    say you go into boots wanting freebies/samples.... what do you actually say?

    Do you make out you're going to buy the full size product if you like it or something.

    Just asking bcos ive never done it

    In boots i go to the pufume counter say i am intrested in buying a aftershve for my husband for his birthday are there any samples i could give him to try, while they are getting the mens ones then say, any new ladies purfume samples at the moment. Usually get a good result!! But when you use the print out from the first post they just hand them over. No questions

  • i usually say, have you anything for '...' skin type? and then say ive had a sensitivity in teh past and id like to try before i buy or i just be cheeky and say 'i know im being cheeky but can i have a sample of....'? or if its a new product thats being advertised instore and on telly etc. you can bet that theyll be sampling it (especially perfumes) so then ill say, 'i got an email (or mailing) sayign i could come instore and pick up a sample of...' coz the companies actually do that, and half the time i do get those mailings anyway (i just go to each of the 11 stores near me that have beauty counters in them instead of just the 1 youre supposed to!!) hehe! :)

    This is great Julie, well done! :T :T :T

    I remember when I last went to London - had made a huge list with all the samples I had to get, and where from, and was carrying loads of printed vouchers in my handbag. I was feeling great, and sooo excited! :cool: It was a lovely day, unforgettable indeed (sunny weather, lovely cappuccino - and of course, some great shopping and free samples :j ).

    You won't believe this, but today I spent a lot of time making 'the' big list, for my next trip to London (don't know when exactly, should be either in October or November) - yay :j

    Once again, well done girl! :A

    P.S.: Can't wait to get the Lanvin sample from Liberty. ;)

    nice one Julie :T
    I'm going to London on Sunday till Wednesday. Vouchers and list ready :D
    I hope they get the Issey Miyake delivery by monday, it's one of my favourite :rolleyes:

    I received the Estee Lauder night repair samples by post today. Also visited an Estee Lauder counter where there were no fragrance samples available, so the lady gave me a sample of Aeromatte pressed powder, very nice with a mirror and sponge. :j
