More samples arrived!

Last week it seemed I was bombarded by samples; every day I received something different. This week, pretty much nothing. I haven't been spending as much time on the computer, so I can't wait to get our new one so I can spend more time hunting down samples again.. anyway, I wanted to report that I haven't received a single perfume sample yet. I'm bummed about that; some of them were supposed to ship within 1 week and it's been about a month. I'm still waiting for my Target Beauty Bag, also. I've seen a lot of other people have received theirs, and I'm still waiting..

Anyway, here's my haul so far! This includes the makeup I got for free from Amazon.

Natural Vitality Energy28

My big haul for last week was Natural Vitality's new product, Energy28. For those not familiar with Natural Vitality, they make a number of dietary supplements, including my favorite, Natural Calm, which is a Magnesium supplement, and I cannot live without it! Anyway, I received Energy28 because on Easter, they held a promotion on Facebook. Anyone who posted on their post received free samples! I received 10 samples altogether, and as you can see from the picture, these aren't little samples. They're a full serving each. I was impressed, because the samples themselves arrived by UPS, I believe, so Natural Vitality paid some money just to get me these samples.

I wasn't too certain whether I would like Energy28. As the name implies, it's an energy supplement made out of 28 all natural ingredients, including roots, berries, and fruits. It contains a few things I don't like: pumpkin, acai, pomegranate, banana, but also many I do love: apple, strawberry, blueberry, cherry, raspberry, broccoli, carrot to name a few. Energy28 can be used in a number of ways: as is, right out of the package, or in water. I drank my first sample right out of the package, and I really didn't mind the flavor. Except I forgot to shake it up first, so it wasn't mixed up enough. Definitely shake this before using! As I was drinking it, it occurred to me that this would be excellent mixed up in some plain yogurt. I haven't tried that yet, but when I do I'll let you know.

As far as energy goes, I really didn't notice any differences in my energy level. I did, however, exercise more than usual so maybe I had more and just really didn't notice it. I still have 9 samples left, so I'll have to try it again, and try taking it a few days in a row to see if that makes a difference.

Walmart Samples

I got a few more of my samples from Walmart as well: Metamucil and Garnier Fructis' new product, Pure Clean Clear 2in1. Garnier's Clear 2in1 is of course a 2in1 shampoo conditioner which is 92% biodegradable, contains no silicone, paraben or dye. The Metamucil sample contains 2 samples, and a  coupon for 2 dollars off. I haven't tried either one of these yet, so we'll see.

Facebook freebies

You can get 2 samples of Miracle Whip, plus a 50 cent coupon by liking them on Facebook, and requesting a sample. Promotion is still going on right now.

I managed to grab a sample of Burt's Bees product, Gud, while it was still available. You can still grab a $1.00 coupon by liking them on Facebook and requesting the coupon. Gud is a natural product line of hair, hand and body products. The sample I received was for Vanilla Flame Body Lotion. I received the coupon and sample.

The last sample I received last week is Eucerin's Skin Calming Itch Relief Treatment.I got 1 sample, and a coupon for $1.00 off any Eucerin product.

I should still be receiving many more samples over the next few weeks, so I'll keep letting you know what I've received, how you can get them, and as I use them what I think :)
