PINCHme has a rating of 3.2 stars from 385 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally satisfied with their purchases. Reviewers satisfied with PINCHme most frequently mention free samples, full size, and new products. PINCHme ranks 5th among Free Stuff sites.
Without Pinchme, I wouldn't have tried half the products that they have made me aware of. With that said, I wish I had opportunity to earn more coins to qualify for more products, but half the offers listed have bad links that do not allow me to download the apps to earn extra points. Also, the listed links to earn points by taking surveys always leads to a message that I'm unqualified to take them, so they are a waste of time to click on to try to earn additional points. I do appreciate the opportunity to try different products however. One additional criticism I have is it takes forever sometimes to receive the products that you qualify to try. I'm talking months from the time you qualify to when you receive the box containing those products.
I was told that my free Pinchme sample boxes were mailed April 15 and January 13 2024. Still haven't got them. Maybe their being sent on a boat around the world and will take another 1 or 2 years. Such a fake place.
PINCHme didn't send me any samples but DID sell my e-mail address to other scammers. I wonder if the excellent reviews on this site are from employees--often, if you see only "excellent" and "horrible" reviews it's a sign that something isn't right.
Go Ahead and Join PinchMe if you would like to experience a real sample site! Once you join, you can complete surveys to earn PinchMe coins. PinchMe coins can then be used to purchase items on their website. Free samples are offered on a daily basis and you have to qualify to receive the sample. Once you have received and used the sample, you write a review for the sample. Easy and you'll get used to checking to see what sample is being offered that day. Real samples and not just endless surveys with no rewards. Join!
Tip for consumers:
Not just a survey website where you never receive the samples. Actual samples of a variety of products.
Products used:
Samples are posted daily and you have to see if you were to qualify for the sample!
My neighbor told me about this website and I was so excited to get free products to try but alot of their things sell out fast. I was able to get some shampoo and conditioner and some lotion recently, they arrived in a nice box.
I've been using this site for years now. You just have to understand how the platform operates. You have to apply for as many samples as you possibly can and at the end of a month they distribute samples. You don't get every sample you sign up for. So if you sign up for thirty samples you will receive three. Make sure you do your reviews and they will keep sending you products. Also, they often send out full sizes products not sample sizes.
Tip for consumers:
Sites legit and definitely worth using.

I used to get samples from this site quite often and I always left reviews. Now, I am lucky to even be able to log in in on their sample days and when I do don't qulaify for anything. I. logged in today and saw several samples available to me. As I went to claim them, they disappeared and in was told I don't qualify for anything. Really, pinchme? What happened to the samples I just put in my cart? This happens to me most of the time now. I'm about done with their BS.
I got my first offer today. It said that if I downloaded an app and used it for a week, I would receive a survey about my experience with the app. After completing the survey, I would receive a $100 Amazon gift card. The problem is that their link to download and register the app is broken. This is a waste of time.
First 3 times I did surveys to get boxes I had earned came every 3 weeks now it's been a month I haven't received my other 2 boxes I have talked to them online about it through email all they said was we don't have the tracking information to give you any they said they sent it just wait 3 weeks and you can get your boxes and give your review and sometimes items are shipped separately if it dont come come dont worry about doing the reviews online not really helpful i just dont think they will ever send something valuable if your approved for something another thing i noticed they dropped coins and it's takes me almost a month to get hardly ever approved for anything like before i will just delete my account once this box is filled ill doubt ill ever get the last couple boxes i earned

I have been with pinchme since they first started many years ago! I love how pinchme has expanded to better products to test!. Pinchme is real and I'm a very satisfied pincher! If it weren't for pinchme I wouldn't be exposed to products I didn't know I liked!

I love pinchme. Com, I love receiving samples from Pinchme. They have the best samples. I have also received magazines at no cost from Pinchme This is the best site to get free samples. If you don't get any right away keep trying.
I joined a few months ago, they tell you to pick up to five well everything was gone but 5 items. So i picked the 5. It took so long to come in i forgot about it (nearly a month). One of the items i did like but its expensive in the store, i thought great i will buy it they sent a coupon, but when i checked the coupon it was expired. Then when i went to do the reviews it took over a month before it confirmed i got the items so i could do the reviews. Then when i finished that it gave a date for new stuff nearly 3 months after picking the first items but that day came and it said i didn't qualify for items and ever sense its either out or i don't qualify. Buttttttttttt they have partner offers i can try while i wait. Pinchme is a scam site to make you sign up for other sites like credit cards and other sites that want your credit card #'s.
Its loads of fun you build points from surveys to free stuff. Plus you get to test products goods and services. Write a review and thats it. I love getting free stuff. Who wouldn't? And heck if its fun to recieve rewards for your thoughts and you feel valued for your opinions why NOT?!? What's to lose?
Tip for consumers:
Great for grand parents or unemployed or retired people with time on their hands.

