I am new to the site however, I just signed up for Panty Fly.  Not sure yet how it is going to be but I saw them on this site.  I figured you cant go wrong for just $7, I also have ordered birchbox in the past however I am not currently using them.

Ah! I LOVE the look of The Homegrown Collective and wish it wasn't so expensive! I would love to try that one out. All their past boxes just look amazing. Maybe one day I can wiggle my money around to afford it.

I just got an email the other day that I am off of Ipsy's waiting list and my first box will be in April so I am excited about that one! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 
I just got off the wait list too!  I'm so excited for my first Ipsy bag

Gosh I just went on a little sub box splurge, I'll probably cancel at least 2 of these, maybe 3 next month, but maybe not. Who knows?

-Glossybox. This will be my 4th box and I love them!!

-Beauty Army. Again I absoluetly adore this box. Both times I've had awesome choices!

-Birchbox. For only $10 a month I'm not going to complain especially since the samples I've received have been awesomely sized!

-Sample Society. I'm on the fence. April will be my 3rd box and I might cancel. Its just kinda boring.

-Ipsy. Just got off the waitlist (I was on it for 3 days) and so April will be my first bag. Super excited!

-Julep. I orded a free box last night. Its the intro box. I want to try it, but I'll probably cancel or skip and end up only getting the mystery boxes.

-Lip Factory. I love this box. They have awesome products!

-Square Hue. I only wanted April's box, because I was drawn in with the bloom hue thing, so I'll probably cancel after I get a tracking number.

Also I signed up on the pre-order list for:

-Ambition box. The spoilers on their FB page look amazing!

 
Updated sub list...

I am currently subscribed to the following subs:

- Barkbox: We are on our 10th month.

- Beautyfix: I am on my 2nd season.

- Birchbox: I am on my 11th month.

- Conscious box: I won a giveaway for a 3-month Classic subscription. Also, I signed up for the vegan and gluten-free boxes for next month because of their $1 promo. So next month I will receive all 3 varieties!

- Love with food: I re-subscribed for a 6-month sub with a deal from Fab.

- Pawalla mini box: I just subscribed for a 3 month sub with a deal from Fab. 

I flirt with the following subs:

- Beauty Army: I may get a box this month because of the Skinn cosmetics teen tone and Cotz sunscreen.

- Glossybox: I only subscribe when there are great promos or spoilers.

- Goodebox: I bought a 'single' box during the Holidays. I wasn't thrilled with it, but it looks like the regular boxes are better than the box I had received.

- Klutchclub: I bought the 'best of' box with a promo code.

 
Oh no, I think I'm going to regret finding this thread! I started out with Birchbox (a little over a year now) and then added Ipsy because of MUT and am waiting for my first Starbox to arrive today or tomorrow, also because of MUT! Now I see all kinds of subscriptions that I never knew existed and I'm so tempted! So many boxes, so little money!

i have ditsies. they run large. i asked them and they said they have no plans to bring in XS :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
I asked them recently about the XS, despite you mentioning that they're not planning on bringing in XS, and got 2 replies. The initial reply was one of indifference letting me know that they we only going to have S, M, L. However, I received a surprise follow up email apologizing for the first email and letting me know that Ditsies is working on bringing an XS into their options. I thought you might want to know ... in case you want to try them in the future.

oh wow, thanks! I forgot to skip my last month actually and I got a cute see through lace black pair. It fit really well (different material?) but then, a few hours later I noticed that they had stretched out already and were much too big again. That's really weird....underwear shouldn't do that...right?

I got a red lacy pair that was a little loose :-/, but I was told they switch up fabrics every 2 months if that helps. No, I don't think decent quality underwear should be stretch out that much after only a few hours. I'd be pretty upset if that happened to a pair I received. I definitely think you should contact them about that because it sounds like it's a quality issue.

yeah it happened with my first pair too. that one didn't fit that great either but after a few hours it got even looser!! they look like they are different qualities too so i'm really confused. I may not be keeping this sub if it keeps happening...it's not like their tight on me so idk why they are stretching.

It probably has something to do with the bottoms you wore... :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I hope mine fit well. I just washed them so I should be trying them out soon.

I'm new to subscription boxes so I'm trying a bunch to see what I like. What I'm getting: Ipsy Birchbox beautybox 5 Julep Sample society Pop Sugar New Beauty Test Tube - QVC version Starlooks Starbox Little Black Bag Cravebox Food ones Naturebox Goodies Love with Food I think I'm going to cancel Sample Society, the product while nice are too high end for my wallet and I like the point system of Birchbox better. I got popsugar for 6 months with 25 off but I'm not continuing after the 6 months because $35 is too much a month. Test Tube I'm going to cancel, got it twice and haven't used anything in either tube yet. Probably will give Love with Food one more month and then canceling. Ones I would to try: Wantables Graze Square Hue

 
As of now, I'm still currently subscribed to the following:

Ipsy

Little Black Bag (been skipping for a few months now and is the only reason I haven't canceled)

Canceled:

Goodies Co. (I wasn't really satisfied with my February box and after seeing what was in the March one, decided that it just wasn't for me.)

Love With Food (I enjoyed what I've been getting, but I don't think it's worth the $12/month, even if they do donate to charity. Granted, I think I'll try a box here and there whenever they have a free box code, otherwise it's not something I'll subscribe for in the long run.

I don't think I'm going to try any more subs for a while since I wanna save money and they're not something I truly need to have. With Ipsy, I've enjoyed what I've gotten, but I may take a break at some point -- partly so I can use up my samples, and partly to save money. We'll see what happens in the coming months.

 
I'm currently subbed to: Birchbox Popsugar must have Sample society Julep Yuzen (quarterly) Fabfitfun (quarterly) Eco emi For the makers The past few months I've cancelled a ton: Ipsy Glossybox Pawalla Whimseybox Brit kit Naturebox Conscious box
