Has anyone seen the "July Plus Two Sample Pack" in the Birchbox shop? I am intrigued. What do you girls (and guys) think?

Here is the description:

Birchbox Breakdown We know you love receiving your monthly Birchbox and the fun of diving into a collection of surprise samples. But we’ve also heard that you'd like a little more choice. This month we’re testing out a way to give you the chance to try more than what arrives in your delivery. The Plus Two Pack is a low-risk opportunity to sample other July products that intrigue you.
  How it Works Choose pairs of two samples that were included in July’s Birchboxes by selecting from the drop down menu above. Each set costs $10, or is complimentary if purchased with any full-size product from the July box category. Valid carts will have a $10 discount applied automatically - no code necessary. Promotion is only valid for one free Sample Pack per order. Sampling with the Plus Two Pack does not exclude these products from arriving in your future monthly boxes

The ones available as of now are:

I'm a little confused..Is this to add to the August box coming up? Is it $10 for 2 samples (that would be way too much)?

How do you get extra to sample for the August box? Ok I hope they explain this better or I am just to tired to understand...
 
You buy something from the July box and they add the two pack of samples (that you can choose from) for free when you click on that item in the shop!

Then what is the $10 for? Is that just if you want to order only the samples?

 
Yes, if you don't want to buy anything from the July shop, they'll send you two of the samples for $10.  Of course if they're free with purchase, you'll at least buy some snacks like I did.
