That being said, I'm not a big Dial fan, but maybe Dial gave them to PopSugar to include for free? It's a $3 item so it's not like it adds or takes much away from the value.
I agree with everything you said except for the fact that we were encouraged to gift this box. After the disappointment with the gifted December boxes, I probably would have waited until March to add it in.

 
I guess I was thinking that since this box was advertised as a valentines gift it would have more of a valentines day feel to it, if that makes sense. I'm glad there isn't a thong it it, but I guess I'm kinda wishing I had last years box? I dunno hahah.

 
Also - if you get on g&g mailing list they tend to have flash sales periodically for 70% - 80% off

Probably a better deal than that giftcard we're getting. The shipping is normally $9.95 for the lowest option, unless you spend $70.

I ordered the small Chloe earrings on the 4th, they should be arriving later today. I paid $22.75 shipped to the door, they're normally $35
I have my eye on the cute little "TAKEN" ring - might purchase it w the 35% off!

 
I so hope the jewelry roll comes with variations, because I love the gold or teal way better than the red.

 


Someone mentioned that the ties look different in the Instagram picture vs. this one. Maybe it's a not a jewelry roll?

 
Yeah I would be kind of unhappy if this were someone's valentines day gift to me and it had a big dial body wash in it. I do like it for myself though. Oh well, maybe people can bundle up the nicer items and wrap separately if they didn't send it to the person's house directly. That 29 lip product plus a jewelry roll and gift card is a really nice gift on its own.

 
I wonder if the weight variation with the boxes (3.1 or 3) has to do with the candy. It looks to me like we get a box of candy and then a card with a discount code. Maybe the type of candy we get varies and that affected the weight.

the gold is very pretty

 
I have to laugh at all the people who complained about getting Ghirardilli AKA DRUG STORE CHOCOLATE.

I bet you'd take a bag of that chocolate over the Dial wash any day.

Hey at least Dial wash "fits" everyone, last year's Feb box was a big freakin mess with sizing of the robe and undies!

 
I DESPISE BLACK LICORICE. I'm gagging looking at them. Ugh. And DIAL? Not cool. I guess I'll give it to the boyfriend. Seriously, why not even a nicer brand of body wash? Yes, this was only $20 but it's not making me want to keep my subscription!!!

I LOVE candy but I hate black licorice. Yuck. Hopefully the sugar wish candy is delish!

 
 
I am OK with this box.. only REALLY excited about the jewelry roll and face serum, but I think the value is there.  I am glad the half off promo ended early because I was going to get a 2nd box for my mother, who would probably smile and thank me and not use anything EXCEPT the dial soap!  I like dial and will use it but I hope (and kind of expect)  other brands or at least newly released items in these types of boxes.

I do think it would have been a nice touch to add a piece of jewelry with the jewelry roll, esp for those who are giving it as a gift, but I guess they figure longer subscribers have jewelry from past boxes (this is my 4th box, so I haven't gotten any from PS).  Curious about the details of the box..I still haven't used my gc from FFF, I've been hoping for a free shipping offer with no code like they had last summer after they gave out gc with PS...

 
I'm sorry, I'm pretty upset regardless of what else is in there. Dial soap!?!?!?!? I am completely regretting this sub as I chose it over FFF.

I think it's just backwards. looks the same to me but that you are looking at the back.

 
This box is better than I expected. I love the jewellery roll and candle. The candy looks like a good choice, since many people don’t want chocolate again. (Not a fan of black licorice; hoping it’s anything but.) I can always use polish, lip gloss and face serum. 

The Dial will be used and I’m pleased to get it, but it screams ‘care package from mom’, which is not the impression I aim for with gifts. 

 
Ok so I just got my box as I was leaving for class so I just grabbed the info card to take photos for you ladies. I'm on my phone so unfortunately I can't do the spoilers cut... but here goes!

I think the tie looks the same, just as if it was tied towards the back... Maybe she unrolled it to see what it was before posing it for the photo? Just a thought..
