Products in Small, Sample-size Amounts?

[Accumulator]

I`d like to pick up a few sample-sizes of universally useful products (QD, shampoo, stuff like that as opposed to, say, polishes) to contribute to the Jag Club`s raffle at the upcoming Christmas party (the proceeds go to Providence House).



In the past I`ve contributed close-out-priced WWMFs, and last year I got samples of FK425/146 from FK1, but I dunno where to look this year :think: :nixweiss



Any vendors offer such sizes, preferably nice and cheap?

I have seen sample sizes of the Adams products before at car shows. You might try sending them a PM.

Call Paul at Chemical Guys or Meghan at Autogeek and see if either one could help you out.

I saw a sampler kit from Poorboys World, but I think it may have been a SEMA special.



Mothers has "sampler" sizes of their Protectant, shampoo, cleaner wax and Showtime. They retail at around a buck each, so you may be able to get some cheaper. (Not sure if you were looking for a more "upscale" brand.)

Optimum Sample bundle is under $20 and has some really nice stuff in it, as well as a microfiber towel.

Thanks folks, I appreciate all the suggestions.



Some of the companies mentioned are ones I don`t do business with (for one reason or another) and nah...I`m not gonna call anybody and ask as I don`t want anyone to feel obligated to help me out. I know I could phone up [a number of vendors I patronize] and get something, but I`d rather just spend a little (heh heh, *very* little ) money on something.



No Mother`s samples in my area....sigh...that woulda been easy. Though something people don`t see in the autoparts store would probably appear more "special" (scare quotes intentional, but hey...it`s a raffle where people choose their prizes from a pile of stuff).



So far I think Xtreme-Klean might`ve hit it with the ADS idea, I vaguely recalled that they sell samples so I`ll see what they have to offer.



But I`d sure appreciate any additional suggestions too! Last year my pal with the MKII broughtsome Griot`s stuff, and I know I can do as well without spending as much money

Heh heh, yeah...that`s what I just figured out

Phil (detailersdomain) throws nice little samplers in big order sometimes, so it`s obvious this stuff is out there. Got a small jar of Lusso Oro last time.

Where have you seen the Mothers for sale at?

I haven`t seen any for a while, but I have seen them at Dollar stores before.

(And in the "bucket o` stuff" specials that are all samplers and a peanut sponge that seem ever so popular every spring at parts and department stores.



Mr. Accumulator, if you wanted to contact Forrest or Mothers directly ,you may be able to get some shipped to you from California. (info@mothers.com )

They also have a "car show goody bag" deal that looks interesting (they need 90 days advance warning, though)

contact Optimum products. The owner really helped me out when I did a presentation on ONR for a couple of local car clubs. O is a really great company in my opinion, great products, great service.

Yeah, and they actually sell almost every product in a sample size (8oz or smaller). To me that says tons about a company. Selling sample sizes means you have confidence in your products. The OP seems to shy away from Optimum though, why is that Accumulator?
