I know in first world countries they can get product samples for free. How about here in the Philippines? Are there any freebies or samples that you can get. I know there are contests but the chances of winning can be very slim. Can you guys recommend a site where we Filipinos can also get freebies and product samples? Thanks!

oh I pray for that too. Frugal living. I don't have much. I don't even have a job right now. Prices goes up always. Why can't there be freebies here. I came across one mylot member, about book. She gets to read books for free, in return you answer some questionnaires bout the book. Books are expensive too here in the Philippines. I love books so I totally envy her. I wish Philippines could be like that too. More freebies. FTW! ^_^

nice! good luck on the contest. I like frugally too. Though my parents can provide everything for me. I just don't want to ask for too much right now. haha. thumbs up on trying to be independent. though I know for myself I just can't live without help. If ever you get anything online, please do let me know. It would be really helpful.
Oh BTW. Ever heard of lockerz? I'm a member. You'll just have to watch videos and earn ptz which you can exchange for items for free. It's like mylot, you get to be a member through referals. Let me know if you're interested. Just send me a message with your email. ^^,

I don't care if some people would think that I am a cheapskate but what I am really trying to do is live a frugal life and freebies would really help. I wish for freebies in the Philippines too. I am doing my research online and so far what I found are contest and I am just crossing my fingers that I win one of these days.

yes of course all companies give samples of their product. It's always a part of their marketing strategy to get more customers. They usually dont announce where they will give sample products but they will definitely do this in a place where they could get more customers. I always spot them giving at MRT stations and also at shopping centers. I just got a sample Loreal Paris Shampoo and conditioner yesterday at MRT North Avenue station. :)

well if you mean online then there isnt really that any, its mainly for the US population. But if you look at websites of the local brands companies they sometimes would give you discounts and such. i found a discount for my local magazine subscription.

In malls there are companies that gives free taste test, shampoo/toothpaste/beauty products sachet and my bro always bring home free milo packs i think they give it away for free in toll gates.
I don't know about online sites but I could probably check it out, but if there are product launch I'm sure there's freebie somewhere.
. I have not tried getting a real freebie product, not even a sachet.
