    Yes i joined 9 months ago and have been offered a total of 40 trials. 6 of which were for my oh and 1 for my daughter. I have tonight just filled in a questionnarre for a product i have just finished sampling that was brilliant. As some others have said though you do have to be quick on most of them. Its a good idea to keep your profile up to date too so you have more chance of offers. Definately worth signing up for.

    I joined this site over 2 year's ago and have tested a few items - shampoo and conditioner + sanitary towels and have a good rating. I used to get regular reminders to update profile by email but never do now. I have just visited the site to make sure my profile isn't missing anything and 'lifestyle' was flashing. I have updated but it is still flashing and it is definetely complete. Just wondered if that could be why I have not received any for a while.

    I was invited a year ago for a trial but were all booked up as soon as I got into the site.

    I have quite a lot of sections completed - ie buy lots of products from various sources. Wonder if the more you buy (say from different sources) the more likely you will get picked for a trial.
