Do you ever wish you could just go somewhere, eat, leave, and not have to pay? Well, when you know what stores offer free samples on their products, it’s not so hard.
Here’s a simple rundown of grocery stores that let customers try before they buy.
Costco, of course, is famous for their frequent sample tables–sometimes boasting as many at one per aisle. A quick stop at this warehouse grocer will get you trying things you never would have thought to try before.
Trader Joe’s is one of my favorites. All the time, new sweets or savories are popping up in little paper doilies, and a simple sweep through Trader Joe’s activates my sweet tooth for no charge.
Market of Choice often caters to new retailers looking to spread the word about their products. This grocery store is a great place to sample new drinks and foods.
The Internet offers a whole variety of new options for food samples. Check this page of the Walmart website to keep track of when they offer coupons to redeem for free food and products. Target does the same thing, though in both cases, offers run out fast. The frugal eater must be diligent!
