definately is good for possible nomination of the month £50 award and I would like to apologise for telling the company where I heard about the offer and I sincerely hope you get your orders.I hope this can be an end to this now as I dont want to be blamed if no orders are sent out as this offer is hugely popular and if I didnt message the company they would have still had a big order to deal with so again I am sorry.Going over to post an nomination for this to be post of the month now

No need to apologise, Tulip. As xellieqx pointed out earlier, they would have found out where all that extra site traffic was coming from eventually and, if you'd lied about it, you may have looked bad to them, and felt bad yourself. You probably wouldn't have been the only person to tell them about the site anyway (think of how many people must read this site without posting any comments). I think some people are just quick to blame other people when they feel disappointed.

PS Congratulations to your mum on her forthcoming 40th wedding anniversary - 40 years is quite impressive! :T

Ethical Juicers are a great company, I bought their nut milk maker (not online - at a vegan show) and I have known of them for a long time.

If there was a company that I would support wholeheartedly it is them, they are truly ethical, not like some companies that pretend to be ethical and then instead make a mess of the world (e.g. Supermarkets etc....).

I am delighted (and a little surprised) at what lenghts they went to get the freebies for all the requests! I hope that from this exercise they will get more customers, after all as MSErs we should really encourage companies like them!

Wow,over 12,000 responses in what?2 days or less.That is powerfull advertising!!!Now if I had a business(and I do)I would be thinking about what sort of freebie offer I could let people here find out about;) .
I wonder what sort of % of people who take up these freebie offers look at the rest of the goods available for sale and actually order something else at some stage.
They have also just increased their customer database by an amazing amount.This can't be all bad for them.

Less than 4% of people on average will go on to purchase an item. That was researched on 17 UK companies so should be quite accurate.

When requesting free samples using links on this site, I always say that I have been referred by a friend:D I view all my fellow freebie hunters as friends:cool:

Its actually from the Barclays bank business start up guide, not the thin one you can pick up, the box file size one. You can ask the business account manager to view it , you just can't take it away with you. It's a very interesting read, also tells you which businesses are the most successful.

This is the way the world is going. That's why they ban everything due to health and safety (worried about getting sued).. everyone wants something for nothing. You can't expect a small company to bankrupt itself because it doesn't have a legal team on hand to make sure it's freebies offers are "water tight". Soon all anyone will get is sample sachets from big companies (after spending 10mins filling in a form and signing away all your personal details to their partner companies) because smaller companies will be terrified of this happening.

All publicity is good publicity, maybe?!

And I don't think anyone can dispute that, in the realm of freebies, this site is definately a victim of its own success!
