I got my two boxes – duplicates. Oh well, most items are usable, at least.

Why would people get 2 of the same box when it clearly says you can get dupes?

The current mystery box states you can get doubles. Most of these posts are from the previous mystery box back in the fall. They stated they would vary the boxes in the fall

I got my two boxes – identical and I was disappointed.Two bingo games, the Briogeo hair stuff, chips, bottle openers, post cards, bubble elixir and phone chargers sticky notes. I’m not a subscriber of PopSugar and was wondering if these boxes would make me want to join…nope!

What boxes did you get that were dups? Did u order 2 in the same category? I bought one if each

My second box just shipped and it’s also 6.2 pounds from New York. I’m hoping that maybe the weight will change but I doubt it. Popsugar didn’t seem to make any effort to make sure people didn’t get duplicate boxes. Maybe someone with two CA boxes would like to swap. ?

I’m one of those receiving two from CA, and would consider swapping with someone with a duplicate box from NY. My boxes are stalled in Sacramento – they’ve traveled 170 miles since Friday. Looking forward to SOMEONE receiving one so we know what’s in it. Looks like someone dropped the ball at Popsugar!!!

The weight on my boxes changed from 6.2 to 4.8 lbs when they reached another place. Weird!

Melissa
I got mine and I am not happy. The weight originally said 6.2 and went down to 2 after delivery and both were exactly the same.

PopSugar Misery boxes by the sound of it. I am actually starting to dread getting mine. I stopped getting Julep mystery boxes because they were terrible (in my opinion) and Julep had advertised certain item (in the promotional pictures) that were not in the boxes. What a waste of money. I probably won’t re-sub for Popsugar again.

I’m so sorry Melissa…….what was in them?

The phone charger I now have 3 lol. The scarf also now have 3. A nice candle the only thing I like. The cargo blush, the post it notes, texturizing spray 3 again the Chocolate coco balls.
Colleen
My hopes for variations are crushed now. My boxes are stuck in Sacramento and still scheduled to arrive on Friday. Like others, I was thrilled by the last mystery box and how Popsugar was able to get different boxes to those with multiple purchases. This is my first mystery box order and I bought 2 boxes. This will greatly impact future mystery box purchases – If I purchase, I will only buy 1. What a bummer Popsugar… we were so hopeful. Much better to under promise and over deliver than promise to try to avoid dups and fail so miserably.
Has anyone that ordered multiples received different boxes?
Cassie
I ordered two boxes. They both shipped from Newburgh, NY and weigh 6.2 lbs. So disappointed after reading comments about previous mystery boxes. I was so hoping to get different boxes!

Sigh…I got more than one, and they are all 6.2 pounds and coming from NY. I wonder if the CA boxes are more likely to have swans?
Reply
Helen
Oh no – please don’t send me a swan, Popsugar!! I really don’t know what I’d do with an inflatable swan. Maybe a condiments holder? ?
Reply
Rosemary
Oh Helen! I did not mean to blight you with the Curse of the Swan. I hope I don’t get swan-karma. I might end up giving all of my Montana relative novelty inflatable drink holders for Christmas.

My boxes shipped today – both from Wappingers Falls, NY, both weigh 6.2 lbs. PLEASE PLEASE be different boxes ?
DId anyone have this happen during the last mystery box sale and get different boxes?
Reply
Melissa
Same here! Both from NY and 6.2 lbs. I was hoping by purchasing them at the same time they would guarantee it’s not the same boxes. Disappointing.
Reply
Laura
I’m in the same boat this time, both from the same place with the same weight 🙁

Sue
4.3 lb box on its way from CA. I bought one of each mystery box and just signed a 6 mo Black Friday sub. Never had pop sugar before
Helen
The shipping notice I received today says that the box is coming from California and weighs 3.5lb.
So, probably no book in there I imagine.
Reply
Marina
I had to go and look at what the package weight and location says!
Well I hope that willsonville er whatsonville sorry(it’s dark) cali is a good thing!
Mine is also 3.5 pounds so hopefully no book as that’s really the only thing i’m not interested in!
I’ll be curious to see what is in the heavier one from ny!!!
When are your guys’ boxes estimated to arrive?
Mine shipped today and the eta is next Friday, hopefully even sooner!!
Can’t wait!!!
Rosemary
There are over 250 hats up for swap (if that is the hat that you are talking about). I like them, but I am amazed that so many people hate them. If the hats are in the mystery boxes, I won’t be surprised if there will be over 300 on the swap list.
Reply
Deionna
250?! That’s terrible! I don’t get it, I loved the hat!
Reply

I would hope that the “RV” of the hat would be more like $29 (not $58) in terms of a swap. Good luck!

I absolutely loved everything in my mystery boxes last time! Popsugar gave me 3 different boxes too, so I had no duplicates! I ordered 2, and then I just went and ordered 2 more! Super excited to see what will be in them!

Does anyone know how far back boxes the mystery items usually come from? I’ve been a subscriber since May so I’m wondering if there might be any mystery items from Jan-April boxes ?
Reply
Kelly
I went back and looked at the last six months of pop sugar box reviews and saw a lot of things that could be very giftable for Christmas. Now to decide if I want to order one or two.

