In my hamster group, it was brought to my attention that this flooring company will send you 5 FREE SAMPLES of their fancy marble tiles with FREE SHIPPING. They are mouse sized samples about 5 x 5 or so. I got mine today and they are perfect. Keep a couple in the refrigerator and then plop them in the tanks on hot days. Incidently, they are really nice pieces of marble. I almost feel bad requesting free samples for my pets Embarrassed

It looks like they have warehouses in the US and Canada... so if anyone is interested, here is the site:

https://www.builddirect.com/Marble-Tile-Results.aspx

Just pick the tiles that have the free sample button. You can get 5. Don't ask me why, but if you try to get more or less, there will be a shipping charge. However, you can order 5 more samples the next day. I did. Now I am the proud owner of 10 free marble/granite tiles of all different colors for my little pets. You can also choose from granite or some other materials if you prefer. You can find them under flooring- tile flooring.

Enjoy!

Cool.  Thanks, i got some nice surface of the moon looking ones!


I can only bet in a million years they would never have envisioned a bunch of people ordering them for their mice. lol

If they're really nice, they might make a sale.

The tiles are really, really nice. I got 10 of them and they are all beautiful. I'm sure they use scraps and sure, they might make a sale. The shipped them immediately and I got them the next day. I tried them out today and they got really cold. Excellent tiles, for which i am very appreciative Smile

I bet people who are shopping for flooring or countertops, just throw their samples away! At least we will treasure them Applause

Thanks for letting us know. I was just out shopping and keeping my eyes out for some tiles. Now I don't have to buy anything. Can't wait to get mine.

I guess I read this wrong and thought you pick one tile and they send you 5 of different colors. I only got one sent to me. But I ordered more so now I will have 6:). They are really nice, at least the one I got is.

Would it be a good idea to put the tile under their dens? Or just somewhere in the habitat?

I would put it somewhere else other than their main sleeping area.

That way they can choose where they want to go.

I got mine today, but most of them broke in shipping Neutral

But that's ok, I got two good ones out of the five.

It is really nice looking tile.

That's too bad they were broken Sad

I got three orders and they were all packed well and arrived intact.  You can order more samples if you want, they will ship them.  Like I said, I did it three times.  I got a wide variety of granite and marble in lots of colors!  Just for fun, I put them on my kitchen counter to get an idea of what nice countertops would look like.  And wow!  Their granite and marble are beautiful.  My countertops are garbage.  I never realized how hideous my countertops were until yesterday. Thumbs Down

What a good company to send out free samples without shipping. Granted, I already have some tile and a cutter I can use to turn it into mouse sized pieces, but those tiles are too nice to resist!

My second shipment arrived today and they are so awesome! I think I will order some more too. One of them said polished and it is not polished and its a little dusty. I washed them all and the one not polished is still dusty. I think I will not use that one because of the dust.

Anyone else get a sample with a grid lining plastered to the back? Is that safe to ignore or do I need to try to get it off?
