I have gotten this question several times in the last few years. The answer is really yes and no.

If you sit freebie chasing all day generally it isn’t. Take the time you spent versus the product you receive and it is pretty obvious.

However, that doesn’t mean you should never sign up for freebies. If you see a great freebie, by all means, sign up for it. See a product you wanted to try? It never hurts to “try FOR FREE before you buy”.

I love getting free samples. I have signed up for, and received, quite a few.  My absolute favorites have been mascara.  The other day I received a Covergirl mascara sample. I think it is 3.5 oz. Either way it is just right. There is no way I use enough mascara to use a whole tube of it by the time it should be thrown out yet I use it enough that I like to always have a tube or two. That makes the few minutes I spent signing up for it worth my time.

What do I do with all my free samples?  I have a little basket in my bathroom that I have arranged them all in (along with hotel soaps).  I try ones I am intereted in and use others for company. Sample toothpastes are awesome when a guest forgets toothpaste. 

Some sample sites I like are –

 Woman’s Freebies
 MySavings – Free Stuff

**Please remember that if a free sample sounds too good to be true, it probably. Is. Be careful when you give your personal information out.  I have used all the sites I am passing on to you but this does not mean I vouch for them, nor are we responsible for what oyu do or do not receive from them .
