maybe it was a reward from godaddy itself.they no such way u can get it for free unless the registrar offered to you.but u still can get free domain, buy won contest that offered domain as a prizes. just my thoughts :)
Easy free website or blog builder and Excellent free domain or subdomain website hosting (no ads). You can just use a subdomain from them if you do not want to purchase a domain now.http://www.000webhost.com/204608.html
A .com for free is impossible.
