When "free" really isn't.

I was amused today to find a "competitor" site offering "free" two-ounce essiac samples. They mail to the continental US only, and they will send you the "free" sample for a $9.95 shipping charge.

THEN they have the nerve to say elsewhere on their website that they aren't making any money from shipping, that they only charge the customer what it costs them to mail you the product.

Let me tell you something. There is nowhere in the US that it costs $9.95 to mail two ounces of anything, unless you send it overnight. Which I'm pretty sure this "competitor" is not doing.

We are proud to offer a one-ounce free sample of our superb essiac tea eight-herb blend, TOTALLY FREE. No shipping, no handling, nothing. This is for US customers only, but we won't charge you a thing. Just send us your mailing address. We'll send you the sample right away, complete with brewing instructions. We won't spam you later, either. Promise.
