The limitations varied. Â With beauty products, I had $10 towards any sort of beauty products. Â With pet food, I had $15 towards anything from the companies in the box.
But I really found the sample boxes worth it.
Make your own sample box
Now, Amazon is letting you build your own sample box. Â You pay for each sample individually, but then you get 100% credit towards products in the future.
They end up being more expensive per sample, but you get to choose exactly what you want. Â In addition, you’ll get the cost back in credit if you end up purchasing full-size products.
The products available include skincare, beauty, nutrition, supplements and snacks.
When redeeming your credit
Some people have reported having trouble redeeming the credit. Â When I first purchased items, I screenshotted what it said I can redeem the credit for–just in case. Â The text on the pages never changed, so I never actually needed that as proof.
Sometimes, I couldn’t get the credit to apply to some items in my order that were clearly included in the rules for the credit. Â Each time, I logged onto chat and they fixed it for me. Â In a couple of cases, they applied a separate credit as an apology for the trouble (and I ended up having the original credit applied to a future order!)
YMMV, but I’ve had all my problems resolved reasonably well by the online chat.
Please note, if you buy anything through my Amazon links, I may receive referral credit. Â As always, I appreciate your support!
