Each day when the mail comes I'm always hoping that I am getting some sort of a free sample. I sign up for free samples on the internet with all kinds of companies. I absolutely love getting free samples. Those free samples have come in handy for many things. Sometimes I even get some kind of free food to try. What a treat that is. Do you look for free samples and get excited when they come in the mail?

I get free samples all the time in the mail. Free toothpaste, skin care products, hair products, anti aging products, all kinds of stuff. Yes I love getting free stuff. I have some sites on my blog where you can sign up for free stuff, discounts, coupons etc. One site I recommend is IOUfreebies.com. I am a member of several sites.

I love all of the beauty samples. Especially when I don't want to buy a full size of something before I try it. I belong to Walmart and Thunderflap for freebies. Could you pm me the sites you belong to for your samples?

Yes, I like the beauty samples too. I received a sample of eb5 facial firming cream and that stuff works pretty good. I have them all listed on my blog in my profile if you want to sign up from there. There is a post in my archives under coupons, savings, and deals. I can pm the names of them if you prefer though. Thanks!

It's good to have free samples mailed to our door step occasionally. We could try out new stuff and get ourselves updated with the release of the latest product. It's really cool However, this does not happen in my country. When I was relocated in U.S. years back, I enrolled in some market survey program and received some samples to try out. But I have fill up the opinion forms after I have tried out the experimental product. The very first product that I tried out was a roll of tissue paper. It's said to be tough and couldn't be torn apart easily when we wipe the dripping washed dish.

I agree with you. Trying new things before buying them can help us to avoid buying the wrong things. It would be waste of money if buy the things which do not suit our needs. Unfortunately, stores in our place seldom give free samples for us to try out. We will only know after we bought and tried it out. Happy posting and have a nice day!

You can go under Walmart's website they have a column that says free samples. Also the website Thunderflap and you can do a search for "free samples".

I haven't gotten much lately, but in the past I've gotten lotions, shampoos, conditioner samples, munchies from places like Kashi and Sara Lee (non-perishable), and makeup samples. I am currently looking for a new, good sample site - any ideas?

I haven't received makeup samples before but I have gotten perfume samples. Which site were you using? The ones I use are Walmart and Thunderflap.

Wow I love the thought. Hmmm... I like free samples. Whenever we go to department stores me and my cousins are shy to get closer to free taste or samples in the corner but I'd really want to. I have never tried to sign up on net for samples, cool! I would like to try.

You shouldn't be shy about it. Just walk right up and get your freebie.

Free samples are a way to get the customers invited into the product.If the free sample runs out, it causes more people to actually buy the product.The talk to it with there friends which attracts more and more customers .Free samples come in handy for many things....

has anybody seen the samples they give in market stores or the mall? it includes Chinese people offering samples of their foods. They sound funny, but the food is awesome!

I like free samples also. I don't get many but am very willing to take a survey which gives me a sample then asks me questions.

I love free samples too, but I often find myself bombarded with them, and they sit in a box because they are too plentiful.

You could always take them to your local church. They donate them to people in need.

I get free samples from people I buy stuff in the internet and I love the free stuff. I review the products and if I like the products I write a review for them and about the seller for free in my blog. When they learn that I write stuff on my blog they keep sending me other great freebie stuff or give me discounts on my next purchase.

That's a great idea. How do you get the people to your blog? Do you work for a certain company?

I am hesitant to try free samples specially at the mall because of the people who told me to do not try it or you will get sick. Yeah, stupid of me. But i would like to try it someday. And also i am afraid that all those free samples from the internet are spam :(.

I always look for free samples, but I never ever get any! I sometimes think they are a scam so I don't even bother! I do get the free samples from Costco!I love costco! My sister works there part time! I always sneak in to see her!

Maybe you are not looking in the right places. I haven't had any scams from the freebies yet.

I used to really get alot of them, but lately I have not found so many. I used to be able to get lots of laundry soap samples and deodorant. I did look forward to them.

I love free samples too. I've signed up for quite a few over the years but only one ever really came in the mail so I've became kind of worried giving out my address like that. I like free samples in real life though. Especially chocolate. My uncle used to take me with him to See's Candy to buy chocolates and I would get a free sample Those were good.

I get a lot of them, too. I use them for emergency supplies, pack them away in my storm room. I like the product try outs, too. I recently got to try out a carpet shampoo device--I got the device and a cash payment, too! I love those types of things.

They are perfect for emergency supplies. Also for if you ever have guests staying over.

hi there. i used to shy away from free samples and all. however, when i got to try products that i wouldn't even budge reading about, i appreciated the samples. samples help you decide in making a purchase or not. so, keep those samples coming. too bad, nothing is sent through mail for me. but, hurrah! for you guys. i hope there is a company who is generous enough to give perfume samples. ;-)

Hee hee! I got into that when my first one was born and I had some time to be on the computer to sign up for that stuff. I remember I'd sign up for a bunch of stuff and forget about it - and then a month or two later I get nice surprises in the mail. How cool is that? I found that we actually tried the food samples, but rarely tried the shampoos, floss, and other stuff like that. So I've stopped getting those kinds of free stuff because they'd just pile up. But I will continue to get the food samples (you get a coupon anyway) - and once and a while you can sign up for a tshirt or a kids cup. I've gotten some neat cookbooks too! Yay for free stuff - hee hee!

Being surprised by the mail is worth the wait for the samples.

I remember the time when I am still a child. If I saw stalls that displays sample products, I am getting one. I collect it from many stalls and after that, I found out that I'm not hungry anymore.:)

If you can find a store with free food samples you can basically eat a whole meal there for free.
