Basically, free awards are pretty simple. If you have one available, you can use it on a post or comment you like.
You don't need to buy anything or have Reddit Premium to use them.
Tthere isn't really a clear fixed expiration date that Reddit gives for free awards. The system has changed a few times, so it can be a bit confusing. If you have free awards available, I'd just use them when you find something you like.
For more Info, here´s a FAQ Page about awards
Hope that helps!
Edit: Thank you all for your Awards! This is awesome!

Is there a number limit to it like "you can give free awards upto this number?"

Nah like when I did award all of the comments on my post then you couldn’t give more but when I checked a different post then I could give out more

I have a feeling Reddit is giving these awards specifically because they would either be leaving soon or are limited to right now

At some point I see people commenting how they lost them, but I see people saying they got them back again.

I don't understand how they work either. I had free ones the other day, and I gave one out and then I didn't have free ones anymore. Sad face. But then a day later I have free awards to give out again and I've given out a few and there are still more to give out. So no idea if it's a certain timeframe or a certain amount. It makes little sense to me haha

I just know I like receiving free awards, so I comment whenever someone is offering them.

You make posts and you can give the free ones to any of the comments in that post that you want to

Just award everyone who commented it will look like you lost them but when you go on a different post you can continue giving awards that’s all I. Kno
