POPSUGAR Must Have has added a new Upgrade feature! This means that you can take advantage of any Black Friday deals by adding them to your existing account - no need to create a new account and get duplicate boxes.

SO! If you took advantage of our Better Than Black Friday exclusive POPSUGAR offer, you can ADD to it on Black Friday with the additional deals they will be posting! (You can still grab this deal! Full details below!)

UPDATED Clarification:

The MSABF code cannot be used with the upgrade feature. The Better Than Black Friday deal is available for new subscribers only.

However, if ou purchased a subscription using the code MSABF, you can use the upgrade feature to take advantage of future deals on top of their existing new subscription.

Here's How Upgrade Works:

Step 1: Log in to your account, then select the subscriptions tab.

Step 2: Click the UPGRADE button above your account information

Step 3: Select the 3-month OR 6-month upgrade option to add 3 or 6 months to your existing subscription for a discounted price.*

Step 4: Click the UPGRADE NOW button.

Step 5: Add your Black Friday PROMO code, then click CONFIRM UPGRADE.

Step 6: View your confirmation with your Order Summary.

Step 7: Get happy! You not only just saved BIG, but you're also getting even more surprises delivered straight to your door.

Here is our 3-Month POPSUGAR Must Have Exclusive Deal:

Use coupon code MSABF at checkout for $50 off a 3-Month Must Have box subscription, plus get a Juara Tumeric Antioxidant Radiance Mask (Value $38) FREE in your December Must Have box!

Your first box with this subscription will be the December box - I think this is the perfect gift subscription length! (The total cost with this deal will be $59.95 for 3 boxes - about $19.95 a box!)

FYI - this is the BEST 3-month deal, but if you are looking for a different length subscription deal, make sure to watch for POPSUGAR's Black Friday + Cyber Monday deals, too! We'll be posting them as soon as they are live!

It let me use the surprise code twice! So I have 15 months with the 3 months plus the two six months.

Tracy

So, if I had already cancelled my last 6 month sub (last month) and do not have a current sub with them, can I use my same account to get the 3 month deal? I tried it & it says that the promo code is not valid. It also does not have a upgrade feature on my account (at least I can’t find it). Can someone help me out? Should I contact popsugar? I even tried opening a new account & it won’t let me use the code.

Mattie

The promo code for the MSA
Exclusive better than black
Friday 3 month deal expired last night. If you had opened a new sub with it yesterday on your existing account it should’ve worked then you would’ve seen the upgrade option. That’s what I did and am now waiting for the new Black Friday promotion. IF you tried the code last night before the deadline and couldn’t get it to work then I would contact PS and tell them that you tried to checkout and code didn’t work etc…see if they can adjust something as a courteous but idk if they will. Can’t hurt to ask

Tracy

Thank-you both for your help, Mattie & Lunalee. 🙂 I appreciate it and will shoot them a note just in case.

Lunalee

The code expired -Promotion code listed above (“Codes”) are valid from Monday, November 21, 2016 at 12:01 a.m. EST until Thursday, November 24, 2016 at 11:59 p.m. EST or while supplies last.

But there should be more Popsugar Black Friday deals. I don’t know when.

Makenzie

What is the promo code for the upgrade?

So if you sign up for the deal you can upgrade the deal we just signed up for?

Lol nvm didn’t know they doing more deals

Teglar

I keep getting the “popsugar is not here” message. 🙁

Jessica

I wonder why they won’t let us tack another 6 months onto a 3 month gift subscription. Why does it matter who the subscription is for if they’re still making the same amount of money? I bought the 3 month subscription with the code as a gift and would have loved to extend it with more months on Friday. Strange logic….

Agreed – this is the first time that I ordered it as a gift but as a result will be out of luck with the upgrade feature. CS will definitely not get back to me in time.

Kim

If you contact Customer Service they should be able to cancel your gift order so that you can resubscribe, and then take advantage of their Black Friday deal (if you wish). Good luck!

Debbie

Thank you PopSugar! Thank you Liz for giving us the info and explaining everything so well!

Cindy

This has me excited to see what is going to be unveiled on Friday. Hoping it will have something to do with the Limited Edition boxes also. Still holding out on buying the Men’s.

Helen

Oh! I signed up for the 3 month deal, but entered it as a gift so it wouldn’t matter if I forgot to unsubscribe.
Could I cancel it and begin again? I’d love to get Popsugar for more than 3 months.

ALI

I did a gift subscription with the code and was able to get customer service to cancel it so I could make a regular subscription. Reach out of them to try to work something out.

Chelsea

I cancelled and resubbed and yesterday and it let me use the code. Will they cancel my order now because I am not a new subscriber?

