I was seriously contemplating getting a box for my daughters’ teacher and exactly what l I needed to take the plunge! Any ideas when the Women’s Winter box will be shipping?
oh yea think i got one for myself too! yippee!

I ordered mine the first day it was available (I think Nov 2nd) and just received mine this past Saturday first thing in the morning. You know these dang things take like a week and a half via SmartPost (I’m east coast)… so if you haven’t gotten a shipment notification, just keep in mind, you’re looking at another week or more. (Not to sound pessimistic – it’s worth the wait for me!)

Thanks, no rush. Just hoping it gets here before school let’s out. Glad you like yours!! 😊

I ordered one when the throw was the spoiler and still have not received the box. I ordered another one to split up as bday gifts next year and send the Dec box to my aunt directly and it is still a good deal for me. $108 and I can make 5 gifts out of it.

I didn’t know about the Facebook convo because I don’t have a Facebook account, but I e-mailed them yesterday. Typically, I’ve found with POPSUGAR that it’s worth asking them, and usually the answer has been yes to whatever I’ve asked (never anything crazy). Well, I got my answer back, and sure enough, it’s the same as what’s on Facebook. So if you’re thinking of emailing anyway since their answer on Facebook has said to email them if you have more questions, the answer is still no. My e-mail was politely worded, but I did let them know that somehow since I found out about them in September, I’ve dropped over $600 with them (1 mini box, 3 boxes with and without coupons, 2 LE boxes, 2 mystery boxes, and 12 months on Black Friday). They don’t care about that. I do maintain that I’m happy with their customer service overall, but this seems not cool. I get that it’s a great deal and all, and I’m happy I got my boxes before they sold out, but the only stores I shop at are pretty great about honoring price reductions and special offers after the fact.

***SIDE NOTE to all of you who had ordering fiascos lately and have ended up asking about any kind of refunds and then had to reorder: CHECK YOUR BANK ACCOUNT because my refund was not put in my account, but the new charge did come through. It’s been two weeks so any financial institution should at least show a pending credit by now.

Agreed, I was a little disappointed that they wouldn’t be willing to extend the promotion, especially given that every day I check, there has been a delay in shipping (I got a notification on the 21st, and it was supposed to be here last Friday, then today, and now tomorrow). I also signed up for 15 months with the Black Friday & Cyber Monday sales and bought several mystery boxes.

The promo code doesn’t seem to be working for me. Anyone else have that problem?

Didn’t work for me either.

I know why it didn’t work for me, I did it wrong. I didn’t add a new monthly sub to my order. I recently signed up so it looks like I won’t be getting a LE Winter box anymore.

Lesson learned Popsugar:

Don’t buy any special edition LE until you offer a discount or other GWP.

Agreed! I wish I would have waited.

I tried that for the summer box, and it sold out. On the bright side, I still had $100. 😂

Amy

Having $100 is surely a bright side. Plus, if you only want certain things from a box, eBay is your friend!

Cindy

Well, that threw me over the edge….. I had already ordered the men’s box and was contemplating which to order for this deal. I have far more men to buy gifts for than women….

The decision was made for me because the men’s is sold out. So I got the women’s (mostly to use for gifts for others) and sent the free box as a Christmas gift for an out of town friend. I think she will really like it.

So, another Christmas gift crossed off my list. I am doing well in that department this year!

Just picked up this deal and sent both boxes to a friend for her birthday. Between the boxes, she’s bound to love a bunch of the items and can gift anything she doesn’t want. Win-win.

I purchased every limited box full price, it would have been nice if they offered something like this earlier 🙁

I caved and bought the women’s box and giving away that December box as a gift and was thinking of doing the same for the men’s box to gift to my husband and get a 2nd extra December box to gift. I followed the instructions and the deal came out perfectly but now I notice I’m signed up for an extra subscription in my subs tab. I already have 14 credits added from my black Friday deals. How do I avoid having this start charging me as a second must have box sub in the future?

Melissa

Argh, likely to cave on this one. When I saw the Holiday LE review, I wished I had ordered it for my niece.
But I did not bite because I ordered one for her last year and there was nothing in it appropriate for her/her lifestyle.

Already am getting the December box but love everything in it and can use a few items for gifts

Amy

Help! Did anyone get charged $8 in taxes? And, also, did anyone get this message?
Your shopping cart contains a subscription that autorenews until cancelled as provided in the Must Have. I haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Items are in my cart because I am not sure these two things are correct. I did use the GIFT code.
Thank you.

Victoria

I was charged tax also. During the checkout it gave me the option to choose the December box as a one time gift. Hope that helps.

Reply ButtonReply

Kim

How and where did that appear?

Amy

Thanks! I did get the December box free, but it appears I need to remember to cancel the subscription, or I will be billed for the next box. It’s a good thing I can be home to get the mail these days … my husband will be surprised to see all these sub boxes coming! Liz’s reviews make me want to buy so many of these treats!

