After how disappointing MyGlam turned out to be this month, I ended up signing up for Birchbox as well. 

I figure it at least has the points system! 

At least they're only $10, but to be honest, I would rather pay more like I do for my Julep boxes, and consistently get a product that I actually want. But I realize that they have to have different levels since the pricepoints will change how many people can afford to subscribe! 

I'm excited to get my first birchbox. I swear, the people at the post office are going to think I'm crazy with all the packages I get every month! lol.

Hah I feel the same. I got 2 packages today, 2 tomorrow, and 1 for Thursday. And that is a normal amount per week, lol. And that is what I remember ordering... I have an addiction. But to be fair, I rarely shop in stores. 

I just give my mailman a nice christmas card, hopefully that

Do you think we would get 2 diff. boxes? I feel like most of the boxes have most of the same items minus 1 thing here and there....that's a good point though...uhoh :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

P.S. I saw that you were on the waiting list for the TV box(from an earlier post) you got off of it i assume then? That might easy some peoples minds who are still on the list.





I set up my second profile to be different from my regular profile hopin that I get different things. If I get double samples I doesn't bother me, it's $10 and I can always give it away on my blog or something :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 
I am wondering this too! I've been on the regular BB waiting list for a while, but when I heard about the Teen Vogue box I tried to sign up for that - it's been quite a while since I put in my email and I haven't gotten anything, so I guess I'm on another waiting list. Everybody seems to have been able to sign up right away, though, so it's a bit confusing.

 
I got an email a few days later telling me that I am off the wait list for the tv box.
 
Can I just say after sleeping on it, Im still really peeved. But I dont have time to call them today. If anybody calls them, please let us know what they say about the second accounts that were suposed to be TV boxes.

 
I emailed them and I am waiting for a reply, I will post it here when I do. This is what I said:

I signed up for an account to get the teen vogue box and I just wanted to make sure that I was on the list. I read somewhere that new accounts weren't eligible for the teen vogue box even though they clicked the link that was sent.

I really want this box, I signed up for this box, can you let me know if I will be getting it?

Yeah for sure let us know! I want that box! 

 
Well I wasted all the possible time I could and already will be late for work, so I called while I was getting ready. The girl checked up with both accounts to confirm the opt-in and opt-out. She said I was all set to go to receive the TV box I signed up for on 2/19 with the TV link (second account) and she re-opted me out on my main account.

lthough she did say that since I tried to re-opt-in after I opted-out on my main account there may be a very small chance I receive the TV box but very slight since the box is so popular and they will see the opt-out.

If that makes sense. Id call and confirm your accounts are all straight and you will feel much better. I do!

Cool thanks, I'm going to give a call once my boss isn't around. :p

 
Alright,

  I called them just now between classes and from what the customer service rep said was if you stated that you heard about Birchbox through Teen Vogue when you opened up the new account then you signed up for the Teen Vogue box for March. I asked her to opt me in on my second account for the Teen Vogue box since I had already opted out of it on my regular account. (Before I knew about all of this of course haha). She did say that just because she is opting my account in for the Teen Vogue sponsored box didn't mean I was going to get the TV box automatically. I am still a little confused about the process since I signed up my second account through the Teen Vogue email I received, so hopefully I am ok on it all. I guess we'll see in March... :/

 
Haha, oh my gosh, this is all so confusing!! A little ridiculous. Since I signed up for the second account using the link I guess I'm opted in for that one, and I changed my original account from opt-out to opt-in. We shall see what happens, haha.

Feeling like a roll of the dice on which box you will get. If you opt in you might, if you don't opt in you might, if you signed up with the link its a maybe. 

The only thing to be sure of is that if you opt out you won't get it, I guess. Oh dear.

 
lol they should have thought it out better! Next time, let us just pay an extra 10.00 for an extra box (!) O well, I am hoping for a TV box on at least one of my accounts or I will be a little upset. I called yesterday and they said I was on the list so lets hope its true!

And hope everyone on the list gets one!

Since I signed up as a new subscriber through the TV link and the regular link (but only accepted the invite to the TV invitation) does this mean i'll for sure get the TV box? My invitation is still open for me to get the regular box and now i'm tempted to sign up for that too! I'm afraid i'll miss out on something good if I only get the TV one haha.  But I don't like nail polish so I guess I can always trade with someone on here if I like something in their regular box haha

 
I received the email and couldn't decide, so I didn't opt in or out.. I"ll let Birchbox decide... that way it's out of my hands and I won't "blame" myself for my choice of boxes... lol ... right...? I'm usually happy with my Birchboxes even though I haven't received any full-size products, and I do have 2 daughters should I receive the TV box.

I chose to opt in on the Teen Vogue box! We all know teens love lip gloss, I know I did, and still do as a 22 year old. I hope to see some gloss in the box and nail polish. I heard some ppl talking about Essie but don't know where that came from. Someone fill me in.

 
i opted in for the TV box. ahhh. i was hoping you could still get both boxes by paying the extra $10 but i didn't see that option ;/
