PopSugar Must Have January 2015 *May Contain Spoilers*

[ZeeOmega]

But starting March all boxes will be FedEx Smart Post...

what is the different between FedEx Ground or FedEx Smart Post?

other than the PO Box address? Is one faster than the other? Does this mean we are getting a polish in Februrary?  Since its ground only?

FedEx Ground is FedEx all the way, I think. With SmartPost they hand off to USPS at some point in the process.

i fail at no-buy.

purchased 2 last night!!

popsugar still has jan boxes available.  i wonder what's going on with their inventory planning?  a flash sale for half off and still not sold out?

the january box is so perfectly curated for my life, i held out for as long as i could.

FedEx ground... Fedex handles entire delivery process. Smartpost is awful .....they hand off your box to regular snail mail that in many cases sends your box off away from the hand off and adds on 5 to 8 days to the delivery time.

I think the email about the FedEx ground for Feb boxes says to me that there is something Valentine's Day specific in them since they seem to be making a big deal about them getting to everyone by or around Valentine's day.  

 

[Mermaid35]

That email from PopSugar started out talking about how they were trying to improve delivery times.  Their solution is to bill earlier and ship slower.

Fed-ex ground is so much better than Fed-ex smartpost. As aweheck said above, Fed-ex hands the package off to USPS when it arrives in Phoenix and it takes an additional 3-4 days to get to me.  If it's Fed-Ex ground, then the package is going to get to me as soon as it arrives in Phoenix and I won't have to wait the extra 3-4 days for it to arrive.

I love the idea of Valentines Day related!!!!

 

[I'm so addicted]

What could it be since it's such a a rush there actually changing to fed ex ground for 1 whole month lol..

lol I love that the email states "we trying to improve. .... so we'reshipping ground this mmonth only" lol wooow! Thanks for listening to us psmh!!

Has anyone who ordered with the 50% off code got a confirmation email or anything regarding the box other than charged for it? I want to cancel as i dont really want febs but i dont know if i can cancel now or have to wait till this box ships. I saw a page or 2 back theyre charging on the 25th now so i only have a few days to cancel.

I'm lucky enough to live close to the NY distribution center, and since my apartment complex gets Fedex deliveries daily they usually drop my box off instead of handing it off to usps. However, I do wish services like PS and birchbox allowed subscribers to upgrade their shipping. I know it wouldn't be for everyone, but it would be nice to have the option.

Also, I didn't get this email about the February shipping, could someone post it?

[SIZE=12.7273px]Happy New Year!

Thank you for being a Must Have subscriber. We are so excited for what is in store for 2015! We are constantly working on ways to improve the overall Must Have experience. One of the changes you’ve requested is improved delivery time.

In order to provide you with faster shipping, we are now requiring that all changes to accounts be completed prior to the 23rd of the month before your next box is shipped.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12.7273px]This includes logging in to your account to make any updates to the following:[/SIZE]

• [SIZE=12.7273px]Billing information[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=12.7273px]Shipping addresses[/SIZE]
• [SIZE=12.7273px]Subscription cancellations[/SIZE]

Starting with next month's box, billing will now take place the last week of every month, starting the 25th of each month (i.e., billing for the February box will begin on the 25th of January, and so forth).
 
Additionally, all February boxes will be shipped via FedEx Ground to facilitate a quicker delivery time. We will ship out all February orders as soon as possible, but we cannot guarantee delivery by Feb. 14. Please note that FedEx Ground does not deliver to PO boxes or APO addresses, so these orders will ship via FedEx SmartPost. Starting with the March box, all boxes will ship via Fedex SmartPost.


If you have any questions, please contact musthave@popsugar.commailto:[email protected].

Thank you,
POPSUGAR Support

I ordered it as a gift subscription, so that way it wouldn't renew. I also referred myself when signing up so that way I get a free box on my initial one. I got the confirmation it went through, I haven't checked that email yet for anything else. I am still waiting on a response on my email form the about my my Rue La La vouchers that don't work so who knows with them.

On the site it says subscriptions will begin with the March box......????? Does that mean February is sold out?!?!

*Edit* It says :

The February 2015 box is sold out. Your subscription will start with the March box, which will arrive in March 2015.

Wow!!

Interesting.  I m curious if they cut back on the amount of boxes produced since they weren't selling out.  Would make sense for them to have fewer boxes the month they do the more expensive shipping.  Interesting.  

 

[lauradiniwilk]

I'm guessing it's the opposite...they way overfulfilled in Dec and Jan so they could use the leftovers to draw in new subbies.  It's probably back to business as usual now that they reeled some fresh meat in.

I'm betting LOTS of people used the 50% off coupon and then intend to cancel for Feb, like myself.  Today was the first day I could actually cancel the subscription after I used that half off code to order.

I think the email about the FedEx ground for Feb boxes says to me that there is something Valentine's Day specific in them since they seem to be making a big deal about them getting to everyone by or around Valentine's day.

but then they specifically say valentine's day delivery not guaranteed. For the record the snail pace for FedEx smart post is all before it goes to the post office. It's FedEx that sends mine from Chicago to Wisconsin and then to the south suburbs of Chicago. Once my post office gets it I get it the same day if it's before 830. They make it sound like an improvement by switching but they are only switching for February. Wonder why...If they shipped the UPS version and you get a free UPS account you could upgrade your shipping. So if other subs use UPS...

 

[normajean2008]

How the heck is Feb box sold out already?  It was only Jan box up for sale until just a day or two ago right?
