PopSugar + Neiman Marcus Collaboration **SPOILERS**

[melanie0971]

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!

Amen to that!

Exactly why I didn't purchase this box. For $200 I can get a cashmere throw at TJ Maxx if I wanted to, I just don't think that a cotton throw is worth that much.

I wonder how many of the sales are for bloggers (or bloggers doing giveaways). Because it's a special box there will be a lot of people who will want to review it.

I think you're right! I'm not a blogger...but maybe I will review it and use it to kick-off a wildly successful Must Have Box Blog! Just kidding 

 My only "reviews" will be sharing with you ladies here. I love the discussions and various opinions on each box!

Soo true. I also wonder if they'll be the first to receive them.

I'm on the no-buy boat as well.  I kept thinking I could easily spend $250 and guarantee I'll like the result. That and I have my eye on a new pair of boots. Hmmm booots.

I would agree (seems far too time consuming), but I remember that when PopSugar did the giveaway back in May (I think) of the clutch, some bloggers ended up receiving the clutch in their boxes. The number they were giving away was so small that I found that to be kind of surprising. 

I'd like to think that it was a just a coincidence, but you never know. And maybe I'm just oddly skeptical /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Maybe they match by email?

I won a clutch but I'm not a blogger.  I'd probably piss everyone off if I wrote a blog. I probably do enough of that here.

Yeah, that was strange.  I'm thinking maybe it was connected to referrals.  Bloggers would have lots of referrals, and popsugar has done giveaways in the past based on referrals.

That makes a lot of sense!

Another box announcement! Looks like they will be offering a normal special edition holiday box.

From there website by the sold out Neiman Marcus box-

"Missed out? Special Edition Must Have Holiday on sale Oct 30."

Great, just another thing to tempt me after I emptied my bank account for the Neiman Marcus box!

Yay! Hopefully, this box will be priced similarly to the other LE boxes!

That's great! I want to finally get one of these LE boxes, but I just don't know if I will or not.

Fantastic! I wanted to get an LE box too but didn't want to spring for the NM one. 

I'm currently debating whether to extend my sub by another 3 months or not. (Currently I'm good through January.) October was my first box (and I loved almost all of it), so I'm just trying to get a feel for whether I'm going to continue loving PSMH for another 6 months or not ... 

Past box reviews have always looked wonderful but I am a little concerned about a decline in the contents. I may have loved most of the box but I admit that October wasn't quite as fabulous as the previous months.

Me too! Mostly because I asked for a sub for Christmas, and it would suck if I ended up getting multiple boxes of the same month, especially since my mom doesn't really care for the Popsugar boxes, I'd really have no one to give them too. Oh well in January if I don't get a sub for Christmas I'll totally buy myself one since I tend to have used all the items I got in previous boxes.

I do not need another special edition box. I do not need another special edition box. I do not need another special edition box!!!
