Walmart: FREE U By Kotex Sample is Back! – Hip2Save - Not Your ...

Thanks to all of you for response. It’s not for my baby. It’s for my nephew over sea. My brother want that brand and he doesn’t have much problem paying for it, but I was trying to help him save. Was asking incase someone know a good deal out there or may be hip2save readers have left over and want to sell it cheap to me.

They have a store locator on their webiste with a dropdown to select where to buy the tins. These things are not always acurate tho:

I just tried my free sample of the pantyliner yesterday. Sooo short and the absorbent part in the center is about the size of a bandaid. Won’t be buying these anytime in the future. Haven’t tried the click tampon yet.

Elevating the role of marketing within the organization has resulted in a longer-term focus that led to a 25% increase in global ad spending last year to $700 million for the $19.7 billion marketer of such brands as Huggies, Kleenex and Cottonelle. The past two years have seen Kimberly-Clark increase reported ad spending as a share of sales by nearly a percentage point to 3.5%, which would be more in the range of 5% if you remove the traditionally low-spending away-from-home and professional health-care product portions of the business from the mix.

K-C also saw its organic sales growth rate rise to 4% last quarter, putting it in league with the likes of Procter & Gamble Co., Reckitt Benckiser and Colgate-Palmolive Co. despite reliance on some generally slower-growing categories and more concentration in slower-growing developed markets than those players. And the company has seen major turnaround or new growth for such brands as Kotex, Poise, Kleenex and Depend in recent years, thanks to new programs developed under the integrated marketing planning system Mr. Palmer has spearheaded.
