How do you get bottled perfume smaples?

You know at department stores how they sometimes give you samples of perfume that are like .5 ounces? How do I get those? Are they free or what?How do you get bottled perfume smaples?
Yes, you can get them for free, by simply asking for a sample, but you have to be specific as to which one (s) you want.





Although, a lot the fragrance workers, will spray what your frangrance-request on a card for you to take with you, rather than give an actual vile-sample, (some perfume manufactuers don't give out vile- samples any longer.)








If you are collecting several vile-samples, do it all at once. Tell them all the ones you would like to try. And that you need to wear the fragrance one day each to decide which one you want to purchase later.





The fragrance girls are quick to call people who return more than once asking for viles ';sample hounds';. I know it's an awful thing to say, but it's a common phrase in the make up counters. Kind of humorous.





They are trained to tell repeat vile-samplers ';sorry, we don't have any more samples';, and to push a bottle sale.





They suspect that if they keep giving out vile samples that people will just keep coming back for them and never purchase the actual bottle (which they make their commission off of.) ;)








Oh! While I'm on a sample info. tangent, you should also know about: freesamples.com


Also walmart.com has a 'sample' section online, which you can request samples of various products (usually soaps, lotions, and detergents) that will be sent to you via postal mail.





This concludes the infomercial. lol
