Free Samples-Reasons to Take Advantage

Many different brands offer free samples either through a store (ex. Walmart) or through their own website. These are valuable in the fact you get to sample new products, but also for the coupons that may come with the free sample.

One easy way to find these deals is to bookmark Walmart's free sample site (click here to go there). There is a new sample of Cottonelle toilet paper, so make sure to take advantage!

Just this week I received a free sample of Total cereal (Cranberry Almond) and a sample size Dove Deodorant in the mail. The Total came with a coupon, which I plan on using at some point! So, not only did they give me a product for free, I now know I like it and when I find a good sale I can pick up some more at a near-free price!

Another positive: The coupons that come with the samples often have far off expiration dates! While most coupons usually have a 1-3 month range period, the coupons in samples are usually good for over a year. This insures that I can really take advantage of a good deal when it comes along.

And if you are ever on the fence about whether to sign up for a deal or not, remember you can always donate the item if you decide when it arrives that it really isn't something you are interested in. Since the stockpile of deodorant is quite high already for both my fiancee and I, I plan on just tossing the sample in with the bag for donations.

Hope this is helpful!
