Aw, hope you feel better! I did the same thing when I was stuck at home with my broken ankle for 3 weeks! Now I'm swimming in samples :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yeah, but I think they just threw random crap in a box just to get me to stop emailing them and/or yelling at the customer service people (it's a long story going back to *March* that culminated in them contradicting what I had been told in writing, completely *not getting* what I was mad about, and lying to me about being contacted by "senior management"):  Two or three of those foil-on-a-card samples, a men's razor, and a tiny tube of sunscreen (Aveeno, I think).  

 
I'm getting a ups package from DR. Bonners on Wednesday  they never got back to me so this is a surprise. I love the my ups thing where they email you when you have a package coming even if you had no clue it was coming

Isn't that the best?!!!

 
Hi Julie, I think Dr.Lipp will be included in your next box, so stay tuned. Thanks, Pontine This is the reply I got from Dr.Lipp when I told them I didn't get a sample in my September Birchbox.

 
Hahahah. Why would they say that?? I just read it with such a weird, ominous tone!

???? Huh She was telling me that Dr.Lipp might be in my Oct. Birchbox, how is that ominous

It reads as though she is warning of something bad even though she was simply stating that she thinks it will come next month. Although she obviously has no idea how bob works.

Ok

If she's being snarky, it's lost on me. Ha ha
 
I don't think she was "trying" to be snarky. It was just one of those things that was typed out and sent... yet reading it by another it sounds almost creepy. 

 
Sorry, I used the wrong word here. I dont know why I said ominous? Obviously that's not a bad thing (ominous) if you get what you want in your box! (propitious! auspicious! pretty much every single antonym of ominous..doh. facepalm.  the way i read it was this Dr Lipp CS agent was in front of a crystal ball predicting your next box. sorry, not on my A-game in terms of words right now!)
 
I was just commenting that I think its funny she replied in such a way that implies that the item *will be* in your very next box  -- even though neither of you have a way of knowing. So, its pretty silly she said maybe it'll come in October since of course, maybe it wont. Sorry, I wasn't trying to be snarky - just used the wrong word. I think I got my Dr. Lipp in April through BB.
