How to: Get companys to set you up with giveaways

Alright, ive been blogging & couponing for just over 2 years now. I love doing it, and i love helping people save money! On my FaceBook Fan Page I do some giveaways, but they arent anything special like the ones ive been entering for actual PRODUCTS from different company's, like Rubbermaid, Softlips, etc., but I have no clue where to start or how you guys get the companys to do this for you. Ive emailed a bunch of company's and only 2 said they'd be happy to help me so i used their product for a give away, but it was only free coupons, then other companys seem offended I even asked and other companys say they arent dont have a give away policy yet, but will pass my email along to the proper person for future use. So come on help me out! I know a few of you have mentioned a few websites and I did sign up with them. The newest one i signed up with today is Mom Select -- so we'll see how that goes!!!

**p.s for the people who actually read by blog, how do you feel im doing? Advice will help me, if im not doing something good enough, or should change up the way im doing something! Let me know!! I appreciate all your support, esp the 705 Fans i now have on my fan page=)

    Sign up at SheBlogs.org. There is a lot of info on BlogFrog as well. I get contacted directly for most of mine, but have had some luck in contacting different companies. I am (I feel) pretty new to the PR game, but I am learning.

    Good luck! And your blog is great- don't worry about that. I do not get massive comments either- but my stats look better than that.
    (Honestly, I think you might get more comments w/o word verification) you can set it up where you have to approve anon comments. But I think the whole wv process turns commenters away)
