We all love free things and the promise of free items can be enticing. PINCHme, a free sample site created in 2013, promises to provide members with a destination to try some of the world's leading brands for free. It may seem too good to be true, but with over 10 million members since its inception, it looks like they are doing something right.
So how do you enjoy these samples? It's simpler than you may think. Members just have to answer a series of questions about their shopping habits and household in a Member Profile. This way, PINCHme can learn what you like and tailor their samples to you and your interests.
Once you receive the samples, you can try them out and let PINCHme know what you think. The brands you sample know you'll tell them your honest opinion and use the feedback to improve their products and marketing. How cool is that?The samples you get through PINCHme include personal care, home and family, food and drink, pets-related items, and much more. What's even better is that the samples come from leading brands like Dyson, Sony, Olay, Estee Lauder, L’Oréal, Urban Decay, Drunk Elephant, Panasonic, Clinique, Lancôme, Maybelline, Too Faced, Fenty Beauty, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Samsung and Smashbox.
The question remains, though, why should you try out these samples? To start off, you can test out new products before you commit to buying them. Try out those trendy new skincare products or an oh-so-good instant coffee and decide if they are worth the investment. And let's not forget about the cost savings of testing before you buy. Another perk of these sample sites is that you get to try a variety of different brands that you may not have heard of and that are beyond your budget.
On top of that, sample sites can also help you stay up to date on the latest trends and products. For example, if a new beauty brand just launched, you’d be able to get your hands on a sample to try before the rest of the market catches on. It can also help you discover new ways to use a product you may already be using.
As great as sample sites are, there are a few things you should know before using them. First, make sure to keep track of when your samples will expire. If you don't use them in time, you'll have been tempted by something that you won't be able to enjoy. Also, it's important to not get too carried away. While free samples may verge into free products, it's best to always only order samples of products you're interested in and not beyond what you'll be able to use.
At the end of the day, PINCHme can help you find the products that best suit you, often without spending a single penny. So, what are you waiting for? Sign up for PINCHme today and unleash your inner tester.
