    Anyone else having issues logging in?

    • sAVANNAH

    • Sonya

      It was slow as dirt but I was finally able to login and score 5 samples. It’s a personal best!!!!

  2. Suzy

    Yes maybe because it is not 12 PM EST????

    • EG

      Last time I logged in before 12pm and had no issues. I don’t know.

      • Sarah

        I could still log in before noon, you can log in anytime.

  3. Heather

    Yes – have been having trouble for over 20 min now. Seems to be a common problem according to PinchMe’s FB page… Bummer…

  4. Hannah

    1st time i’ve had this much trouble, but yes, having major login issues. i know this is common on sample day though.

  5. Arla

  9. MJS

    Can’t even get to the login page or it goes to Bad Gateway

    • EG

      Same

  10. Holly

    Took forever, but I got 5 items today!

    • Cindy V.

      Like you Holly, took me forever. I kept logging back in to add items. Got 4. I’m happy!

  11. Barb

    Again, no product offers for me, just the offer to enter a contest or print a coupon for South Beach bars :-((

    • Doreen

      You are not alone.

  12. Stacy

    Can’t log in. Getting an error. 🙁

  15. Nicky

    bad gateway…I was able to select a few samples, now it’s saying they are unavailable bummber

  16. julie

    Got 4 samples, thanks

  17. Melissa

    Site is crashed, don’t know if it’s worth it anymore 😢

  18. maddison

    I had 5 items in my cart then it booted me out now I can’t get back in. I wonder if they stay in my cart and I can get them later?

    • melloddie

      I saw that there was a timer (20:00) when you put an item in your box

    • Ashley57

      They stay in your cart for 20 minutes, so you may want to keep trying.

  19. rosana

    I have 7 samples but when trying to add to cart it tells me there is a problem and wont let me add now several items are gone.

    • maria

      me too rosana, exact same thing, with ‘watch out’ error…. so very frustrating….

      • LWhat

        I got the same thing but I when I added something different to my cart, the one that said there was a problem was in my cart.

  20. Abigail

    I was logged in right at start time, but everytime I would add something to my box it would disappear, even after it said it was added. Oh well, you win some you lose some!

  21. Angie

    I logged on had difficulty adding anything to my cart timed out to Bad Gateway so I opened a second tab and went to site no hesitation and everything I tried to add earlier was in my cart.

  22. MJS

    I actually got in and logged in. Never saw any samples and eventually got kicked out and the bad gateway problem again 🙁

  23. linda

    Thanks a bunch, Collin. You made my day. Got a few… Can’t wait to try ’em

  24. Alison

    I got the eye cream, nail polish, Garnier, American Crew, Sabor coupon, and Tom’s of Maine deodorant.

  25. Ashley57

    I have 7 samples available, if I can only get them all in my box!

  26. EG

    Still struggling just to sign in via FB. *sigh*

  27. Becca C.

    Can I ask what 7 samples there are? I was only able to get 3.

    • Ashley57

      1X GARNIER FRUCTIS MARVELOUS OIL 5-ACTION HAIR ELIXIR (said I would get all three samples for having one in my cart)

      1X TOM’S OF MAINE LONG LASTING DEODORANT WILD LAVENDER

      1X BUEN SABOR: HEALTHY & JOYFUL LATIN FOOD

      1X AMERICAN CREW POWER CLEANSER STYLE REMOVER

      1X VBEAUTÉ – EYE NEVER® / UNDERCOVER AGENT® / BUYING TIME®

      1X SINFUL COLORS NAIL POLISH

      1X GEVALIA GROUND COFFEE (MAKES 4 CUPS)

      • mel

        I never even had the Tom’s, Buen Sabor & VBeaute offers! But I got everything else!

      • lyn96

        Didn’t see the VBEAUTE eye cream or the Buen Sabor, I did see another south beach sample but it was already gone.
        This was my best box ever.Got 5 of them although it took a while and had some issues.Last month I got the nail polish but that was all since before Christmas. I look at it like a game. 🙂

  28. Brooke

    Page frozen, wouldn’t add samples to my cart, bad gateway. I’ve never had this much trouble! Bad day for PinchMe! Boo!!

  29. cecilia

    is this web site always this busy? I am never home at 12. Today I am off… I cant seam to get in

    • Ashley57

      It is normally about this busy, yes

    • EG

      No. They went on The Today Show to promote the samples. So now millions of extra people are trying to log in,

    • lyn96

      Yes it is always busy. Lot’s of issues logging in and such every month you will see pretty much the same issues as today.

  30. Sally

    I used to have problems but I have been logging in a few minutes before the samples go live. Then I just refresh the page and my samples pop up. Took awhile to order but I got 5 samples.

