How to Register for Free Samples by Mail

Check the packaging of the items you want to sample and write down the manufacturer's address. The address is usually found near the bottom of the package.

Write a letter to the manufacturer. Start the letter with a common salutation such as "Dear Sir or Madam" or "Dear Customer Service Personnel."

Express interest in the company's products and your desire to receive free product samples. Name the products you are most interested in trying.

Provide personal details about yourself if you want the company to send specific types of products. You could receive samples from the company's pet food department if you have pets, or gender-specific styling products if you include your gender and age.

Thank the staff member for the assistance and end the letter with a closing greeting. Provide your name and address beneath the closing greeting so the representative knows where to send the items. Mail the letter.

Wait for a response. If the manufacturer responds, you will likely receive coupons that you can use to obtain the product free from a retail store, or the actual product in small sample packs. In some cases, you may receive coupons to purchase the product at a discount.
