Does BB let you resub and pay using a gift card for that month?
Kinda. I tried this before and it would only work if I was still paying for some part of the order, no matter how little/much. I actually had a partial GC with only like $7.50 on it and it let me use it and pay the rest with my card. I'm pretty sure I had tried to use a full $10 GC and it wouldn't let me because you can't continuously charge a GC every month.
 
So I just had to return some things to BB because of money (ugh, whine, wah, why me?, etc) and I'm super confused at the return amount.  I used a 20% off code and $20 in giftcards for my order, and paid $20.80 on top of that. I returned everything except one $10 item (Soak Hand Cream), but the refund I got was for $19.36. Does that sound right?  Anyone good at math?  Here's a screencap:

did you keep the pick two?

if you did then the $10 discount for it is then added to your total. now its $71

20% off $71= $56.80 for the entire purchase (including full price pick two) after WELCOMEOFFER20 discount.

After discount you are paying $8 for pick2 and $8 for lotion= $16 of product you are keeping.

$56.80-$16=40.80

$40.80- 19.36=21.44  Maybe they're sneaking in accounting for some kind of shipping charge? because as of right now, the Soak hand cream doesn't qualify for free shipping.

Here's a screenshot of the shipping charges. The closest that fits is the "Fast! UPS Next Day Air". I guess they cut you a deal? and only 'charged' you $21.44 for shipping instead of $22, or maybe they made a minor miscalculation?



Returns get tricky, especially with multiple payment methods and discounts.

I returned the Pick Two.. But I think I just figured it out. I added an item to my cart and now I see that I have "store credit" of $13.44, which brings my return amount up to $32.80, which seems to make sense. I didn't even know store credit was a thing, and of course I didn't get an email about it or anything, sheesh!

Thanks for your help!!

the price of the pick is already included in the subtotal, and the 20%off doesn't include the price of the pick two..

Subtotal = $61

      without pick 2 = $51

20% off $51 = 10.20 which plus the $10 from the pick 2= $20.20 which is what was discounted

that leaves the total order price to be $40.80 which adds up since $20 was paid in gift cards and $20.80 in "cash"

20% off $10 = $2 so keeping the hand cream would be $8

$40.80 was the original total, so $32.80 should have been returned

since you paid for 51% of your total in "cash" and 49% in gift cards, they could have prorated it based on that, but that would be $16.72 returned to you in "cash" and it seems like you got more than that.. but you should get a gift card that rounds the total out to $32.80

ETA: and you did! =)

I just brought a $50 gift card using the code letsgo20 and added a pick 2 and used my 400 points for a total of $0..I'm so excited..

Now I can splurge with the next anniversary code (I'm at 22 months now) or save it...the giftcard will be easier to save I think.
Have you received your shipping info for your order? I did the same but haven't heard about mine and starting to wonder.

I placed an order 2 days ago and I just got my shipping info. Seriously... It never takes this long. I ordered Egyptian Magic 4 oz lotion for $38, added a Pick-2, used my 21ANDCOUNTING anniversary code, 200 Points, and a $10 gift card. I paid $0.02. I am most excited about the Pick-2. I have spent this entire Winter trying to find a lotion lotion or cream for my hands because they're so dry compared to years past. The Egyptian Magic is the last one I'm ordering online, and if it doesn't work, I'm going to the L'Occitane store in Omaha. The nearest bus stop is about a mile from the store, so I've been waiting until it warms up to go there.

Yea I'm really glad I got last month's GWP instead of waiting for this one. Not everyone has an iPhone and I wish Birchbox would understand that. *cough* get an app for android already *cough*
