There are 4 fat quarters and then gift/gifts valued at $20. It can be one thing or you can put many things in. People will make up little package like things to include thread, seam rippers, rulers, chalk, whatever quilters use. Buy things on sale and you can actually make things go farther. I buy all year long when I find things on sale.
I've found nice thread at $1, seam rippers at 10cents, rulers for just a few bucks. Sometimes patterns/books will be marked down at a great price and I'll pick those up.
Don't forget, you can repurpose things too. Say someone sent you a pattern. You used it a few times, but don't really need it anymore. You can put that in. Those sorts of things, I really put no price on, so that would be considered a "freebie" in my opinion.
