THEN the inevitable happens.....everyone spends the next few weeks complaining about what they got or what they didn't get.  Sending e-mails to BB complaining about whatever is on our minds, only to get one of those cheerful, yet sneer replies that basically just shuts us up until the next month.
lol this is funny! We are always excited then when it comes we complain until next month

This is so true.

 
Just curious, has anyone found the links to redirect to different box variations yet? I know last month it was literally two days to the day before, so I'm sure it's not likely to happen just yet...

I noticed the same thing on my account. I'm trying to look at it as a positive, they wanted to make sure it shipped before they put the number up, or they are just trying to fix something that may have gone wrong instead of letting it go, or even it's just a little computer glitch. It's still early in the month, so I will sit and wait patiently to see what happens

I"m sure whatever it is, it's no big deal or anything to worry about.

I checked, but it redirects to the main page. Here is the link, though. I'm going to try again tomorrow. 

 
I, like many others have a tracking notice that does not update.  I got the Goop email but did not opt in or out after the Teen Vogue debacle. Will be interesting to see if I get a goop box or not, since it seems like the goop boxes are in the 1st "wave."  

Although maybe the fact that my tracking has not updated is proof I did not get goop.  Will be interesting to see what I get!  I have subscribed for 9 months and have a lot of things I should not get but lots of things I did not get so I am excited to see what's in store!

 
it looks like mine should be here tomorrow or tuesday. i opted in for goop, i figured what the hell? i am disappointed by the weight, .4320. i don't want a "pink thingy" because i use my brushes for that. i a glad i decided to go back to ipsy, this months bag looks pretty good:)

Yep, for sure.

I use that thing to soften up my brush application and smooth everything out. They really do work well. If you get one, you might be pleasantly surprised by it. Or you can hit the trade threads; lots of members like them.

I opted in and my box weighs 0.5640. I will be super happy if I get a beauty blender. Hopefully they update our boxes soon the suspense is killing me!! hehe
my box weight is the same. but i didn't choose which box i wanted. i kinda wanted it to be random. this month's boxes have been a bit skimpy though if you ask me : (

Choosing expired Sept 30. I never knew this option not until I saw their spoilers. ANybody here who did not choose but got the goop box?

My box has the exact same weight so i'm positive we are getting the same thing. When is yours scheduled to arrive?

We probably do! Mine is supposedly to arrive on the 11th, what about you?

 
My tracking is updated; weight is .4680 and should be here Thursday; but last month came 2 days early.    I opted in for the goop box; so we will see.
