My friend said to call juice companies and pretend to be a shop worker to get free samples?

People do this everyday with all kinds of things. Take cosmetics for example, you can email a company and request a sample of the product before you invest your money in it. It's actually a very smart way to save money. I wouldn't recommend that you pretend to be a vape company though, they can request information from you for proof. Just email and say you're interested in their products and would like to sample some before you purchase.
You mean you condone (stealing) begging for freebies?

You can make a quart of juice for like twenty bucks. Why would you beg or scam for freebies. How low budget and pathetic do you want to be?

I want to print this out, make hardcopies, and pass it out like biblical literature, maybe even treat it like a high school yearbook and have everyone who commented sign it. I thought I saw everything there is to be seen at my B&M, but then again, the online life surprises, doesn't shock me.

That has nothing to do with the point I was making, did YOU read my comment?
I must have missed your point then. But no, I'm not condoning "stealing" from companies. I was just saying, IF you're gonna go that route, don't lie about your identity.

Swearing is damn near mandatory here.
Cussing is welcomed.
And cursing is always an option.

Liar...Liar.


Those are your own words.
I wasn't suggesting for him to ask for handouts! He wanted to to begin with! Just saying, if you're gonna do that, then don't be a bitch and lie about your identity. Lying just makes you look worse.

Ok I can kind of see Kimmy's point, there is no harm in asking for a sample (like 1ml), when you ask correctly. IF, big IF, the company wants to send you one its on them... She was just saying to not lie about who you are are which is a shitty way of doing things...

You never know, a company, ANY company may give out samples and it may not be widely known that they do. Maybe even to cover their ass because of the FDA? Who knows, They could say yes, but the worse that could happen, if you do it honestly, is they say no. I mean I wouldn't do it but someone may want to try and as long as they do it honestly its on them and the company. And its noone else's business (as long as they don't go blabbing to everyone else :rolleyes: cuz they'd want it too and the company would lose business that way which is probably why they don't hand out free samples o_O)

ANYWHOO... I'm just saying I can see both sides on this lil' argument and I'm walking away before someone calls me a thief, which i clearly said i would NOT do this, as I don't ask for handouts AT ALL... (too much pride! I feel better if I pay for an item ;)) :zombie::zombie::zombie:

THANK YOU. Not sure why everyone was interpreting what I said into me condoning stealing and begging...?

All this thread is doing is making me miss the teeny little 3ml sample bottles that used to be everywhere and thrown in with damned near every order.

No so much the samples themselves, just the adorable little bottles. Wonder if I still have some kicking around somewhere.

TL;DR - useless ramble was useless, it's good you didn't read it

The FDA but the kibosh on free samples.
What's next no more free crackers with my soup?

I never used zamplebox but it's all over reviews I've watched, definitely wasn't readily available in the UK! & I've never had little sample bottles lol.
My shop local let's me try juice before I buy so I ain't arsed in the slightest.
I have started doing diy but if a flavour is really good I'll buy it. Recently I tried a honey buns an it was lovely but 3 bottles for £12.00 what a rip.

Asking for a sample implies that you intend to purchase said product if the sample meets with your approval. If you have no intentions of ever buying the product and are asking for a sample merely to get something for nothing then you're still a liar and a cheat. You may as well pretend to be a shop worker as the OP suggested. In either case you're a pathetic loser. Go to the pharmacy, buy some VG and pour that into your tank. You're too stupid to realize there's no nic in there and as for flavour, you have no taste anyway.

Lying is wrong. Pretending to be a shop worker when you're not falls into that category, especially if you're doing it to get free stuff.

If you really want juice and you're broke, there's a sub-forum here called Pay It Forward. As far as I know, the FDA has shot down the idea of juice companies sending out free samples for the public. I could be wrong though.

Your friend sounds like an immature niggard.
 
nice thread. Dude first i have had major spinal surjery and have faught my entire life against pain and prejurdice cause of my scoliosus . And dont aprrecieate you useing scoliosus as an excuse. Second as a member of vapeing community we have spent most of our lives fighting adiction and being treated as low lives for smokeing, vapeing has freed us, dont make vaporists as hated as smokers, if you want free samples go to a trade show, and get involved in the community and help keep our freedom free.
