Free Samples

[Bigcman0789]

I have been reading for a long time about how a company has sent them a free sample to them to try. How does that work?

You have to have more than 8 posts on a forum.

All n00b hazing aside - you have to be an active member of the community posting helpful and insightful comments about hookah proving you know your stuff. A number of reviews is extremely helpful because that's what they want - and they want someone who is going to give a detailed honest review and not just say "this sucked" and move on.

So - start posting like crazy (in a meaningful and helpful way) and respond to vendors when they post - make them know who you are!

Unfortunately, free samples are one of those things you can't really ask for - you just have to be in the right place at the right time.

Yeah, I forgot to mention the obvious -- people send YOU free samples because they want you to do something for them.

You begging for free shit sounds like you're begging for free shit.

Sit back, relax, and let them come to you - because I will tell you honestly as someone who's been a reviewer for other things, the obligations of having monitoring your samples, making time to actually do the deed (smoking shisha, reading the book, etc), then going back and writing up the full review) - it becomes MORE stressful than you can imagine.

yeah, if you want samples then you have to stick around and people will eventually offer them, most of the time its being in the right place at the right time. other times they give out samples to a select few. and if HF doesnt load try another browser

agreed on all of the above

you need to be a regular on here and be here at the right time. They do just randomly pop up out of nowhere. And it isnt free, it costs you your insight on the product in question.
a big contributor to you being eligable would be doing reviews and posting them...have some shisha, smoke up and right a review.

I use mozilla at home. Does anyone Else have these problems with mozila?

[r1v3th3ad]

I did, then I completed uninstalled it and reinstalled the new version

[jezter6]

I use mozilla 1.7.13 exclusively with 0 issues here at HF.

There are several good internet browsers around these days. Try Mozilla FireFox, Opera, or the new Chrome browser by Google. They are all solid. I'm sure one or more will work fine for you and this site.
