I really wanted to tell people about getting the most out of non-membership, since non-members don't have all the things we members have. Here's some advice for being a non-member, and if you're a member you might learn something too!:
Bambadee's Bracelet
Bambadee is a penguin who is written about in Club Penguin books in the book room, which is at the top of the coffee shop. Pick up the book called Rockhopper and the Stowaway. Flip to the last page of the book, and click on this picture:
When you click on the picture you will receive the Friendship Bracelet, which is usually a non-member's first item.
Card Jitsu Belts & Mask
Card Jitsu is a Club Penguin game where you earn belts after playing an awesome ninja game. Not only is Card Jitsu fun, you get 10 free items from it, 9 of them are belts and one is a Ninja Mask.

Free Items at Parties
At every party on Club Penguin, there is always at least one free item for both non-members and members. While there is often a free members-only item, Club Penguin tries to let non-members enjoy free items. There have been many free items throughout all the parties. Don't worry if you miss a party, many parties come back the next year and the old item from the last party will often return.
Buying Things In Real Life
Due to the fact that Disney now owns Club Penguin, there are now penguin toys with codes. When you go online, you can enter in these codes and get free items out of a secret catalog. Both non-members and members can do this, and the items in the secret catalog are very rare items that will never ever show back up in the normal catalogs.
Note that Tjcb8, Awesome94, and Abbado15 do not recommend non-members to buy Club Penguin toys unless they want the toys in real life or they adore an item in the secret catalog. A majority of the toys are 8$ and only give you 2 items. If you pay 6$ a month and you wisely use your membership, you can get at least 5 items a month for cheaper. Not only that, but that 6$ also gives you access to lots of secret parties and much more!
Becoming a tour guide
If you are at least 40 days old on Club Penguin, you can become a tour guide after taking a test. If you pass the test, you will receive a tour guide hat. ( I am planning to give "being a tour guide" a guide of its own, along with "being an agent" guide. Please wait in the mean time for the guide!)
Colors, Pins, and Backgrounds
When you start Club Penguin, you will get to pick a starting color. You can also buy new colors for 20 coins each in the Gift Shop. You can also buy backgrounds for 60 coins each in the gift shop as well.
Pins are little images that show up in the top of your character's card, which is also where the background appears. Pins will be hidden in certain areas and will often have something to do with that room. By clicking on them after finding them, you can wear them.
Note that some backgrounds are given away for free at parties. For example you see Rockhopper and you click on him. Where the "friend request" button is, there will be a special button that you will get a free background from.
Puffles
Puffles technically are not items, but pets. You can adopt them at the Pet Shop in the Plaza. Non-members can have 2 puffles, while members can have fourteen. There are 8 different kinds of puffles, but only two are available to non-members: red and blue. All puffles cost 800 coins. It is recommended you get one of each. Red puffles can also play Surfing Game with you, so be sure to get the red puffle first.
Puffles have to be taken care of and fed and bathed. This is complicated and hard to explain. It is explained much better in the Puffle Catalog, so go there to have a better explanation.
Puffles can be taken on walks, and are "hand items." Go to your igloo to see your puffles and click on the leash button.
Keep Freezing!
