Everyone wants something for nothing. It's true in real life, and it's true in Facebook's premier farming game Farmville. And when it comes to Farmville, coins are where it's at -- everyone wants free coins.

Lots of Farmville players might assume that getting coins for free is next to impossible. In reality, that couldn't be further from the truth! There's a simple, sure-fire method to getting free coins and it's much more obvious than you might think. It's in the gifts that you're probably already receiving almost every time you log in to Farmville.

Let's be absolutely clear about this: Gifts equal profit. It doesn't cost you anything to receive them, so when you sell them, you're getting FREE COINS! "But what about my friends?" you might be asking. "Won't it hurt their feelings if I sell their gifts?" Probably not. But if you're really worried about this, just tell them that they're helping you get free coins. If you explain to them how the method works - so they can get free coins, too - they'll probably actually just end up THANKING you!

The only way this method will work is if you're getting gifts often. In order to be getting gifts often, there are two key prerequisites. The first is to have friends in Farmville, and the second is that you're being sent gifts by those friends.

Do you have friends in Farmville? It's very likely that you do, given the huge popularity of the game on Facebook. Just check the "My Neighbors" tab at the top of the playing window to find out for sure.

However, if you really don't have any of them, it's easy to get your Facebook friends to join you in Farmville. Just click the "Invite Friends" tab at the top, select the friends you want to invite and then click "Send Farmville Request."

Maybe sending invitations from Farmville seems impersonal. If this is true for you, there's another option, which is to send a Facebook message to those friends that you'd like to start playing Farmville. Sending personal messages is a somewhat friendlier approach, so you might be able to get more people to join Farmville that way.

OK, so now you have friends in Farmville. What if they aren't sending you gifts? The solution is simple -- just follow the Golden Rule, "Do unto others what you would have them do unto you."

In other words, if you want gifts from your friends, make sure you're sending THEM gifts! They'll probably be happy to reciprocate, and in time, you should have a steady stream of gifts - and thus free coins - coming in daily from your friends.
