It looks like no one used this code but us. I asked the same question in the January thread to no replies as well. Mine should arrive today or tomorrow. Did you receive your box with the two extra items yet?

I hope Birchbox has a code for annual subscriptions soon! I am itching to commit again (I am out of my second yearly sub now) but I want to wait until it's a good deal.
BBM10BACK is currently working when subscribing to Birchbox Man. 100 points in the shop, kinda like getting the box 1/2 off. The only time I recommend getting BB Man is with 1 of these codes. But check the January samples first because Gilchrist & Soames, Plant Face Oil, and Clean Fragrances ... not everyone's cup of tea ...

Got damn it. I just renewed earlier today to get free socks

Interesting timing with sample choice happening on Tuesday and Wednesday. How long is that one good?

Yeah. If any current subscribers use it, sample choice will get messed up.
On the other hand, sometimes they *say* things will expire and they don't *actually* expire. I still get e-mails about once a week that say "one week only" use TAKEOFF20.

Everyone probably already knows this but in case anyone does not I thought I'd share. I decided to reactivate my second sub using the 10forme code. Since I had been shopping earlier and changed my mind on some items it tried to use my points to pay for my subscription. Because I have sales tax the amount came to 10.80- so the system tried to deduct 200 points. I did not want to call or email about this since I'm probably not supposed to do this anyway. Ultimately I figured out on my own how to fix it.
1. Put something brand new in your cart and force it to walk you through all the prompts.( I used the liptastic kit because I figured if I accidentally bought it, this would be a sign I was meant to have it.)
2. You should be then able to deselect the button where it says use points.
3. Remove item and add women's sub. It should only try to charge your card.
Hopefully the BB gods will not punish me for doing this. What is strange is that this seems to imply you could use points to pay for boxes. I really thought this was not allowed. If I only had 100 points I would have been happy to buy an 80 cent box.

OK guys, help me out. I'm afraid I screwed myself using the code today.
By using the code to get January's box today (100 points + 10 for purchasing) I got to 352 points. So I just have to review my 5 items and I'll have 400, right?
Well... I don't want February's box. How good are my chances the January one I bought will actually upload to where I can review before Feb 1st? If they don't update it, is there any way I can cancel before I get billed again Feb 1st and still somehow review my January items for points? Maybe send my reviews to CS via email and have them manually update?
Ugh, I feel like I used to know the answer, but I received boxes consecutively from Dec 2012-Nov 2014 and never had to worry about this! Halp.

I thought I read somewhere that they were sold out of January boxes, so if that's the case you'll be getting a February box and will have the whole month to do your reviews and cancel.

THANK YOU! Just canceled and re-subscribed. I'm closing in on 1000 points!!!! I don't think it will affect choosing a sample for Feb. And if it does, BB can surprise me for Feb!
Seriously thinking about it on my non-Ace account...
Edit: I actually have three accounts. Ace will pick today, I was going to choose one item on one of the other accounts and was going to leave one to chance. I guess the non-gift-sub/non-Ace account can be canceled and resubbed, though!

I'm annoyed and maybe someone here can help me figure this out....I resubbed for the Jan box on my second account using the code for 2 extra samples on Jan 9th. Using the cheat I was able to see the box I was getting (which was the identical box that I got on my first account and didn't like, so I was rather annoyed). That said, BB still has not shipped the box (no clicky truck, order shows as pending) even though it's been 18 days. The box contents still do not "officially" show on my account and I cannot review the items for points yet.
Because of the sucky identical duplicate box, I took it as a sign from the BB universe that I should just cancel my second account at least for a while, but then there was the new code for 100 pts. good through the second. If I could cancel and resub for a Feb. box for free I would do it, but I do not want to pay for a Feb box on 2 accounts and risk getting a duplicate bad box again (Can't cancel my first sub because it's annual).
At this point, I'm thinking if I cancel, I won't get to review my Jan box for points because they're still not in my account as an option/it hasn't shipped. I'm not sure by when I have to cancel to not get charged for a Feb. box, and I know that I only have until the 2nd to cancel and resub with the code.
Any thoughts? Can I cancel and then still review my Jan box for points when (if) it ever ships? I have contacted CS about the never shipped Jan box but so far no reply.