I totally caved and bought THREE. I bought two last time and I was so pleasantly surprised with it that I couldn’t miss out this time either! I am a subscriber to PSMH but I’ve been subscribed for less than a year so I hope to have some goodies I didn’t receive already. Plus, a lot of it I will just be using as Xmas gifts.
Reply
Marina
I just gave in and got one too, I couldn’t resist as I love Popsugar!! I have resisted all year long(except feb which I loved btw)…this (and LLB I just got on sale) will be my Christmas gifts for myself. Sadly my family, except my mother who has a very tight budget(but still gives the best she can and I do the same for her), just doesn’t get me D: …or even understand my love for subs! Well my Grandma loves getting them…(from me)
I wouldn’t even mind if I got the goofy swan thing!!

Read a lot of the comments and agree with them all. Great minds think a like. I ordered a box but I think you all have talked me into buying another one if they are still available.
Sigh, I am so weak. I bought 2. I was suffering FOMO and I really enjoyed the anticipation from last time. Please no books. Also, did everyone else notice the last boxes were $19.99? They went up by $5…I am guessing they are testing out how much we will pay for the mystery…yeah, I am so weak.

Yes, but last box was $20 for $100+ value with 6 items.
This time it’s $25 for $125+ value with 7 items… Probably trying to clear inventory!
Reply
Jace
I noticed the cost increase too, but I think it’s because we get one more item compared to last time. Lastt time the box had 6 items. This time there will be 7; I am super excited!

I went back and looked at the first round of Mystery Boxes and I noticed that all the products were from past Nov/Dec/Jan boxes (2014,2015), Today Show box, and a few from May this year.
So Now I will be obsessing over various groups of months as possible choices, as well as hoping that if the trend continues we can expect 2 more rounds of mystery boxes after this one.

sigh ordered a box yesterday.. told myself limit will be only one .. nope.. just ordered box 2 this morning just because they were still available… 🙁

How can so many of us be so easily swayed?? I kept saying that I was going to be good and I cancelled a few boxes to prove to myself that i meant it, only to turn around and cave when I started reading all the posts here. I have to admit I do love a good surprise and the last mystery box did not disappoint. Granted, we could ALL do without these goodies, but oh the anticipation……………..this is seriously an addiciton, good job with the name Liz!!

Tell me about it! I just ordered one, but am thinking about a 2nd… For Christmas gifts & stuff? I didn’t order any Target boxes over the past 2-ish months to that’s how I’m justifying the extra purchases 😉

I didn’t get the last mystery boxes and they looked fantastic. So with FOMO running rampant in my head, I just ordered two boxes. I sure hope I don’t get another bingo game to add to the two I already have!

I brought a box the last time and received Kendra Scott earrings so I may just push my luck again and hope I get another set of earrings ?

What?????????????????
Which combo was this 🙁

I first got the mustard but it arrived broken so they sent me Kendra Scott earrings, bath sponge, apple dish, nail oil, hair milk thing. Best box ever!!!

The last round of mystery boxes were really nice. No one got tassels. I am sure, being October, no one will get a swan or a pinipple pin. Lets have some faith. They did a great job last round.

Brandy
I finally caved and got one. I didn’t get one last time around and regretted it, so hopefully this round of mystery boxes is as good as the last! I haven’t subbed to PS since January so I will be happy with almost anything – but definitely don’t want that hat! 🙂

Deionna
OMG! I so hope I DO get the hat! I haven’t subscribed for a few months so I missed out on it.

Anyone else a HUGE SUCKER when any sub company says “Mystery Box”? As soon as I saw MSA post about it on Facebook, I clicked and ordered. I literally didn’t even think about it. LOL.
Reply
Luna
Me too!! “Mystery Box”, “Limited Edition”, and “Past boxes on sale” (if I’m not subscribed to that particular box) always get me. 🙂 I would have jumped on the Goodbeing bonus boxes, but since I’ve been subscribed since earlier this year, all of the products in the picture looks items I’ve already received, so I had to sadly pass.

Me too! I have serious problem. I bought the Ulta advent calendar too bring me up to 15 different boxes this month.

I’m glad to hear I’m not the only addict..and yes, I can’t resist mystery boxes! I had a serious moment of panic when I noted that I didn’t see the email about PopSugar boxes until a few hours after it came out, and thought I would have missed them! I purchased 5 of these mystery boxes…yes, 5. I justified it to myself by saying that I will use the items for holiday gifts (true…), and because I just cut back on the boxes I wasn’t really loving…I’m now down to “only” 13 subs, LOL…but I had been up around 20!

I got it! Super excited.

The ONE day I didn’t have a chance to check MSA or my email all day, I finally sit down and I find this. I nearly fell off the chair clicking over, terrified they would already be sold out. But, they weren’t and I bought two. I didn’t even do that well on the last mystery boxes, but I did get a few things I wanted and I figure, with the holidays coming, I can never have too many random little gifties ready to go.

Lol, I had the same experience. This mystery box was so unexpected that I almost thought it was just the review of the latest box. Really happy I got one 🙂

Getting the hat would be a bummer. Although I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s in most boxes.
On the bright side – at least I could be Boy George at Halloween!

That’s one thing I hope I get lol. POPSUGAR put that hat in one of my boxes please!!! I bought 2 last time around, and loved them, my husband even liked them, and he usually rolls his eyes at me hahahaha….so I bought 2 again this time.
