Thanks so much for this thread. I emailed Burns and Supreme on Saturday, got a thank you email from both yesterday and today received 3 350g bags of Science Selective (one each for piggys, rabbits and chinchillas); Burns sent samples of plantain, herbal blend, dandelion and coltsfoot along with 2 flavous of cat food. It's like Christmas come early.
 
I sent a few emails out at the weekend (it's now wednesday) and today I received things from 3 of the places I had emailed :)
I got 4 money off vouchers from Wagg
2 bags of guinea pig food and 1 bag of rabbit food from Supreme
2 bags of pellets for guinea pigs and 2 bags for rabbits from Burgess.
I was a little surprised to get guinea pig food as I only said in my emails that I would be getting piggies in the new year,didn't think Id get food for them in advance!
Ive sent thank you emails to those I have received from.

I also emailed Burns and they emailed me saying some samples are on their way.
I also emailed an organic cat food place and they are sending me some cat food.
 
thank you everyone for making this such a good thread! i'm glad i initiated it! as soon as everything here settles down a bit, i'll start on the bargain (free sample) hunt again, and post all the results here!

Happy Frugal New Year! x>>x>>x>>x>>x>>x>>x>>x>>
 
I emailed Burgess, Wagg, Selective, Burns, Readigrass so far had an email back from everyone except readigrass.

All are posting Samples :)! Happy days!
 
This is a really stupid question but I'm going to ask it anyway! ")

What do you guys put in your emails to get samples? Do you ask outright for samples? Should I tell them I'm looking to swap to their brand? I just feel kinda cheeky :red

i was just wondering this as well ?
 
When I sent all my emails out I just said that I was thinking of changing my rabbits/gerbils/cats diet and could I please have some samples of 'Insert pet food name here' as I didn't want to commit to buying any big bags of stuff just incase my pets didn't like the food!

Thats all I put. Now I have stacks of rabbit and gerbil food and guinea pig food (I dont have any piggys!) And a little cat food too :)

Got some samples....

Wagg sent me a 50p voucher, :( Anyone want it I'll post it :)!

Burns 5 packets of different herbs..:)

Excel sent me treat rolls dandelion ones and 2 packs of excel nuggets blackcurrant and oreono.

Selctive have emailed to say samples are on way, not received as of yet :)
 
I asked Wagg, Burn and Gery Guinea Pig food. I couldn't find any other direct sites from that pet food uk site and the second link doesn't work anymore.

Mine have loved them too! They were happily munching them earlier :))

I have to say the customer service from both Burns and Supreme has been spot on! ;)
 
I Emailed Readigrass... Ages ago about a month ago! To my surprise I got an email today and they are sending me some!

I'm getting jealous now... I shall rub in the fact mine was not a generic email someone took the time to write to me, so obviously it took them about 2 weeks to think about the reply :))....

I'm such a kid at times, I wonder what the sample is like, I got the email the other day so sample may come tomorrow it better not be a tiny bag :)).

If that's what makes you happy then keep telling yourself that :(|)!

I know what you mean though, nothing worse than a tiny sample.
