What is Amazon Sample Mania?
Sample Mania is one of the special offers of the Amazon Great Indian Festival 2026, which began on 8 October 2026. It sits alongside Buy More Save More, Exchange Mela and Amazon Combos. Brands, mostly in beauty, personal care, health, grocery and home essentials, let you try a product at a very low price. Amazon’s own tagline for it is “Try before you buy.”
Many of these products are listed at a few hundred rupees, and the coupon brings the final price down to the sample price in the section heading, for example “Buy at INR 99”.
How to get Amazon free samples (Sample Mania) step by step
Amazon shows a 4-step process on its banner. Here it is in full:

Clip the coupon at checkout. The price drops to the sample price.

Older coupon codes from past years (like the Bare Anatomy and Rivela samples) have expired, so I have removed them. For other brands giving away samples, see my full list of free samples in India with free shipping.
Tips to get more Amazon samples
- Check at 3 PM every day. New samples are added at that time, so your eligible products can change.
- Look in every price tier. You may be eligible for ₹99 but not ₹1, or the other way round.
- Try both the Amazon app and the website if the page looks empty on one of them.
- Prime helps with delivery. Non-Prime orders can have a delivery fee on low-value orders, and Prime members can usually avoid it.
- Share honest feedback. Amazon’s own steps end with “Share your feedback”, so review the sample after you try it.
- Join my Telegram channel to get live loot alerts as soon as they start.
Why does Amazon give samples?
Brands want real customer feedback before they stock larger quantities, and customers get to try products for the price of a tea.
