  • Why the Ladies Should Request Free Feminine Samples

    *If you are a male stumbling across this post, you can either 1.) run away in embarrassment or 2.) pass this valuable information to the ladies of the house!

    One of my favorite free samples to sign up for is for the feminine products that come a long my way. See the picture above. Quite a nice stash, huh? Feminine products are always “improving” and there are always free samples to be requested (Playtex, Tampax, Kotex, O.b., Poise, Always, Carefree, Stayfree, Tena) In fact, I find myself posting free feminine products quite often–and I sign up for all of them! The companies are generous in their samples as they usually send at least three tampons, at least three pads, or a little of both. There are high value coupons in just about every free sample I get. When you do this times four or five companies, you have created “a box” of tampons or a “bag” of pads in no time!

    We all know how expensive feminine products are, and as frugal as I am, I see no point in spending hard earned dollars on products that are going to end up in the landfill. Sign up for your free samples that come your way and start creating your own stash of feminine products.

  • Mailbox Freebie Roundup

    I received several free samples with coupons in the mail after coming back from vacation. Speaking of vacation, I took all of my free samples with me, such as shampoo/conditioner, toothpaste, lotion, and deodorant and used most of them up! They came in handy!

    I received two more letters with coupons: coupons for Whiskas Cat Food/Treats and coupons for Folgers coffee! Have you been writing to companies requesting coupons?
    Here are all of my free magazines I have been getting! I have quite a bit of reading to catch up on!
