MSA Quarterly Subscriptions Open For Next Quarter + Coupon!
Just a heads up - subscriptions are open again for the My Subscription Addiction Quarterly box! (If you sign up today, your subscription will start with the second box).
If you are new to Quarterly, use coupon code FIRSTBOX10 to save $10 off your first box. (Regularly $50 a box). Good news (I love this about Quarterly) you will not be charged until the box ships.
(To get free shipping, make sure to click "Buy Subscription" - you can cancel anytime. And you won't be charged until the box ships.
And a quick background on why the first box sold out and went into wait list mode:
When we were planning out the box, we had to decide on the number of boxes we'd be shipping at the beginning of scouting for products. (That way we could let vendors know exactly how many units we needed). Because we needed to have an exact subscriber count over a month before we shipped, the box went into wait list mode shortly after the first spoiler was posted. (Hopefully that gives some background!)

I am so glad that I was able to sign up for the second box. Missed out on the first one and wow – I would have loved absolutely everything in it.
Can’t wait to see your collection in December!

OMG Liz!!!! The scarf is amazing and so soft. I had never heard of that brand of lip gloss but I am so in love with it.

Was there a scarf in this box, and where did you see it? Has a list of items been posted?

Neeeeedddddd my box. Where is my box?!?! No tracking. wahhhhh…. Need my MSA box. lol.. This has been the worst wait… I cant wait to see what you got for us…. Maybe the mail man will have it today.

I emailed them and they say the tracking will be provided today. These companies when they ship, all they did was put a label on, the box does not actually make it out the door until days later.

Debated buying the first box, went to buy and missed out, looks like I am waiting for Nov. I love your site because it gives reviews and feedback as well as coupon codes. I can’t believe I even debated your box.

Liz, I stumbled across My Subscription Addiction and not only am I liking the reviews and boxes but am addicted to your website. I find myself checking a couple times a day to see if you have posted anything. Thank you so much. I wish all boxes took the time and the customer to heart like you do. Wish I could have received your box but the wait list thing did not work but I am already signed for the next box. Again, thank you .

I totally missed the boat on #1. Then, I signed up on the waitlist and received a message about an opening spot – nearly immediately went to the site and they sold out! I was so bummed. So, when I came home today, I was super psyched to see this. Thanks for the great start to the weekend!

I missed out on the first box but have just signed up for the next MSA box. I just received the Chef Ludo box and am disappointed. I had signed up before I even knew it was a grilling box theme. Felt it a little late in the season but was excited to get his first box as I thought it would be great. The box had a custom pot holder which was nice and heavy duty (had Fisher Paykel embroidered on it), 2 jars of Chef Ludo’s seasoning (about $6.66 per jar), a grilling book by Fisher Paykel (not sure of value as it appears like a promotional piece) and a very nice grilling spatula (also a Fisher Paykel tool as it is in the grill book). Found this 5 piece set with an apron online for $134.00 so about a $27.00 if you don’t count the apron. Box included a brief note by the Chef regarding the items and a recipe which wasn’t even for the grill. I signed up for the Chef Ludo box as I find him to be creative with some spunk. He is now a spokesperson for Fisher Paykel and that showed. I also was disappointed in the true value of the box. I might have not felt so disappointed if he had put in the full set of spices or at least his own cookbook. I am now going to cancel.

Does anyone know if there are any coupons for existing subscribers?

I just subscribed and think I want to do a gift subscription for my mom and mother-in-law. I don’t see anywhere to add another subscription. I suppose I can sign up with another email and that will save me $10 but it would be easier to keep track of all under one profile. I see a heading that says gift invoices but no where to do the ordering of gifts. HELP?

I am so excited to see my MSA1 box shipped!! I have taken a break from all recurring subscriptions until I work through my stash, except for yours of course, dear Liz!
Thank you for your attention to detail, it is so appreciated.

Hey Liz!
Any chance you’ll be doing a full review/spoiler post in the next few days since the box has shipped??? The curiosity is killing me :)!
Reply
Liz Cadman
Yep -early next week! 🙂

Cindy
Doesn’t early next week end today (Tuesday)? Isn’t Wednesday (tomorrow) the middle of next week?
…..a little anxious here…. 😉

Are the boxes shipping in waves? There’s nowhere in your account on their site to see if it actually shipped. I just got the charge email but that was 3 days ago. I’m trying hard to go spoiler free but that will be thought since it’s a safe bet mine hasn’t shipped yet and others will get theirs early next week. For some reason, no matter the sub or company, Vegas is apparently a shipping no man’s land.

Thank you for posting this Liz! I was on the wait list but didn’t receive an email from quarterly that this box was available, but thanks to your post I was able to subscribe! Can’t wait til November!

I mis read. You charge when the box ships. Gotta sign up! :-))))

If I Signed up today would I be charged today or when it ships? I get paid early Oct. Thanks! 🙂
Reply
Brandy
Ahhhh. I always get paid at the very beginning of the month and by the 5th-6th I am done with my monthly subs with finances. Oh… I SO hope that this will be available early next month and not sold out. Fingers crossed, wish one could be saved for me.

They do not charge your cc until the day before it ships. I just got charged yesterday.

I was too late to get box #1, but just subscribed! So excited. Thanks for the code Liz!

I signed up but was charged shipping… I do want the subscription but it didn’t even ask.
Reply
Tara B
That is because you bought one and instead of subscribing. If you are only buying one it charges $10.00 shipping as you check out. You can cancel it and then it subscribe instead of buy. If you only want it the one time, you can cancel after you get the box. So, go ahead and cancel it and try again. 🙂

Thank you!!

Why did I think there was no extra charge for shipping? It took the coupon but charged $8 for shipping. Is this correct?
Reply
Liz Cadman
If you sign up for a subscription there should be no shipping charge. If you purchase one box there will be.

I signed up for a subscription and was chared 8.00 for shipping.

I think I missed a description. What type of box is this — beauty? home? fashion? Any examples or descriptions of what was included last year?
Reply
Tara B
Robin… here you go… If you subscribe to the newsletter, then you were the first to hear the news – today marks the launch of the My Subscription Addiction subscription box with Quarterly!
Through subscription boxes I’ve been able to sample hundreds of brands and products, and discovered so many new favorites. I’ve also learned a lot about what type of products work best for boxes, and now I get to put that knowledge to use in crafting the My Subscription Addiction Quarterly Box!
What you can expect from the box:
•It will be a mix of beauty, lifestyle and fashion items.
•My picks will all be ingredient conscious. For example, if I include a mascara in the box, it will be free of ingredients like parabens, or phthalates. If I include a candle, it will be free of ingredients like paraffin wax or synthetic fragrances.
•This is a box geared toward women.
•The box ships 4 times a year – the first month is September.

I just signed up for a second sub. I wish I have 2 sept boxes based on your 2 spoilers. But I was lucky to get your sept box because I never saw your June announcement. I was traveling for work and stupid Hilton wants $9.95 plus tax for wifi! Cannot wait for my box. Thanks.
