Free Samples From PINCHme

If you aren’t already acquainted with PINCHme, it’s a great site to snag free samples! PINCHme samples are available one Tuesday each month, usually toward the end of the month.

To get free samples from PINCHme, you need to log on at noon Eastern time and add available samples to your box. Your samples are reserved in your box for 20 minutes. When you’re done adding samples, you can checkout and the free samples will be delivered to you. After trying your samples, you must then log back on to PINCHme and give feedback on them.

I’ve received tons of free samples from PINCHme! My PINCHme samples have included full size nail polish, coffee, Suave hand cream, shampoo and conditioner, and chocolate. My last PINCHme box actually contained seven samples!

It seems, however, that I might be getting pretty lucky when it comes to free samples from PINCHme. The PINCHme Facebook page and comments on blog posts about PINCme are full of people frustrated that they are always unable to snag free samples.

It can be a bit difficult to get these awesome samples, but there are a few things you can do so you snag free samples from PINCHme every time! Well, almost every time.

1. Sign Up Early

If you aren’t already signed up, make sure you create a free PINCHme account well before free samples become available. Make sure you fill out your profile completely, including your address. Your chances of getting free samples from PINCHme drastically decrease if you have to waste time signing up for an account on Freebie Tuesday.

2. Sign In Before Freebie Time

Find out when the next free samples are available from PINCHme and sign in at least a few minutes before noon Eastern time. When noon rolls around, hit the refresh button on your browser to see the available samples. These samples go super quick, so be ready!

3. Act FAST and Be Patient

On Tuesdays when free samples from PINCHme become available, the website gets swamped, so act fast! More often than not, the website servers are unable to handle the load and there will be a serious lag or it may even go down. If the website won’t load or you get an error message, don’t give up on your PINCHme samples! Refresh the page and try again. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get a chance at the samples.

4. Try Again Later

When PINCHme users add free samples to their box, the contents of the box are reserved for 20 minutes. If a person abandons their box, it expires and the free samples are released for others to grab. Sometimes, you can get lucky and snag some of these abandoned samples later in the day.

5. Set Your Alarm

To snag PINCHme samples, you need to know when the samples are available, right? Make sure you periodically check the PINCHme website and be aware of when the next PINCHme samples will be available. If you really want to make sure you snag some free samples from PINCHme, you can set an alarm on your phone or computer.

Just an FYI – the next time free samples from PINCHme will be available is tomorrow, 10/21/14! So, get yourself signed up and get some freebies!
