if a new code comes out for birchbox for let's say 20% off can you use that on your account that you used a discount code on when first signed up? like if i used mobile20 will i be able to use another one next month if they have one?

popsugar does not allow that, i only know PS!

thanks!

takeoff20 just worked for me.  Unfortunately, I thought it had applied my 200 points, but my order confirmation says it didn't.  Instead of $8.00, I just paid $28.00.  I gotta wait 'til I get off work and call Birchbox CS.

 
FYI for anyone thinking of canceling and resubscribing.  I just went through about the last 10 codes for 100 extra points with a sub listed in this thread and could only get the following two to work:

BBJETBLUE

BBSTORE100

One of those, I hadn't yet used on one of my accounts, so I canceled and resubbed that one (so I know they haven't discontinued the option to cancel and resub with a code).  My other account, I can't use either of those because I've tried them both already.  Hopefully they come out with a new code soon.  I avoid most social media so there definitely could have been something posted on Facebook, etc., that I missed.

 
Unfortunately ACE200 only works once; I was trying to use it for additional gifts and it didn't work.
I'm kind of tempted by this one.  If I am just going to gift myself a 3 month (THIRD) sub, would you recommend classic, trendy, or customer favorites for the first box?  Anyone know what is in any of those?

Yes, I had no idea so I just picked trendy since it mentioned up-and-coming brands and I generally like that. 

 
Can you gift to someone that already has a sub? If so will they get two boxes or will the gift be added to the end of their sub?

 
Hmmm that's tempting, but I'll have to pass. 

Assuming there's a 100 point code every month, you get 110 points per month for signing up and then we can assume that you will get 5 samples per month (to be conservative), which means you get 50 points per month from samples. So adding that together is 160 points per month. Times that by three (for three months) and you'll have 480 points.

110 points (signing up + 100 pt code)

50 points (5 sample reviews)

= 160 points/month

160 points/month * 3 months = 480 points total

Whereas with this code... 

You get 200 points immediately, but then assuming the same 5 samples/month (again, being conservative), you'll get 50 points a month and that's 150 from sample reviews in your three month gift subscription. The total for this option is 350 points. 

200 points (promo code)

50 points/month (for sample reviews) * 3 = 150 points

200 + 150 = 350 points total

EDIT TO ADD... you also get 30 points immediately for spending $30! (thanks @@SneakyBurrito!) So the total for the ACES deal is: 380 points!

Of course, this model only works if there will be new 100 point codes every month. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> (this model also doesn't work if you're being nice and actually gifting a 3 month subscription to a friend, haha)

Also I've never done a gift subscription before so IDK if you can gift it to yourself or not (probably yes) but if not, then your 200 points and 150 points would be on two separate accounts whereas the 480 points would be on one account. Regardless you'd still be spending $30 either way for three months of Birchbox!

(lmk if my math/reasoning is wrong! this is just my own musing hehe)

Sounds like good reasoning to me.  Though it might be 230 points for buying a gift sub, if they give you the 30 points for spending $30, in addition to the extra 200.

The only IF is whether there is going to be a new 100 point code.  I feel like we used to hear about new ones more often.

If I go for this, I'll probably close the third account when the three months are up.  I'll use the 150-180 points for a "ships free" item from that month's box and be done with it.  There's no reason I can't do that plus cancel and resub with a code if I find one that works that I haven't used.

OHHH good point about the extra 30 points for spending $30 on the gift sub. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Totally forgot about that (and that definitely adds more value to this deal)!

I hope we do get more 100 point codes, but I think they're becoming more and more scarce nowadays...