I used to check pinchme once a month to try new products (small samples by the way) No big deal just log in a maybe grab 2 or 3. Then they changed it where you have to use QwizME to get qualified for sample boxes. Well I thought it could be a neat idea, I was wrong I spent days taking surveys, I mean days and hours I will never get back. I made it to just over 1000 points for the deluxe box, well when it came it only had like 4 band aids, 6 ricolas, a tiny deodorant, a scrub sponge, a hair mask single sample pack and a quinioa side dish, that guess what I already got free to sample at Walmart... I would say do not waste your time it will take 100 hours to get 3.00 worth of stuff. You can also get the same freebies elsewhere without it taking 400 hours of surveys. Yes they will also disqualify you after your are 45 mins in so I will no longer be using this site. I have also emailed them about the issues with the surveys and they do not care/will not help.
I enjoy receiving tum and zzzQuil nighttime sleep-aid. It really work for me I was able to fall asleep easy and stay asleep. Thank you guys a lot. I love little sample I got it for sure make want to buy big bottle and more sleep-aid pills.
Oh my goodness Id like to pinch them. This site needs help. I qualify for samples all the time but have only recived a few. Id like to choke them, they make you jump through hoops to get samples. Plus it takes forever to get it. Sits at Post Office too way too long. Hey Pinchme.com, customers are complaing. I give you and F on your site. I log in and get nothing is not right. I log in on time and cant get the samples. Why? You are a bunch of noodle heads sitting around doing nothing.! Oh If i could help you I would. Your site stinks.! Do your customers right.!
What got me to quit pinchme was a couple of surveys. Took almost 30 minutes to answer all the questions on the product (where buy, when how etc). Just as it was about to end it said I do not qualify. WHAT! I took the whole darn survey and then they did not want to award the points. I complained 2ce to pinchme. They gave me a standard general answer. They will NEVER award points if the survey company did not pay them and that is all they will do. I understand I do not qualify for all the surveys but not when it takes 30 minutes. They do not support their survey takers at all it seems. They just want their fees. And lately their sample boxes have gotten less and less products.
I gave this product 4 stars because it is so easy to use. There was no harsh smell and a breeze to mix and apply. I colored my whole head at once since I haven't colored in about 4 to 5 months and left color in my hair the full length of time.
My only negative comment is that the color "Dark Blond" colored my nearly white hair to a reddish darker brown... not a blond color. I wasn't expecting this and hope it will wash out to the lighter color I was expecting after a few washings. Many of the hair coloring products give a darker than expected color, but this was a very dark brown result. I will buy this product again but not leave it on my hair for the full amount of time and I will buy the "ash" blond color the next time to eliminate any red highlights.
I received a PINCHEme samples box that had a "TAHITIAN COCONUT VANILLA CANDLE " made by Sephora, I almost immediately fell in love with the smell of the candle. This candle smells really good. The smell isn't overly powerful. There is a lingering smell throughout my living room even after I blow it out. I have not bought the candle yet only because I am having problems with my car. But as soon as I am able to get to the mall I will be purchasing the TAHITIAN COCONUT VANILLA CANDLE.
Tip for consumers:
Thank you PINCHme for sending me the free sample. Because of PINCHme sending out Great everyday products free, I was able to sample the wonderful smelling candle TAHITIAN COCONUT VANILLA CANDLE from SEPHORA VOLUSPA.
Great product by Sephora. Thank you PINCHEme

I used to like it too. When I try to login, it says sorry campaign over or something to that nature. I also do not like that you have to login right at 12:00pm or a little after to attempt to get samples. BzzAgent, in my opinion is better and smiley360 is okay too.
OMG i can not believe that i have my first pinch me box. I love all samples that I got. It's easy to sign up and all you have to do is wait your box and then write a review. Don't wait go and sign in i promise you'll love it. And just one big thank you. THANK YOU PINCHme!
#pinchme review holy s#*×! I actually got something from pinch me! Pinch me PLEASE! I've thought for the longest time I wouldn't get anything from this site! I felt like I was jumping through the highest and smallest hoops to even be able to get through to even qualify for anything! Am I still dreaming? I understand some ppl will always get their free stuff and that's it. I say put the instructions in when you send out the freebee and more often than not ppl will leave their feedback vs. if you just send stuff out. Whatever! I am an honest person. Send out a free sample to me, with instructions, and I'll give you my most honest opinion. And if there's a few, I'll definitely spread them around and get their opinions and fill that in where the blank is for that too.

Don't do the quizme surveys for points because I have had nothing but trouble. You get all the way to the end with the survey and they tell you you don't qualify. They have your info and you get no points. I'm done. I'm not falling for that again.
I signed up because I like getting free samples, I signed up and filled out the questionnaire and I kid you not, for the months I had the account I never got one single sample! This site is a $#*!ing scam! It'll send samples to youtubers, but I promise you won't receive a single thing, no matter what answers to put in the survey. I fixed mine numerous times and I never got a single sample. Scam artists! Don't waste your time!
What a hit! This flavor of the Twistrd Ranch series of dressings was a wild hit with us. A hit of Ranch, a bite of black pepper, and the awesome, unique absolutely nutty contribution of parmesan work so very well together! It's wonderful on salad, without completely masking the crisp veggies. I'm looking foward to trying it as a marinade with my chicken before breading and in my baked potatoes! I am going to look on line to find other ideas! Thank you, PINCHMe, for gifting me with a coupon to bring this line of dressings to my attention. I want to try the other 4 twisted flavors as well!
They are slow about shipping but if your order has been placed, they will get to it eventually. You can't just say that it's a scam because they ship late and sometimes you might not qualify for the samples. Also make sure to check your account for updates. They put samples up on tuesdays. I have recieved like 4 pinch me boxes and I have been waiting on tgis box with gum, sleeping pills, and biore skin treatment. I imagine they will ship in the next week making my wait about a month. 6-8 weeks is a good measurement of when to expect your box. You could always ignore their emails unless you are looking for a certain email from them (password reset) Don't bother eith the site's partners or offers. I also hate the wsy they hold giveaways. However the samples that you do get or legitimate products that are useful so long as you didn't lie on your surveys.
Complete seven surveys and try everyday for five days and receive a Pinchme box with $10 worth of samples as a reward. Don't waste your time on Quizme to win a Pinchme box. I won two. Between the two of them there might have been $4 worth of samples. I expected $10 worth of samples in my Pinchme box sent as a reward for my effort in Quizme and got scammed. I closed my account with Pinchme.