  31. Dawn

    I had 7 spots available also and was able to add American Crew, Tom’s deodorant, Sinful Colors nail polish, one Garnier product, and Gevalia coffee! So grateful and looking forward to receiving my samples! Thanks PinchMe and Collin! 😃

    • Danielle

      I had the same. This is the most I’ve ever gotten. 🙂

  32. Nicky

    Finally went thru…can only choose 1 garnier product 🙁

  33. laura

    I had Sinful Colors nail polish, the J Crew product, a couple Garnier hair products and Gevalia coffee available and surprisingly I was able to add four products after trying over and over when given the “there was a problem adding this to your cart” messages. I’ve only been able to get one product in the past from them so I’m stoked!

  34. Stephanie S.

    I was able to get all 7 samples when i tried it on my phone. When i tried to use Chrome on my PC, it was nothing but bad gateway errors and then errors loading things to my box. Try the mobile site if you haven’t had any luck.

  35. Katie

    Took a while, but got through, got mine! I’d click and it didn’t seem like it added/loaded, but then it would show up a minute later. ???

  36. Lindy

    Took about 15 minutes to get 6 items (got the deodorant!) in my box (probably because it was on the Today Show with Kathie Lee & Hoda), but I GOT them!

  37. EG

    Are the people getting samples using FB to log in or just email?

    • Dawn

      I just used my email.

  38. maria

    i am so frustrated… i hope they get the technical kinks worked out next time with the influx of today show people… glad some folks here got some samples at least!

  39. Migdalia

    Even w all the issues, I was able to order 4 out of the 7 offered:garnier fructis marvelous oil, tom’s deodorant, american crew, and sinful nail polish.Really wanted to add the shampoo but was giving me issues so gave up.Passed on the coffee and the other one.I’m happy

  40. angelahoang12

    I still haven’t received the last set of samples. They keep sending emails saying the shipment is delayed.

    • LWhat

      Same here. Starting to wonder if it will ever get here.

  41. Cathy M. in Pa.

    I was able to get 7 samples. FYI: If you added one of the Garnier products, it automatically added all of them, that is the pop up box I got. Site was slow but I was able to order all 7.

  42. Lee

    Off the SUBJECT, but I guess there isn’t a choice now for the Mars Movie. You can’t get the Master Card, only the $6 cable credit. I won twice, but I don’t have cable. Is anyone willing to trade anything for the now $12 credit???

    • Ashley57

      I don’t have cable either, but I applied it to my internet which is through a company that also has cable. I hope that works. What are you ISO? I could trade Kelloggs codes or something. sassysaver57@gmail.com

      • aussielloyd

        Ashley, Great idea!!! I will try it out!! We do have internet which is through a company that also has cable. I never thought you could do that! You are so SMART!!! Fingers crossed it works!! Thanks again, I really appreciate it!!!

        • Ashley57

          No problem!! Glad it (hopefully) helped someone. We will see if the credit shows up on our billing cycle 🙂

    • Ash

      I have treat $20 credit and shutterfly book credit. If you want to trade email me at ashumr23@gmail.com

      • Ashley57

        Sent you an email 🙂

  43. Ashley

    I was able to login but when i added my samples it booted me out and won’t let me back in. Keep getting bad gateway.

  44. danica

    it can’t validate my address…have all the things in my box but one minute left before it cancels out…and i’ve tried entering various addresses. super lame.

  45. Lindsay

    it will let me it add it and that I still have room in my box, but won’t let me check out? HELP my time is ticking 🙁

  46. Jennifer

    I can’t even log in via Facebook. Here is what they posted on their Facebook page:
    Hey PINCHers, we are currently experiencing technical difficulties due to high demand. Please be patient as we are working hard to fix the problem for you! Hang in there, you’ll be able to log in soon!

  47. Sarah mcfadyen

    I was able to get 5 samples as well! Got numerous errors, but perseverance paid off! Thanks Colin!

  48. mel

    Thanks! I got the Sinful Nail Polish, Garnier, Gevalia and American Crew samples. There was a South Beach offer, but it was sold out by time I got the other samples added to my box. Never had the Tom’s of Maine offer.

  49. Shanshan

    I never knew what color is the nail polish I ordered. I would think if they really want people to try it out, at least explain which color is what. “Feeling great”? “Eva so Bright”? LOL!

    • mel

      There is a way. Off to the left before adding the color to your box, you can scroll through the thingy on the left. The last page is a sample dot of each color.

    • Ashley57

      If you click on the photo slide show to the right, the fourth photo shows all the names and colors matched together

    • Candice

      There is a picture on the nail polish sample page that shows all the colors and their names so you can pick.

    • Anna

      There was a picture on the left, may have been a picture of a bottle of polish. If you scroll through the pictures, the fourth gives a list of the six colors with a dot to show the color.

    • Shanshan

      Oh okay thanks all! Will keep that in mind if offered again.

  50. Brenda H

    After what seemed like forever I was finally able to get my box. And just as an FYI I had to turn my iPhone to landscape view to be able to see the send button. But thanks again Colin and team for all your wonderful work.
