Well, mine has made it to Dallas finally, but my estimated delivery date is Tuesday. Really hoping I get it before then. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I so agree! Sometimes the retail value of the stuff they send out in sub boxes is SO freakin' high, but to me personally the values come out much much lower.

Finally got an estimated date of arrival - on Friday.

Is the wrap made of polyester? Looks like it's not cotton?

Fascinating. My box arrived in Georgia, about 30 minutes from my house on Monday.  Apparently it wants to tour all the neighborhoods before delivery to metro Atlanta on Friday.... 

 

[nicepenguins]

I'm in GA too. Apparently it will take two days to travel an hour. Well, I guess it's on Georgia time haha.

My EDA is Friday but its currently half an hour from my home. Can I please pick it up and save you the trouble (apparently traveling anywhere but here) smart post? Pretty please.

I wish we could pick up packages at Fedex Smart Post... the facility is down the street from my job! But it takes 2 days to get from Smart Post to the post office to my home

I just cancelled my PopSugar account -- this will be my last box.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I do love the element of surprise, but too many things just aren't too my tastes.  I've got a fun Ross store near my house, where I've scored some great stuff -- I may hold my own $35 challenge there each month instead.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I hate smartpost.  I am in Arkansas so my box has gone past me, as usual, and is now bouncing around 2 hours away.  I will probably not get it until Friday.  

Date/Time Activity Location -
2/13/2013 - Wednesday
12:03 pm Arrived at FedEx location
  FEDEX SMARTPOST SOUTHAVEN, MS
-
2/11/2013 - Monday
8:55 pm Arrived at FedEx location
  MEMPHIS, TN
6:07 pm Departed FedEx location
  OLIVE BRANCH, MS
3:47 pm Arrived at FedEx location
  OLIVE BRANCH, MS



This is just crazy.  Olive Branch to Memphis I can see - Memphis is a huge hub.  It is 30 minutes NE of Olive Branch.  25 miles.  

BUT THEN.  It went SOUTH to Southaven - which is 18 minutes away.  and it took 40 hours to travel those 14 miles.  

The kicker?  Southaven is only 13 miles east of Olive Branch.  It's almost a straight shot!  They turned a 13 mile trip into  ~40 miles and almost 2 days!  I KNOW, their system is the cheapest route and all ....  but that is so frustrating.  I could have driven to Memphis last night and picked the darn thing up!  That is only 2 hours from my house.  It left Watsonville at 5:15PM on 02/07 and I will be lucky if I get it this Friday.  

I just had to vent ... I've stayed mostly spoiler free since my birthday was yesterday and I never get gifts, this is the only "surprise."  My mom takes me out to eat, my dad sends a check, and my ex-husband won't take our son shopping.  So I am really eager to get my darn PopSugar box this month!!!

Mine is out for delivery!! Woohoo!

I hope your box shows up earlier than expected. Mine usually shows up a day early! Fingers crossed! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I LOVE this brand and it would be less awkward than giving them to a friend haha

I second this motion!!!!!!! Send to me if you don't want them! I'll gladly trade for something else in the box

So I got one of two of my PS boxes...Um, why only one when they both literally traveled together?!?!?!  Oh well, I still got one a day early which makes me happy!!!!

HAHA that's ridiculous. Where did they even get separated?!?!?!?!

 

[Briechen26]

I like the idea of the wrap, but does anyone else think it feels a little cheap for supposedly being $84.  Not saying I won't use it though, it's really cute!  

 

[nicepenguins]

Okay excuse the fact that I look like a total butt and still have to drop some baby weight but I wanted to share that yes, they also sent it in pink and also that this is how it fits someone in a 36E bra. Note that the top part kind of falls open so ill have to tuck of in. It's cute though and ill wear it and bring it for travel maybe (I have a matching pink microfiber towel). Anyway thought I'd share.

 

[Shauna999]

LOVE IT IN PINK!!- Thanks for the picture  

 

[wishingwillow]

I'm in Alpharetta and mine got here yesterday so maybe there is hope it will arrive sooner?
 

 

[LisaLeah]

Fyi, for anyone concerned about the wrap fitting them properly,

you could also turn it into a towel turban to dry your hair!
