i think that a company is looking for a certain demographic, and for this company it was more then likely people with diabetes and when we freebie hunters all log on and request samples it over whelms the sample dept, i don't think what they have done is wrong, they posted an apology and are willing to now go forward and send requests after consideration of the survey. and now they are prepared to handle the response, and having to redo the survey isn't that bad, honestly, especially where you are getting something free for doing it. at least they posted the situation and just didn't send the samples as some companies do. my respect for this company has not changes. i could understand if you heard about this through the regular channels if you have diabetes but complaining about what they have done by actually going through a freebie site is kinda hypocritical don't you think? sorry if i hurt anyones feelings but it is my opinion
