Like is there a definite pattern? I'm too lazy and in pain (had dental work yesterday) to go look for myself.

My boxes shipped today, one of them has a delivery date of the 10th, but thats tomorrow (Sunday) so I think its an error.  Maybe thats the day UPS hands it off to the post office?

Also, this is off-topic,but Birchbox has this posted on Facebook

My tracking has not updated, so it doesnt show the weight. And the weight has never come in the email for me.  They are all being shipped the same way so that is not an indication of what you will be getting.

I just got my shipping notice. As I thought, I'm not getting the TV box I wanted. I'm not getting ANY TV box, despite Birchbox's Facebook message that those who opted in will get one. It's like throwing a party, sending invitations to everyone you know, then holding a "lottery" at the door to see who gets in and who doesn't. I was really excited about getting a special edition box, and now I'm super disappointed again by Birchbox. I emailed them asking why I'm not getting a TV box, but I don't really care why. I didn't subscribe to be continually disappointed. I will be calling to cancel on Monday. ETA: Just got the email auto reply.

 
I hope it's not a pattern.. My box is .51 and someone that posted the same weight had a brighter Tarte, I want to try Lucky, the light pink one. My box is taking forever.. Went from NJ to MA to MD and looks like the sorting center actually gave to a post office. Yeah... I'm in Utah. :-S

 
I opted in on the TV box, but it looks like I'm getting a regular box instead--which I think I'm happy about, given that all the Essies appear to be glittery (I hate glitter!) and there are three or four things I want in the regular boxes. Anyone get a regular box weighing 0.652 yet?

 
yeah i'm SUPER excited about this, because I was planning on buying the origins face wash from origins.com. I would also love to try the body wash since I can never have enough of those :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 50 extra points is a lot!

Got my regular box today! My TV box will be at work on monday. Did anyone get a color club other than this neon orange?

 I like neon polish and I like orange polish but I don't know how I feel about the two combined.

 A little sad that I didn't get any Miss Jessie's as my hair is marked as curly...I got a nick chavez shampoo though, but that is going to be given away, I don't put anything with sulfates in it on my hair.

 
Wish I had a facebook!! If they vote for checks and balances Im totally getting it!!

Yousoldtheworld ...this is my second BB, didn't care for last month box and my first post to this great group. I got the exact same box as you and received it today! 

Box #4:

  • Tarte in Lucky (pink shade)
  • Essie in "As Gold As It Gets"
  • The Kerastase Elixer
  • Twist Band in Coral
  • Kate Spade Twirl Sample
  • Modcloth coupon

I'm happy with my box also, except I'm not sure I like the Gold Essie polish. I like the Tarte Lucky but man, that was hard to open the top! 

Someone mentioned a trading forum here...how does that work, is it a separate group here?

I made a new facebook where I don't have any friends, because I HATE facebook and don't use, just for beauty stuff! Totally wroth it for the free samples and I won a liftlab travel kit yesterday.

 
How do you know if they have sulfates? I got a Nick Chavez conditioner this week and now I dont wanna use it. I have color treated hair

Yup, that is why I did it! Pancua and Isabel were posting about a GUD by burt's bees free sample giveaway on facebook and I had to have it.

 
What other makeup stuff is on Facebook? I just ordered the free sample of Burt's bees lotion! Thanks for the tip

I got my box today, and it was the box I wanted!  Box 4.  Unfortunately, the Tarte was damaged in transit and was all stuck in the cap, but BB is usually pretty good about fixing stuff.

I got:  Tarte in Lucky (the light pink shade), Essie in "As Gold As It Gets", The Kerastase Elixer, A twist band in coral (I want more of these!), and Kate Spade Twirl, and of course the ModCloth coupon  I'm happy with it.
