Free Samples
« on: March 03, 2016, 08:07:52 am »
A couple of years ago I used to get many free samples. Now I don't see too many offers or places giving free samples. I still get a few from time to time. How about you?

Don't go to many stores... I know my Sams Club have food samples and also a sample vending machine (the one tht scans ur membership card and dispenses candy, vitamins, snacks, detergent pods etc)...  The Korean store also have fruits, korean bbq sauce with meat, and dumplings

So did I, but these days it does not seem to be many places that offer those. I see a lot of sites on the  web that say if you sign up you can receive free samples of different types of products, but I am a little leery of that so have never tried.

Same here.  Since 2000 I have got a ton of stuff.  I wrote everything down in a notebook and then hilighted when I received.  These days there are not many offers of free samples and even if I find the offer I don't ever receive it.

   I know what you mean! I used to get "full-size bottles of expensive perfumes" by mail by requesting them online.

I belong to this thing Pinchme and every Tuesday or every other Tuesday you can pick samples of what they have and they will mail it to you. I like the website. You should try it.

Many companies will still send you a free sample (or a coupon for one) if you are willing to write to them. Although they don't tend to send out the free samples unsolicited like they used to do, they still try to please people that they know are customers of theirs. Esp. if you mention how you like one of their older products but haven't tried their new one that they just put out on the market. Also, some surveys will send you samples to try out, but with the condition of having to fill another survey after you have tried the product.
