Agreed! I'm in MD also and mine must be hanging out with yours! I want to know what's in the box!!!

I'm in Northern VA and mine usually doesn't say anything until it hits OH or IN and then I don't see anything again until it hits WV

Hope they're not taking up room in this box but I want a margarita. Right now. With a cabana boy.
Doubt they would send a margarita mix; I think it would be too heavy for the 1.7 lbs.

Seriously though: if those bracelets account for half of the value of our box I'm going to be annoyed. No way would they do that. Too many people would be upset. I haven't seen a special edition box yet that seemed really worth it but after all the snow we've had this year I jumped on the "resort box". I'm dreaming of smells of coconut and  plumeria... coral painted toes... beach sack big enough for a book, towel and water...and perhaps a coupon code for a photo book to hold our summer pictures.

Sidenote: I'm in MD. My box has been in the same location, Sac CA, for 2 days now /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Woo Hoo! I'm in MD too. My box is doing the same thing.

I am SO excited for this box! I'm almost forgetting my normal April PopSugar box will be coming too. What a great month. Come on, someone get a box today so we can start talking about the contents!

I agree! They don't look very expensive to me.... kind of look like they'll pinch my arm hair lol. I'll be pretty bummed if that's where the bulk of the value went

Agreed!!

My box is on the move!  I would guess it will be delivered Saturday.  YAY!

  And BOOOOOO to popsugar for making so many of you wait.

 

[JenMiele78]

No update since 4/1 at 11:55 am when it left Sacramento. 

 

[Dolce Caroline]

Yes!  Just looked and mine is finally out of Cali and in GA!!  Should have mine soon, too!

If we go with the idea that the Sisco Berluti being valued at $148 and the towel being $55 we would be looking at $203 for two items. I doubt that PopSugar would just put three items in a LE and remember that $250+ means just that. I'm going to guess this box will have a value a little under $325 and we'll get at least 4 items+  food item. I'm using past LE boxes for value and number of product estimates.

I think we ca still get five items even with the package at under 2 pounds. Past boxes have been so heavy do to all the packaging and the material of items.

I need to see these bracelets again.

They usually pack the LE's nicer though, and if it is anything that can leak (ie: the bubble bath from fall), they usually bubble wrap them. Makes you wonder what sort of packing materials are included in this one and what that means for the items.

We already have a fashion item (the bracelets), and a home item (the towel), my guess is there is 1 food and 2 beauty items to make up the rest of the value. 

 

[nicepenguins]

I would guess $100 for the bracelets, $55 for the towel, and $100 combined for the other items. The food item maybe $10 (they are usually not the expensive thing in the box) and I would say 3 other items of about $25-$30 each. If I had to guess, I'd say earbuds, nail polish, and a beauty or body care item.

Good god I hope we don't get any more earbuds! I have too many already from other boxes!

Agreed. I really do not want ear buds.

Also, for those weighing in on the weight of the box (see, what I did there? heh.) the box might actually be heavier than 1.7. It is possible that the boxes that went out already will have an item missing. Right? PS sent that email saying that they were waiting for an item and that was the reason for delay in the box shipments. Isn't it possible that they realized an item was missing after they started shipping a few boxes out? That's what happened in October with FFF and the Bliss cleanser....

Someone already emailed PS and they confirmed that the weight of the box is 1.7

 

[stephstrong]

With the weight of the box itself and the weight of the 2 items we know will be in the box I don't see how 1.7 is even possible...more popcorn??! Haha maybe some kind of coconut oil or perfume??

 

[aweheck]

Or hopefully an awesome coupon or Code for a huge saving on something we can all use and bring on spring in our lives. We all live in different places and I for one live several hoursfrom a spa or massage type business that would accept any sort of internet code or coupon. Here hoping we get more than our money's worth.... I still think they are struggling with possible funding issues .... Backed up with the fact PopSugar took out money yesterday from my account for April's box which really is actually May's.

 

[nicepenguins]

See, I lose earbuds constantly, so much so that my husband buys me extra pairs randomly when he sees them on sale. Somewhere there is an island of lost earbuds where all of my old ones are.

 

[nicolispicoli]

Ok, that's it, I'm gonna handle this!

I live in Sacramento. I am going to find all these boxes in shipping limbo and it's gonna be spoilers gallloooooore!
