I've received each brand of tea from Birchbox once, but have never had the same tea brand just different flavors.  I've received Color Club nail polish quite a few times, but always different colors and from different collections. I got the Sumita in black before, but they said on the Sneak Peak video that they're sending out both black and plum.  I love plum eyeliners (they go great with my green/hazel eyes), so I definitely wouldn't be upset if one showed up this month! Still no clicky truck for me :plain:

I would be SO happy if I got a plum liner! Crossing my fingers!

 (but I'm not actually frowning!) They gave me like 200 some points for a razor I bought that was out of stock and automatically took off the extra blades I was going to get with it.  It would have been really silly to send me the extra blades without the actual razor.  They have great CS with the order questions and with issues I have had with orders in the past.  
i accidentally placed an order 3 times ( i was struggling with the app). they canceled the charge for the 2 repeat orders, but they were shipped to me anyways. I emailed them to let them know i was going to mail it back, and they let me keep them! i ended up with 3 orders worth 75 dollars each. they are awesome

 
I saw the boxes posted on Instagram. I've already received all the BP products and the Supergoop CC cream at least twice. I wonder what I will get? I got the Sumita pencil last month I think from BB. hmmmmm.... There has to be some other variations out there. Neither of my boxes has shipped.

Whyyyy do they still not have an Android app? Isn't it just as popular as the iPhone now?

Numbers-wise Android is actually MORE popular than the iPhone.  Not everyone has the exact same model of phone, of course, like they do with the iPhones, but the operating system is on more phones.

I hope it is a good one. My sister is having surgery on the 18th and it would be a great pick for her.

I just saw this too. It's been awhile since I bought a LE Birchbox. I hope I like it. I wasn't enthused about the finds box or the winter one. I've got tons of points to burn! And my birthday is coming in a couple weeks.

You're an awesome sister! When I had surgery last year, I would've absolutely loved for someone to give me a Birchbox, or just a box of goodies in general. I'm sure she'll appreciate it, no matter what it contains.

My understanding is that because the devices differ so much in screen size, buttons, etc that building an android app is much more involved than iPhone/ipad which are much more standardized

I've heard it is the opposite, that because the Android app store is less regulated than the Apple App Store, and iOS is a much more complex language to code in, that Android is easier to code for.

It makes sense that companies would pick only one platform to tackle at a time. Building mobile apps is a huge undertaking!

That makes a lot of sense.  I know that we have (and yes this is slightly embarrassing) five different android tablets (three of them have cracked screens and because of that we gave two of them to my son to play with, and the third I use at my desk as just pretty much a baby monitor for the d-link camera in his room. The other two are my husband's and my same three-year-old-son's. Yes my son has three freaking tablets, it's ridiculous I know.)  The 10-inch one is really old (my son has this one now) and when I go to the app store to add a new game to it for him, a lot of times it will just list the app as being non-compatible with the tablet, same on his newer 7-inch tablet that was really cheap so it doesn't have the best graphics card or processor.  

I think a lot of the developers do that just so they don't have to make 700 different versions of an app.  

 
Here's from the rules of the giveaway for the new limited edition box . I can't remember if this is the price of the box, or the retail value.

Quote: PRIZE/APPROXIMATE RETAIL VALUE (“ARVâ€)/ODDS: One (1) winner will be randomly selected to win the limited edition Birchbox worth $44. Total ARV of Grand Prize to be awarded is: $44. All prize details are at the Sponsor's sole discretion. Odds of winning will depend upon the total number of eligible entries received.

There are two kinds of Kind bars



I find the bigger Healthy Grains kind to be my favorite, the top one is mostly nuts, so more crunchy and less chewy. I think we're getting the bottom one in some of our boxes.

I hope so. I could use some spring. It doesn't seem to be in any hurry to get here this year.

It was 90+ here today, and it will be 95 tomorrow. I wish the rest of the United States would share at least a little bit of cool weather. ;_;

wasn't it when they did the give away for the finds box, it was cheaper than the price listed on the terms of the giveaway? so i think it might be retail value.
