I know that some of you are doing the same thing as bradsgirl and leigh. The first time I read about the $39 dollar experiment I was like no way! Then I thought to myself "think of all the money you will be saving" and I started going around my apt looking for products I use everyday. I started emailing companies and I have received many emails telling me that they do not do any kind of promotions or giveaways to anyone. I thanked them for their time and moved to the next company. The following are the companies to send coupons or something free :)

Mama Rosa's Pizza :)
Louisiana Hot Sauce :)
Butt Paste :)
Germ X :)
McCormick :)
SoBe :)
Claire's accesories :)
ST. Ives :)
Hot Pockets :)
Aunt Jemima :)
Beechnut :)
Eden Foods :)
Gerber :)
Aveeno :)
Sara Lee :)
J&J :)
Chap Stick :)
JANE Cosmetics :)
Sunny Delight :)
Pepperidge Farm :)
Bigelow :)
Gillette :)
White Barn Candles :)
Ensure :)

I will be adding new companies in a different reply. I'm still waiting to hear from a lot of them :x:

Thanks for the info..McCormicks actually has sample taste testing (i fortunately live right up the road from their facilities)..i went their to be a taste tester for menu items that were going to be added to Chili's Restaurants (McCormicks does their flavorings)...they paid me $75.00 for 2 hours of eating and talking!! :D

P&G is also located in the same area...I was suppose to go there for a 45 min interview for foundation make-up but i had to cancel..they were going to pay $50.00!!....This is a great thing to do if you have the time. I did this more when i wasn't working to supplement my husb income.

sometimes you can find this kind of thing if you look up "research companies" on google...if anyone is interested.

Hey I'm new to this site, but I read your post and wanted to give you another one. I emailed Sassy (awesome infant company) and they sent me two MAM coupons and two Sassy toy coupons that never expire!! They also sent me two free pacifiers.

Hi! I'm new to this forum and ran across your Experiment idea and think its awesome! I love Freebies!! Just a Q though, when you email, what do you say? Do you give out your full name and mailing address or do they respond in an email asking for that information?? This sounds like super fun!

I just tell them my personal experience with a product of theirs and how rad they are! As for my info they usually write back and ask for it.
