PopSugar Special Edition Resort Box

[afwife8405]

Some ideas for a light resort themed box...

Lip balm with spf

Sun hat (I still love the one we got last May and wear it all the time)

Fun tote bag

Sunglasses (I was hoping to get a pair in either this box, FFF or Nina Garcia and so far no sunglasses & they did have then in last year's summer box)

Toiletry pouch/bag

Travel journal

Hair Accessory

Eye Mask (cloth type to block out the light)

Mine's initiated too and it says it's 1.7 lbs. What the hell kind of stuff can it contain that weighs that little and is still a good $100 special edition box. I'm pretty mega disappointed right now and am hoping the 3.8 lbs is the correct weight.

I have a turkish bath towel bought accidentally because it was advertised as a blanket on one of the daily deal websites. Anyways, superlight, and it is so pretty I take it with me to the gym since it takes up so little space and is really absorbant. love it, and I'm hoping the one in this box is as good or better. Super light, not looped like usual bath towels. 1.7 lbs seems light though, a lot of the things I imagined would make it heavier. Hoping for jewelry and nice skincare or sunblock, those can be light.

I'm excited for next week. Yay for Popsugar Resort box!!

Hi,  Sorry the ink is light, but here's a copy of my box in transit.

Thank you for sharing, you didn't have to. I have gotten where I do not believe in weights any more as I have had several that have been really wrong. It does seem really odd though that there are just only two different ones. I wish others would get theirs so we can really get an idea. If it is 1.7 lbs. I don't know how anything substantial can be in that box! I am feeling let down. I have tried to be positive rough the last several weeks, but all these different weighs and I can't figure out how they can only send out a couple of boxes and not the rest. That seems weird. Oh well, I think I am going to avoid this thread as it is making stressed and sad. I realize that between the towel and the bracelet it already is a lot of value, so they really don't have much to add that way. But I can't believe that they would just put a couple of items in the box and that would be it. They know everyone would like an assortment of goodies in the box and I hope that is the way they go. And I hope they are of good quality too.

Thanks for being sweet. I'm just as excited as everyone else in getting this box. I honestly think it could just be a typo or something. Popsugar LE boxes are usually heavier than the normal monthly box. Whatever is in the box is a mystery for now /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Hopefully, someone will post a picture tomorrow or Monday.

I hope so too. Then all the speculation will go away and we won't be in such a quandary! LOL. The unsureness really makes everyone excited and uneasy. I think people don't know how to feel. Wether to be happy or unhappy. They want to make sure they are getting their money's worth and more. And also want something they can use and be happy with., I do hope everyone will be happy with what they send us regardless of the weight!!! : )

I'm excited about the two spoilers we already know. Whatever else is in the box I hope I'll enjoy. If not, I'll just regift it. Lol.

Guys, I'm not getting this box, but let us not forget that the regular PSMH box in March was really light and everyone was super disappointed and when it arrived everyone loved it! No worries, ladies! I'm sure it's going to be an amazing box!

 

[feisty1]

Could they be sending winners their spa gift inside of some of those boxes? I think I read somewhere that they were sending those out sometime in April? Could make up the difference in weight.

 

[Laurenv78]

1.7 also....wonder what's in the 3.8lb boxes?

 

[camel11]

I bought the ...two...boxes because I loved the spoilers so much (which are both very light! The towel is WAY lighter than a standard towel, and bracelets are nothing), I'm not as concerned about the remaining contents.

That said, I can't wait for a spoiler!

 

[Bizgirlva]

In terms of special edition boxes even if it's 3.8 lbs or 1.7 lbs that's still pretty light compared to the more recent special edition boxes.  I think the Holiday box was 6.6 lbs and the Fall Style was 5.9 lbs. 

I don't remember what the Summer Fun box weighed, it has a couple very light items (truffle pouch and sarong) but also the candle.

I'm just hoping to get my money's worth and not have the (literal and metaphorical) bulk of the box taken up by those seriously overpriced bracelets. =/

 

[Spiritwind10]

Well, after sleeping on it and thinking about it, I know no matter what is in the box I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY WITH IT!!!! With just the bracelets and towel it more than makes me happy as I love both and they are both lovely gifts to myself and I will be joyful with the rest of the contents and glad I got the box!

 

[Blonde vixen]

The suspense was killing me so I emailed them and asked them how much the box actually weights.... should I report back if they actually tell me? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I agree about a turband or maybe a straw hat... cameras are light too, if it's something like the baby cameras Fancy's been sending. Other lightweight things:

•  sunglasses

•  tanning towelettes (hope not...)

•  small travel candle (like the peony one)

•  toothbrush/mini tube of Marvis

•  clear pouch with empty bottles/jars for air travel

•  something made of light mesh, like a swimsuit cover-up?

•  cotton candy

•  rollerball perfume

•  tea or some kind of powdered drink

•  eye cream/serum (usually in tiny containers)

•  lip scrub

•  string bikinis! 

ok I should stop there. 
I love how "cotton candy" is thrown in there..hahahha

love it!!!

 

[Baublesntreats]

Maybe there's some kind of food item that they want to keep cool and they put a cold pack in boxes that are going far away or to warm climates?  That might be a ridiculous idea, but it's all I can come up with, lol.

 

[kvanhat]

Mine still hasn't shipped. I really want to see what's in this box. The wait is torture. I feel like I ordered it forever ago, haha.

 

[MsBLittleton]

Just checked by reference and info was sent to fedex with 1.7lb weight. Now to see if that the weight once FedEx receives it!
