I wonder if I am the only one who can not resist free samples. My daughter is absolutely mortified to go shopping with me , especially at Costco because I will wait in line to try a free sample. (And more embarrassingly, I sometimes even go back for seconds.... ) .

I've seen families do Sunday morning brunch at the supermarket.

You're not the only one. My wife and I do the same, and I do go back for seconds sometimes also.

It's hard to turn down something that's free!

I've been to too many conventions and loaded up with free SWAG to have any interest in this. Free samples = junk to store or toss, free food = stuff made from junk I wouldn't eat normally. I used to get free t-shirts for wearing around on dirty jobs, but even that got old.

Does anyone know a legitimate website where you can get free samples of other products besides food?? I see a lot advertised, but when you go to the site it ends up being like a scam.

Walmart.com - Save money. Live better. go to the top of page far right tab that says "In stores now" click on free samples.
The change the samples week to week and it's fun to get them. I got free Aqua fresh toothpaste and cat food this week in the mail
