One way to save money is to find free samples online, as many times they come with a coupon to help lower the cost of the next one. I received in the mail today a free product from Smiley 360. Its a tube of Arm & Hammer Sensitive Whitening with Baking Soda. You can get a free sample at byebyetoothpain.com United States only while supplies last. I'm not sure what flavor you will receive, but mine is Frosted Mint.
Please post if they run out and hope many of you can try the toothpaste.

Thanks! I signed up for my sample. I used to get a lot of samples but there aren't as many out there as there used to be. I think it's because "sampling" newsletters and sites had people stampeding toward anything free, no matter if they would use it or not. I never sent for anything I wasn't interested in. I have very sensitive teeth and maybe this will be better than Sensodyne. I just bought Crest Pro yesterday that claims to be good for sensitive teeth and a dozen other things as well. Luckily, it was on sale.
I belong to BzzAgent and that gives me a lot of new products to try. Just the other day I picked up a new type of cake priced at $10 for free because BzzAgent gave me a coupon. I'm also a member of PineCone Research that occasionally gives me free products to try. I really enjoy trying new things and I often buy them after I try them.

I often buy them after getting a product for free also. Bzz Agent is a great site and have tried many products that have been sent to me. I do agree that many times people request samples and don't use them, so others don't get a chance to try something they would use now. Thanks for posting.

I hope you receive the sample. Its while supplies last, so realize not everyone may get it. The economy is so bad and everyone is working hard to save money. Thanks for posting.

I thought it was just poor people like me who got excited over free samples, but it appears people of all economics like free samples. I used to use free samples in Christmas stockings, and the coupons of course I'd use if it was a product that I needed. It's funny how excited I get about free samples. It's almost like, happy birthday to me!

I was wondering if the problem was just my computer. I'm hoping its not gone, as have had a bad feeling the last few weeks.
I think people of all income levels want to try products. Many of my friends will eat samples around the stores in the upper income levels. The first time I saw celebrities getting samples my mouth dropped and now its normal.
Several years ago one famous celebrity told me he puts his clothes on one leg at a time, as people were treating him like a god. He is right and I'll admit he is thrifty and has even commented on talk shows about being thrifty. Its one way to be well off by spending money wisely.

I love free samples, as many of the products are generously sized, so I can get an accurate opinion for the product. Its great to see companies want us to use their products. Thanks for posting.

I figure they are all free and makes a savings for me. I keep extra little bottles around because there are times when I will get more than one of the same product so I just combine them. Soon there will be four of us so I am really going for the samples. Have a great day.

I'm a member of the site and agree that site has a lot of useful information. USA does have great deals and wish it helped with housing costs, but that just means I have to work harder at making money to pay for housing. Thanks for posting.

OH thanks! This is great. I need toothpaste for my travel bag. Traveling is not a favorite thing of mine but I have to do it so I'm always looking for freebies to add to my bag. Just waiting for my confirmation email now. By the way, I posted a free sample for chocolate. Mmmm, chocolate.

I'm headed to your post shortly. I'm a chocolate lover and hoping I haven't done it. Samples are a great way to lower bills and pay nothing for the products. Thanks for posting.

It sure is great to be able to try out products. Some of them I wouldn't be using today, if I hadn't received a free one first. I still use my Ziploc Round Containers because of the free ones. I'm using a glass that was free because of a promotion right now and if I ever need more glasses will buy from the company. Thanks for posting.

Back in 2009 and 2010...I did samples and I collected enough toothpaste and shampoo and condition and lotions of all new, name brands, that I didn't have to buy any of that for a year! I have saved some for travel purposes, but these days, the samples are few and far between. And...from my experience, you have to join their facebook page to get one and I just don't care anything about having to go through all that just for a free sample..unless it is a good one and a decent size. I started doing it, but the sample I would get would be a one time only sample...not worth the time to deal with Facebook!

Facebook has been a alright for me and think its a matter of what samples are on our page. My daughter is offered different samples than I am and so they are paying attention to age and the fact I'm married and she isn't married. I'll admit she gets some sample offers that surprise me.
I have received some great items including free dinners from Facebook, so its worth it for me to be a member. My husband and I have saved a lot of money going to restaurants we would have never tried except for the great deal. Thanks for the post.

Yes getting and asking free samples are good way of saving and also knowing the product first hand before buying . Beside that we can get extremely good bargain while buying online through the various online marketing website like groupon and etc. For example weekend dinner with family can be bought online with the family package meal dinner with 30% discount if bought online and such.

Thanks for mentioning Groupon, as if members haven't of mentioned it I would have never tried it. You can get some great deals. Thanks for posting and online deals can mean the difference between going out to lunch or staying home.

what type of samples you are meaning.if they are giving sample products at freee of cost,then it must be scam or some harmful products. is it?

The sample I just received is toothpaste and I'm using it now. Last week I received some coffee samples and have received many products over the year. No scam companies want us to try their products, as they know we won't buy it without trying it or somebody we know tries it.
There are many toothpaste companies that have sent me samples including Crest and Colgate to big brand companies. Keep in mind they know many people will only buy the generic product. I can get the name brand product for less than the generic with a good coupon and a sale. I haven't paid for toothpaste for many years by using a coupon and waiting patiently.
