Birchbox October 2012

[dotybird]

I went to the Birchbox website- and saw that my credit card information was not up to date (I got a new one a couple of weeks ago.)  I hope that it doesn't affect me getting the October box.  I don't know why Birchbox didn't send me an email about it?

I don't know why either, but this happened to me last month, and as long as you update your CC by the date they give (the 18th or something) you'll still get your October box. You'll probably get it a few days later than usual though -- my box contents didn't update on the 10th like everyone else's, and I didn't get a tracking number until a couple of days later either.

I just checked my account and it has my October Shipping info updated!!!

No tracking number of course, but I got REALLY excited. I am hoping it's better than last months!

Thank you so much for writing in and I am so sorry that you did not receive the Goop email. It is possible that it went into your spam mail or that you unsubscribed from the email list. Either way, I apologize that you did not receive it. Even if you had received the email and had requested a Goop box, there was no guarantee that you would have received one, as supplies were limited. However, the good news is that both the Goop boxes and the regular boxes are amazing this month /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> and I am sure that you will be happy with the regular box!

If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to give us a call at 877-487-7272 M-F from 9a-5p EST.

So...yeah I guess I am getting a normal Birchbox 

Actually I opted for the Goop box, and I am hoping I get a regular LOL.

Unrelated but everyone likes freebies. Target just announced their final beauty bag. I created a thread for it. ---->https://www.makeuptalk.com/t/129313/last-ever-target-beauty-bag

You got your bag already?

Hey everyone! I got the email yesterday asking me if I wanted to opt in on getting a Goop box. I did opt in, mostly because my last 2 boxes have been so underwhelming. Maybe this will keep me subscribed. If the box stinks as bad as my last two I may very well be taking my $10.00 elsewhere. Am I the only one who feels like Aug. and Sept. boxes were kinda lame compared to all the other boxes this year? Not to knock BB or anything but I kinda feel like they have been off their game lately. Could just be me.

Can't wait to see shipping notices go out!

 

[stellar136]

Lol---- i didn't read up a few posts, i guess it was already mentioned!! I'm excited about those

Not every product in the shop has been in the Birchboxes.  There are a lot that havent been. I could be wrong, but I dont think the Avene Thermal Water has been.  And Birchbox does repeat samples, just not to the same subscriber.

Good to know!  I bought a big can of the Avene last month, to give it a try.  (Had a $5 Amazon Gift Certificate burning a hole in my pocket for about 15 seconds.)  My opinion?  *Shrug*  Eh - it's water in a can.

Loved visiting @birchbox #samplestop! Sign up for their October @goop/ @GwynethPaltrow box to score some of our goodies! #latergram

This makes me super happy, I'm fantasizing about receiving chantecaille just skin tinted moisturizer. My favorite blogger never shuts up about it. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Thanks for the awesome spoiler!

I bought a can of a similar product by Evian, and had the same opinion - a spray can of water.

Oh no!  I got a confirmation # when I signed up, so I must have gotten one of the last ones.

When Target had the summer beauty bags, they ran out quick, but then a couple of weeks later they had another 600,000 available so I was able to get one.  If I see it again, I'll post it ASAP.  Sorry!!

Girls who are updating your credit card info, make sure you stay on top of them about sending you an October box. I updated my info on the 7th of September, and got a confirmation stating my box would be sent out on the 18th. Long story short I never got a confirmation email, and when I emailed them about it they tried to make it seem as if I had paid for October instead of September, and they weren't going to do anything about it. After two more emails I was told there was a glitch in the system, and that was why I did not receive a September box, and that I would be compensated with 100 points. Anywho, moral of the story is, make sure you follow up with them promptly and don't get screwed out of a box.
