Sample Showcase: FREE Sample Box Offer (Now Live!)
Remember my March 29th post on Sample Showcase? Well, the FREE sample box offer is going live at 12:15 pm EST today, 4/4! Soooo excited! 😀 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 FREE sample box (which includes an assortment of FREE product samples) is available on a first come first serve basis. Registering now (if you haven’t done so already), so you’re ready when the offer goes live… which is soon!
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 for the reminder, Coupons on Caffeine & The Frugal Find!)
Crud thought I was logged in but now it wants my username and password….what were they again? lol.
Doh…made it to the qualifying quiz page and wouldn’t submit my info…
Way to go to those that managed to get one!
I just keep hitting backspace and refresh. it finally went through but I don’t qualify. Oh well.
its not even going to the page for me
All that for I don’t qualify!? lol
site crashed….crashed ! oh well!
I finally got through…just keep refreshing your page. It took me this whole time to finally get it.
Got one! 12:28 PM EST…..Thanks!!!
I was sitting here counting down with the counter. Once it was time, I clicked the button and the site crashed! What a bummer!
All of that and I don’t qualify!?
That is really lame. 🙁
Site crashed for me too… bummer!
I assume they are gone because I don’t see the “See if I qualify” button anymore.
its there for me, but everytime I click, I get Oops! Google Chrome could not connect.
waiting for site not too crash on me anymore
Got one at 12:30. It said “thank you for your order, you’re box will be on it’s way shortly”
Lame! Was signed in and clicked See if I Qualify and it said bad credentials??? I want my information back!! LOL.
Mine said BAD CREDENTIALS too. That’s kind of rude. How about, “sorry but you don’t qualify” that would be a little bit nicer.
Hmmm…I’ve made it all the way to the submit page (w/ my mailing address, etc. that says my box should come in April). I’ve pressed submit, but now just have the little waiting hourglass. Anyone else have this happen? I reloaded the page once and it is still doing the same thing…Just hoping it will eventually go through!
Didn’t qualify, oh well I got a lot of free things in the mail today thanks to Collin 🙂 To those who did qualify what were your answers to the three questions?
I chose female, child under 3 and $50-75,000.
20 minutes for them to finally say
At this time, you do not qualify for this particular Box.
Thank you for your interest in StartSampling’s Sample Showcase™
I know same thing happened to me.
Wow, I finally got one, too (11:38 CST). Thanks Collin!
It was a lot easier to get this box the last time around. Sigh.
Yeah, I agree. I think it is because less people knew about it. I’m still trying to get through…
Thanks! I finally got this message after 27 mins, “Thank you for your order, your box will be on it’s way shortly.”
Well that was a complete waste of time…
I’ve gotten to the point where I entered my address. Then I had a pre-use survey, which is what it is stuck on now. Do you disqualify after the pre-use survey? or before the address?
Angela, for me everything got hung up but when I finally was able to see the pages correctly, it looks as if the survey is AFTER you qualify. I had almost reached the page to submit my address when it crashed. I reloaded the page many times and finally got the “your box is on its way shortly” bit, and then the survey.
Thanks. When I logged back into my account is says thank you for your recent order where the showcase button was. I guess that means I qualified? I’m still not sure if it is coming as the pages are still stuck.
Yes, it sounds like you got it! 🙂
I haven’t been able to complete the survey, but since I already got the message that my order is on its way, I know it isn’t necessary in order to get the sample box.
still waiting….
It says I qualify, but when I verify my address to send me the samples, it says an error has occured.
keep trying. i had the same problem. it will go through eventually.
Page won’t even load. Frustrating!
I must not have the magic touch…
I can’t get past clicking “See if you qualify” without getting an error. Ouch.
same here
same here .you would think they would have more servers…
I still can’t get it to work
Now it’s taking me to the Costco website! What gives?
could not get the page to load. Oh well.
i cant get it to work either
I got Thank you for your order, your box will be on it’s way shortly.
Please complete this Survey. Did any of you get through to this next survey? If so, what was it cause I can’t get past this page, I keep getting an error.
Questions on if you have tried certain products… Secret Clinical Strength, Coffee Mate non dairy creamer, and a few other items.
I got mine. Keep trying everyone. Refresh, refresh, refresh.
it is taking me to costco too… :/
Anyone notice that Collin is a lot like Oprah and every time she mentions anything it just flies off the shelf (or crashes a site). LOL, I love this site and hate that everyone else does too. Hehe.
LOL SO true!!!
keep in mind though it’s just not her – a lot of other savings sites report on these too, so you have hundreds and thousands of people all trying to access them at the same time.
Giving up. I never even got the page to load.
Never mind. I just got one 12.25 CT
Wow, it took sooo long to get this. I used both IE & FF, and only FF could load. Thanks Collin! 🙂
Got mine! It took F-O-R-E-V-E-R though…started at 12:15 and it just went through. Had to refresh a million times! Keep trying…don’t give up 🙂
Can someone please tell me where to go or what to click once I am logged in???????
Can someone please tell me where to go or what to click once I am logged in???????
I didn’t qualify for this one 🙁
When I click on “see if you qualify”, it just keeps bringing me back to this page! Any suggestions???
So, switched over to Firefox as mentioned above and was able to get through immediately, only to find out I am not qualified. I spent an hour trying to get this. 🙁
I’ve been using Firefox and can’t get through.
I have been using 2 computers, one with IE and the other FireFox and sitll haven’t had any luck. I can’t get past the page asking me to confirm my login! Grrrrr….
all that time and I did not qualify! I think I might cry lol
This hardly seems worth it!
I think after over an hour I finally got one. This is what mine said.
Thank you for your interest in StartSampling’s Sample Showcase™.
We know that most people like trying new products, so we’ve assembled a single package with great product samples that we will be delivering right to your home. The products included are brought to you by great companies and brands that want you to try their products.
Once you do get the box, please come back and visit us to let us know what you think of this Sample Showcase – we look forward to hearing from you!
Now that your Sample Showcase box has been ordered, we invite you to explore our site, make some comments and visit our Sample Center. We thank you again for your order and hope to see you back soon.
anyone that qualified willing to share your answers to the first survey, how many kids and income?
50-75k, children above 18 and between 12 and 15 (not sure what the exact range was for the second kid, but whichever 13 years old falls under I checked)
Thank you all for responding! I was able to qualify!
Isn’t that dishonest to put in info that isn’t yours just to qualify? They are targeting these packages for specific groups. You really should leave them for the people who do qualify – you wouldn’t want others to take away from something you qualify for when they don’t and what if it ends up being all stuff geared towards kids that you don’t need?
agreed!
I have kids 0-3 and we make about 50-75,000
Uhhhh……it said thank you for your intrest but did not say if it was a go or ‘to the file.’ lol Maybe!?!?!?!?
I answered the questions and entered my info for them to ship it to me. Now I am getting the hourglass. I guess I’ll just wait….
That happened to me and I could not get the next page to load after I hit the submit button. So I started over and when I went back to the first page, instead of saying “see if you qualify” it said “thank you for your order”. So I guess my address went through after all and it looks like I will be getting the box. Time will tell. Good Luck
i got into the survey and i got stuck in the hour glass…
I keep getting ‘bad credentials’ message. Did we have to create a special member id or is it just my first name? I can’t remember!!
