So when the plus shop was up I reserved he scarf and the headphones (as noted in an earlier post in this thread), but my confirmation email that came weeks later only noted the scarf. By this time the shop was closed so I emailed them and got a response from Gabby basically saying "sorry we only have one plus item for you but the headphones will be back in the store for you to buy soon". Wtf????? Those were what I was most excited about! And every time I would go back to check the store it would say "reserved" under the headphones. I'm kind of ticked!

My march box shipped already! I guess they sent it early since its a gift sub and they didn't have to bill me. I'll post my contents when it gets here!

My account updated with my contents of my march welcome box on a gift sub. With a gift, I would think they'd want to entice people to continue it with awesome boxes. Not this....the only thing I'm kinda excited for is the lip stain. I needed the sunscreen so that's at least useful. And I already have the beauty protector spray. And Blegh to the other two.

I'd be happy with either of those. I'd be happy with any of the PYS options too (I didn't pick one). This might be a good month for me! Fingers crossed.

no clicky truck yet and no cheat page for my box, and no cheat for box combos yet. anyone else having luck with box combo cheats?

 

[carothcj]

I think we will start getting cheats soon! I have a unlock box graphic on my mobile app, but no samples shown yet

 

[bliss10977]

My BS box already shipped! Woohoo

I keep hearing this talk of cheats, and I'm sure it's been explained multiple times-but what the hell is it? Because for the life of my I can not figure it out.

I keep hearing this talk of cheats, and I'm sure it's been explained multiple times-but what the hell is it? Because for the life of my I can not figure it out.

One of the cheats is that you go into Birchbox and pull up the previous month's box.  Then you change the number in the web address to the current month's number.

For example, my March box should eventually load when I open 'www.birchbox.com/me/boxes/women/2015/3'.  (The last number was a 2 for my February box, so I changed it to a 3 to see the March box.)

I just tried the above cheat.  It did not show my products but the page did change from yesterday.  Today it says March 2015 BB1.  Yesterday it didn't have anything.  Not sure what that means, though.

I hope it doesn't necessarily mean that I am getting box #1 because it shows the same thing for both my accounts.  And I ordered different PYS for each account.

I have a clicky truck for March on one account, but I only get the 'March 2015 BB1' when i try to load the box.
I suspect it will go out first since I added on a plus item to the other account, and that billing just hit the bank yesterday.

Non clicky truck for me-last month I got my box on the 6th.  I hadn't even checked my page to see if it had updated to February when I got it that early.  Mine will probably be late again this month, like usual.

Since people are saying.... I have non-clicky trucks on both my accounts.

I got the clicky one but I got the curated box. 

 

[Jay.Aitch.Gee]

Non-clicky on one sub (no PYS) and that box cheat shows the polka-dot background and March 2015 BB1

curated box sub still shows Feb shipping info, which surprised me, since last month I also picked the curated box and I received it on the 6th or 7th. But then I remembered I did do a march plus add-on with this sub, so that's probably what's holding it up.

This is the first time in months that one sub will be a complete surprise - I'm ridiculously excited!

Both of mine have a plain maroon background.  How very odd!  Or does it indicate something with regard to contents or status?

well, mine is very tiny light pink polka-dots on maroon. I suppose if viewed on a small device it could look solid maroon. Or blue-with-black. Or white-with gold...

Same here.

So, is there no longer a way to just change numbers and see all the box variations for the month like there used to be?

For example, just changing the last number:

https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2014/august-2014-bb1

https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2014/august-2014-bb2

https://www.birchbox.com/shop/birchbox-1/august-2014/august-2014-bb3

Since we hit 2015, I haven't been able to find a way to do this, but then, I haven't been on Makeuptalk either. I really miss looking at all the boxes. Even if it did lead to box envy, turns out that was about half the fun for me. Oh, and I didn't pick a sample this month so I have 2 complete surprise boxes coming. Thanks!

ive been trying to do different things to try the cheat for the box combos and i cant figure it out, they might have completely changed the link
