There is nothing cheap about asking for the free stuff. Unfortunately there is not too much more you can do. You should know to keep your Organize well below the 100 card maximum, as it will lock you out as soon as you hit that 100 card mark. Make sure that if you trade cards away, to remove them from you Org. fast or they will build up. This includes emptying the Trash whenever you put something in there. I have seen too many people neglect to do this and end up losing out.
Personally (I am a paid member) if I was in your situation I would keep the cards to around 60-70 to give myself maximum room to play with. This enables you to make some decent sized trades without clogging you Org. Also, you should keep your PC cards out of your Org. if you are not paid. This will ensure that a good chunk of your traders are in there at all times.
Player card searches are also free! You can see how many cards a player has, what types, what years, etc. There is no way to see who has your wants en-mass yet, but they are working on it. Should there be a few select cards that you are looking for, just click on the cards' description and scroll down until you see the Want and and Have To Trade sections. The members listed there will have what you are looking for available to trade. One thing that you should be aware of is inactive members. The profiles are still around, but they are not. Check the last login date to see how long it has been since they have been on the site.
Finally the Trade Tool. It is a free feature and you can use it at any time. It is the only way to trade here on Beckett.com, so take advantage of it. Find someone that has something that you like and start a trade with them. Keep in mind that most people will ask you to send first until your trade feedback is above 20 positive. It's an unwritten rule, but some do use it.
Here are a few links that detail the site. It's a load to read, but very detailed.

So what other free things can I do that do not require paying for the membership thing I believe that just the price guide? what are some parts of the site I should take a look at?
and I hope I dont sound cheap asking about free things?
