How long is the subscription for? I'm guessing it's just a subscription code thing that comes in the box.

I swore I saw someone say 12 week but I might be totally off on that.

I received my email for US weekly and it was for 12 weeks.

My truck is clicky!  Can't wait to see my box tomorrow.

 

[camel11]

Two out of three tracking numbers!!

 

[SOSRedAlertSOS]

Still nothing... Gah, I never have good luck with birchbox.

 

[MissJexie]

2 trucks...one clicky, one not. GAHHHH give me my boxes already!!

 

[misslaurelann]

Both of my trucks are now clicky!! Yay! Got one shipping email and one just happened to show up. No info/weight on either though /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm not as excited about the smashbox palate now that I know it's a cardboard. But the rest of the box is great!
Thank you for posting it! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> But oh man, haha. I was hoping not to get the Ruby Wing nail polish because I got it on my second sub last month. XD

 

[caseybean025]

Yay clicky truck! No info yet though. :-(

 

[goldendarter]

One clicky (at .4580) and another non-clicky. So glad they probably won't be dupes!

Hey ladies!! I'm new to BB and was wondering when do we know what we're getting in our BB?

They update the box pages tomorrow!

 

[ikecarus]

I'm seriously dying to find out what are in my two boxes this month even though I only have to wait until tomorrow now. XD It's too bad the app trick no longer works!!

 

[easybreezy]

One downside to this strategy is that you might receive duplicate items, whereas you shouldn't be receiving dupes on the subscription or month-to-month plans.

Is this true? I thought you were guaranteed not to receive duplicate samples on one account, no matter if your subscription has been continuous?

 

[leahleann]

My box weight was 0.043.

 

[Spiritwind10]

Mine is .41. Not much in there???cardboard and cardboard????

Ohhh okay, the $1 is bc you get 10 points for signing up. So I reread @Kyuu post and I see where I thought she was deducting $5 and $1, she was actually explaining how she arrived at the $6 credit. I still don't get the tax thing but no biggie.. But I have been subscribing to BB for 6 months now and I'll be bummed if there is a bonus I've missed out on.. I need to know what this is! Thanks for your help

From their site

Quote: Are there any hidden fees? Nope—all you pay is your subscription fee. There are no shipping or handling fees for the monthly Birchbox. Please note that in NY, NJ, MA and VA sales tax may apply.

So I'd imagine @Kyuu lives some place that is subject to a sales tax on the box.


I live in VA and I have to pay $0.63 tax on my second box but my original sub is still tax free. I was really confused when I first subbed to my second account. Not sure why I don't have to pay it on the original sub but I'm not complaining! lol

hmmm maybe your first account is grandfathered in from before they started taxing VA?

Are the birchboxes going to be updated at midnight?
