Ah, it's been a while since I did this!
I have a huge bundle of skincare samples from about a year ago, which I have yet to use (I used a few, but some of them brought me out in swelling/rashes)!
Yesterday I sent emails to about 30 companies (food products) asking for samples, and the ones that have replied mainly said no outright, which is fair enough. I changed my tactics back to complimenting, and I've had promises of vouchers from Krispy Kreme and Innocent!0 -
just had 4 emails this morning with promise of samples/products: from l'oreal for elvive and hair mask both sending a product to me, tetleys tea sending me a sample and bio oil sending a sample also.
it's getting exciting now! i've been looking around my house at products i buy regulary to go and compliment to companies on, and ive been getting alot of voucher/sample promises! so we shall see what comes through my door in the next week! x
Goals: Save £500 for emergencies, Save £200 of Amazon vouchers for Xmas, fix my holey clothes!

I had nothing today :O i'm putting together a christmas box for my brothers family (him, girlfriend, my baby nephew and 2 dogs) with presents but also some food and treats, mostly freebies that I have got or stuff I have got from vouchers and probably a few samples. I'm up to about 115 companies at the moment, got some more samples and other bits promised. Will mail when they arrive.0
