While these freebies aren't currently available, here's their free active coupons on Kotex's site. I've also included a few jokes from over the years, plus listed what used to be available just in case it comes back!
Truth Time: For years, I've always mentally interpreted the free U by Kotex sample packs as a University. As in the University of Kotex, where they were teaching women how to use tampons or something. I don't know, I never really gave it much thought. What do you expect from a single guy in his thirties?
But it wasn't until today that I typed the title above and suddenly went “ohhhh, U as in they make products just for you, no matter who you are!” I'm a slow learner.
Or … is it subliminal messaging … “you buy Kotex” … 🤔
These free U by Kotex samples got me wondering what my mail lady must think I do. One day I'm getting seemingly normal freebies for a single guy in his twenties and the next I'm getting Parents magazine and a box of Kotex items. Sure, I could try talking to her, but I still haven't found a smooth way of saying, “oh, by the way, I don't actually use all of those tampons!”
This freebie includes the following samples:
- 1 U by Kotex CleanWear Regular Pad
- 1 U by Kotex barely there Liner
- 2 U by Kotex Click Regular Tampons
After reading everything I'll get via this free Kotex sample offer, I've come to one conclusion: I'm going to make a horrible husband. My future wife is going to need me to go buy her some feminine products one day and I promise you I'm going to mess it up. Thank goodness I'm not easily embarrassed or there would be no hope for me. I'll have an easier time trying to decipher the Rosetta Stone than I would successfully shopping for my significant other. I better hope she really likes my dimples or I'm screwed.
I don't know why but I found the free U by Kotex sample pack's confirmation message to be highly enjoyable – “the goods are on their way.” I don't know why we don't refer to freebies as “the goods” more often. Saying I was hunting for goods all day long sounds a lot better than “Oh, I spent a few hours looking for free tampons.”
Too bad there's nothing there which I can use. Unless those items with wings actually function as wings. I've always wanted to fly south for the winter!
I have got a lot of free fem. products lately.. my 17 yr old son hates checking the mail now..lol..
Heheheheh looks cool, I love when Kotex gives away so many freebies…I have so many of them, hardly ever have to buy them 🙂
There sure has been alot of free personal feminine products lately LOL 🙂
This sub-brand actually originates in England and Australia.
Neon colored tampons now that’s interesting!
LOL you guys are funny. I think Goob said in the past that he gives the samples to women in his family. I have these sent to my mom who no longer needs them and she gives them to my sisters-in-law or coworkers.
Torpedos for your model U-Boat collection? LOL
All I can say is it’s about time a company realizes girls have been waiting for the chance to be able to choose tampon applicator colors. Lol! My 14yr old daughter and I were cracking up over this!
i had to try 4 times till i finally got a thank u, i was about to give up!
Goob, at least you receive your samples–I had an ickky mailman that would leave the mail card but no sample. I would take the mail card back to the post office and ask “what my mailman is doing with my sample, using it or what?” My samples started to arrive the next week.
Yeah, maybe you don’t want to even open that can of worms 😉
Thanks!! Like another, I hardly have to buy any with all the freebies!! But, did anyone else notice there’s a video called “how to properly insert a tampon?”
I was kinda scared…
Kinda off topic, but if you wanted to seem cool, you could say you work at a ski/snowboard resort (Not sure where you live). Those rescuers use tampons when someone ends up impaled by their ski sticks cause they’re very compact, light, and they work well cause the hole is usually very small and round.
Thanks Goob for these samples – my wife will appreciate these – yes, the women’s shelter can definitely use these and also the Red Cross probably due to folks getting burned out – I know our Good Samaritan Center collects items like these; when you post the Pampers, Huggies, UnderJams, etc. we get a big box together for them since we don’t have any little ones any more. They can always use them due to the homeless and folks needing some assistance these days. Any samples can always be used to by the church for their pantry – way to go, Goob on always thinking of us!
I notice that you have to enter the info a couple of times before it takes it and then says Thank You
Hey what a great idea i just give them to who ever comes over and needs. I will consider doing that also.
What do you do with the samples you don’t use? I hope you donate them to a battered women’s shelter or homeless shelter – They can seriously use these types of samples. I save all my unneeded samples (including shampoo & lotion from hotels, etc) and a few times a year donate it to a domestic violence shelter.
I resubmitted my info, and this time I got a message saying, “Thanks, your samples are on the way.” Plus you can enter the email addresses of 3 friends. So if you’re not sure if it went through, try again!
dym, that’s not very polite! Goob would NEVER ask you what YOU do with your girly samples! lol
Thanks! I get so many free samples for Tampons and Pads that I hardly have to buy them. Seems like I get something from different companies weekly!
and they really come in those bright pretty colors?…lol…what will they come up with next?…ones with hearts and stars on the applicator?…lol..also u can get two per household so can give one to a friend!
not sure if it went through, i pressed submit and it went to a different page and didn’t say anything about the sample..so hope it worked, thanks!
Teehee… this made me giggle 😉
Goob, I was wondering.. Do you actually put on these forms that you are “Male”? I wonder why they even ask that anyway! 😛
So Goob, what DO you do with your girly samples?
got 2 tampons & 2 pads/liners…………. nice & in a cute little box
Just stock up on the freebies and you won’t have to worry about going to buy any!
Goob, I LOVE dimples, and I would never ask you to buy me feminine products… as long as you used your freebie smarts to supply me with a closet full of free t-sirts. (free t-shirts are awesome) =)
I got the kotex samples a couple of weeks ago. They really do come in a gift box! It’s kind of nice. It made my mysterious lady-parts feel like Queen For A Day.
I have to agree with Kelley. Whenever the wife has me grab a box or something or another? Its an explicit instruction and color of box and type. And they’ll show you the box in advance too… There’ll be no messing up, or you don’t return home…
Goob, I don’t think you need to worry about your future wife and buying her feminine products…she is going to give you a very explicit list. NEVER deviate from the list and you’ll be good to go 🙂 Just a tip from a wife who has a husband who reads the list and shops from the list!
