Really weird that this question would come up right now because up until yesterday, I would say no. I was at the store with my daughter and there was a person giving away free samples of these frozen dumplings (they were cooked, not cold). My daughter chowed one down and asked for another. Now my daughter is a super picky eater, so I was like “hell yeah, I’m gonna buy a box of these”.
Well we went home to have dumplings for dinner and she didn’t want to eat them.
So now I have dumplings.
Damn she is too picky
Maybe you should’ve waited a week or two to serve those to her again, maybe twice in one day was too much for her pickiness
Whelp we got a whole box of them, so maybe in a day or two we will try again.
Granted this isnt a “Purchase,” but I married my wife. After that first sample, I was hooked and knew I wanted the whole woman forever. 6 years later, I got my best friend and gal of my dreams everyday.
Goals ❤️
I don’t go to Costco but every few years and I went hungry with a friend who has membership and bought too many of the samples I had
Yes, for a set of skincare products. One of the products was a sebum control serum that just did magic, I’ve never seen anything else like it. No more pimples no more blackheads no excess oil and just in three days. Unfortunately it’s discontinued now 😭 but yeah that’s my bought after the sample story
I was just about to ask the name of the product and then got to the end of your comment and became immensely depressed. I’m tired of feeling excessively oily and what you described sounded like a dream product.
It was the jojoba company brand. They still make the face cleanser with grapefruit, which was pretty good for oil control but the serum was the key product.
I’m just as sad 😭
I received a “gift with purchase” lip balm. I usually just toss it after discovering how sticky/goopy/fragranced/tingling it is, but this one was really mild/neutral/pleasant so I got the full one when I finished the sample.
I’m a lip balm fanatic, please share the brand!
I once liked a perfume sample enough to buy a full bottle

In college I was given a 5-pound block of cheese after doing a mall survey on cheese.
Okay but the question was: did you purchase it?
I really need to work on my…reading comprehension sometimes.
Dude same. I words all the time
Or are they still working their way through that 5 pound block of cheese?
Not once. He- actually at one point i remember getting free oreos, i was an oreo fan before that so i guess the answer is yes cus i kept buying them after
Reminds me of a Mitch Hedberg joke: “I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too.”
It wasn’t a free “sample”, but I got someone’s hand-me-down leggings and they were so comfortable that I bought a new pair when I needed a different size.
From travels to lots of hotels I’ve taken their mini bottles of shampoo and shaving cream, now from one hotel in Germany and another in France I exclusively buy those shampoos/shaving cream.
There’s a hotel brand hand lotion that I love that cannot be purchased. Ca va mal 😔
I definitely did at a BBQ place near my old office. If you give me a bite of good BBQ, I’m buying what you’re selling.
I feel like many people could list any number of drugs here…
I have never received a free example tbh
yes I have indeed shopped at Costco lol
