Samples are where it's at, bro Happy2 I got on the sample program a while ago when my limited bathroom space quickly got overcrowded (I refuse to store soap anywhere else, which helps me control my acquisition disorder). These days, most of my soaps are samples and regularly cull full pucks that are not definite keepers. With samples, I can 3017 soaps and try new ones way more quickly. I think the sampler pass around is a killer idea.

there was a company out there at one point in time maybe 2 years ago or so that only sold samples of products. I can't recall the name of the company at the moment though. Sad

Gary's Sample Shop. http://sampleshop.blogspot.ca/?m=1

He was a vendor on B&B, not sure if he's still around or not.

I don't think that was the one. I think there was someone who used to be on TSN that sold samples.

Ah, Gary's is the only one I have ever seen as a sample based business.

From what I know, he was or is a reputable seller.

I hate that phrase. Since the shaving industry loves the YMMV acronym, ripped directly from the EPA, I think the phrase should also be auto related in the realm of "Use them like you stole 'em"! (AKA Drive it like you stole it).

What in heaven's name is 3017. For that matter, I don't know what 86 means, though that seems to have died.
