More New Walmart Offers

Saturday May 3, 2008
A Benfiber sample and a Poise product sample have just been added to the Walmart free offers. At this writing the Poise product listed on the offer description page was different than the product listed on the actual order page. I guess it will be surprise when it arrives in your mailbox.

Walmart had free sample offers for Emergen-C pink lemonade fizzy drink and two toothpaste samples for a short time earlier this week. I suspect we may see them again next week. You can find all the current offers on the Walmart offers profile page.

Whatever your thoughts about Walmart, you have admit they know how to market. They continue to host an assortment of free sample offers in an effort to try keep us consumers consuming. Do free sample offers like those presented by Walmart get you to actually buy the products? Let us know in the comments section below.

The Walmart freebies have help me in deciding if I want to purchase or product or not. I particularly like items such as lotion and toothpaste. This way I can tell if I like the fragrance, smell, or taste of item without having to buy a full size product.

If I haven’t tried the product yet then the freebie does help me decide if I should buy it or not.
Plus I enjoy posting freebies on my blog for others.

When I get a sample from Walmart, and I really like the product, then I buy it. I have liked more products than I disliked. I appreciate the samples because it gives me a chance to test them on me. Then I don’t waste money buying things I wouldn’t use.

I like the chance to sample a product before buying something I don’t like the smell or taste of. I often buy the product after sampling. Please keep offering.

I have bought several products after trying them, especially new ones that I had never heard of before. I love the Wal-Mart free samples site, it is a great way to try out new products!

I agree with everyone. As a college student, I don’t have money to waste on products I might or might not like. Trying free samples is also really fun!

Because of your website, my Kitty Cat “found” the food of her choice - we had tried many (free), she is VERY happy now, therefore I am also.

It’s great to be able to sample a product in small quantities before buying a large size. Keep ‘em coming!!!

I only request the free samples I am interested in. After sampling I probably buy 1/2 to 3/4s of the samples I requested. A wonderful way to find out about new and/or overlooked products on the grocery shelves!!!!

They definitely work, especially if there’s enough for the whole family to try because I’m a sucker when my kids are involved. We like new things.
