Valspar Paint will be handing out coupons for a free 8-ounce paint sample beginning today at noon Eastern time.

You have to register on Valspar’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/valsparpaint and the coupon is good at Lowe’s, the site says.

This is a great opportunity to test if that color of paint you’ve been eyeing is really what you want to buy for a big project. Or it’s also a good way to get the paint you need for a small project. However you plan to use it, it’s free.
