get a set for each of my kids with just their names to use as book plates.

  • Jen May 08, 2010 at 07:28 pm

    This is the message I get when I try to load the page:

    Thank you for visiting Pear Tree Greetings. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we are experiencing technical difficulties. We appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming you back soon!

  • Erin McCall May 08, 2010 at 08:11 pm

    I just tried but their website is down ‘due to technical difficulties. :(

  • Lydia May 08, 2010 at 08:13 pm

    their site is down now :( bummer- this is a great offer!! I really need new address labels, too.

  • Alicia Henderson May 08, 2010 at 09:04 pm

    The site is now not running due to technical difficulties. That is a pretty crappy website.

  • Erin Sweet May 08, 2010 at 09:30 pm

    I have tried several times to get onto site, says site is down due to technical difficulties. Saw this deal earlier at sister in laws house and was really looking forward to geting some cute address labels! Hope they get the site going soon!!

  • megscole64 May 08, 2010 at 09:39 pm

    Dang…I really wanted to get these but their site is now down. I think we crashed it! :(

  • Sherry May 08, 2010 at 10:00 pm

    The offerr is no longer available this is from their website:

    We are so sorry! Our Mother’s Day address label promotion went wild! Thanks for visiting Pear Tree Greetings, but we are no longer offering free address labels.

    Have a wonderful Mother’s Day and thanks for your understanding.

  • mrs spock May 08, 2010 at 10:10 pm

    They closed the deal. There is now a note on the website saying the deal is no longer available.

  • Jenna May 08, 2010 at 10:33 pm

    This is what the site says now:

    We are so sorry! Our Mother’s Day address label promotion went wild! Thanks for visiting Pear Tree Greetings, but we are no longer offering free address labels.

    Have a wonderful Mother’s Day and thanks for your understanding.

    I am wondering if they will fulfill orders placed before they ended it or not?

  • Jenna May 08, 2010 at 10:36 pm

    And again I am surprised at how many companies are surprised when lots of people want to take advantage of getting something free.

  • Denise May 08, 2010 at 10:38 pm

    I’ve been trying to do this off and on all afternoon/evening. When I was finally able to get to the checkout area, it said the code was no longer valid. I clicked on the Chat Now with a Rep button and asked about it. They said that they had some unforeseen problems with the web site and they had to discontinue the discount. I said how disappointed I was. They said they understood how frustrating it was and hoped that I would try them another time.

  • Sara May 08, 2010 at 11:00 pm

    Darn it! I tried doing this all day and had to restart the process several times due to their “technical difficulties” and when I finally got it to go, I got the same message as you all….that it went wild and they quit doing it… Disappointing! Oh well…maybe next time! :) Happy early Mother’s Day to you all!

  • Angela May 08, 2010 at 11:02 pm

    Bummer – the rep I chatted with told me to try tomorrow when the page wasn’t working and I happened to have the page still open and see that it is already over.

  • momof3girls May 08, 2010 at 11:21 pm

    very sad that the promo code was no longer available – and the notice did not come up until I entered the promo code – after I went to the trouble to make the label. That is just aggravating instead of good marketing – ugh!

  • Chris May 09, 2010 at 02:37 am

    So sad it’s over! I was hoping to score some for some wedding announcements! They are so cute and reasonably priced, I think I will go for it anyways!!

  • Stephanie May 09, 2010 at 06:06 am

    The site went down last night. I tried again, but now it says it’s expired. It’s too bad they didn’t extend it since it was a technical error on their end. Oh, well. I had fun looking through them all anyway.

  • jen May 09, 2010 at 06:50 am

    we are moving soon so I was so excited to get cute labels for FREE… I’ll have to hurry and use up my vista labels I got a little while back

  • Kathleen May 09, 2010 at 08:14 am

    I wasted 45 minutes trying to create labels…the website was SO SLOW and kept freezing up…decided to wait until today to try and now the website says the promo is over…so frustrating!

    This has happened to me several times recently…it seems like the deals posted at msm become so popular that they get pulled or the websites get jammed and those of us who don’t get there in time (but aren’t aware of it) wind up wasting our time for nothing.

    I do enjoy the posts, but this makes me very uninclined to follow any of the freebie links. I have better things to do with my time than wait for websites to load!

  • Isabel May 09, 2010 at 08:40 am

    I tried all day yesterday to get these, it kept saying technical difficulties try later. I was so upset, they looked really nice.

  • Gayellen May 13, 2010 at 03:53 pm

    I already received my labels in the mail today! They are darling and they are such great quality. Thank you so much for the tip!
