Should We Remove Free Sample Posts at the Companies Request?

Last night I posed a question on Facebook after finding a comment from a company asking us to remove their free sample posting we made. I thought it would be a good discussion point, but I took some heat from it. People are passionate about their feelings, I respect that, however it gets tricky.

Especially on the internet.

Personally I think it’s a silly request to ask of after they have offered the sample for over 2 years… and really just a silly request in general. The free sample offer is from Bragg Health and they asked us to remove the post since they are “a small company”. I get that part, but they can also limit how many they send each month…day…year.. etc.

I turned to our Facebook community and got pretty mixed responses as if I should remove it or not.

My decision is not to remove the post. However I will not be mentioning it again on this website or our Facebook page. I think that is fair on both sides.

This will protect them from getting a ‘blast’ of new submissions, but also allowing our readers to find their offer on our site.

What do you think?

Really I think the best way for a site to prevent this sort of thing is offer a maximum amount of samples then REMOVE the offer themselves. Below you can answer our poll:

The California Wine Club

Some of the best House Parties and free items are from alcohol companies or related items. Since they are so rare it seems like they give out some great stuff. One thing I’ve always wanted to get is wine! If you like wine too, I want to tell you about a great offer.

The California Wine Club is a perfect gift for people who enjoy wine. Not sure what to get someone as a gift? You can’t go wrong with a decent bottle of wine. But what if you don’t know what’s “good”?

If you join The California Wine Club they take the guesswork out of that. The premier club offers you a choice of 1 red & 1 white wine (or 2 reds or 2 whites) each month for $36.95 plus shipping/tax (total works out to be around $50).

I had never received wine in the mail before, but the process was simple. The only downside was that the delivery person was attractive and I had barely woken up my wine arrived. I got over it though 😉

I received my package pretty fast, a red and a white. 2008 ZinMan Zinfandel and 2009 El Dorado Chardonnay to be more specific. I enjoyed both wines with a friend. I would definitely get them again, even though they are typically what I buy when I’m looking for wine.

Receiving things in the mail that I don’t know EXACTLY what is coming, is pretty exciting. Plus since I enjoy wine and trying new kinds, it’s fun too.

If you are thinking about giving one as a gift, The California Wine Club has offered our readers a special 10% discount. Use promo code freesample at discount. On top of that, they will send an extra bottle FREE just for being one of our readers. There is no obligation to stay past the first month.

There are two rules though, you can’t to be under 21 and they can’t ship to Utah. Sorry!

Win A Free Month

It just keeps on getting better. They are also offering a one month subscription to a lucky reader.

To Enter: Comment below about what type of wine you would be excited to try. Not sure? Check out this wine list for some ideas.

For an additional entry you can like The California Wine Club on Facebook or Twitter. For your additional entry you must leave a separate comment.

1 winner will be chosen at random. Comments will be closed at 11:59pm PST on October 14th, 2011.

The prize will be fulfilled by our sponsor. Remember you must be 21 or older, and no Utah residents.

I did receive a free wine subscription for this review/giveaway but the opinions are my own.
