If you decide to hit up a big search engine for free samples, you’re probably going see that there are millions of sites out there who claim to have free product samples, when in reality, a lot are looking to have you enter your credit card number.

I would advise against entering my credit card number on a free samplesite unless it is a big company like a Walmart or Mars, Inc. If it’s really a free sample, they should only be asking for your shipping address and some basic information to make sure you get the product. If it’s a product you really like, it may not be too unreasonable to give them your email. Especially since they will tell you once they ship things to you.

If a company is trying to get you to pay a shipping cost for your supposedly free product sample, then it’s really not entirely free. Sometimes, this still makes sense, but you want to make sure you are not paying five dollars for something worth only five dollars or god forbid, three dollars.

When you are getting free samples, try to stay away from things which are offering incentives. IE. you can get this free sample, but only if you fill out 2 online surveys and order a cable TV subscription. That isn’t free!

Do larger companies give out samples absolutely free? Why would they do that? You bet they do and the reason is simple. Companies feel that once you try their product and enjoy it, you will only need to buy it a few more times for them to make their money back.

Companies like Proctor & Gamble who make brands like Charmin, Bounce and Cover Girl regularly have free stuff floating out there.

I recommend when getting free samples online, going with a top online Ad company like Freeflys so you only have to sign up once and don’t get inundated with ads from dozens of different companies.
