FYI - this box was $19.95 and no longer for sale.

My thoughts: I really like that POPSUGAR sent a lot of items that would be great for gifts. (Pretty useful if you already have any of these items thanks to your subscription.) And these boxes included two of our all time favorite POPSUGAR Must Have products: the Barr-Co Fir and Grapefruit Bubble Elixir and  the Terrapin Ridge Farms Pecan Honey Mustard!

What did you get in your POPSUGAR Must Have All-Star Mystery Box(es)?

I ordered 3 boxes as gifts,hoping to receive 3 different boxes that I could match up to the best recipient. Unfortunately, I received 3 of the same boxes with a combination of items I haven’t seen here. I’m really disappointed, as it feels like an afterthought:

Wine glasses, Bingo game , Michael Stars skinny scarf, Cargo blush, small texturing spray, Nutmeg candle and chips that expire before Christmas.

Finally got mine today. Shipping info had indicated 5.2 lbs. I had SO hoped I’d get one of the boxes with the Barr-Co Fir and Grapefruit Bubble Elixir. I love that fragrance. Nope. I got box #1. Meh.

I do NOT need another cookbook. The eyeshadows are shimmery, and I don’t do shimmer. I don’t wear headbands because they always slip off of my head. I do like mustard, so that’s okay. And wine markers = useless clutter. The candle arrived smashed to bits.

I suppose I’ll contact Popsugar to let them know about the candle, even though I don’t even really want it either. 🙁

YES AND I LOVE IT, I WAS ONLY ABLE TO SEE 3 BOXES ON MY IPAD THATS WHY I SAID WAS A DIFFERENT BOX LOL

I just got my box today, and since I have not ordered from Pop Sugar before I was unsure what I would get. It was a fabulous surprise! I got the Fir and Grapefruit bubble elixir (yum, two of my favorite scents), the Tiny Print note cards, the Tarte eyeshadow, the candle in Rain (a little sweet for me but the box is very cool) and the honey mustard (also yum). This was actually the perfect box for me, since I don’t know what I would have done with the headband since it is totally not my style. I can’t believe the value of this, and I will definitely be looking for the next one of these!

I think you are supposed to get 6 things. If you look at the sample boxes, each one has 6 items if I am not mistaken. The headband is missing from the box. You might want to contact customer service. Maybe they could send you something other than the headband? It is worth a shot.

Got mine today, the 4 pound box with socks and wine cork not as bad in person. I love the photo frame and the body washes look fun. My chalkboard candle had leaked out everywhere so I sent them photos, haven’t heard back yet. My 2.7 box had the pecan honey mustard and it is YUMMMMMY. Seriously, I already thought it was going to taste good but wowza, it’s delicious!!! I’m dipping chips in it right now haha. Anyone who doesn’t want theirs, feel free to send them my way! Nom nom nom

I got box five. But I didn’t get the tarte eyeshadows. I got a foot treatment instead. My box came from NY and weighed 5lbs. I definitely had trouble with FedEx but I should of ordered more hahaha

I am soooo excited for this! Also, I just signed up for MSA 🙂 I am receiving the 3.1 and the 4lb on Saturday. I have seen some comments about what to expect for the 3.1, but does anyone have an idea for the 4lb one?? I have been stalking on Instagram, and following the hashtag #popsugarmusthave, and there are so many variations! Wasn’t sure if anyone has already received the 4lb one! Thanks!

I got the 4 pound one today…it’s the magnetic photo frame, Marie Kondo book, socks, wine cork, 5 pack of mini body washes, and chalkboard candle.

I got box number 2. The candle, mustard, glasses and cards will be housewarming gifts for my sister and her husband

I got my 3.1 pound box from CA.
I really wanted a headband but didn’t get it….
I know it was still a great box for $20.
Bar soap, “tarte” eye shadow, photo flame, paper straws, flash masque trio and foldable bins.

I believe this is the box I am getting, I will be very happy with this. I am also expecting a 4.0 box. Not sure what’s in that one. Mine will be here Monday.

My 1st Pop Sugar order, received #3 on 7-20 in SW and I’m thrilled!

Haven’t see any spoilers, so I was happily surprised to find the headband, wanted one for ages, and the high quality candle and bubble bath, (both arrived in mint condition). Hubby personally remodeled my bathroom all the way down to new floorboards and drywall as a 32rd anniversary gift, and says both items will beautiflly complement my finished ‘spa’. Two more weeks before I the reveal, and I can try my goodies, great box!

Checked tracking, it’s almost here. So, tomorrow or Saturday. It is about an hour away. I feel like I am going to explode. I really don’t want those straws or the writers. No matter where I try to log in, I can’t ever get the swap section to load.

