Where do you get free samples?

Answer 1

Many people enjoy receiving free samples or "freebies" of new or favorite products. Some people find reputable websites that help connect consumers with the types of samples they want. Some companies require consumers to fill in surveys to obtain free sample products or coupons.

Some internet survey companies want people willing to receive products to try out. After using the product (often which has no labels), the consumer must fill out a short questionnaire about what they liked or didn't like about the product.

Often, getting samples or even full products is as easy as calling the manufacturer or distributor and asking for a sample or a free coupon to try a product. It helps to say you are considering switching to their product but wonder if they can send a sample to try.

Physicians often give "free" sample size medications, given under the physician's professional license as a person authorized in the State / Country in which they practice to prescribe medications. Often, all a patient needs to do is ask. Patients with limited income should tell their doctors and ask if the pharmaceutical representative left samples of the needed medication.

Some types of "free samples" or "free coupons" to obtain a product include:

• deodorant
• shampoo
• "medicated" shampoo, such as for dandruff
• perfumes (often given at perfume counters in department stores; or through Avon or other privately-owned franchise businesses)
• food products
• snacks
• soda pop; juices
• cigarettes; cigars
• liquid hand sanitizers
• herbal preparations
• hand or body lotions

Also, anytime you have a problem with a purchased product, call the company and describe the problem. Often, they ask for your name and address and send you free coupons to try the product again/replace the "problem-product" you had purchased. They may ask you to return any unused portion of the "problem-product" and they send a pre-paid label for free shipping. It is important to never abuse the consumer right to complain, since companies do keep track of complaints. Be honest. Praise the product if you like it's typical benefits and express disappointment about the "problem-product". Ask nicely for a replacement, if possible. Most companies are eager to keep customers and to "make things right".
