Yeah, that kind of confuses me. I know it says you can stash "beach essentials" in it, but I don't know why I wouldn't just use a tote to go to the beach. And $38 is INSANE for that. What's so great about it?? Maybe I'll understand better in person what makes it so fancy.
I also don't really think that a candle fits the theme very well; it's just not very summery. I was almost positive we'd be getting some kind of ice cube tray/popsicle molds, but nope. Ditto on the tanning products (which I'm happy about) and the summer reading.
However, I'm very happy we're getting a scrub since I am WAY more likely to use/appreciate that than another lotion. I'm super curious about how the sarong looks on and if it's something I'd ever actually be able to wear.
Of course I'm excited for the sunglasses but I'm not sure all the styles that were sent out so we'll have to see what I get. The water bottle is always handy, so no complaints there or with the Refreshers.
Okay, so I'm ranting now, but those are all my thoughts. I am very happy with it, even for $100, but I concur that it's not quite a "full" box. Two to three more small items would have gone a long way.
Yeah I was thinking that too. And easy to find everything. Their site shows it with kindles and iPads in there too so you can protect your electronics from the sand. I love most of the items in this bag but will probably see if there is a code for this one and just buy it separately.Warning: I don't know how to do a spoiler alert on my phone. the thing everybody is wondering about is actually awesome if you switch purses a lot (maybe work bag to weekend bag or diaper bag to regular purse). And it's waterproof.
Funny I think that is what I am most excited for myself!I am SO excited for the Water Bottle. I cannot wait to test it out to see if it holds true to the claims of keeping things ice cold or hot for 8+ hours! Thats AWESOME! I also love that it will keep my wine chilled (the website actually has a bottle big enough to hold a full bottle of wine) can you say excuse for a summer picnic? Or taking wine to the Beach! ;-)Â
Something to keep in mind about spoiler tags in this thread or any other thread with "spoiler" in the name: That designates a spoiler thread, so they officially don't need to be used. People on phones (and there are many of us) have huge problems using them, so they are done away with in these threads.I'm afraid of reading too far up in here in case people aren't using spoiler tags. I did see someone in SF got a box. I only want to know if more boxes shipped - particularly east coast? Mine says processing... Did the SF person have "processing" status when receiving the box? I recall reading she didn't get a shipping notice. Obviously, I want to go spoiler free (hence the caution in reading back). I did try last night and saw something some posted and didn't want to see so I stopped.
I only know of boxes received on the west coast. At least one person didn't receive a tracking email.Understood. Hence not reading into the thread. But I do want to understand whether there are other boxes out being shipped. So that's why I asked the general question. Anyone have any answer who has been reading through the threads?