Stfne

Liz, do you know whether the November box sold out? The sign up page is showing the current box is December, but of course, the fine print always says you will get a previous month if it is available. Thank you!

Samantha

I emailed them cause I do NOT want the November box (I don’t have a dining table and never host parties in my current apartment), and they said November is sold out and new subs will start with December, including mine, which is what I was hoping!

stfne

Thank you Samantha!

Tara

Well this is just awesome. I snagged the six month deal last year on BF and then canceled and went six months without a subscription. I was waiting for BF to get a longer sub than 3 months, but wow– just signed up with MSA code, and it’s so great we can add it on!! Yay, and thanks Liz!!

Courtney B

Awesome! I was waiting for Black Friday details, but now that I know that I can stack the deals I went ahead and purchased the 3-month with discount. Thanks!

Kiales

Saaaame!!! So happy they did this 🙂

Miccarty

Same, really happy about this!

Lily

Same! So stoked! 🙂

ElizabethJ

Liz,

Is it possible to find out if we will be able to upgrade a gift subscription? I bought the 3 month Better Than Black Friday deal as a gift subscription, and I am hoping that I will be able to upgrade that.

Thanks.

Maria

Same here. Would love to be able to upgrade a gift subscription I just purchased this morning. Keeping my fingers crossed that this will be possible.

Liz Cadman

I just heard back: No, it is not possible to upgrade a current gift subscription and it is not possible to purchase an upgrade as a gift.

Liz Cadman

I will check and get back to you!

nelliebelle1197

My boyfriend Andy D. came through!

Tessa

Lol he’s always the one that answers my requests too. Is he two timing us?! :p

Justina

I do monthly box and tried to upgrade using the code and it is NOT working 🙁

Liz Cadman

I just heard back from POPSUGAR. The MSABF code can only be used for a new subscription. BUT if you want to add on to it with the upcoming Black Friday deals, you can. Hope that makes sense!

Cornflake

I was able to cancel my existing subscription and resub (same email a day all) just a couple minutes later with the code. But maybe they fixed that loophole…

Liz Cadman

I reached out to POPSUGAR and they are checking on this. I’ll have an update soon.

Melanie

Hopefully they will fix it!

Lily

Do they normally do a 6-month deal in May? I really wanted to do the 6-month this month and 6-month again in May, but I suppose it won’t matter if they’ll let us tack onto our existing subscription from now on – which is great!

teresa k

Yay!
I have only gotten mystery boxes from Popsugar previously, but I went ahead and subscribed for the 3 month deal. I was kind of holding out to see if there was a better deal on Friday, but knowing I can upgrade helped me decide to go ahead and subscribe now.

Ali

It doesn’t appear to work with gift subscriptions.

Gina

I’m thinking you have to wait until Black Friday for it to work with the upgrade.

Ali

Mo there are those below that are able to partially complete the process. I don’t even have an “upgrade” link when I go under subscriptions. The only difference is mine is a often subscription and some below referred to having a regular subscription.

Fran

Oh yay! Looking forward to the BF deal now. I also took advantage of Liz’s deal.

SMZ

I LOVE that Popsugar did this. It is always nice when companies take care of their existing loyal customers instead of only offering deals to new ones! THANKS!

Teri

Yay! No more FOBO!

Maria

I also just tried this and the promo code isn’t working.

Liz Cadman

I just heard back from POPSUGAR. The MSABF code can only be used for a new subscription. BUT if sign up with the MSABF code, you will be able to add on to it with the upcoming Black Friday deals. Hope that makes sense!

Mattie

I’m a little confused. You say 3 month OR 6 month – does that mean we can go ahead and get 6 month deal by adding the 3 month code? I’m sure this is suppose to be simple but I’m in a Black Friday haze I guess – Does this possibly also mean I can go ahead and get the 3 month today and then add another 6 months on Friday for a total of 9 months?

Liz Cadman

Sorry for any confusion. If you sign up for a new account with the MSABF code now, you will be able to add on to the length of that subscription with upcoming Black Friday deals. Hope that helps!

Mattie

Yay! Thanks so much Liz!! ❤️

Mattie

I think I figured mine out. My original sub was a “gift” and there was no option for upgrade to that so I created a new sub within my same account (I’ll get dupe December boxes) and took advantage of the current 3 month offer. Now the upgrade option appears so HOPEFULLY on Friday I can add another Black Friday deal for 6 months and have a total of 9 months 🙂

Really hoping they let us use multiple Black Friday codes otherwise I just cut off my nose to spite my face

These deals have me too excited! I should’ve already done my holiday grocery shopping but I’m glued to MSA instead ☺️

Michelle

Looks like it’s not letting you use the better than Black Friday code 🙁
