    I got some cool free stuff in the mail years ago but it was very hard to sort through everything back then. Thanks for bringing this up. I once got a music tape for free that we loved so much it got destroyed from wear and tear. I could never get another one because it was a sample of different music. But wow it's nice to get free things in the mail.

      @@UndertheMedian I think I figured out why they showed me the commercial because I clicked on a UA-cam video ad about JLo design a luxury bag with her name on it. It is funny to me because I don't listen to her music but usually enjoy her movies. Now I have luxury bags commercials following me around UA-cam while I watch Frugality and Prepping Videos. The moral of this story is be careful what commercials you watch if you want to save money!

    1850 Coffee is a Folgers product. Lantern Glow Light Roast is my husband's favorite variety. I think Walmart keeps other varieties. I don't know if they are medium or dark roast. We order the light roast through Amazon. Cameron's has some good light roast also in caffeinated coffees. He also likes Good & Gather Signature light blends. I am not sure if he has tried Caribou light blends or not. As for me I can only have decaffeinated coffee. If anybody has any suggestions for any Cuban and Puerto Rican Espressos please reply. All suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I tend to drink Cafe Bustelo Decaf Instant Espresso if I am drinking Espresso right now and Folgers Decaf right now because of a preexisting heart condition and GERD.

    A national popular company sold me some bean dip that had some gross matter in it. I complained to their website & was rewarded when I texted requested pictures to them & product codes with maybe $30.00 worth of free holographic coupons.

      We had a similar experience with a popular bagel brand. One of their bagels had a very odd chunk of something in it (I was worried it would be a piece of a rat or mouse). Called the company, agreed to mail them the piece when I received the shipping label.... and off it went. I received several coupons for free sleeves of bagels. But the best part was that they contacted me when the results were back - assuming they were being honest - it was a hard lump of the actual ingredients. YAY.

    You may not have run across this with free samples, but I have - they ask your age and some products will eliminate you on that alone. I went back in, (I am 66), put in 46 and was accepted. Just a little discrimination there. I have found this to be true with some cosmetics, foods or drinks (such as energy drink type products). I don't want to lie to get a free product, just want your readers aware that they may run across age discrimination.

    • @UndertheMedian
      @UndertheMedian  2 роки тому +1

      Though I sympathize with your frustration, having worked writing radio commercials for years, I'll explain what happens with the "age" question. All companies have demographics that they are trying to sell products to. Those demographics are the result of previous marketing research. So, if their stated age range is 25-49 and you are 66, they probably will eliminate you. It's not that they are being mean. It's that their target audience is younger than you. However, if the product is meant for those nearing retirement, the company will eliminate those who are younger. So, it's not really discrimination so much as it is that the company is marketing their products for a younger age range.

    I was lucky that I worked as a Marketing Assistant for Wyeth-Ayerst Laboratories at the time my twins were born. I got free formula for them both for about a year which saved us a lot as I couldn't really produce enough milk myself for them both. I also got a break from the hospital bill when I had my twins. Because I worked for a pharmaceutical company at the time, I was given a "professional discount" so the hospital waived the amount I owed which was something like $20,000! (BTW, Sample Source does not give out full-sized products and it's only a couple of times a year, but still ok.)
