Sample Showcase: Register Now for Upcoming Freebies from the US Postal Service
Soooo excited! The US Postal service is at it again, offering up a way for select people (depending on your particular demographics) to score FREE samples! It’s called the Sample Showcase. Just head on over to their site and click on “Join Now” to get started… OR login (if you are already a member).
If this is your first time registering, you will need to fill out your mailing info and take a survey. After doing so, you will receive an email with a link to confirm your membership – make sure to click on it and login. The next FREE sample box (which includes an assortment of FREE product samples) is set to be released in 5 days! …And it’s on a first come first serve basis. I would suggest registering now, so you’re ready for when the offer goes live.
How can I get a box?
All you need to do is sign up and become a member of this Sample Showcase site. When boxes are available, we will contact you (if you allow us to) as well as placing the box offer on the website. When the time comes to order a box, it will always only be available on a first come, first served basis until the volume of Sample Showcase™ boxes are gone. There are no guarantees you will receive any to see if you qualify. If you do in fact qualify, you will receive a box of assorted beauty, health and snack food items from multiple consumer packaged goods companies. The boxes will be branded with the Postal Service logo and include the tagline, “A selection of free product samples.”
And for all you new readers, this is what came in the last Sample Showcase box:
(Thanks, The Frugal Find, I Love Free Things and Dayna!)
I’d never heard of this before. Hope I qualify! LOL. Thanks SO much Collin!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU & THE SITE!!!
thanx Collin. I did received the showcase in the picture…but now I am signed up as a member, so thanx for the heads up gurl!
I registered… sounds fun! Hope I get some boxes sometime!=) Thanks for posting this, Collin!!!
Nifty! 🙂 I just went and signed up…how do you know if you’re getting the box? I already got some neat-o free samples, though, so it’s already a WIN! 😉
Don’t forget to request the other samples through the samples link at the top of the page…quite a few items that I had not seen posted.
Thanks for pointing that out. I hadn’t noticed the extra samples.
I signed up too 🙂 So in 5 days we rush over to the site to try to score a box? I’ve never heard of this before either. Thanks Collin!
Was disappointed that it required a cell phone #, even though it said it was optional.
Didn’t require a cellphone number for me…strange.
it required one if you put your carrier. If you didn’t put a carrier, it let you bypass that.
I didn’t enter a cell phone number. It didn’t tell me it was required.
What do you do if you have changed e-mails since the last time?
go to their site and and click on where it says, contact us and let them know.
I’m glad this is back! I was just wondering the other day if they would do it again. 🙂
Good news, bad news.
Bad news: I won’t be around in 5 days 🙁
Good news: I will be in Maui 🙂
Thanks anyway, Collin!
Lucky you Fran!!!! I have family in Hawaii and Maui. ENJOY your trip!
Thanks Ruby! Do you have any suggestions on what to do or see there? We have a luau set up already, and someone told us about the best cheeseburger place…anything you could add would be great. Hubby want to go on a helicopter ride…yikes!
Drive the Road to Hana!!! Also, there is a sunrise bike ride trip. (I was just there in Dec for my honeymoon and we LOVED it)
Here’s the bike tour link… https://www.bikemaui.com/
Thanks Michelle! I’m sending everything to my husband to print for us. We now have more to do. I’m glad I asked…we were just going to wing it, but I think it’s nice to know a little before you get there.
Congratulations to you and hubby on your marriage…may you have many happy years together!!!!!
Oh my gosh!!!! definetly go to the Road to Hana and the Volcano House. And if you can go para sailing and snorkeling at Molokini, I think thats what it was called. Let me know if you guys go to any of those. We had a blast going and doing all these things. My brother lives in Maui and he set up a boat cruise to Molokini and thats where we went snorkeling. Lots of neat sea turtles. If you can, bring a water camera to take pictures of all the turtle and fish. We didnt have one but the boat cruise we went on you could borrow one. Have fun!!! I am so jealous and wish I could go. HTH!!!!
Fran, Yes it is Molokini we went snorkeling at. It is a partially sunken volcano crater about 2.5 miles off the coast of Maui. It is a underwater sanctuary of marine life. It is the most breath taking snorkel or dive location ever. Water is soooooo CLEAR and tons of beautiful fish. Be careful of jelly fish you dont get stung. Some people are allergic to them. Hope this gives you more to go on!!!
Maui has a Black Sand Beach that is really cool on the South End. Oahu has the Polynesian Culture Center on the North Side, Pearl Harbor, and the Dole Plantation is very interesting. The Big Island has a Winery down South that has some really great Honey Wine and there’s a French Restaurant that’s fantastic, but I can’t remember the name…it’s been a really long time. Kauai is absolutely Gorgeous! Canoe up the river for a picnic. Hope you have a great trip!
take me with you…please? I won’t eat much..you won’t even know I’m there I’ll be so quiet. lol..someday I’ll go…someday…
Thanks ladies, that’s so helpful. We did want to check out the black sand beach. And we probably will do the Road to Hana, but isn’t it an 8 hour drive, one way? But I’m guessing you don’t have to travel the whole road, right?
I heard the food at the luau isn’t that great, but the entertainment is great.
