It's the time of year when we retreat into our homes and put our social life on hold while we recover from an expensive summer. However, it doesn't have to be that way. You can enjoy the Indian Summer with a handful of great freebies that will help you get out and about for nothing.

Free days out
This weekend is Heritage Open Days Weekend. You can get free entrance to hundreds of iconic buildings around the UK, and special events too. You can get stuck into archaeological excavations in Oxford, a silent disco on Hastings Pier, or take a tour anywhere from Amberley Castle to The National Theatre in London. Details are available on the website.

Free greetings card
If you are on O2, there's a Priority Moments deal running until 13 September, enabling you to get a free card (up to the value of £1.99) from Card Market. It's a great excuse to get in touch with another fellow hermit, and arrange to go out.

Free taxi ride
Uber is offering a £15 taxi ride for free. Latestfreestuff.co.uk have discovered that if you fill in your details (which will include your credit card) and enter the code LFSUBER you'll get the free credit. They warn that it's worth doing this sooner rather and later, before the deals runs out.

Free M&S voucher
If your wardrobe needs a boost before you venture out, you can get your hands on an M&S voucher for nothing. Bespoke Offers, a shopping service from Barclaycard, is encouraging people to try it out, by offering a £10 M&S voucher. If you're planning to buy something online, you just copy the web page link of the item you want, paste it into the search bar on the Bespoke Offers Beat My Price page, and give them 48 hours to find a better price. Then if you buy through the site, they'll credit you with the M&S voucher. It's not a bad way to get something for less - with a freebie on the side.

Free Yoga
If it's your body that could do with a bit of work before you brave the outdoors, Latest Free Stuff has tracked down free live online yoga classes. When you sign up you'll get seven days of online classes of yoga, pilates, core and barre classes for free. You can see the instructor, and if you want to use your webcam they can see you and correct your posture - but you don't have to choose this option. The classes usually cost $9.99 a month, so they're hoping you'll keep going when the freebie runs out, but there's no obligation.
