What's with all of the FREE samples?

If you're new to couponing, you may not appreciate the value of FREE sample offers.  Not only do you get to try new products, there are 2 often overlooked benefits to getting these FREEbies in the mail...

1.  These products make great substitutions for things you may usually purchase (ex: take a sample shampoo on vacation instead of purchasing a travel-sized bottle AND save room in your suitcase...OR they can make great additions to gift baskets)

2.  Sample products usually come with a coupon or two...so if you like the product, you can wait for a sale and get a great deal on the full sized product.

So, I'm not crazy or trying to waste your time/energy when I post all of the FREE sample deals.  I hope that you have a new appreciation for what these samples really are...money in your pocket!
