No, there is no upgrade price for standalone Outlook, much less a freebie. There is, however, an upgrade version of Office 2003. You might want to wait a while to see if Microsoft offers a "technology guarantee" that will get you Office 2007 when it comes out early next year.

Hello,

I bought MS XP Office Edition about two years ago and I have an old version
of Outlook on my computer. I was wondering if there is any way I can update
my Outlook to a newer version without cost.

Thanks in advance for your help.
