I've had several items "processing" since May 6th, it's June 24th! I deleted my account and said my goodbyes, friends and family hyped it up so much, but over a month for a free sample is horrible.... See more

Definitely recommend trying it out!

Sampler is the best place to get free products. I love reviewing products and it's nice because then I don't have to buy a full product and then it not be as good as everyone says. It's nice to get free samples. I would love to keep reviewing.

I was supposed to get two sample boxes…got nothing

I was supposed to get two sample boxes already and haven't received anything. Not one box to date.

Update: Thanks for the replay, but I don't have time to reach out to track down samples that were ordered in November and January.

Great 👍

So it did take like months and months AND months lol for me to receive my samples but when I finally did get them I received 3 small items like just enough to test for about a week each and 2 out of the 3 items I LIVE and have already subscribed to receive both items every 2 weeks and as far as the third item so far so good it's an anti wrinkle cream though so testing it and will decide at end of testing it out when I run out whether or not I want to switch from what I use now to this new one. I 🙏 they send me another sampler soon!!! But hey, who knows? But once tou DO get your sample box in the mail from them it's pretty awesome and great products. 👍

Took about 3.5 months to get my "sample". It was an empty box, with a coupon that was expired by the time I got it. Idk why the post office even brought the trash to my house.

Some stuff is good and I enjoy sampling others are kinda meh and I get confused as to how they are even offered to me. Plus I hate the online ones especially when I’m already subscribed like the hello fresh

Samples 1 a year

I seem to never qualify for samples. Kind of pointless

Hi Daysia,
We know how disappointing it can be to not match with samples, we're sorry to hear you've experienced this! You're matched with offers based on your questionnaire responses so we may not have had samples that are a good fit or we've run out (they often disappear quickly as you can imagine!). If you're not already, opt-in to Sampler marketing updates in your profile to hear about exclusive sample programs you're a match with! We hope you match soon!
