Spellkast Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 You know, you would think if these people have the time to write these stupid emails requesting samples, that they would at least go through the efforts of TRYING to make it seem professional!!! I mean, all caps, come on!!! I wouldn't want to give that person anything even if they were legit for fear that they're so stupid they'd eat it! And if they're mass mailing it-spell check is your friend- they should use it!!!!! Ugghhhh...so many people trying to take advantage of hard working people...just disgusts me!

Shani Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I recieved the one SaraS posted; around three or four weeks ago. I replied explaining to him/her we only acknowledge free samples with a purchase...have not heard from him/her since. Go figure. Why are people always creepin'?:tiptoe: Shani:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Tis the time of year I guess. People are to cheap to buy and figure they can gather enough freebies to give as gifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Bobbie is famous, she's been at it for years. I get one from her every year around the holidays, when she's trying to stock up for presents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaraScribbles Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 I e-mailed her just as Shani did, I know she read it (requested a read receipt) and haven't heard back. It just astounds me that people are this cheap, (and my parents thought I was conniving in my teen years ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soygirl Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 LOL. I got the one from Bobbie before too. I have a scripted reply to any email requesting samples: While we do occasionally have promotional sample give-aways, it is cost-prohibitive to ship free samples to everyone who makes a request. We recommend that you subscribe to our e-mail Newsletter. One lucky member will win a free 6 oz. soy tin candle every month. The thing I don't understand, is why people subscribe to my e-mail Newsletter with a bogus e-mail. How are they going to win a free candle, if I can't contact them that they've won?
