Sircle Samples

[channelzero]

I can't get the website to load now, either. But my samples came today! I got the grab bag for lips and two of the napoleon perdis lip glosses. The weird thing is the Jouer lip gloss...it's birchbox pink!

Wow, they had grab bags at some point? Jealousssss

 

[HelloLeilani]

I wanted the lips and/or nails grab bag soooo bad but they were slow with refunding my coins and I didn't have enough. *sad panda facey*

Oh well though, no real complaints about a free sampling service! So far, I love it!

They had lip and nail ones that I saw, but I was too slow for the nail one!

What a awesome grab bag! My mom got the silver essie lux effects in her nail grab bag. Love this site

Here is what I have gotten so far. They are the nail grab bag and stretch mark cream. The stretch mark cream was only half full. I am also waiting on the nail polish and Lip Gloss.

Wow I've only been able to grab one sample and I have over 3,000 points. Leave some for us lol

I ordered one of the Napoleon Perdis lip glosses. It might end up as trade fodder, but that's cool, too. I have a trillion lip products that I love.

Wow. I got the skin care sample gift bag. Two really dinky samples that you could get for free anywhere. Lame. I believe it was also 600 points.

But it was free so...?

Not really. She had to devote time to the surveys and filling out stuff on the website. Her time is worth money. I started filling stuff out on Sircle, but I am afraid that this might be one of those diminishing returns gimmicks- they get you hooked with quick and easy gratification then it starts to take more and more time to get less. I am wondering what the benefits to the companies are compared to sample boxes.

Really? Surveys are like 3 questions and take under 30 seconds to fill out If I understand your question correctly, the company gets your contact information and a possible customer/lifetime customer.

Potential customers...you are now someone they can target advertising towards, and someone who will possibly like the product and buy a full size. Same as sample boxes. 

And the surveys I took were what...3 questions? If 30 seconds of time is worth that much to someone, then I presume they wouldn't spend it posting about how much they didn't like sircle samples on an internet forum.

The last few days I haven't been able to log in /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />! I have coins to spend!

 

[nelliebelle1197]

I guess I have been burned by these sort of things. Time vortex and crappy stuff after initial good stuff. Does that make sense?

I am probably also trying to talk myself out of doing it /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm just saying, compared to the headbands, brushes, nail bag, and lip glosses (which at one point were half the "price" of the skin care bag), the skin care bag was indeed lame. I don't even think I can get one use out of either. Free or not, if a company wants to use samples to lure in new customers in the way sirclesamples is set up, they shouldn't skimp, IMO. Especially when partnering with a service like sirclesamples.

I should have picked more wisely.

Ugh, I really wish it would let me review my items, so I can get more stuff!! Lol.

 

[nelliebelle1197]

Okay, I gave in. ARGHHH! I have filled out one survey (it is all I was offered). I WANT MORE POINTS!

 

[wadedl]

It finally let me do a review today.
