My app will still not show me my box items though and when I log on my laptop, I still cannot see the contents of my box. I'm sure it will update, but this is really amazing that I got my box 2 days after it was shipped. It usually takes 2 weeks. 
I (being impatient) actually emailed Birchbox today and their CS was so nice and fast in helping me with this problem! Literally 5 minutes after I emailed them, they emailed back and I was able to see my box contents online and review them. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yes. I am on the west coast too. I am going to wait a few days and if my box doesn't update online and let me review, I will email them. Ultimately I am soooooo happy with my box contents bc I really wanted the Ruby Wing nail polish and I love Beauty Protector Shampoo and Conditioner but didn't have the leave-in-conditioner yet so YAY!!! Those two products alone and the fact that I didn't get any dupes made a second January box a total win for me. 

I am going to San Diego this weekend for a quick conference and can't wait to throw some of these goodies into my travel bag.

Ah, the 210 points was WAY too good of a deal to pass up, but I didn't really need a 3rd account... So I opened up a new one & then cancelled my 2nd account. 
And then I took my 200 points from the new account & gifted it to my 1st account, because my anniversary code is still good 'til tomorrow! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was only expecting 100 points but the 200 just really made my day! I am now super happy that I subscribed with a second box...yes I have joined the club. LOL

Does anyone know if it's still working? I still can't figure out how to skip the waitlist /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Signed up late last night - re-activated my second BB I created back in Sept for the Ruffian polish.  Got the 200 points and already converted it to 2 $10 gift cards for my main account!   I checked the confirmation email and it says my shipping date is 2/10, so hopefully I've avoided getting a leftover Jan box and will just get Feb!

Y'all are naughty, naughter temptresses... and I can't wait to see what I get in my 2nd box!

I did the same thing! I'm going to cancel the other 2nd sub i signed up for even though I *just* got my Jan box off of there. I'm feeling adventurous and I might not even fill out a profile!

eta: poo birchbox karma! i cancelled my sub but forgot to do my January reviews. Oopsies. "free box" not gonna hurt my feelings too much.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get a welcome discount code after signing up for a new box.  I got one for my first account but didn't have enough points to get anything, and now am waiting for one on my 2nd sub account and would have expected something by now.

You need to use your referral link, which is how I skipped the wl for both extra boxes!

you can buy a gift card with you points and "give it" to yourself!

Gah, I joined the 3 box club just a minute ago...just for the extra 100 points.  Somebody tell me that's okay?  And the extra points somehow turned into 200 points.  So ladies, whatever the heck is going on...is still going on!

 

[chelsealady]

You bad, bad people.   I did cancel my second sub till all the posts with the 210 points came up.  So technically they paid me to get keep my second sub at least for another month.

Wait...so we can cancel our current subs and immediately re-sub with the code and get points??

Is it HORRIBLE that I'm wondering if I can cancel the account I just opened and get another 200 points? 

I'm not going to, because I feel like that's reaaaally taking advantage of the glitch but I can't help but be curious /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 

[camel11]

I'm not convinced it's a glitch -- a friend signed up with my referral link last night, but forgot to enter the code.  She e-mailed CS, and they gave her the 200 points.

I tried it. It worked. I don't feel bad about it considering I hadn't used the code on my main account because I wasn't aware that we'd be able to. Yay for extra points.
