Woohoo!    Got my 2nd box just now; the one I signed up with a younger age. ( that was just serendipity, because we didn't know at the time there would be a difference; I just did it so that I'd seem like a different person, in case there was a limit on boxes to one address)

I'm 50 and the first box was the one for us Crones...this second box is the one for Sweet Young Things. I used a birth-date of 1990.

I hate the Dove stuff, but I got the pink lip crayon I was hoping for and turquoise polish. I believe you young 'uns are calling it teal, but in my day, when they took our aerosol sprays away from us because the planet was going to freeze over in less than a decade ( if it didn't collapse completely from population explosion) it was called turquoise.

Now get off my lawn, and go sign up for another box with a different age.

 
I'm bad... but I think I'm going to sign up for another box with an older age. I have an obsession with night cream, and $5 for two nice products is a good deal.

 
Has anyone logged in to see what their status says? Like those of you the received your box vs those who haven't. Just curious if it changed to "shipped" or not. Mine still says "Processed" but I didn't order until the 10th so I'm not too worried. It's only been a week and a half. I may call them if I don't get it by next Friday though. I'll keep checking on here to see. 

 
I finally got my box today :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Got Invisible Solid deodorant (regift to a friend who loves it)

Innocent Coral Glossy Balm (a little goes a long way)

Laserlight polish (a deep dark blue/black)

Dove S/C duo (regift to a friend who is going on vacation)

L'Oreal Pore Vanisher (will give it a try)

Dove Dry Oil (will give it a try)

Nicki Minaj perfume (fruity but will keep as backup)

Neutrogena foundation sample card (will give it a try)

Was kind of dissapointed I didn't get the mauve gloss/teal polish combo but these colors work for me.

Got my box today (was a hassle but not walmarts fault) and I got box #2. Don't really care for the Dove because I just bought the full size Davines Love from the birchbox shop but they'll make good stocking stuffers for my sister. They love the travel sized ones for when they go on trips with school clubs. Loved the color on the nail polish. It was a gorgeous teal blue.

****not having to do with the actual box just a rant, feel free to stop reading ******* sorry didn't realize it would be that long

I literally had to argue with my mail carrier to give me my box today. I had mentioned earlier how I moved this month and had not been receiving my mail regularly. When I moved in I filled out the slip they place in your mailbox with my married and my maiden name. I'm a sucker for privacy so I always worry about potential employers googling me and finding a database worth of info. Basically if it's not something professional/bills I use my maiden name. Subscription boxes, giveaways, freebies, I use my maiden name. For some reason my mail carrier does not approve. I've changed my mail slip twice now to include both names and every time he removes it and puts a slip with only my married name on it. I really don't know what his bone to pick with me is, but it feels kinda personal. Long story short, I had to stalk my mailbox today and run out and ask him to leave my package. I honestly think he wouldn't have left it if I hadn't asked. At this point I'm beyond tired of arguing for something as basic as mail.

That's insane. I've been using my maiden name all my life, and while sometimes social invitations arrive addressed to 'Mr. and Mrs.', most of the time it's my own name. If the PO interfered with my mail because of THAT, I would be furious. I made this choice for my own reasons, and I think they're important ones. You did the same thing (though your reasons are different), and since it's not an attempt to defraud or anything, you are entitled to do so.

That said, I'd have a word with the local PO branch about it. Interference with the mail is a serious offense. If you're less inclined to do that, you might just try having a word or two with your letter carrier in as low-key a manner as you can manage.

 
What colors/shades did you get?

I signed up for a second account using an older age to get box 1 as well - if they remain as good as this (definitely worth $5) I will have samples for both age variations :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
Mauve colored lip crayon and dark blue/black polish. I'm also considering doing that! I have a face cream collection and can always find room for more... haha!

File a complaint with your local post office if this continues. We have mailed delivered to our house under several different names - mine, my maiden, my daughter's (whose last name is my maiden), the hubby and our businesses - including Zadidoll. I have a slip in our box containing all the names of those who reside here since our house has an apartment and we get their mail as well (despite the fact we're not suppose to).

Thanks everyone for the advice. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> This is probably what I will end up doing if this continues. Aside from giveaways and freebies, (which are not must haves, but hey who can ever complain about a freebie), I also get anything dealing with my university years under my student (maiden) name. So alumni information or student loan bills are mail I just can not afford to miss. I have most of them set to auto draft but I'm old fashioned and still like to get a physical copy of my statements.

 
Got my box yesterday. I'm really happy about it. Not going to use the perfume but the rest I will. Can't wait for the next one.

 
I got box 1 earlier this week. I was very pleased with the box contents. Thank you to @ for posting the link so that we could sign up.

That being said . . . 

My "daughter" will be receiving box 2 (hopefully) as I just signed up with her age being 19.  :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
