I know there’s always a ton of questions when it comes to Canadian freebies and samples, so I’m going to do my best to explain how to get everyone started. First thing to always keep in mind, is these are freebie offers from other companies not myself. I do offer monthly giveaways though through my freebie Facebook group so make sure you join!
If you don’t get selected for a campaign through a company, it’s ok. It was free anyways. Let’s not ruin a good thing for everyone by creating anger in places that really shouldn’t have any. Be happy for others, and just keep trying. These companies pay a fortune to give out free stuff. So let’s be grateful and thankful we even have an opportunity With that said, let’s get started.
My Canadian Freebie Facebook group posts about freebies from the following reputable companies as well as other “pop up” opportunities throughout the year.
Freebie Companies to Sign Up For:
Topbox Missions
Topbox Circle is sample program through Topbox. You sign up for an account, and keep watching for small surveys to be released. Fill out the surveys and they send you freebies that only you qualify for. Filling out a survey does not guarantee a sample. You have to be consistent and keep trying Sign up here: https://beta.topboxcircle.com
Sampler
Sampler is an excellent freebie platform. Each month they host what they call Sample Parties. During these monthly selected timeframes, Sampler will release eligibility questions, and then accounts are matched for products based on their profiles / responses. Again, just to remind you, you won’t get selected each time, but usually every other month I do get an offer from them with great products! I’ve gotten everything like food, hair care, beauty and home products. I highly recommend this one. With Sampler, there many links to sign up as several different companies use them but the link to the Sampler party details is here: https://sampler.io/how-sampler-party-works
Sample Source
Sample Source is a quarterly sample program. It’s important to make sure your profile is always up to date, questions are answered and you’re watching social media for next release dates. Once you do get your samples ( which is a box with 5-15 samples) a survey will be sent to your email to review the products ( make sure to do this for future consideration) These packages go fast, so keep watching for these. Sign up here and get your profile up to date before the next sample release: https://www.samplesource.com
Bevtri
Bevtri is an alcohol sampling program. You can have the chance to receive samples of spritzers, beer, wine, and coolers. I’ve received a few additional items like hats, chips and more! Really awesome company to try out. Sign up here: https://share.bevtri.com/C2F0l0
Freebie For Product Reviews:
Chickadvisor
Chickadvisor periodically releases product review opportunities to apply for. They’ve had great programs from Garnier, Neutrogena and more. They are typically full size products opportunities and offer all types of products ranging from foods, desserts and beauty products. With chickadvisor, it’s typically a request of theirs to post a pic / review on your Instagram account ( needs to be public ) If you’d like to be apart of the community, be my friend, you can join here: https://www.chickadvisor.com/productreviewclub/
Influenster
Influenster is another program that is similar to ChickAdvisor however, with this program you get VoxBoxes to review. In order to qualify for voxboxes, you need to complete your snaps and post some reviews from time to time. This one is harder to get product reviews from, but when you do, they are amazing full size products. I’ve received food as well beauty products to review in the one. I use the app and keep notifications on just to keep my account up to date as much as possible. With this program, you typically have to share to your social sites. Sign up here and make sure to add me as a friend!: http://www.influenster.com/r/3702578
Hometester Club
Hometester Club is amazing! This is similar to the other review programs. You check your accounts occasionally to see if there are opportunities available to apply for. They offer full size products for home, health, food and beauty. I received an electric toothbrush last year for my daughter to review You can sign up for an account here: https://www.hometesterclub.com/ca/en/
Social Nature
Social Nature is a wonderful product review platform that specializes in natural type products. I’ve gotten natural face scrubs, natural protein shakes, natural oatmeal and much more. They offer full size products in return for a simple review. For this one, they post trial offers to their website. You apply for the ones you’d like to be considered for. If they accept they will send you an email. Sign up here: https://www.socialnature.com/?user_referrer=183747
Shopper’s Army
Shoppers Army is a platform that is used for several awesome things. First, periodically they offer product review opportunities. I’ve been selected for an Olay mission ! It was a full size product. They also periodically offer rebate missions. They have a cash back program setup as well. I’ve been using Shoppers Army for several years and have really enjoyed their campaigns. They are quite simple and easy to follow. In order to apply, select the missions tab once signed in. Sign up here: https://www.shopperarmy.com/?ref=84EECA8011161334

PC points are free to sign up for. You can collect points at places like Shoppers, Fortinos, No Frills and Royal Canadian Superstore.

Field Agent
I’ve been able to make extra cash and trying new products with this new app called the Field Agent App. It’s really easy to complete missions and earn cash for yourself. Missions include taking a picture of a product display or menu while you’re in store, or even stay at home options. Lots of COSTCO missions, like a current scavenger hunt that can earn you up to $50. In the end you earn good amounts of CASH while you’re shopping! Sign up here – https://fieldagent.page.link/ndk8sXfzWTkdLHf1A
Coupons and Money Savers:
Flash Food App
If you’re a home cook, and you don’t have this app for your grocery shopping you’re missing out! The point of this particular app, is stores like the Wholesale Club, Real Canadian Superstore, and even No Frills put their products that are to expire soon on this app for a discount price. For example, BOXES of produce for $5. Breads and buns for $1. Meats and Deli meats for super cheap. Each day they update the selections too, so check back often Why is this app so good right now? We are all trying to save a few dollars as much as possible with COVID around. A lot of us freeze foods for future use, make a ton of smoothies or are missing something for a recipe, and can save quite a bit of money this way.
It’s super easy to do, once you download the app, choose which store you’d like to review. Then surf around, pick some products and confirm your order. Head to the store once it’s ready and make sure to head to customer service ( of the store you choose ) with your app / order to pick up. Your order is stored in a giant fridge / freezer at front of store for you, you don’t not have to search stores for products. If you want to grab the app, follow the link below: https://flashfood.app.link/KRYS22KQ4
Optimity
For my fitness and health enthusiasts. I’ve been getting some pretty cool rewards like petro points for simply just walking with this cool app Optimity.
It links up to my Apple health app, and Fitbit and I’m literally getting rewards just for the amount of walking and exercise I do in a regular day. It’s pretty cool!

Digital, Mail and Printable Coupon Sites:
We use a lot of coupons in my house to save a few bucks here and there. At first, I rolled my eyes at this idea, but I’ll be the first to admit I was very wrong. I’ve saved hundreds on just one bill alone by using coupons the proper way. The best sites to grab consistent coupons are:

- https://www.save.ca/
- https://www.pgeveryday.ca/
- http://www.smartsource.ca/

Digital Flyers for Price Matching:
We have downloaded these apps and love them! We use them to locate the best deals for what you need locally, and even clip products in the flyer to use for price matching your items. It makes everything super convenient. Check them out:
If you think I missed something, please shoot me an email and I’d be happy to add them in.
Hope this helps get you started. Join us in the Facebook group for updated freebie campaigns that are live right now!
