*Spoilers* September 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

[melanie0971]

AAAGH I gave in. I ordered my boots from Shoptique. They are pricey, but on sale. The $25 was helpful, but not that much. I can't wait to get them and wear them all over the place!!!!  If you see a chubby Asian girl with the most awesome moto boots stomping around Chicagoland, it's me!

I'll keep an eye out! Lol I do sometimes wonder if I walk past a PS subbscriber.

Why is my box spending a week doing a tour of Atlanta again? I know traffic can be bad but it shouldn't take a week to move an hour /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I want to get something cute from shoptiques before it's all sold out! I am always too late for the ps gift cards...

My shipping has finally updated and im thinking i should have my box either tomorrow or friday! I guess i need to check out the Shoptiques place again. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm actually pretty happy with this box!  When I first opened it, I wasn't extremely excited about anything, although it will all get used.  However, after redeeming the Shoptiques code for a free maxi dress, this has turned into a nice box.

For those of you still waiting on your boxes, I counted 20+ items you can still get completely free with your code +$5 off from sharing on FB... still lots of cute stuff left! 

I also came across these gems (NSFW... haha): http://www.shoptiques.com/products/blow-drier-earrings

Not sure what they were thinking when designing those...

I saw those when I was looking and i thought the same thing! I would never wear them, but if I went to a hair salon and the lady was wearing those while she was doing my hair, I would think they were adorable!

I'm always late too! I got my charm & chain too late and couldn't get anything I really wanted. I got super lucky that I got my box yesterday and got somethig before stuff runs out. Hopefully you get yours today!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I see girls all the time around the city with PopSugar stuff ALL THE TIME! I've seen at least two tassel necklaces walking around... a brokedown scarf AND the gorjana scarf! I always want to jump up and down and run up and hug them, but then I remember that would probably get me shot... or at least pepper sprayed.

Those are sweet! I have to say I have obsessively cruised the shoptiques site several times since I read about it, even before I received my box and code. Looks like my new favorite obsession. I was waiting for this month's box more for the code than for the actual box.

A research question for y'all...if you could choose between Glossybox and Popsugar (and you can only have 1), which would you choose? I'm considering a GB sub, but I have decided that I am only going to allow myself 3 subs and I wouldn't give up Birchbox or Yuzen, so PS would be the one to go. What do you think?

I apologize in advance if this seems ranty.... 

I wouldn't go with Glossy Box if they offered me free boxes.   Last month I was charged at the beginning of the month, alerted that my box had shipped only to learn that it didn't actually ship for another 10 days.  They have non-existent customer service - I called and I emailed for about a week only to get a response when I had my bank back charge the cost of the box.   

The products in the box last month included:  A face powder that is no longer available and obviously a close out given the colors that were available. I don't expect perfect matches but I think the point of sub boxes is to try things that you can then purchase if you like them.   

A face misting spray made with propylene glycol as the second ingredient which makes it a safe bet that the glycerin in the product is bio diesel based and though labeled as "Lavender" was actually scented with Lavendula which is the scent used as a cheap alternative to actual lavender.   

Pop Sugar on the other hand bills me on the 6th, and ships a week later and I know that while my box will go on an adventure before it gets to me (right now it's sitting in Ellenwood, GA and like Sherman will make it's march across Georgia to me in 4-5 days.  I'm not always thrilled with everything - dried fruit always makes me imagine I'm eating a mummy - but the items are interesting and fun.

Woo!!!! 

a shipping notice!! Well, it's just "initiated" in Gilroy, CA (shipping info sent), but better than nothing!. I had emailed them earlier in the week and received the typical canned response (before we got that "your box is shipping soon" email). I don't expect to see my box until early October now. With all the flooding here in Colorado, I know shipping has been slowed, and that's okay. I'll be extra excited for this box! 

 

[mvangundy]

Alright, who ordered the blue leopard print type scarf from Shoptiques!? Dang it, I was too slow.

I can't imagine the boxes are having much fun in Ellenwood...  If I was a box that was doomed to spend days in a town I'd go to Decauter or Helen for Octoberfest.
