  A big problem with Audible is that you can't search for titles by price. That makes it very difficult to find free titles. But, there are workarounds. Lifehacker dealt with this issue in Aug 2012 - Score Free Audiobooks from Audible with a Simple Google Search.
  
  I'd like to give special thanks to skinmaan for his threads Audible freebies and Free audiobook short stories. Most of the initial titles were gleaned from those threads.
