    it says on the front page of their website -
    For free samples please send a stamped self-addressed envelope to the address below. " just send them a SAE. It would amazingly bad CS to not honor this.

    They have probably been overwhelmed by people from freebie sites asking for samples and have now changed it to a small charge.
  • They haven't got that offer for SAE on website anymore!!! They now talk about a 'sample bag' for £2.50 (I can't remember exactly how much).

    got mine yesterday. Tried them today, but cant say I was too impressed. Had dribbled tangerine juice down my T shirt last night and it was still there after I did the laundry using the soapnuts. There was also marks left on another top. Used 8 shells, more than suggested in directions for use. So, sorry, they have all gone on the compost.

    What a coincidence! My son's top also still had tangerine juice on it :eek:. They did manage to get lots of other muck and dirty marks off though so maybe they don't like citrus :confused:

    the offer is still open but need SAE.
  • I ordered some and am waiting on them arriving (Bought some to try, I like the idea........if they work and dont discolour my clothes) Will let you know what I think when they arrive.........I like the eco-friendly part as well as the moneysaving theory. I hope they're worth it xx

  • I changed my mind about using them when I saw what they looked like! I would have loved to have been converted to eco-washing but these are just not for me...
