Would you buy something you don't need to get the freebie

View latest: 24h 48h 72h

When I see a bonus offered with a product for sale I:

buy every time, regardless of my connection with the product, b/c the bonus is free and I love free stuff

[ 0 ]

buy, but only if the product is something I already use

65%

[ 13 ]

don't buy ever

[ 0 ]

buy occasionally, even if I don't use the product, but only if the freebie is something I really want

My grandmother would do this sometimes, or she would wait for a freebee to come. Then she would give it away! It's definitely a motivation! Some freebees are really worth it!

I go crazy when they offer the bonus gifts, but I'll only buy when it's from a company that I use stuff from.

Maya, sounds like you have something from every company anyway!

As for me, I used to do it all the time, I stopped.

I haven't needed anything in a long time, and I do try to make sure that I need the product and like what's in the freebie.

I do have, but not always products that are expensive enough to buy in order to receive the gift.

I also used to do it. Then I had dozens of these cute littl ebags with cute little samples that sat there, and sat there, and sat there. No more.

Bloomingdale's had a Lancome event today, where they did a makeover on you, and tried differnet products and colors. I purchased a new primer and sheer, everyday powder makeup, and received a bonus gift with more eyeshadow, blush, mascara and lipstick. It's my lucky day. Smile
