The experienced players out there might opt to use their heaps of gold over at Blizzard to purchase additional time, meaning you can keep your cash in your wallet.
Without further digression, here's how to play WoW completely free.

If your subscription has become stagnant, you will have an account that gets reverted to similar restrictions that apply to a free account, except for the ability to allow your main character to jump into the same Guild as your other characters.

Back in April 2015, there was a World of Warcraft update which saw the introduction of WoW Tokens. Tokens are items that players can obtain as part of a World of Warcraft 30 day subscription. Players can use real money to purchase Tokens to sell on in the auction house in-game in exchange for gold. Doing so essentially allows you to buy the game using the gold you get from playing the game. Free accounts don't have access to the auction house, and World of Warcraft tokens are pretty pricey, meaning this is not a possible option to continue playing for free. In other words, if you decide to reap the fruits of a 30-day subscription, you can easily maintain your subscription for free with the use of tokens.