Nicole

I finally caved and grabbed this deal…I don’t really NEED anything in these boxes but I love pretty much everything in the Women’s LE. The December box looks pretty good (although the necklace will either be gifted or up for swap.) I honestly just couldn’t resist such a great deal. I do feel bad for the people who paid full price for these though. I know I would be upset if I had purchased them before and would be kicking myself for not waiting.

Wow, thanks for letting us know about this deal! Super happy right now, purchased a box for the hubby and I get something nice for myself too 🙂

I feel like they do this a little backwards. They might have more luck selling out if they offer special deals like this at the very beginning, before releasing any spoilers, like a limited pre-sale. It works for music festivals. Coachella’s advance tickets sell out MONTHS before they even announce the line up.
Of course, this only works if the spoilers are a hit. Reward those who take the most risk by giving them a bonus box/item or discount. Those who wait for spoilers or to see the box review then pay full price, but at least they know they’ll like the box. Then no one can complain about paying full price, since everyone had the opportunity to get a deal first.

Marion

Sweeeeet! I was seriously considering buying the Women’s LE for the Pehr throw alone, but couldn’t justify. I do really like the home items from the December box, so this is the perfect deal to make me part with my $$$.

PopSugar’s done it again.

Suzanne

One question – if I cancel the Must Have subscription before it ships, will it leave a credit for me to use on a future box? I already have December coming to me and I’m just wondering if there’s a way to save the credit from this one.

stfne

They don’t allow you to skip months.

Suzanne

I went ahead and ordered a women’s box. I’ll be swapping most of the items, but I’m excited about the chocolates and the diffuser. I may keep the blanket too, but I’m not a big fan of the color. It just seems like too good of a deal to pass up.

I bought a LE Winter box for her when it launched, but I am happy to have this option if I want a second box 😉

I would like to see December spoilers first, though.

Reply ButtonReply

Meg

Hmmm, any chance we will see the full December spoilers before this code expires? I was thinking of getting another women’s box for gifts but it kind of depends on what’s in the December box.

Megan

I know complaining is annoying, but I can’t help but feel upset about buying both boxes full price right away 🙁

A small gift for being a yearly subscription holder would make me smile! Yes. I feel the same way!

Same! And I haven’t even received the 2 boxes I paid in full price yet… 🙁

I know. I get so pouty when they do this haha. But I have to remind myself that sales in stores work the same way, and that’s the risk I took by purchasing at full price. *sigh*

Love this! Since I am new to Popsugar and they took all my money around Black Friday, should I go ahead and jump on this deal or do you guys think there will be a better deal on Gilt or later on?

Reply ButtonReply

Cornflake

Jump on the deal. The men’s box someone said is sold out, and this is the best it will get anyway, going by posts from past years.

Reply ButtonReply

Renee

I see a lot of unhappy comments, but how is this different from when you buy a sweater or purchase steaks that go on sale a couple weeks later? There is always a risk associated with both sides. What if you had waited and lost out on the box you wanted? Conversely, the company wants to move merchandise that hasn’t sold out. This is not unfair, it is just business.

Reply ButtonReply

stfne

I don’t know about food purchases, but most stores will retroactively honor sales or discounts if the price drops on an item you purchased within a certain time period prior to the sale.

Reply ButtonReply

Judy

I was just going to say the same thing! I use the app Paribus. It looks for instances just like that (where a sweater I bought online went down in price since purchasing and they refund you the price difference). I love it since it does the work for you, but you can do it the old fashion way too. Most stores honor price reductions.

Lauren

I think for me the objection is I put down 200$ with one spoiler per box. Now others get full spoilers and a free 138$ msrp gift? One or the other I could get over. I also ordered these pretty quickly after they came out and still don’t have boxes in hand.

Id settle for PS just kicking me a free extra cookie mix from the Dec box. Its not even really about the December box itself.

KarenG

I’m assuming incentives are being offered because the LE boxes are not selling as swiftly. That being said, I purchased both boxes when they were released. I understand the bummed feeling for those of us who jumped before the additional offer.
Wouldn’t it be nice if PS just sent out December boxes to us as as surprise for being early adapters 🙂 One can hope for a Christmas miracle!

Marina

I can only hope they did…

I just bought the men’s box and used the code. How do I know whether it took? The checkout page made no mention of it. 😬

Reply ButtonReply

Suzanne

Did you add both the December and the Men’s box to your cart? If so, it should total $139.95 and then after you add the code, it takes the total down to $100.

Reply ButtonReply

Amy

It took my total to $100, but it added $8 for taxes. Did that happen to you as well?

CreativelySwank

Thank you so much for explaining this. I was stumped. I’ve also spent the day traveling, so I’m a bit brain dead. Not enough however to pass up this deal!

Helen

Oh no! I messed up. 😧 I was so excited to buy a men’s box I didn’t read the instructions to add a December box.
What can I do? I would never have bought the LE without the freebie.
Aaagh!

aldama

Wow. This is really a bummer for those of us who’ve already purchased the boxes.

Beth

Agreed!

I hope Popsugar realizes by doing this that they are sending disincentives to everyone who is usually an early adopter buying their LE boxes. Lesson learned!
