PINCHme

I have enjoyed the PinchMe website, I have received quite a few great samples. When I first started, they didn't do the earning coins for shipping so that has taken some time to get used to but I have received more samples since that was put into place.There is a bit of a wait to get your samples but so far I have gotten most of the promised products. Still waiting on more.

I've been a member of pinchme.com for a few years now. When it first started, there were samples every week and you could just choose whatever you'd like. I used to get all kinds of fun stuff and full size samples like makeup, nail polish, soaps, snacks, candy, treats for my dog, etc. Ever since they made me make a "profile," I hardly ever get offered any samples now because my profile "doesn't match the brand partners' offers." Really disappointing! They now offer samples about once a month so if I don't qualify then I don't get anything. Sounds like they've got several hundred thousand people using the site so I guess that's part of the problem. But hey, I got some great free stuff in the past so I can't complain too much

I can't tell you how much I love Pinchme! They are truly fabulous. Everything from support questions to providing awesome samples to try. Many that I've included as a staple in my life. I have received so many items from them and only had to answer a few simple, nothing ever strenuous.questions as well as sometimes provide a review which is the least I could do. Plus it doesn't take long to collect up the coins needed to have it shipped which is always free technically. Just alone this month I've already collected up to 19-20 items. Not to mention, they really do stand by their word and send them to you! I promise you will fall in love with Pinchme like I have

Pinch me is the best ever. Great samples, free products, free shipping and opportunities to try and review new products from food, pets, electronics, makeup, technology and the list goes on! Sign up today I guarantee you will not be disappointed! They email you, you have a choice to apply to try the products, answer a few questions and that's it. You get notified if you are selected for the product almost immediately. The box is shipped out within 2-4 weeks, free of charge. All they ask is you post your unboxing on social media such as Instagram Facebook. It's that simple. The products are full size, name brand as well. I have been a PinchMe member for years and I plan to continue. Most of us are on our phones everyday mindlessly scrolling, why not make the scrolling worthwhile, join Pinch Me! It's a win win!

I used to receive quite a few samples from Pinchme. Not anymore. It's rare to qualify for anything lately. Not happy with Pinchme as I qualified for, and checked out the box that included my dream survey item. When I emailed as asked where it was, I was first told I didn't qualify. Then I sent proof that the item was in my box and checked out including box number. Meghan then told me that the supply was exhausted even tho I provided 3 links to items that you can literally get anywhere! I told Meghan that and also emailed Jeremy reid who is the CEO or somethign. Never received a reply to that. Pinchme seems to be going downhill.

So pinchme had gotten better about Shipping and getting orders out etc but this company has been skimming my points! Unless you have all day everyday to invest just don't. So I understand if you don't check a product out in time you lose those points. But I kept noticing my points dropping, drastically. For some reason I can't access the games or surveys to do points so I was working off reviews and applying for products which you can imagine was a never ending battle... well I started tallying my points in a book of my own. When about 100 or so was missing I emailed and questioned it.whoa did my points really drop after that. So I just sat and watched. I would get approved for things I never applied for and the time would run out and they take away points I never even applied for I guess! I had so many reviews and several 100 points built up that had nothing to do with time etc... well here's the gist now. I have several products in my bag but barely 100 points now. So if I have 3+ products that's supposed to be at least 150 points at the bare 3 minimum. So I just checked for my screenshots I have 2 products and now only 40 points. That's 60 off right there. They want me to review the last products I got but I'm not wasting my time anymore. Someone should tell these product companies! I really had thought they'd gotten better, I did. But I get no reply or help from customer service about why I can't access the games or surveys and they just give you the same old you lose your points after time speal when I ask about that so I'm just done... I work have a life and don't have time to get bombarded by spam etc on the site. I was a good member to!

Pinch me is a scam website. They are nothing more than a data mining site. The photo I am posting is them bribing people to leave positive reviews under the guise that someone will receive something.
I was a member for 2 months and qualified for 4 boxes. Got 3 "box is on its way" emails and two months later, never received anything. Now my phone is constantly blowing up from scammers they sold my information to.

