I do not go wading into that toxic swamp. Can you elaborate?
Called to cancel, got skipped instead, automatic withdrawal, overdrawn at bank, no apology from Julep, no refund from Julep, deleted off facebook for cussing,  Spamming every post about Julep.

I skim read/read some of the comments on FB so I'm sure someone who did read it all can give a better description but the jist of what I saw is someone called up and cancelled last month and then were charged this month anyway for their box and their account was low so it overdrew so they're not only out the $19.99 but an overdraft fee too. They called up Julep to get it fixed and Julep said "too bad we can't do anything, boxes are nonrefundable" kind of deal. Now they (and I'm guessing their friends or other redditers) are blowing up Julep's page with links to their BBB "F" rating and such. Then Julep deleted some comments (which I saw them say were due to language) so people are accusing them of trying to cover up any negative feedback. 
Or Ditto.

Ha! I liked yours better. I'm far too prolixy ;-)

I'm not saying that Julep is right here.  But this happens at least every couple of months if not every month.

You know if you follow anything you better check and make sure they actually cancel it.  No, you should have to but with Julep you do.  I know when my bank is that close I am double checking every dime especially automated payment.

I'm getting a not found page when I try to go to the secret store.  It was there earlier for me but when I want to buy it disappears.  I did get my box this month too so it's not that.  

Julep does not want my money.

That happened to me too but it's working for me now.

Argh I dunno.   I really want the gems collection but I have SO much polish. I think I have a problem.

Have you tried logging in again?

One of my pet peeves about Julep's site is how quickly you get logged out. I think you get logged out automatically with about 20 minutes of inactivity or something, way worse than any workplace-secured websites I deal with!

I keep meaning to complain, but then... something more important always comes up.

I feel your pain.  I'm thinking the same thing.  Plus I already have that jewelry box from when I got the Favorite Things collection in the warehouse sale, so I don't really need a second one.  I keep reminding myself that I'm not a huge fan of chunky glitter.  I hope that helps me resist.

unfortunately that doesn't work me -I love chunky and/or full coverage glitters!!   I couldn't help it- I succumbed to the sparklies! 

(what sealed the deal was a friend offered to order for me through her account and used the first20 code (since I already used mine), and she'll buy my dupes.)  SOLD!  Take my money!! 

I got the gems, northern lights, the mini set (so cute!! & plus now I can finally try the freedom top coat), and Elle. (& my friend picked up for herself the anniversary champagne trio as an add-on- w/ the 20% off- she snagged it for like $8!  great deal!!)

And Im planning on getting the boho glam Nov box as soon as it comes out on the site (took it girl for my (mostly free Nov box)... and debating on using my free polish code for cynthia...  man, I have a serious problem! lol  but at least my nails are pretty...

Your post made me laugh. LOL.

I loved the Secret Store this month!

I got Autumn with Caper and Kai add on for like $13 with the 20% off code, which I thought was a great deal. I really liked the New Neutrals set, but most of the colors are similar to ones I already have.

This made me laugh!  You think you have a problem.  You are on an online makeup/beauty forum on a thread for a nail polish subscription service, talking about what we bought and what we want to buy with a bunch of lovely ladies who all have the same "problem" as you!  I'm sorry, that is just how my sense of humor works!

So what you are saying is that she does in fact have a problem, but that we are all equally crazy?

 

[cari12]

I almost bought Northern Lights (quite fitting for me!) but I don't have any codes to use (already used all the ones there are, haha) and I have similar colors already, and 5 new polishes coming Friday. Lol. 

I do not need more polish. I do not need more polish. 

Though, I do love the mini set and the new glitter collection (only a couple dupes in it for me, I may get it if it goes on an awesome sale around the holidays...) 

 

[dousedingin]

I've definitely used the first20 code before, but for whatever reason it's letting me use it again. I really don't need more polish. Really. I don't. But I feel like being able to use the coupon again is a sign....

Yes, that is what I am saying, except I don't like the term "problem."  I would prefer a different term.  I'm not very clever, so I can't think of a different term right now.

Maybe, nail polish obsessive, or we could label it a disorder and call it "loss of self control induced by nail polish."

Oh, I do have a problem.  I've spent over $200 on polish this month, it is bad. And and at the very best I'm middle class, really more like lower middle knocking on middle class's door- that's not a small amount of my budget :/

Hahaha I like that.
