    Yes, I got two messages from freebie-hunter. Gave him a detailed reply in my first one and he practically ignored my response/advice I took trouble over, in the second one. Next time I shall not bother.

    I got the two PMs from freebie hunter too, ignored both of them as it doesnt sound like something I'd be interested in.

    Free stuff yes, paying for stuff? Not so much...

    I've reported him now because I've got the same message three times which is starting to annoy me! Thanks for letting me know I wasn't the only one getting them :)

  • I got my BuzzSoc box today, the popcorn was lovely :) quite bizarre salty and sweet but delicious and I finished the bag oops.
    The candle smells amazing, I got the Oatmeal, Milk and Honey one, looking forward to trying it later. Also going to try the eyeshadow and nailvarnish today, the lashes will have to wait until a night out though :)
    Overall very pleased. I asked on the BuzzSoc facebook page (through a PM) when the surveys appear on the website and they said 4 days after the order was placed so my surveys should become active on 1st September.

  • Tried the candle and its fab; smells amazing, feels nice on your skin. Expected it to be hot to touch but it isn't. Great product

    I think the key to Buzzsoc's success will be making sure there are plenty of products available to try.

    I wont want to pay £5.95 to get stuff posted to me that I didnt want for free this time. I dont think it will last very long unless there is at least a dozen new items added every month to choose from..

    Yes Hayley, the candle was great! (I had that scent)


    Plushchris....I was trying to work out the logistics of having products available to try that are relevant to men and women. And for everyone to have a good choice each month. Especially as you can't get the same product again.
    Yes, they would need to have at least 10 brand new products each month to test! Just with the selection they have now, they only have about 5 possibles for men, and thats with no choice.

    They are obviously trying to drum up new product clients, but unless they have loads in a short time, I can't think how they are going to move forward at all. I hope they don't fizzle out before they have even taken off :(
  • They are now offering at least another month free. :D
  • Got my box of tricks this morning. Juice, crisps, candle, popcorn, and the tea. Tried the tea out already with breakfast this morning. Different but a good different! Excited to try rest of the items. Anyone seen the September news flash blog? One more month free apparently. So far so good
