What is in each Sista sampler? 

Each campaign has samples and full-sized products from various companies or promos from various non profit organizations. On average I suspect several items will include bath/body/hair products, candle, jewelry, food-related items, pregnancy/baby products. Our sistas have a variety of talents so there is no telling what is in store. We will display the companies for each campaign along with the item they are promoting in our sampler boxes.

 Does each box contain the same companies?

Not always, because of the different number of samples we receive from each company, not all boxes contain the same items. Although, we do try our best to include as many companies as possible in each box. Some companies send in 25 samples and other send in 100 so of course you might not get a company that you were really wanting to try if they don’t send in enough. Email your favorite companies and encourage them to send in enough for everyone!  

 How many samples come in the box and do all boxes have the same amount of samples?

The number of samples in each Sampler varies according to the number of contributions for each  campaign. The goal is at least 12-15 samples in each Sampler although it may certainly extend to more.  It is all dependant on how many contributors we have each campaign.

 It is In the Company of Sistas’ (ITCOS) goal to make sure that every box has the same amount of samples. That is why we don’t put the boxes on sale until the businesses get their sample to us. Then we can establish how many samples per box there will be.

Due to the limited number of contributed samples, you may not receive a sample from every single contributor.

When you're looking at the sneak peeks, remember there's no guarantee of what you're going to get, but you're more likely to get items listed under the 75+ than the 25+!  

What ages are the Sista Sample boxes best for?

 

The Sista sample box is obviously mostly geared towards women although there will certainly be items for teens and men depending upon the website.  Sista sample boxes are wonderful for teens and adults. Some items are geared to women because we are a “sista-based" company although many items are not gender-related.

We suggest the Sampler's recipients to supervise their children when opening and going through their Samplers, to prevent them from coming into contact with questionable material.

 


 How much is the Sista Sampler box?

The Sampler box is $21.50 each for U.S. residents and $36.50 for outside the US. Shipping included!

 

Can I buy more than one box and ship to different addresses?

Absolutely. We will be more than happy to ship them out to as many people as you list.  The shipping is included in the price!  When ordering, specify the addresses in the comment box at checkout or email us directly.

 Can I return the box if I do not like it?

No, unfortunately we do not take returns.  It is the responsible of the company who provided the samples to make sure their items are secure.  Please contact the company if you are having problems with their samples.   

 

Can I choose the companies I want in my box?

The samplers are pre-made and dependant on how many samples we receive from each contributor there is no guarantee you will get particular samples.  Each box will have a variety of different items that I am sure you will love.

 Will I know which companies are participating?

Yes. Our sneak peak gallery post pictures of the samples our contributors send as their sample get here.

 Where do I go to purchase a sampler?
