  I couldn't help myself and I splurged on this box.  I was watching and clicked without thinking.  I've recently paid off all my debt (Being deployed helps you save up a bunch of money) so I wanted to reward myself with something fun.  Normally I would not justify spending this much on a surprise box.

On another note, how do you do the signature box at the bottom that some of youhave with the links to your blog?? Or do youhave to do it each time??

Click on the My Profile menu option. Then scroll down past Your Recent Activity and Your Photos. There's a section for Your Forum Signature. Just create one there and it will show on every post you make. 

Thanks Amanda!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yes, I have also with free shipping

I was so proud of myself for skipping this box. The throw sounds UHH-MAZING but I already have way too many, and it's going to take me 10 years to get through all my makeup from subs. But it sounds like a great box, and I was SOOO tempted!! I'm glad it sold out before I could change my mind. To reward myself, I bought a beautiful pair of Vintage Corral boots today! I will refer to them as my "I Don't Need The Neiman Box Because I Have Great Boots" boots /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> But I will continue to stalk this thread religiously to see what y'all get!

I care! 

 I think part of the quiet might have to do that we probably won't actually have the box in hand for another 3 weeks or so. I'm pretty terrible at speculating what PopSugar will include in these boxes. Haha.

I really am looking forward to the arrival of this box, however! I have been happy with all of my PopSugar boxes (monthly subscription since May and Fall LE box), so I'm sure I'll enjoy this box as well. I'm glad that it was timed close to the holidays, because if there is something included that I don't have use for, I will likely be able to use it as a gift for someone.

As for the spoilers so far: I love the chevron pattern of the throw. It actually doesn't exactly fit my decor, but I've been trying to break out of what I call my "matchy matchy" tendencies, so as long as it is a compatible color, I will use. I have never tried Le Metier de Beaute products before, so I will welcome the opportunity to do so. I was checking out their products after seeing that one will be featured in this box and was so tempted to give them a try (I'm intrigued by their angled foundation brush). I'm going to wait and see how I like the item featured in the Neiman Marcus box before taking the plunge. 

I wouldn't mind seeing some sort of luxurious food item in the box, like fancy holiday truffles. I'm hesitant about jewelry--I feel like they might send a bracelet, and I'm never able to wear the bracelets sent out in boxes like this because my wrists are too small. I think some sort of winter weather item, such as a scarf or a hat, would be nice (particularly if they splurged and sent something cashmere...a girl can dream!).

I really wanted to get this box!! I was so sad that it sold out so quickly, I was at work doing a double shift. This just means I have to get some boot to cheer me up...stalking Gilt for those 5050 boots.

I know but half the fun (or maybe more) is the anticipation part!!!!! I'm really excited about the LMdB kaleidoscope...wondering what it will be like since LMdB posted on their website that it will be unlike anything they've done before....hmmm... I'm sure there will be some kind of holiday treat and a jewelry item...did you see the Marc Jacobs bracelet in the NM look book?? Super cute but I feel ya on the sizing thing, the Gorjana bracelet from last months box was too big for me haha!!

 

[stephstrong]

Oooohhh also did anyone see how uninformed LMdB was on the NM box on their FB page?? They stated that they were teaming up to make a kaleidoscope... Which I'm assuming was a no-no thing to say since PS has not announced it. Then, when people asked when the box would go on sale, they relies they "thought" it would go on sale nov 17...what the he'll talk about uninformed, does anyone else find this strange??!

Yeah I saw that too, and was a little perplexed. 

I'm thinking maybe they're just not informed about PS policies because there's no reason LMdB would need to know the logistics of that, since they're not the ones handling the sales.  

Maybe they were told to have the kaleidoscope shipped by November 17th or something, and they thought that was when it went on sale. 

 

[AshJs3]

I believe the items from the box will go on sale individually November 17th.

 

[stephstrong]

Le Métier de Beauté Our understanding is that the box goes up for sale on 11/17. We do not believe that the individual items will be available for sale. We will ask and report back. XO LMdB This is from their FB page

 Flame away but I that throw looks like a K-Mart or Walmart clearance special to me. I don't care how soft it is, or if it were crafted by nubile virgins only on the full moon. Good luck to the ones buying this box, it will be interesting to watch reactions after they are received.

 So true! That spoiler is kinda what tipped me into the no-buy zone. 

I am still anxious to see what everyone gets though.

Lol maybe that's why I like it. Also why I didn't buy it. I'm here because I am curious though.

Ha, I think the throw is super cute...but it'd be a cold day in hell before I spent that kind of money on a throw...I know people say you get what you pay for (which I generally don't really agree with, personally), but if I pay 200 bucks for a little throw, it better do my laundry, vacuum the floor, and tuck me in at night...

But I'll still be stalking this thread because I am super curious to see what else is in there!
