Didn’t Popsugar say they wouldn’t be offering LE boxes just cobranded and occasional surprise boxes? The men’s LE info makes it seem like there’ll be 2018 holiday LE boxes coming out again.

Great question! We’re not 100% sure yet, but since this box is so popular and so great for gifting, we really hope it comes back. I’ll update the post so the language is a little more clear. 🙂
