Here is the sample that is half full..

Apothederm Stretch Mark Cream
I am also new here. This is my second box and I got the same product, also half full.  I wasn't thrilled with my other products either, but since BB is still new to me, it is still pretty exciting.

My shipping info finally updated. The weight is .6030. Do I have any box twins yet?

well the box links still haven't been updated so i don't think there is anything to compare to.

maybe it is like the dr jart ones and a small sample in a way too big container. check the net weight to find out !

Was the rest of your box the same as HeatherFeather's?

That's exactly what I was about to say. ; )

I'm not quite sure how to figure out which box number I got.  And I have already sent an email to BB about the half full sample.  I guess It is kind of good that someone else got a half full sample too.  I'm sure that means more people got a sample like that.  Hopefully they send out replacements?  Despite the bad sample, I did get 6 items which is pretty nice.

I'm pretty sure that is just how the apothederm samples are, by weight, not amount. I received one from sirclesamples and it wasn't full. 

 

[HeatherFeather]

Oh okay.  I was kind of hoping it was an error, since I have plenty of stretch marks, and could sure use a full container of the cream

Those of you who got your boxes already, what were the weights?

Yup, exactly the same.  Welcome Box equivalent, maybe?

I just had a thought. If you get the men's cologne... and actually like the smell, maybe you can sew together a little sachet or make a homemade air freshener for the car and dot that on it. Just an idea since I know car air fresheners come in men's cologne fragrances such as Drakkar Noir and Cool Water. If I get it and think it smells pretty good (but not something I'd wear since I'm too girly, lol!), then I may just use it for my car.

I could SO hijack my husband's car for this purpose. I like the Bath and Body Works car fresheners for my own car, but his could use some help. He probably won't even notice, but I will! Great idea!!

 I would love to get those band-aids!

I keep seeing posts about welcome boxes. I got my first Birchbox last month and it was the Gossip Girl box. Is there a welcome box that new subscribers are supposed to receive? 

 

[MyriadVoices]

The last two months I have gotten my shipping notice the same day that I receive the package. Kind of weird, but I kind of like it, because then I'm actually surprised to find it in my mailbox. I get so excited wondering what will be inside! What a nerd I am!

IIRC, the welcome boxes are for gift subscriptions. I never got a welcome box, my first was a regular box.
