As the recession continues, a lot of consumers are using the internet to reap the benefits of certain trial offers which are letting them save hundreds of dollars. An example of this type of consumer is Cathy, a married mother with two kids from Cleveland, OH. Not long ago, Cathy found a smart way of mixing two separate teeth whitening product trials from two separate companies -- Smile Whites Pro and Brite Teeth Pro -- to obtain one complete "super" whitening product, similar to what you might get at a dentist's office for $400 or more, just by using only trial offers and paying for shipping charges.

Many people will be able to relate to Cathy's yellow teeth story:

Cathy says, "Truthfully, there are a number of factors that caused my teeth to be yellow. I enjoy wine, coffee, and unfortunately, have been a smoker since I was 21 years old. I smoked for over a decade, and while I eventually quit, my teeth still showed the effects of smoking. Lastly, as a long time self-employed individual, I hardly ever had dental coverage. While I can't guarantee that I brushed my teeth twice a day everyday, I truly believe I had good oral health hygiene. However, my teeth never got any whiter after trying various "whitening toothpastes". Basically, a lifetime of enjoying red wine, drinking coffee, and smoking left me with embarrassing teeth."

Cathy goes on to say, "I do not have a lot of money and I assumed whitening was out of my price range. But my son came to the rescue and showed me how to save some money by finding special offers and coupon codes on the web, which allowed me to only pay a small shipping fee and get a free sample of the product. This gave me the chance to get two separate products without paying anything. My plan was that I would use up the first one, and when that was gone, I would change to the other, and that is precisely what I did. While the first product alone was good, I never expected the improvements I got using the second product in areas of my teeth the first had not affected. As I have stated, I am not any kind of medical professional, but it looks like each of the individual products center on SPECIFIC problem areas, or the second one added an extra boost to the whitening so that it completed the job the first one started. By using both of them successively, I was able to obtain even greater results, and since they both had free trial offers, I was able to get the entire deal by merely paying a few dollars for shipping."

Cathy further explains, "I not only discovered products that gave results as good, if not better than I would anticipate from a dentist, but I found that the teeth whitening companies are desperate for new clients in the current recession and are now presenting free trials of their products." But Cathy went even further -- after discovering the special trial offers, Cathy used some extra resourcefulness, like many people during these hard times, and got special discount coupons which lowered the shipping costs on the trials to under $5 and allowed her to receive both of them for under $7 total.

As Cathy tells it, "I was amazed by the results following the initial 3 days, but when I saw my teeth after a week, I was flabbergasted. I knew this was something big." Most ingenious, maybe, is that combining two separate trial products, and using them consecutively, enabled Cathy to get what might be called a "super whitening" in a very inexpensive manner.

When we questioned Cathy some more about what she found, she said that "The trick is to use BOTH trial items TOGETHER in order to get a whitening job the likes of which you never imagined."
