Thrilled with sample formula

by Penny on May 14, 2010



Some weeks ago we responded to some advertisements from the formula brand that we buy for Ryan just for fun. We got calls from the company and they asked some questions and proceeded to register me as a member of their club. I’ve no idea what the benefits are, really. Haven’t even logged in to check.

But what thrilled me was the free sample of formula that they sent me. It’s not a lot, just 4 small packets of milk powder that they sent by post. It’s not going to last even for a day, so I guess it was just some cheap thrill for me. Haha.

However, now that I’ve received the formula, I also wonder if the condition of the formula should be ok for consumption, simply because it was mailed in the post. It would’ve been under hot sun, etc, wonder if the milk powder is still good?

Anyhow, since it’s quite fun and provided me some thrills in getting freebies, I guess I won’t mind playing along the next time I see relevant ads like that. Who knows what else you can get in the post, diapers, prenatal vitamins, toys??

What have you received for free in the post that thrilled you?

I’ve got the milk powder too sometime back. Hayley consumed it all and she was ok so I guess they should be safe :-) . I even got free diapers from a few different brands. Quite fun to get these freebies.
