Wait a Long Time for Samples


Review of FreeSamples.com


FREESAMPLES.COM is a website that lets you order free samples of variety of different products. They have the following categories currently on the site with samples: automotive, beauty & spa, candy & gum, entertainment, food & beverage, for your kids, health, household, personal care, and pets.


I joined just about one year ago. After browsing the various categories, I noticed that many product samples were unavailable, while some entire categories were out of stock. When I was fairly new to this site, I wasn’t sure if that was the norm. I hoped it was not. Several months later, the samples supplies dwindled even lower!


On my first day after signing up I was able to order a sample size of Aquafresh Active Dental Gum and a 1 oz. bag of Coffee Shop Coffee Candy. After you sign up, which simply involves giving them your name and mailing address, and a few preferences of types of products you are most interested in, you are allowed to order samples.


After I selected the gum, I was taken to a screen in which I was asked to fill out a very small questionairre on gum in general, such as how often do I chew gum, and what is my favorite brand of gum, etc.


After choosing the coffee-flavored candy, similarly, I was taken to a short survey asking me for my candy eating habits.


The samples came in the mail quite soon after ordering. Less than two weeks, which I feel is reasonable. Afterall, they must have thousands upon thousands of people like myself who are trying to get something for nothing!


The products arrived in a sturdy box with FREESAMPLES.COM emblazened in red across the side which provides instant advertising. A neighbor asked me what that was, and I referred her to the site. Everything was packaged well, and wrapped nicely.


There is a little insert in the box reminding you to go back to the site and order more samples soon. You are allowed to order only every two weeks, although sometimes they are promoting special offers for which there is no waiting period between orders.


I have just placed another sample order for Zest body wash. The selections were quite picked over. That was the only product I could order. I hope they have more in stock soon, as they must know how popular getting free samples is to people surfing the net. I hope if you decide to check it out, you will have a bit of fun trying some new things. While I had heard of all the other products I tried, I had never heard of Coffee Shop Coffee Candy. I’m now a convert. Get your fix today, while supplies last!


If you enjoy getting something for nothing, you will most likely enjoy visiting this site and trying samples. The downside is that often when I visit the site, they say they are ’’out’’ of any samples. I wonder if this is because I’m an older member. When I first joined, I was able to receive quite a lot of samples during the first several months. But lately, they are always ’’out’’ of any samples I happen to want! I’d give it a try; you may be one of the lucky ones who finds the samples in stock.
