It's a more interactive way of shopping.You can save some pretty good money.Earn points Play games and meet new people. Definitely out of the box way of doing things.
Update December 4,2023:
My money was finally refunded in kind of a stealth manner. Neither my credit card company nor Blidz sent me a notification.
Update September 24,2023:
Blidz continues to rip me off!
On August 30,2023 I received a response from Joy at Blidz where she said that I would receive my refund in 7-14 days, "Dear Dan, Please allow 7-14 days for your refund to be processed back to your original payment method."
It is now September 24, which is 25 days after her response, and still no refund. As a reminder, this is also seven weeks after I initially asked for the refund. Clearly, Blidz is a scam organization and should be avoided.
Original Review:
I purchased a grocery item from Blidz.com and only found out that I needed to force a friend to buy the same item after they posted the credit card transaction. When I did not spam a friend yo complete my task, they placed my money inside their system for a purchase in the future (similar to store credit). I have been trying to get an actual refund for this fraudulent transaction and so far no action from them. I have reported them to the Better Business Bureau and disputed the credit card transaction. They are ripping me off and I'm posting about my experience on Yelp, Google, and everywhere I can think of. I have demanded they refund my money multiple time with no results.
Everything about this is a total scam. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS WEBSITE. They don't ship your product. They tell you that you need to build a team... Then when someone supposedly joins your team they don't ship your product. Then you tell them you want a refund and they tell you that you'll only get in store credit. Why would anyone want in store credit? This site is very frustrating.

I thought I was buying a bag of rice for a great price - I submitted payment, you can clearly see what I was purchasing - a bag of rice - and instead of getting shipping information, I immediately got a response saying I had to find someone else to join to BUY THIS WITH ME! I was bombarded with emails saying I have to get other people to join to pay as a group! WHAT THE HECK? It doesn't say that on their website - I sent about 8 emails telling them to cancel my purchase, NO RESPONSE AT ALL - in the end I disputed with my credit card company - it was a small purchase, under $3 but it's still a big scam. They're sending me emails about all sorts of crazy things - AVOID THIS COMPANY.

Signed up for a trial only to realize there is absolutely no way to cancel it. I had to cancel my credit card so I wouldn't be charged the $8.99 monthly fee. Total scam. These other ratings are fake.

They advertise low prices and you place your order. Then they tell you AFTER YOU PAY that you have to find another buyer to chip in or you won't get the item. When you don't because that was never your intention and ask for a refund they ignore you. Then when no one else buys in they write you and say, sorry no one bought in and now you have a credit with us! WTH? How can they get away with scamming customers like this! DO NOT PATRONIZE THEM!

Overall, I can say I have actually been really quite impressed with the Blidz app - and I might add, pleasantly surprised. Even had to deal with Customer Service, and it was easy! :)
This company is a total scam. Once they have your money they will not respond to you. I should have researched them before I gave them my money. Don't do what I did. Stay away!

Snake oil company. Advertises prices that are insanely low to sucker you into buying, then require you to get other people to sign up to get that merchandise. It's basically an online MLM scheme. Then they don't refund your money when you don't get people to sign up. They keep it like a store credit. Appears to be borderline (or over the line) criminal
EDITED after receiving feedback:
First, received a message from "Joy", clearly a Blidz employee, saying that refunds are available. This is a LIE, unless they have updated their scammy customer service. I pursued every avenue to receive a refund and it simply was not available by any means.
Second, I have received messages from 3 other Bldz customers telling me that their experience was exactly the same as mine.
Third, look very carefully at the 5 star reviews. The language reads exactly like it was taken from a marketing department. As of this writing, no one is finding those reviews helpful. I believe some 5 star reviews are from compensated reviewers.
This company is running a scam, so my strongest recommendation is stay far, far away from them.

Blidz uses extremely low prices to get your attention, then ask for a credit card in order to order, as soon as you give your credit card you are then locked into a monthly payment membership, when you start calling, emailing texting, they do not respond. I will have to get legal help because they have my card info THIS COMPANY IS A TOTAL SCAM

Blitz is a great place to buy in the moment purchase I would not howe er recommend it if ur needing to make a expensive purchase or a purchase that is needed for a long time
Used this App several times and I have nothing but good things to say. I've been satisfied with the products and shipping times have been fantastic. A+++++++
I'm going to be totally honest.this is a great app to get some really good deals...you have to have another person willing to buy the same item to get it cheaper.but it's worth the download
Keep your distance from these miserable Blidz scammers, with the appearance of a social network and purchases, I paid these scammers for their membership on the first day, and I bought from them for a total of almost 50 dollars, they NEVER recorded my purchase for me, nor did they give me a tracking number, or anything, they just respond with a damn recorded phrase. It's been 6 months since my purchase and they have not responded, nor refunded or anything, these are scammers, with the appearance of a social shopping network... BE CAREFUL WITH THESE MISERABLES...
