Birchbox August 2013

[tasertag]

I got one of my boxes today! The last thing I expected in my mailbox today.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

My Lipstick came in the color Dusk til Dawn. Kind of a brownish color.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

So early!

My 2nd acct has a box weigh of .5750 due to arrive on Aug 12th. No shipping invoice from my 1st acct. yet.

Woot!  Clicky truck is active with shipping information!

My box is expected to deliver on August 12th and weights 0.5700.

When I click on the tracking number it goes to ups website with no info. Is this typical? I thought the boxes shipped usps?

 

[Xiang]

Can't wait to see all the box contents!! I think I usually get my clicky trucks 2-3 days after the first group receive their boxes so I'm not expecting shipping info for a few days... but I keep checking anyways.

Completely standard. These are shipped using a combination of UPS and USPS. UPS to the main USPS hub closest to you (which is usually much further away than you would expect), final delivery via USPS.

Yes that is normal. It usually takes 48 hrs to update

Enabler alert...well if you NEED a deal....here's one I got yesterday that I'm pretty excited about. BeautySage has a one time purchase for an editors pick box. It's 10 with free shipping and with the promo code PJXBLEE you get 11% off to make it $8.90. 5 products that you can see online. One of them is the Shea terra black soap folks have been raving about. So I'm pretty pumped. Happy shopping Cookie!

Is there a link for that box? The only box I see is the Safe Sun box. I wonder if it sold out already. :-(

Tracking is updated and has a scheduled delivery date of 8/12 but I typically receive it 2-3 days earlier. So ridiculous how long it takes me to get my BB when their warehouse is literally 2 towns over. :WAH!!

Weight is .505

I also tried to find it on the website as well and I think it sold out.  Not that I need another beauty box since I'm on a no-buy this month.

Woo hoo, my second account has shipped!  I didn't look at the weight because I want to be surprised, and I can never resist clicking on spoilers and seeing what people get!  At least this way it will be harder to figure out which box I'm getting. 

Hoping not to get shipment info yet on my main account... no dupe box, please BB gods!!

Thanks!!

I have a clicky truck on my main account!  Box weight of .5050 and scheduled for delivery August 12.  I'm going to TRY to avoid spoilers this month so I'll be surprised when it gets here....

 

[tasertag]

0.575 for me! I think my boxes have consistently been around that weight lately. Haven't been disappointed yet.

 

[AshJs3]

Still nothing for me. I think I might have messed up my second sub. It was always one of the first boxes to ship, then last month I didn't renew it until the middle of the month. Sadness.

 

[Moonittude]

Mine's been mailed. .43 I love the box posted upthread. I ould love to get it, but I got the lipstick last month in the really pale color. That reminds me, I need to make a birchbox trade thread. Where are the bb trade posts?

Yep, it's gone. I got the Safe Sun box and was thinking of getting the other one. While I was looking around it sold out.

Edited to add: Boxes are 404-ing for 57 variations so far! 

I just checked out of curiosity... the pages are 404-ing up to 65 right now!! Sixty-five variations?! I wish I could add smileys on my phone because I would totally add the one with his jaw dropping.. That's crazy!

[AshJs3]

Ha! Gripe and ye shall receive! My main box account just shipped!

I promise I wasn't just sitting and refreshing the page over and over!
