    Got these today, haven’t smoked in years, felt the pouch was a bit strong for me. Bit of dizziness.

    Do you mind if I ask what bottle and stuff? The package I got today had shreddies, ballymaloe dressing, a plant based drink and some protein bars. Seems to be the same as what's on their insta page?

    Ours was the April box. Maybe you got the May box early?

    Not sure, my email just said the Spring box and looks the same as all the stories on Instagram! Interesting! Probably the case alright though.

    Regardless, the salad dressing was lovely, not the biggest fan of Shreddies haha. The two mccain chips vouchers are nice and the protein bars / mude drink were lovely!

    I signed up for this in May or June last year before it started. I got the first two boxes, then nothing for months. I even forgot about it until I saw someone on twitter posting about their box in Jan or Feb. I emailed them to see if I'd been bumped from the list and their reply was:
    Hi $hifty,

    Thank you for your email.

    I've checked, and you are still on our system. Samplify has grown to a database of 20,000+ users. We select 6,000 users at random each month to receive a box.

    If you miss out one particular month, you'll still be in the running each new month.

    Regards etc.

    Just now, when i searched for the above email, I discovered a new email from Apr 30th telling me I'll receive the May box, that's my first one this year.

    Got a message from FastWay today that they will be delivering a package from SampleIt. This will be my first box. I hadn't seen the email from SampleIT but it turns out it was filtered to another tab in Gmail. Looks like some booze of some sort, cans of Summer Spritzers and a metal straw.

    I have never had hard seltzer before but IMO it is terrible. Its literally alcoholic water. There is basically no flavor. Everclear, water and carbonation is all it is :(

    That makes me feel better. Want to try Hard Seltzer but am afraid of paying for it and then pouring it away.

    I don't think it's a great example of them to be fair. I quite like seltzers but didn't like the sampleit ones. Also, drinking it though the straw made it taste much worse. Made it fizzier on the way up.

    It was a bit disappointing - straw was the main component.
    Better than nothing though!

    My second one another single item a packet of mcvities chocolate biscuits, 6 in pack, definitely nothing special, will wait on survey.

    Came in a blue plastic pack.

    At least It's something, we had with our tea just there, would rate it same really as the Aldi choc digestives.

    I got the survey in the junk folder and it was from mcvities so here's hoping there's more coming our way 😂

    Yeah I got the same mail today as well. I signed up months ago and this is my first box. My thoughts are that you’re only going to get one that matches what ever preferences that you ticked when you were signing up. I’m not a smoker so wouldn’t have received the one with the nicotine products. I’m interested to see what’s in this one.
