I've enjoyed getting all the freebies over the last couple of years and was thinking, what do the companies get out of it. Then i realised that i now buy Charles Worthington shave stuff, original source tea tree and mint shower gel, echo by davidoff and loads of other products that i initially got as a freebie but now buy regularly.
So all you companies out there, post more freebies and we will send for them, and if they are good products we will buy, its not just a one sided thing.
so you lot what do you now buy that started with a freebie!

I also started buying the original source stuff - it just smells so great! I also started buying Yorkshire tea - it's loads better than normal tea!

yorkshire tea, original source, oil of olay, I think samples are important especially with perfume and make up, cos people are reluctant to spend £15 on foundation that looked good on their hand and when it goes on your face it turns you orange! I have drawers full of cosmetics that aren't right for me!

I also brought the full size version of some of the perfumes as presants because they smelt so nice!
Boots No 7 Essential Moisture moisturiser - I was surprised to find it performed better than the more expensive brand that I preferred! Elizabeth Arden Green Tea perfume. Redbush tea. Cravendale milk. Lots, really, now I come to think of it!

I buy the Original source shower gels since my freebie. Also, will buy Boots Time Delay hand cream and face wipes in future (when run out of my small stash!). The Head and Shoulders shampoo and conditioner I received the other day is good so may buy this also. :happyhear

Many of the freebies i recieve i do start to buy,Fairy non bio,Original source,Avon,Ovaltine etc so really i do believe that it works both ways but many company's do give enough samples.
