no worries.. i've only used it for the time since i got it, and seeing results after this short of a time IMO is always the placebo effect.. not saying you didn't get results yet but the amount of coffee, cigarettes, black tea and coke i consumed over the past 6-7 years.. it will take more than a few days for me lol

The lady said that the labels were switched and that I would get a replacement. So... Am I getting someone ELSE'S box too? Not really sure. I guess we'll see. I am really excited about this one though! The cologne looks really neat, bracelet = YAY and I love nail polish! I hope that it doesn't take until next month to get the box. BB said that they haven't even received the replacement boxes for the mess up yet. :p So long as I 'eventually' get a box, I plan on sticking it out though. I really think that this is a tremendous value for the price!

There were doing a promotion, I forget the exact dates, but the first 10,000 to earn points in that time frame got that bracelet.  So you wont be "in the running" unless they are doing another promotion and you do the specific things they require in that time frame.  Hope that makes sense, lol

This is what I wrote on my blog back in September.

Zadidoll: Monday, September 26, 2011 Birchbox: Baublebar I have to admit I'm kind of confused about the latest Birchbox promotion.


 

Birchbox + BaubleBar 10K

This is one 10K you don't have to sweat. Be one of the first 10K members to show your Birchbox loyalty and snag a sweet bracelet from BaubleBar.

Just rack up Birchbox Points between September 19th and October 16th — you have three ways to do it! The 10K members who earn the most points will receive one of BaubleBar's best-selling Black Wood Pop bracelets in their November Birchbox.

Plus — The first ten members to earn 200 points will receive a Birchbox gift set worth over $90!

Guess we have to wait and see how this plays out.


It wasn't for members to reach 10K BB pts but rather 10,000 Birchbox members were to get the bracelet for racking up points. In that time period I earned 300 pts between referrals and reviews.

 
I might be! Looked at the Incoco website to try to figure out which pattern you have — didn't see anything that quite matched your description, but maybe they've discontinued it? This one seemed like the closest match. If it's a different one, could you please tell me the name? Thank you!

Ultracitrus, yes, the Incoco strips are still sealed.  Are you interested in maybe trading?

They send out emails announcing their promotions. This was their first major giveaway.

 
Zadidoll, do you know who won those BB gift baskets for reaching 200 pts? U seem to be in the know about all the BB news. LOL

 
Oh and could you guys give me some advice on how to get referrals? None of my friends or family are interested. I'm even friends with a make up artist and she said it's not for her! I put it on my FB but no one has wanted to try it there either.

Nope. It's entirely possible that no one did.

 
I think thats pretty much all you can do.  If your friends and family don't want to sign up, you cant force them.  You could write a blog about it, and put your referral link in it, let people know that using your link would give you points.  That might get you someone.

On my own blog I promote my referral by posting about my own box contents, my thoughts on the box along with listing the stuff I list here. When I use the word Birchbox on my blog I link the word with my referral link BUT due to US law I DO put a disclaimer on my blog that I do get points from my referral link.

 
Well, 8 days later since it was shipped via streamlite it has shown up in Albuquerque, NM..two more days or three and I will have my box here at my house!

 
I am still waiting got my box to get to the post office.  it was accepted and said sent to the distribution center on the 5th.  lets see if i get it by the end of the month.  I dont want to contact birchbox again over them.  This isnt the first time.  i am going to give it till the end of the week and see what happens. 

 
 
 
Just a question for everyone who gets Birchbox...this is only my second box, so I am still becoming familiar with this program. I live in Cincinnati, OH and the last time I got my box it took a while to get here...I believe about ten days. I know they say that if you live on the west coast it can take up to ten days, but I was just wondering if anyone else that lives around this area has a delay with their boxes? It looks like the post office received electronic shipping info for the november box about four days ago, but no further info has been provided.