You can come, Mrs. Hall…maybe you can fit next to Collin, in our suitcase 🙂
If you want to see how this trip came about, check out this (I don’t think Collin would mind me posting this link since it’s her site):

Is this the trip you won? Or am I thinking of the wrong person……
You have the right person, Jessica…good memory! My husband printed Collin’s post and all the wonderful comments from my fellow hipsters. I was sick last week, and while resting I decided to read all the comments again…it was so heartwarming. Collin certainly does have some great readers.
I remember I was so happy you won! Have fun on your trip it sounds amazing.
That is so sweet, Jessica…thanks, It sure is a once in a lifetime trip! 🙂
Fran, my husband and I just got back from Maui a week ago. We stayed in the Lahaina/Kaanapali area. It was gorgeous. You should definitely do the road to Hana. Just leave pretty early. I would say it took us every bit of 8 hours. We drove on through once we got to Hana (most people get to Hana and turn around), it was a pretty rugged drive, but worth it. Past Hana, is where you will see the Wailea Falls and the Seven Pools. We also took a helicopter ride, went whale watching, and went snorkeling on the island on Lanai. No matter what you do, it will be great. HAVE FUN!!!!!!
Enjoy your trip! The Road to Hana was fantastic.
Thanks for the info, Annie. I guess we will have to travel the whole Road to Hana just to see the Wailea Falls and the Seven Pools…sounds great!
Thanks Kim, I know it will be great 🙂
so what day and time would I request the box?
I never got my taster’s coffee sample
I did this last time and a box full of great items (shown above) were automatically sent to me to try for free. Very convenient. I had to set up a new account this time. It didn’t recognize my email address when I tried to log in, but I honestly don’t remember if we were asked to set up an account for the last mailing.
I tried to log on too, before I registered
Got this sample last time and still had to sign up all over again as well.
Same here…even though I got an email from them it doesn’t recognize that email addy.
Same here. Pretty sure I got the box last time, but neither of my email accounts showed up so we must not have had to provide an email.
here’s to hoping! lol – I live in Idaho, we rarely are in the “regions” these types of things go out to. But, doesn’t hurt to try! — thanks Tammy for the samples link tip, I will try that
Thanks, Collin. My state wasn’t participating last time.
Are we supposed to get the confirmation email right away??
I got mine right away.
I haven’t gotten mine either! I hope it comes soon
I haven’t gotten an email confirmation either. Hopefully it will come soon. It’s been over 5 minutes and I am getting nervous …
Since it’s been over 6 hours and i still have not received a confirmation email (even though I had them re-send it Several times), I emailed them. Hopefully I can still sign up.
I got the last box!!! Here’s hoping I can get this one too!!
Thanks Colin! I’m really excited about this!!
I’ll be out of town in 5 days so hopefully it will be posted during a time when I can get online. On a side not, I received my burts bees acne solutions set today as well as some beauty samples from Target. The target samples came in a cute little cosmetics bag. Today was a very good mail day!
i’m still waiting for my Target bag. i’ve had a bad month mailbox wise. it’s starting to get cobwebs lol. funny thing is I’m requesting stuff and landing free items all the time! wonder what gives….
I totally understand you. I have not got my target bag yet either, i’ve not gotten any mail (other then bills) in the past couple weeks.
Hopefully you will get your Target bag soon. I got mine yesterday. Really a cute little bag with some nice samples.
When you sign up you can also get samples by the link at the top of the page, some of these will also give you coupons 😀
I register for this, ( i’ve never heard of it ) it says it will email to confirm and it’s been about 15 mins and I haven’t received anything yet.
How long does the email take?
30 seconds
just wondering the same thing, it has been almost 20 minutes here and still haven’t seen an email to confirm… I even checked my spam folder, nothing. Hope it comes soon and the deal isn’t dead already!
Make that another one of us! I have waited a half hour, then went back and asked them to resend, and it still hasn’t come……
I signed up and it told me I would receive an email confirmation and i never did so i clicked the button that said to resend confirmation and i did that like 3 times and still nothing. I tried to log into the site and it told me this account not confirmed yet. I emailed their customer service and have not heard back yet.
So THIS is where all the free samples I request that never make it to me go!!!! I knew those pesky mail men were baggin em!!! lol. I never heard of this program before, but I already love it!!! Thanks!!
ha!
You made me laugh! I loved the comment!
this sounds awesome 😀 i hope we all get one:) by the way i love your site collin!
I was just thinking about this program the other day. I got the last box and was wondering when the next one would be offered. Yeah!
So I got my confirmation email, do I need to do anything else to get the box of goodies? Anyone know???
Never got a confirmation. signed up under 2 emails, the first email didn’t work so I tried a new one. This is frustrating. I got the last showcase sample box and I loved it. I want the next one too.
I never received a confirmation email either – I tried it twice. I’m really bummed!
Me either! I tried twice last night and once today. Hmmmm?
After the first page survey the screen went blank so I am not sure if I was signed up. Maybe I will check my email in a little while.
I never got an email the first time I signed up… go back and try to log in and it will tell you that your membership has not been confirmed and below it will have a button about how to confirm etc. Then ask them to send you a new confirmation email… got mine immediately.
🙂
Just got my sample showcase today! Secret Clinical sample, 2 coffeemate french vanilla creamer, wisk detergent, nonni’s biscotti, Gum softpicks and a coupon for them and also a Starbucks coupon! WOOHOO!
I didnt qualify today…what a bummer!! Better luck next time I guess