Must be a super secret place, lol, no one really talks about it. I guess it is on a waiting list? I signed up at least a week or more ago haven’t heard a peep. Makes no sense to me to have a waiting list on a swap board, but this isn’t my site so what do I know, lol.

2.6# from NY was box #4 from above for me. Not my fave, but not my least fave. The candle and mustard for me, headband for my niece (yay!), and swap or gift the eye shadows, Shea cream, and wine glass markers.

Next is 4# from California, so from what I’ve seen, I’m thinking the happy socks version?? Please, no more books or tricolor bracelets, or wines stoppers for me. I got dupes of those already. Fingers crossed…

I got Box #3. I mean they are all nice things, but 4 out of the 6 were from Nov 2015, which is one of the few boxes I did sub to this past year, so kind of a bummer not to get to try new things. And sadly that beautiful headband is too big for my head so I’ll be adding another to the swaps when I already have one in there. I wish the boxes had been more diverse in terms of which boxes products came from. Glad I resisted the temptation to order more than one and have risked getting more things I already have or tried since my hope was to try new things.

I received my box today, did not receive any tracking info. My box is #2. It is good with me, I have already received the headband and mustard in previous boxes. The wine glasses will go to my daughter for a Christmas gift. But the candle melted all over everything in the box.

I received my box yesterday and none of the items are in any of these boxes but I love everything. I got the two tone link bracelet, jewelry box, Stowaway trio lipstick, soap, soy chalkboard candle and the summer snow gum. I checked past boxes and a lot of these items were from 2015 boxes I think but I really love everything and the total retail was about $167. So I am very happy with my mystery box.

I got the exact same box! Very happy with it, I thought the candle was so nice. I will gift all mine at Christmas.

Has anyone received a 5.4 box?

I got the standard issue 3.1# box (lucite frame, Pehr bin, k.hall soap, paper straws, tarte “Eye Candy” clay eyeshadow, and the three Patchology masks). Love everything and the Tarte was a bit of a surprise because I didn’t expect Eye Candy, but it was a nice surprise. I didn’t realize that Studio-Hall was k.hall designs so totally excited about that soap. Yay…

I’ll be a happy camper when I get mine. I really want the candle, and glasses. I am going through I horrible break up and a nice candle and wine sounds perfect. Lots of wine.

Mine came in earlier than expected (was originally due to arrive Monday). It weighed 5.1 and it had the set of 4 wine glasses, the headband, the candle, the bubble elixir, and the mustard. I was pretty happy as I haven’t received the glasses or the bubble elixir before and I am sure I can swap the rest. 🙂

I purchased 5 boxes total and have received 2 so far. Incredibly enough, I have not received mustard or a headband. Both came from Watsonville Ca.
The contents are:
Pehr bin, tarte eyeshadow, straws, patchology and lipsticks. Missing 1 item if I was supposed to receive 6 but I’m cool cuz I really wanted the bin
Chalkboard candle (smells sooooo good), gum, clear photo frame, blue jewelry box, ugly tricolor metal jewelry and soap.

I am happy over all. I expect to get headband and mustard from the rest of the boxes coming from NY.

Ugh! I got box number one so everything, excluding the book and wine pens, was a repeat from November for me. That November box was the reason I cancelled my subscription! So disappointed!

Received mine today- woo hoo! I so hope this is done again, it’s been so much fun and the items are very nice. I got box 1, 5.4lbs from NY and everything was intact and wrapped nicely. I’m very happy 🙂

I bought two boxes. One from NY 2.8lb which should arrive on Wed. The other box never came with a tracking notice but arrived Tuesday. I don’t know the weight, but looks like it came from CA. I received:

Isaac Jacobs Acrylic Magnet Photo Frame – great for gifting
Mine Chalkboard Soy Message Ceramic Candle – smells really good
Not Soap, Radio Bath and Shower Gel Gift Set – repeat for me
Happy Socks October Popsugar Must Have Box – Love Happy Socks
Nima Oberoi Lunares Geo Stopper – repeat, but nice host gift
Spark Joy: An Illustrated Master Class to the Art of Decluttering and Organizing by Marie Kondo – repeat, but a good gift.

Value around $150.

Super excited to see everyones boxes!

Mine is out for delivery but I wont be home and its REALLY hot in San Diego today 🙁 Im hoping for the wine glasses! I’m all over the swaps for them and need to post more items because I need those glasses! I have a pool and glass near the pool is a no-no but shatterproof would be amazing outdoors! (also if you have that silly swan I want it too lol)
