Bit disappointed by spoilers.  It seems the boxes have been lacking lately, so I ended up canceling the box finally.  The coupons/discounts in the boxes were never used.  Was holding out hoping a good box would come along soon.  Plus the price hike doesn't help.  I was already paying taxes on it making it over $40

Would you like my gift card? I really doubt I'm ever going to use stitchfix. We can trade if you have anything you don't want?

 
I closed out my 3 month sub so that it won't auto renew. Does anyone know if I purchase another 3 months with the squad10 code if it's going to duplicate boxes for me or if it will add on after that sub?? I will contact customer service if I need to, just don't want to miss out on the squad10 coupon... anyone know when that ends?

tried to use it today and it says it isn't good until the 10th... Um... Isn't today the 10th?

I'm under the impression that you wouldn't lose the fee if you bought one thing they sent you - the fee is taken off from the price of the item. So I guess the $20 gift card just means that you can try stitchfix and if you don't want anything they send you , you won't lose out on the $20 styling fee. 

 
the email doesnt say anything about this... but I'm getting this error message - The promo code you entered can only be used by new subscribers.

They should filter out members from their email list then.

I might be reading your response incorrectly, but you don't lose out on your fee if you decide to keep something from the box. The $20 is applied towards your purchase

You're right, I was responding on my phone and left off that point.  der! lol

 
I just checked the status and my box has been delivered! Can't wait to get home. Time to learn how to use that liquid eyeliner :)

  @Eleda where did you see the coupon?  and whats the code?
It came from a Sample Squad email...here are the coupon codes...



Thank you for this promo code! I was able to use it and get $10 off of the 3-month subscription - I used to be a Popsugar subscriber, but I had cancelled my subscription a few months ago.

 
I LOVE this months box! There's several recipes I can't wait to try... The bracelet fits just right... I'm excited to try Stitch Fix... And (from the ingredient list) it looks like I should be able to eat the rice crispy treat! ( I have egg and dairy allergies so there have been a few treats I couldn't eat) plus I love the polish color (Char) and everything else. Personally I think it's a great box and for my birthday month! I'm happy. =D

 
Just got my box! Does anyone know if we can use multiple stitch fix cards? If it's possible if anyone doesn't want theirs I'd be willing to trade for the shoptiques gift card we got last month! Let me know :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 
My box arrived! I painted my nails (Char) and used a couple of the eyeshadows from the palette. I brushed my hair and put in a bobby pin. I'm wearing the bracelet too, which I expected to hate, but it's actually cute. I sent the stitch fix code to my swap partner and entered the charity contest. I've started eating the cake and have picked out what I'm having for breakfast in the morning: Shepherd's french toast! 

My only disappointment is the black eyeliner – I wanted brown so badly! It's going in my trade bag. Grr!

But it's hard to stay mad at popsugar. At least, not while I'm eating a rice krispie treat. My concerns about low-endness remain, and I hope this is not a precedent for the future. However, it's still a fun box and I'm glad I got it.

 
Alright...I concede..

I LOVED THIS BOX!

Was it the most exciting thing ever?? No. However, I think all of the items are fun (@kgirl42 & @ginmorel I'm also 24...so maybe this box was made especially for us?)

~The Can't Cookbook: Beautiful!!! I can't wait to try it out (I love the simple recipes and that I can piece them together to make a killer meal!) ~NYX Makeup: I haven't tried either, but meh, can you ever have enough?? (this is coming from someone with Ipsy, BB, Blush, FFF, Julep, and PS!) If not, there's always gifting :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ~Jane Tran Bobbi Pins: Adorable.  ~Julep Polishes: I received Char, which I don't have, and my Freedom TopCoat is in need of replacing! ~Gorjana Bracelet: Definitely small and definitely not a statement piece, but perfect for Breast Cancer Awareness.  ~Wetbrush: I needed a new brush and this one's hot pink! Smells kinda gross though since it's new. Might spritz it with something it get rid of the plastic stank. ~Crispery Treat: WHAT? This looks AMAZING. Saving it for my cheat day ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ~Stitch Fix Card: Didn't realize they were also waving the $20 styling fee so the money is directly applied to chosen apparel. Pretty sweet deal. However, I'm super picky about clothing and how it fits, and after filling out the Stitch Fix account info I'm not convinced I'll end up with something I like until the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th try. I traded it for a Shoptiques.com card (ridiculous shipping rates, but I loved the CS and the presentation with the packaging was outta sight!)   
Looking at everything I received, I can't believe how much was in this box! I guess I'll be extending my subscription for either the 3 or 6 months, even though I'm worried about the upcoming boxes since they looked pretty underwhelming last year (though I'm hopeful that with the price increase they're going to try to knock it out of the park with the November box)...decisions, decisions.

 
Well I got a reply from PopSugar. Looks like I can only upgrade on an active sub. Looks like they don't want my money!!!!

 
I just realized that the thing that irks me most about the eyeshadow is not the brand or the mixed reviews about the quality...it's the fact that the colors go from dark to light left to right instead of darkest color on the right and lightest on the left! I can guarantee some morning I'm going to be half awake and try to highlight with that shimmery black!

I had canceled my sub last week so I wouldn't get auto-renewed at the price. I asked them if I could add an additional 3 months on now (so jan-march) or if adding now would result in dupe boxes of nov/dec. 

She said I couldn't add on to my current sub, they would be dupes, and that if I wanted to renew I would have to wait til January is available... which means dealing with the price hike. No thanks! I replied that in that case, I wouldn't be renewing at all even when the January box was available, due to the price hike. 

 
Has anyone used the stitch fix code yet? I tried using mine but its not applying the credit.
