Confession time...I don't like
paying full fright for any thing.
If I can get a few things free or discount. Doesn't matter the size
or the value.
I have contact a
few companies by e mail and ask for there product for free or
discount coupon. I've ask for many items. Such as dish soap, car oil,
tooth paste, sardines, flour, eggs, tooth brushes, yogurt, and etc.
If you discover a new product and you might be interesting in trying
it, Contact them an ask for an sample. Nothing wrong in asking for
more then one. Every one in your family can sample a new treat. We
all have friends and we can let our friends try the new sample.
The reason there
giving you a something free is hoping for a good word on there
product. Word mouth can move an items.
Take small bit of
your time and give an review of there product or service. Be honest
in your review. It doesn't help the business if your not truthful
There no excuse being uncivilized.
Usual
coupons will be e-mail or sent good ole snail mail.
Editor
note...I'm not promoting any business , organization. Or product
here.
With
all the social media out there. One can like a business and leave
pleasant feed back or a suggestion. Not long a go I was in Spokane
Winco. I went on Winco facebook page and liked and posted something
like this...”Your store is awesome. A drive for us is over an hour
to your closes store. Could you please consider putting one in
Sandpoint”
Confession
time..just recently post on facebook and twitter, trying to get a
WinCo in Sandpoint
Those
who are members of organization may also get a discount. Such as
Triple A, AARP, Military, Student, Unions, Firefighters, Police and
etc.
When
frequent a business ask if they give a discount to a certain
business. If they say no. Talk to the management and suggest they
give a discount to your organization you are a member to.
Also
head over an use social media....post something like this on the
page...”There a lot of people who are Triple A , could you please
consider giving triple A members a discount “
Hash-tags
are anther tool to get a discount. There couple of way of doing
this...Go to a business and ask them to put in a product...”have
you every consider offering a discount on coffee (hash-tag)
Go
to your favor business and organization...”It would be helpful if
you could give a discount to AARP (hashtag) members when shopping at
Safeway (hashtag)
Squeak
wheel get oil. But honey is best way of getting what you want or
need. Manners and being civilize will get you a lot father in life.
Coffee

Hash tags could be also used on your own person pages on social media.
ReplyDeleteI never order anything that has to be shipped to me unless I save a bunch of money on it, like a new starter for my outboard motor, and they paid the shipping.
ReplyDeleteBTW, if a idle control motor is bad it isn't likely to show up on a code scan, you just have to figure it out.
if it's free i'll take it, that's always been my motto.
ReplyDeleteNever had the nerve to ask for a Mercedes
ReplyDeleteI used to get free products for review. Sometimes the products are not as good as they claim and they get defensive when I feedback. I seldom accept doing reviews now.
ReplyDeleteELC..Some people can't handle the truth.
