A research question for y'all...if you could choose between Glossybox and Popsugar (and you can only have 1), which would you choose? I'm considering a GB sub, but I have decided that I am only going to allow myself 3 subs and I wouldn't give up Birchbox or Yuzen, so PS would be the one to go. What do you think?

Popsugar is my favourite, and is the one I'd pick if I could only have one sub. Yuzen is seasonal, so why not get a couple of glossyboxes and then cancel in the month Yuzen comes out? 

 
Glossybox is crazy if they think I'm going to let them auto renew my 3 month subscription at full price. No ma'am. I need a code to deal with their foolery!

I'm waiting for a code too!  I saw on Facebook that Sample Society will have a Butter London nail polish in their next box.  If I don't see a code soon for BG, I'll have to go with Sample Society this month.

Oooh, good to know! I just can't deal with Glossybox and their issues without a code haha. I also just got the BoB box so I think I will be fine holding out until a code is released.

 
Definitely on the fence this month! I keep canceling and getting drawn back in by spoilers! Need another one, or a great code, and I'm sure I won't be able to resist!

Popsugar for sure! You get a great variety of products and they seem a little more reliable as a whole.
 
I just re-subbed to Glossy Box. Quite a while ago I had signed up and got maybe 3 boxes before cancelling. at the time I ha too many subscriptions. Right now I only have Birchbox so I figured with all the talk about the September glossy box, I would sign back up. I was e-mailed a 15% off coupon code that I will post. Not sure if it will work again but you all are more than welcome to try!

Still thinking about GLOSSYBOX?

I can't win! I waited till glossybox charged me then redeemed my dots for a free box, hoping I'd get a second box. Then I decided seconds later to follow up with an email asking to have it go towards a second sept box just to be safe. Get an email today that they went towards the October box and the order can't be cancelled or altered. So, it's glossybox's loss. They could have had $21 for the Oct box but nope...now it's free and they only get $15 (plus my $2.75 to ebates) from me for the additional sept box. Glad they turned down my request!

 
I ended up signing back up with no codes. I couldn't even stay away a month smh! In my defense since the products looked so good I gifted my MIL One for her birthday. I knew a code would pop up after I had signed up.

 
Here is my September German GB:
400


 
Just got an e-mail that my box shipped! Hopefully it arrives on the earlier end of the delivery window... (09/25-10/07) Almost two and a half weeks would be the worst, but I am expecting that based on everything I've read here...

 
Where are they getting that the .33 fl oz BCBGMAXAZRIA Bon Genre Fragrance is a $20 value? It is selling for $55 for the 1.7 fl oz bottle and $75 for the 3.4 fl oz bottle.

55/1.7x.33=$10.68

or

75/3.4x.33=$7.28

Neither is close to a $20 value.

 
I think that GB needs to send welcome kits to subscribers. It should contain a ball of yarn, either a crochet hook or knitting sticks, and a project. Then they can hope that you'll be so thoroughly distracted trying to figure out how to create a cloche hat for a human head size, when your box shows up its a complete surprise. Like "Oh dear I had completely forgotten about my box". Downside is, if they did send out welcome kits, they would probably mess it up some how. "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNIT WITH ONE STICK?!" "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS BALL OF SPAGHETTI?!" "I'M JUST ANGRY YOU SENT ME SOMETHING!" 
Love this! Also, weird question- I don't think Ill use the Nixon, but, my guy complains his hair is thinning (it doesn't seem thinner to me!). Would it be suitable for men with shorter but obviously not buzzed hair?

Most rollerballs retail for $18-$20 on sephora and the like. I'm guessing that's what it will retail for. Per ounce rollerballs aren't the best value....but nice if you never even use up the amount in a rollerball, like me!
 
My mom is a hair stylist and she recommends Nioxin products for her male clients who deal with thinning hair. Even if they are on the pricey side, guys dont need as much product if they have short hair so a lot of them buy the trial size products.

this might make me buy the September box as my guy deals with this, thanks for the tip!

 
I saw this on Glossybox's Facebook, so I came here to see what the Byrdie Box was all about, but I can't seem to find anything on MUT. Has anything about this been posted somewhere already?

Someone posted a picture of a Byrdie Box that had been sent to a blogger or something, but I can't remember which months thread it was posted in. I do know there were a lot of awesome products in it, but there were something like 7 or 8 products, so I feel like we'll get a random mix of those products. I remember there was an OCC lip tar, and lots of other good stuff that I can't recall at the moment. I think it might have been posted in the August thread.

Found it, it's on page 17 of the august thread. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
