We got some soft covered booklets from Campbells that were filled with recipies and coupons. We got individual size bags of chips from frito lay. We got samples of new products from tide, downey,dove, clorox handi wipes & oil of Olay.

We also have a local manufacturing company that we got pens & magnets from, so think locally about things you might be able to get.

Checking the freebie sites is the best way to go because your only going to be able to get samples from companies that currently have sample campaigns ongoing. This will save you time in knowing which companies to go after.

Serendipity,

What companies have you had luck with? What types of things did you get? I'm really interested in this. I'm learning all sorts of things on here! :D

Hi! We have had luck in the past by calling companies that presently have sample campaigns going on. Do a search of freebie sites to find out what companies are currently offering free samples of their products. Here is one site www.yes-its-free.com/forums/index.php .
You can put in a google search for freebies and find tons of sites like that.

So we would go to their webstie and get their contact information and call them. They generally were agreeable and we just needed to mail them a letter with a request for x amount of samples and the letter needed to have our tax id # on it.

www.startsampling.com is another good site to see who is currently offering samples. Good Luck!

We are filling "purse" bags we bought at the dollar tree with several samples of items. What I am wondering is this, are there any internet sites of businesses that donate items such as fast food resturants that would donate free food coupons? Or, hair salons that might donate sample packs of hair products? If you know of any or have any ideas I could use, it would be very appreicated! Thank you!
