Mostly because I'm quitting Birchbox after January (and I have a nice even 20 pts for $20 off their shop). I liked my time at Birchbox, and I did find a couple of products through them I use regularly that I would not have tried otherwise, but frankly, I'm tired of perfume samples I never wear, and hair oil samples one box after another. Their points program is great, but unless January blows my socks off, I'm pretty much done.
I had intended to start Popsugar in January, but I got bumped up to the December box after a few people on their waitlist flaked. Currently, the January box is sold out, and they're taking orders for February.
Basically, Popsugar is a subscription box wherein you'll get lifestyle stuff (books, movie tickets), housewares (candles, mugs), beauty stuff (nailpolishes, lipsticks), food, etc. It's more rounded than a lot of the other subscriptions out there, and for $35, you're guaranteed full size products worth far more than $35 (and I did find this to be true). Shipping is free.
After scoping out the previous few months' boxes, I took the plunge. I liked most of the offered products and figured even if something's not a perfect match, it's at the least gift-able. And I like trying new things. I'm a novelty seeker.
( The December Box, spoiler-cut for other subscribers.Collapse )
So yeah, I'll stick around for another month or two. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the box.
If you're interested, two things:
Thing One: this is my referral code. What this means is that for every two people I refer, I get a month's box free. If you join up, please consider using my code?
Thing Two: Coupon code "REFERFRIENDS" gets you $5 off your first box.
