Birchbox April 2013

[emilyd]

I resubbed last week because the boxes were looking much better. I don't have a clicky truck yet, and I'm really hoping I don't get a punishment box. Does anyone know when those come out? (are they usually shipped first or last?)  Thanks!

Also, Ive been trolling Ingram to see various box variations that have come up so far that have or have not been posted up here yet. Hopefully this satisfies anyone who's curious about the variations that have arrived.

Thanks for posting these! It's a shame they're inflicting that horrifying

shower gel
on some poor unsuspecting people again.

It smells horrible and it doesn't suds up at all. The packaging is nice, so at least it's got that going for it.

Lol. I'm kinda relieved i'm not getting that or the box with the macaroons. I'm sad because I really liked the variation with all the yes to ... products since I already like the face wipes and I really wanted the lippie. Maybe i'll get the cargo blush? fingers crossed for something good. I also have 2 more coming after the one that is coming tmr, so maybe I'll get something good out of one of those?? and no clicky trucks for those yet...

I wish the box variations were up already.  I still have no tracking info.  Do the box variation pages usually always go up on the 10th?

Ugh! MIL problems are the worst. I think it's because the DIL and MIL should be on the same team, and when one of them is undermining the other, it puts the husband/boyfriend in a really difficult position. Unfortunately, mothers are just people, and some people have a really low emotional intelligence, why else would would a MIL make trouble? I think it is jealousy, a lot of times, which is just silly, if you think about it. It's a delicate tight rope act, for the DIL. Good luck, you have my sympathy!

Back OT, I am way too attached to the idea of receiving the

peony nail polish in this month's box. It's only $10, so I guess I could just buy it with free shipping if I don't. For some reason getting it in the box seems so much more exciting.
I think it's funny how things that are cheap are sometimes so much more fun than things that are expensive.

You are definitely right! And On the polish topic, I could buy it with points if I like it! Wooooot!

I then said, "Here you go mom, I didn't want you to have to stand in line for anything, it's way too long and you have bad knees." She felt like a fool and left early saying she was feeling ill. Ha! Kill em' with kindness!

Lmao great story ^^

What a great story! I was raised to handle difficult people that way, and it usually works, but unfortunately it doesn't work on everyone.  I do think it is the best way to start out. Some people are so far gone that if you turn the other cheek, they will just keep slapping. Some people don't know the difference from someone who is being graceful, and someone who is a door mat. I believe in being direct, when necessary. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I just got an email from BB, and I thought it was my box, then I remembered that I ordered from their flash sale. lol

Direct is great XD and you are right about some people not knowing the difference D: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Can I ask....what did you get from their store? heh  curious /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

awww thank you!

Idk I think she has issues, but oh well /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Are you one of the lucky ones with a clicky truck? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm not

I love the smell and think it suds fine. Ya know, before you go insulting products, remember that it is just your opinion.

I'm sorry to be the one with bad news, but they said the Cargo Blush wouldn't be included in this box /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Really? When did this happen? And I had a feeling I wouldn't be lucky enough to get it in my box anyways, so it isn't the biggest deal. I wonder what else they are planning to push in the other variations...

Something about it not coming in on time, or some kind of mishap with it. I don't remember the exact wording....I want to say two weeks or so ago.