Received numerous spam emails after signing up, I was supposed to receive a product and it never arrived. It's not just me though, numerous friends of mine either got the wrong item, not all items ordered or it never showed up.

They also have tons of scam links on their site and their business practices are shady, including them asking people who use their site to leave dishonest 5 star reviews!

Ridiculous, dishonest and possibly not legal, avoid this data mining site at all costs.

Many, many years ago when this site started, you could actually get the freebies they advertised. Now? You are forced to complete surveys and tasks to earn points. When you finally have enough points to get your box shipped, good luck getting anything. Of the last several boxes I've earned points to get, I received 1 tiny sample out of maybe 20-30. I get nothing but excuses from them if they ever bother to reply to an email. This site does a bait and switch, forcing you to spend your time earning points that wind up netting you nothing.

Recently PinchMe has started sending out emails to users asking them to "Please leave 5 star ratings" on sitejabber and Trustpilot in exchange for "better samples". They even included the language, "If you scratch our back, we'll scratch yours." This a direct FTC violation and I feel this site should honestly be shut down.

There are no legitimate samples. Now they force you to take the awful bonus samples on Tuesday and there's no way to delete it. It becomes thee only thing you get in your samples box for the week. It's all scams. Anything decent you have to pay for subscriptions. It's advertised as this great saving service but in all my time there, the two samples I did win or get never came. So I deleted my profile and call it a SCAM. They force you to accept a bad sample while supposedly others get these fantastic things, boxes filled with things. I don't believe it at all.

Well I have gotten 2 boxes already still waiting on the rest. Pinchme not that bad but they could do something about getting coins easier way. Yes I get spam emails all the time. It's very annoying I don't mind do surveys for the stuff

I've been enjoying PinchMe for a few years now and I like their latest updates. I've been getting lots of samples even full size sometimes. You do have to work a bit to apply and have patience to receive the package, but it is all free so is worth it. The only reason I gave four stars is because i never got a big item like an appliance from them yet, although I am a loyal member for years.

Used to be a good (decent) sample site with actual samples you'd want to try out but now you have to jump through hoops in order to hopefully, fingers crossed, qualify for a sample box. After filling out tons of surveys only to find out you're eligible for the same (LOL) free sample canvas photo or magazine discounts Etc. That you were before wasting your time. Lame samples that you can always find on your own anyway.
Also, there's been times when it said I finally qualified for a decent sample, added to cart and submitted, and umm I'm still waiting... It has been months, never got it.
It is clear it's a waste of time and they don't have their stuff together to run the site nor the program efficiently.

I don't know what happened. This used to be a first come first serve sight to test smalls samples and provide feedback for companies that gave out the samples. Mutually beneficial. Now, it's take surveys that constantly reject you. They come of as scammers now, but occasionally you get selected for great samples. I check my email to see if I qualify every month, but any further effort is a waste time. I can easily go other places to get paid to take surveys that work. Couponing is more fruitful in getting cheap or free stuff than PinchMe. Sad, a short era of sampling has ended.

I've checked pinchme for three months on sample days(and I'm there a minute before samples are supposed to become available and refresh the page when the clock turns, so its not bc they are running out) and have yet to 'qualify' for actual samples. Offered partner coupons for signing up with partner company. Waste of time! I believe that when they started out this was a great site, I heard wonderful things about it, but I think it's gotten away from them and is crap now.

I love the variety of samples and that you can get full sized products and coupons for totally free products. It's an interesting way to find to brands and companies to try. However, I have had an issue where I was told I was getting things by mistake and it takes a while to get things. Customer service needs a lot if work as does the section where you earn coins as most links are broke or don't reward you. All in all ok site though.

Great Samples! I love trying new things, and I have by using PinchMe. It can be a bit tedious to keep applying and actually reach your 600 coin goal in order to ship out any samples you've qualified for before the time runs out and you lose them. There are ways to earn coins to help out with this, but after signing up for so many things I am starting to run out of ways to reach that goal in time. Overall, a great site if you have the time to apply for all the samples. Takes a bit of patience
