I'm never been brave enough to just ask for stuff outright. Keep in mind, you and some other EG'ers tend to get really large purchases in one shot. Of course they're going to give you samples--more stuff for you to buy! But I often go in there and have to very carefully consider what I buy because of the price, so I'm not as big a source of profit for them.
On the other hand, I'm a hell of a lot more likely to shell out the cash for something I've already tried. When something is pricey (like Herbalism) I'm not going to buy a lot of it until I know I like it.
BTW? Sod soap and Ocean Salt aren't vegan. I don't know what's in them that isn't....must ask one day.
