You can't get boxed software for free, of course.  You can get boxed sets of 
FreeBSD, and it'll be free (as in free speech) but it won't be free (as in 
free beer).  You can get no-money FreeBSD off the web, or for-money FreeBSD 
at some retail outlets or on the web.

I'd get it from http://www.bsdmall.com myself.  They support FreeBSD as well 
as selling packages of it, but if you search around on the web, it shouldn't 
be too hard to find it other places.
