    :D this is true, i used to work there! go in and ask for a sample, if your buying something anyway they will usually give you something without asking. do remember not to take advantage tho as those girls are trying to earn a living and they wont do that by giving free products away to everyone!!! the products are fab and excellent quality so treat yourself to something too while your there xx

    If you go to the website and vote for your favourite product, you get entered into a draw to win a years supply of that product. :j

    I used to love the Banana shampoo!

    Since I've had my 'love your body' card I've received 7 stamps - i.e. I've spend more than £70.. but not once have I been given a sample!

    I am all for taking free stuff from the Body Shop, but just wanted to add a reminder that it is now owned by L'oreal, in which Nestle has a large and profitable share. Worth keeping in mind if you are considering getting on the 'boycott Nestle' bandwagon (and I would definitely encourage you to do so - just Google to find out all about it).

    Can I suggest that anyone that posts my local does/does not give free samples also puts the branch location?

    Surely the fact thats its L'oreal is enough reason to not go in there?!? :confused: Shame I used to love Body Shop stuff :( Dam morals
