POPSUGAR Must Have November 2014 Spoiler & Coupon!

Ugh, not excited about this after reading the reviews on Amazon.com. It sounds very unpractical for most people based on the time and equipment that would be required.

I started my PSMH subscription in August and was THRILLED with that box (the earrings, the shower gel, the lipgloss!!! Etc.) but every box since then has gone downhill for me. Might have to cancel my sub after this Nov. box….

I’m going to have to cancel my sub… I’ve sent three inquiries regarding an issue with my October box and still no response. This doesn’t bode well for me…

Ok…mine initiated today and it’s 9.1 POUNDS?!?! What is in this box?! LOL, I’m kind of excited…

I’m torn…i really don’t bake and have no desire to…and i don’t know anyone who does bake…so i don’t really see a point in getting this. But i can turn it in for credit at the used book store and maybe there will be nice stuff in the box as well…

This book looks fantastic! I wish that I could trust popsugar enough to renew my subscription. I was double charged in October and still have not been refunded! I sent my original request to customer service on October 19 and FINALLY heard back from Lisa yesterday asking me to send bank information to prove that I was double charged. I cannot even consider signing up right now until I am refunded, so maybe I will just buy myself this book 🙁

just what every person who must avoid gluten wants…a book about pastries with flour all over the front 🙂
I gues i will be gifting this 🙂

I love cookbooks so this is a total win for me! I am getting pretty overloaded with make up and skincare at this point and I’m excited to see a good gift/home item!

I resubscribed to Popsugar because of the spoiler. Not sure if I’ll keep my subscription long term though as I got out at the right time (when they increased the price and the quality went down. some months so bad I was so glad I had unsubscribed when I did). Still a little optimistic but we shall see…

I was totally excited about this book until I went on Amazon and read the first review. I love baking but the reviewer says you basically need specific equiptment for each recipe, and most recipes take 2 days to make!

From the review: “Many of these recipes do call for “specialized” or uncommon kitchen equipment, like specific molds, an airbrush, tart rings, blowtorch, smoking gun, apple wood chips, precision scale, piping bags, fine/medium-fine sieves, deep-fryer (Cronut), Ateco/Wilton tips, ring cutters, terrine mold, ice cream machine, etc… ”

I dont know about everyone else.. but I do not have a single one of these items and try to not have so much kitchen clutter for items I only use once in awhile.

While my idea of hard labor is having to cook anything more complicated than soup in a microwave, I was very pleased to see that this book isn’t all pastry recipes. As long as they don’t require anything more exotic than vanilla extract, I might be able to use the book for more than a door stop.

Good job, Pop Sugar! I hope November will all be curated so well after Oct — and have 100% faith it will. 🙂 An upscale cookbook fits the demographic here. Give it the Oprah test… Would Oprah love it? Ps. PopSugar, jewelry and high end make-up make women forget all kinds of past woes. 😉

I would love to see in this box the cookbook, a jewelry item, a fall snack, one classic make-up item or a brush (ooh, a foundation brush!), a household thing like the adorable Jonathan Adler dishes… I can dream! Excited to see Nov, since the company is working so hard to renegade their base.

This is awesome! I always wanted to be a pastry chef, yes, I did!!!

How disappointing! I used to collect cookbooks, but why kill a tree when you can look something up quicker, and with many more options, online. If they don’t come up with some much better spoilers I guess I’ll just have to pass on this stinker.

I’m on the fence. I wish there was an option to get it electronically. I’ve eliminated so much clutter by having books on my tablet. That said, I do love to bake — but it would also make a great gift for my friend who runs a cake business…

I’m kind of excited about this box now. After so many disappointing boxes with PopSugar, I hope this box pans out to something awesome for the holidays. I love cooking and cookbooks, I just hope it’s not too hard.

I am excited about this! Baking fancy pastries is so fun for me, and I don’t do it often enough.

I’m so so on this item for myself but I feel like it could be easily turned into a good Christmas or housewarming gift by just throwing in a few more items

I am so excited about this!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE cooking and cookbooks! This is a total win for me! I do wish there was a way to take advantage of the $10 off coupons that pop up without unsubscribing and re subscribing all the time. ( I have never actually done this) I wish there were perks for people who just keep the subscription and get charged monthly. Oh well even for $40 this box is usually always a win for me!

I’m surprisingly excited about this. Just getting more into baking and cooking, and I think this might be enough to motivate me to conquer my fear of pastry-making.

I like this one…it is something a bit different.

This is a total win for me!!! The recipe for cronuts is almost professional level so I would assume that most of this book will not be for beginners FYI. I have had them and they are divine.

Kind of looking forward to this interesting choice… There are only 31 recipes spread over 272 pages so it probably has a lot of essays? or photos? This should be a heavier box as the book alone is 2.7 lbs…

This is a total win! I wanted to buy this cookbook anyway, and now I’ll get it in the box. I was upset about last month and was waiting until the spoiler to decide if I was going to cancel or not, but it looks like I’m keeping the subscription, at least for now. I hope they’ve worked out the kinks on their website and with their customer service, because then I may decide to actually keep this for good.

I first read on MUT that you posted a spoiler and that it was a cookbook and was a little disappointed but when I got to your site and read more about it I am so excited. I haven’t gotten a Must Have box for a year and have only done two special editions. Since it is my birthday month I decided to treat myself using the coupon you posted with the necklace and I am so happy I did. Since I did it on a whim I was a little nervous I wasn’t going to like this box but after this spoiler I am really looking forward to the box. I love baking so this is perfect. A regular cookbook probably would have gotten swapped or given as a gift but this is so awesome. I can’t wait to get it and start baking. Thank you so much for the spoiler.

Ugh total miss for me, as was last month. Plus their customer service and shipping really were horrible for me last time as well. I hope there is a higher value item this time around.
