What are the other subscription boxes that gave you scarves? I'm a scarf freak!
Ha! The FabFitFun fall box had a Gorjana scarf: http://www.ramblingsofasuburbanmom.com/2013/10/fall-fabfitfun-vip-box-review-coupon-code/
Also the October Fair Treasure had a grey scarf: http://mommysplurge.com/subscription-box-review/october-fair-treasure-review/
For what it's worth, I am a fan of both those subscriptions thus far. This was my first FFF box and I will get use from just about everything in it, and Fair Treasure sends me lovely things every month from different parts of the world. I have worn all their accessories and had many compliments on them!

Subscriptions like those are honestly part of the reason I'm thinking of cancelling PS. They just aren't delivering anything original lately and I'm not getting use out of a lot of the stuff they include. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's more of a masculine smell, at least on me. I'll be gifting that I suppose. All in all, I'll probably cancel PS unless December is absolutely bonkers amazing.
So glad someone else is meh too. I feel like a weirdo amongst all of the happiness. lol

Does the scarf have tassles on the ends? I like to sew mine together to make infinity scarves, so just wondering.
I was very much so happier with this box than with October.
-I LOVE pine scented stuff and I use bar soap for part of my shower routine, so yay!
-The candle was nice and big and already making my house smell yummy without having lit it.
-The Lands End wine tote will probably be be filled with wine or treats and then given away at my work Christmas Party. I don't mind wine totes, but I'm not much of a white canvas tote girl.
-I used the nail polish wipes this morning--AMAZING! The smell is almost non-existent and they're oily as opposed to dry your skin out stink. Very awesome. 1 wipe took off more than one hand's worth of dark polish.
-I love scarves--and to fill the need ebay has furnished me with many cheap China scarves, but this is HUGE--I love it. I wish the print was more visible on the back side, but no whoop. And if I got tired of the color, it's acrylic so I could totally dye it later.
-The jam looks interesting. I am not much of a preserve kinda person [sourdough toast and Kerrygold butter are fantastic], so this may also be re-gifted.
Out of curiosity--did anyone get a different style scarf?

LOVE this box! Too bad it'll be my last though due to the price increase....
If anyone is looking to trade their canvas pop gift card, I still have and would be willing to give Gorjana & Griffin, Shoptiques, or Stitch Fix (Not sure if they expire?) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Not that this has to do with the Nov box, but has anyone else gotten their first Stitch Fix? Mine was scheduled for the 13th but I just got an email saying it's already shipped! Which is fine with me =)

Rats! Of course I'm in love with the first box I am not getting since I cancelled my sub last month. Sigh.... C'est last vie!Got my box! Gray/black scarf, Nice candle, and Peach nail polish remover. Love! ETA - in regards to the soap, I might just open it and use as an air freshener in the bathroom or something like that. I love the scent of pine but I'm not a fan of bar soap.

My box is in Chicago. Now just a side trip to WI before it comes back me in Illinois. And for the person who asked about Stitch fix mine was scheduled food the 13th got the notice today and I should have it Thursday. How much you want to bet this shows the same day as PS, Birchbox and the birchbox home box. It's gonna look like I went on a shopping spree! Lol good thing conscious box hasn't shipped yet

I know the feeling, I have cancelled Birchbox TWICE, and both times they very next box was all that I ever wanted in a sub box (excuse my exaggeration but you know what I mean). I'm not going to resub but it does break my heart to think about it.

Just tried the preserves. They were tasty, but strongly on the strawberry side so that was a little disappointing. My roommate seems to like the soap and since I always shower after him, I do like the lingering smell of it when I get to the bathroom but it's definitely not something I would use on myself. Overall I think I am using more of the items in this box than the last but... still hoping that December makes me wish I renewed. (Even though I won't, because a 33% success rate would not be what I want to spend that much money on! Lol)

Thank you for posting this! It made me look at the status of my box... it also hit Chicago this afternoon (so I'll probably get it Thursday... the same day my Stitchfix is scheduled to arrive). Our PSMH and Stitchfix boxes are keeping each other company!
On a side note, it is snowing today and my yard is completely covered in white. It looks like a regular winter wonderland outside....

I tried the preserves on toast yesterday and had the same feeling. I love strawberries but thought it'd have a better depth of flavor than it did. It'll get eaten though. My bf said he'd use the soap.

Oh, I'm so jealous of the snow you're getting! I'm in Southern Oklahoma and we hardly ever get snow. My daughter keeps asking when its going to snow (shes 3) and I have to tell her, very brokenheartedly, never. Haha. It snows sometimes, but its mostly just hard, icy snow and not enough for kids to actually play in. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Also jealous that you'll be getting your box so soon, lol. Mine will probably be here Saturday hopefully. Maybe Monday. Unless by some miracle it goes a little faster!

wanna trade mine. I am sure I wont use my Canvas POP card
