I love that you used them in the Bodum mugs from last month! Those mugs are fantastic.

Hi everyone! Long time lurker, figured it was high time to join. I really enjoy reading everyone's opinions on the boxes every month. I actually consider it half the fun of subscribing! I got a pink you-know-what if anybody would like to trade the black one for it. Sorry, being a noob, I'm still trying to figure out spoilers and trades.

Edit: Please keep all trading discussion in the Buy/Sell/Trade section

My BF LOVES the mugs. I am trying to find him a set to order online (for Valentine's Day) and a lot of places (that are decently priced) are completely sold out!

crate and barrel sells them individually

I recalled seeing them at the home section at jcpenny. About $18, so I definitely thought their inclusion in the box was awesome!

My coworkers love that I'm subscribed to PS. I end up sharing all the stuff I don't think I'll like or use with them. I try to spread the love around and/or give the things to people who match up. For instance, that emergency kit from last month's box went to the coworker who LOVES being prepared for anything (and cute stuff). She is even buying more for her sisters and friends. The mini-marshmellows from this month's box went to a different coworker who will enjoy them with her teenaged brother. I don't act like it is a "gift" or anything. I'm pretty much like, hey...I got this in the PS box and thought you'd like it/get use out of it/etc.

I know I'm picky about certain ingredients in food and makeup, and I realize PS cannot possibly cater 100% to my whims and peculiarities. I figure I'm doing ok if I enjoy about 80% out of most of the months. People's perceptions and expectations out of life really do determine how happy they will be. Not that I'm discrediting people with legitimate issues w/the service. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

You should check out your local grocery store too out here in SF I saw that at Andronico's for a good price I think they were like $20 on sale that was when I first got them though so the sale is probably over but still never hurts to look! Great idea for a v day present btw /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I live in Washington and finally got my box today! I got a black watch! was surprised because I only heard of people getting pink or white but the LED thing is super cool and you can change out the colors /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Everything else is kind of eh but I know I will use it and that's what counts!

I think I want to try a new box, I just canceled all my beauty related ones, time for something different. Any recommendations on another box like pop sugar.

I agree about all the negativity.... The only complaint email I ever sent to them was about the bracelet that was very size specific after they specifically said they didnt need to know sizes and it was for feedback more than wanting them to do anything for me... other than that a lot of people, hubby, MIL, mom, friends, have benefited from my 5 boxes...

I am still debating about getting back in for Feb.

I alot of people are loving SeasonsBox and Hammock Pack.

 

[Glossygirl]

I'm absolutely loving my seasonsbox subscription... can't wait to get my February box!

Actually my husband likes the GIANT black blinking watch, and surely it's not feminime... who knew?

 

[katybug1986]

Well I got my box...

I got a white watch. I like it even though I was hoping for the pink. I didn't receive the popbars and am disappointed because I was looking forward to those. They were advertised on my card but not included in my box.

Love it!  He is awesome.

I made the Hot Cocoa Cookie recipe off the side of the marshmallow container today.  Pretty good if anyone is wondering how to get rid of their marshmallows! 

 

[Shauna999]

Me too... They forgot my pop bars too- I wrote them an email. The marshmallows are delish wish I had cocoa to go with them

I am on the fence about this box. I subscribed back in december with insider code. It was supposed to start in february, but I requested to bump my sub to january at the last minute. My box got shipped the day the 1st spoilers appeared here, lol. If I saw spoilers a day earlier, I would not want to do that. I am curious to see what color I get. Not excited about the other big item, as I have one exactly like this and my daughter likes to play with it. I hope nothing will be missing or damaged as I contacted PS several times in the past and it just a little annoying. my box cost me about $27 so it is not so bad. almost as much as yuzen sub costs, which I cancelled.

Just opened my stability ball box - I think it's cute that the ball is co-branded with PopSugar /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Also, I love that they included a 50% off an instructional DVD code on the box.
