Pinch Me has been okay so far. I have been a member since January and haven't recieved anything yet. I do have about 15 boxes that are coming. I hope they speed uo shipping, add more items, and make it easier to earn coins.

LOVE PINCHme.com
August 17, 2017

I get my samples regularly, sometimes I do forget but they remide me several times in advance about sample Tuesday. Definitely not a scam. Had to do a few questionnaires before getting samples.

Fine samples
February 7, 2018

I been a member for quite a while now. Although most of the time you don't get the full product or a reasonable amount it is awesome to get samples to try.

PINCHme is the only quality free sample website where you actually get products.

They target their samples, so you don't get samples every month, but when you do, it's worth the wait.

Pretty much a scam
May 16, 2018

Well I first signed up with Pinchme because I was a member with several product sampling sites on Facebook, thought what the heck give it a try. Well as you sign up the first time you get a sample box but there after you don't get anything. You have to fill out these surveys to earn points to get a chance to get another box. Someone posted on FB that they received a box well, I am supposed to get the same box of samples and I was given a message stating that because of substantial shipping delays of March and April sample boxes will be delayed, well I see in my order history of the site that it states shipping takes at least 2-4 weeks plus the bar meter as stayed in the same spot for a week now. It now has been close to just over 3 weeks and I haven't received the box I am supposed to get that a few have already gotten. I am a blogger and product sampler and not only do I know of sites like Sitejabber but of sites where I can get samples of items faster without as much competition for those free items. I seen the other day they had a live podcast on Youtube/FB where they show these fairly big bottles of items but when I seen a picture of what someone had received and it was small packets the true companies themselves would send you.

I've been a member of PINCH ME (FREE SAMPLE SITE) for around 2 1/2-3 years now and I absolutely LOVE IT!
You answer some questions so they know what kinds of things you'd like to sample, then they'll fill your dashboard with products they think you'd like and you can either apply to try it or not. All you have to do is fill out HONEST reviews to continue being eligible to receive items. You don't get picked for every sample you apply for and it might take a month or two to get going and to start receiving them but once you do you're good to go in my experience.
I get full size samples, small samples, gift cards, ect...
They also have a coin program where every product you apply for you earn coins, every item you are picked for you earn coins, every review you do you earn coins, and now they even have a digital offer section to earn coins and a game section to earn coins.
I'm telling you this program is great and you've got to sign up for it so get out of here already and go to pinch me and sign up! I promise it's worth it if you love receiving free things in the mail!

These pictures show questions they ask when you apply for something, the try products screen where you choose what to apply for, the reviews that are due for you to complete, and lastly is your box and that shows what you've been accepted for to sample and how many days you have to check it out before you forfeit it and the coins are taken back for it.
I really hope this helps 🙂

I've been a member on PinchMe for over a year, and received multiple boxes... sometimes with one or two items, other with four or five. It's first come first serve, and 12 pm ET on the dot. With limited samples available and thousands of users, of course samples will go fast! I completely understand that unlike many people! Plus, you need to qualify to receive samples. Complete your profile. Be more open about subjects and maybe you'll receive more. If you put that you have no pets, you will not get pet samples. If you put that you are on a certain diet, you will not receive samples that include what you're avoiding. It's really a simple concept. And don't get discouraged if your box doesn't look like the ones they post on Instagram & Facebook. Those are ones that bloggers receive because they know they will get more advertisement for the samples! Also if you don't complete your surveys after receiving samples on time that can also lower your chances. If you follow everything I said, I swear you will at some point get a box in the mail! It's completely free. Not 10-30 per month, no info is shared to other places, not a scam or anything. They do however advertise other sites on their page that can be scammy but just don't click the advertisements and you'll be good.

You want to know the truth about Pinchme? Here it is! A while back they would send a few sample here and there. They send you emails for items that you can claim. So you log on to their website and click on the sample. It will show that in order to receive that sample they want you to perform some things. Example: sign up for a paid membership to Experian, sign up for a paid membership dabble, ECT. Various other things like download and play a game and get to level 3. Stuff like that. So you follow thru with the things that are required in order to get the samples. I have NEVER one time got credit or acknowledgement for completing anything! This happened over a dozen times! I would email them over and over with proof of such things like copies of emails from the site they requested, screenshots of the games I downloaded and played to certain levels, screenshots of proof that I completed the actions requested of me. They would always come back to me with BS requesting rediculous information. I had already proved that I did these things! Never did they ever compensate me for anything! It's a real scam! Do not waste your time! It's not worth it for a sample of fruit loops or some cheesy 5.00 gift card, or a cheap Bluetooth speaker of some brand you never heard of! Seriously. That company has pissed me of so many times and I have the emails to prove it. Feel free to comment and if possible I will answer with whatever you want to know. They are liars and do not do what they say! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!

I am on this kick searching for free samples to try then review and surveys to earn some pocket money. This is the 1st OUTRAGEOUSLY false site i have encountered so far. There are no free samples ( their sample tuesdays are things they email you). You are supposedly able to take surveys to earn points towards a free sample box HOWEVER GOOD LUCK WITH THAT. I didnt seem to qualify for one survey. I tried back to back 10 plus times and NOPE I didnt qualify for one.

I signed up for pinchme.com about four months ago. The first month, Ingot a small (1 or 2 punces) bag of coffee and a small sample of shampoo. Filled out the product reviews, got a bunch of "reward" points. Not bad. Month two, all I got was the same coffee sample. Did the review, got points. Go to reward points, I have close to 8000, to see what I could get...
"We're introducing even more ways to get rewarded on PINCHme!
Don't worry, while we're working on the new PINCHme rewards, we'll be tracking each and every point you earn and updating your total points at the top of this page. In the meantime here are the ways you can keep earning points and see more samples!"
What? No way to spend the points?!?!
The breaking staw was now, for the last two months when I've logged in, all I get is,
"Unfortunately there are no samples available to you at this time."
What is this? A product review website, with no products to review, no rewards to spend your earned points on, nothing. It's a trash site now.
Don't even bother with this site!

I have been with PINCHme since March 2016 and today 5/28/17 when I logged into my account so I could make sure to complete surveys within the 30 days I got surprised with having SunDown Naturals B12 500MCG Gummies in my box and the next box isn't for another couple of weeks! This will be my 10th box and there were many times of no box and after reading up online I started updating my profile a couple of days before the next box was due.
