They certainly will have to consider those complaint. With a $10 birchbox box, if you get a bad month .. o well, it's $10. If it happens all the time, they will loose subscribers, but few people are going to cancel over one bad box. With $40 for Popsugar, I feel that every box has to satisfy somewhat to justify the expense. It's quite a bit of money .. not just 3 lattes.
I'm still happy with my subscription. But, I can also see myself switching to just the LE boxes once my prepaid subscription runs out. (I don't think you can opt out of a prepaid subscription as that is the whole point of it .. you get it a bit cheaper, but you have to commit). Not necessarily because I am unsatisfied with the regular boxes, but simply because I get so many things that are nice, but not a must have for me. And if I just buy nice luxury things, I might as well go the whole way and buy HQ niceties. Ykwim?
Going to try the nail wraps for our neighborhood xmas party on the weekend. I can totally see myself using the flutes for the kids at an event like that

Please let me know how your nail wraps work out. I currently added them to my trade list because people said they did not last long. I love the design on them but didn't want to waste time trying them if they were going to fall off in one day. I would love to know how yours work out.
I personally was very happy with the December box, but I could see how some people would not be.
Here is how I broke it down. I think I spent $30 on my box due to a discounted sub and pre hike price.
I love the bracelet and would easily spend at least $15 on that so there is half my sub price.
The flutes are something I ACTUALLY WANTED! I drink champagne at least weekly and love stemless glasses and was actually just talking about this brand. I knew they made stemless wine glasses but didn't know they did ones for champagne. They are about $10-12 online and I would have easily paid that.
The rest is basically extra and who can complain about wrapping paper, chocolate, popcorn and mascara?
