Asking for samples

Some of the best ways to find things to write about is to pick up promotional products from vendors or stores or just samples from counters. Not only does this help you test if a product will work well on you, it also gives you fodder. Not everyone has the thick skin to ask for samples at the counter so it pays to grow one. Just be polite but interested and ask if they can let you have a sample to try. Many times, they will oblige. They do want to sell a product after all and since we don't have a return policy here in Malaysia, samples are the best way to go. Try it for yourself and see!
