POPSUGAR Must Have X RueLaLa Intro Box + Subscription Sale!

those links did not work

Where’s an October spoiler?!

can you do this if you are already signed up? I have subscreibed for a couple months now, but I would like this intro box/deal.

For those of you that are so angry to see repeat items, realize that YOU are not Popsugars target demographic for this box. Or any box with the same goods we have seen time and time again.

It is literally called an introduction box, and Popsugar is obviously using a third party site to reach a broader / new audience. So we all have the umbrella and the bowl and the swan floats and the stamp set, etc. It doesn’t mean that they aren’t nice or enjoyable items. A person who has never experienced Popsugar may just very well be impressed and excited to receive these goodies.

Don’t want doubles and triples of things you’ve already received? Cool; skip the introduction boxes, and skip the mystery boxes which are literally advertised as compilations of distributed goods. I’m all for people expressing their opinions on the quality of a fresh new box. But to whine about repeats in these clearance boxes is ridiculous.

When my order from the PS 75% off summer sale finally showed up a month after I ordered them, two cosmetics had clearly been returns which had been opened by the prior customer, restocked, and then sent to me as new goods. They were not new, and were in fact dried out (and used by a prior customer!) The smith & cult also had its seal undone and showed a great deal of scratches and scuffs to the polish cap, even though it was bundled in bubble wrap in my box. It was the first time I had ordered from them. They are no longer the quality company they apparently used to be.

My latest 3 months at 20% off goes through October and it was $94 with tax. So you get the intro box for $11. It’s a good deal, but I’m going to keep my current subscription, see what’s spoiled for November and potentially buy it, but plan to hold out for Black Friday. I hope the deals are as great as last year!

While I do need an umbrella…my demon dog decided to play with mine the other day…I will never, ever, ever, EVER buy another mystery box without full spoilers. Not after the Gilt city debacle. I might bite once the contents are revealed since I’m not a PS subscriber and I think it’s a good deal w/ a 3 month sub, but that’s entirely dependent on what those items are…it’s possible they’re different from the GC boxes since neither the book nor the umbrella were in them. We shall see. I hope this doesn’t lead to another post full of unhappy comments, entertaining as that was.

I’m kind of confused how this works. If I do the intro box + 3 month subscription, is that an intro box and then October-December boxes? If that is how it works, isn’t that a pretty good deal for anyone who is looking at starting or re-starting their subscription? I’m sure most of the Intro box items can be donated or gifted.

I would have to see more spoilers. I bought 2 each of two of the Gilt boxes for gifts. I wouldn’t want any duplicates of those boxes.

The starter box + 3 more months is a great price at $105 if the starter isn’t full of really old repeats.

BUT 20% off a 3-month sub is also great. Has anyone tried the school20 code?

I do like the umbrella…. 😕

Popsugar is a huge blog/news site as well, not just sub boxes, in regards to the book comments. Anyway, it is like the twilight zone with these OLD, OLD items. Why don’t they make a beginner box for sale on their site for 1st time or one-off buys? Using them for mystery boxes on and off is crazy if there hasn’t been anything new in them for over a year…. It is just plain MEAN at this point! 😂

Apparently PopSugar does not monitor this site unless we are in the minority—–which I doubt. The purchasing agent must have over calculated the number of boxes that would be sold with so much inventory left.

Did anyone actually read that silly book? Didn’t even bother to pop the cover. It went immediately into the donation pile-at least I’ll get a tax brake from it. I don’t see her as a successful business person. Just look at the comments here to guess why.

I think this is good, they are trying to reach new people. We are not the audience for this box. 🙂

Won’t be buying any Popsugar ‘special boxes’ until reviews show up that indicate all of the old stuff is finally gone!

Really, how much of this stuff do they think we want?

What is going on with PopSugar lately… I have nightmares about hats, wire baskets, and lint rollers! Give the mystery boxes that are not a mystery a rest until forever.. They use to be sooo much fun… I’m still waiting for the Gilt box that took 3 weeks to be sent out and the smart post is a joke. My box left Friday 22nd and I would get until Monday Oct 2nd. It stopped 15 places and in the end FX will drive by my house and drop it at the USPS to deliver it anyway. Ibhave had stuff come quicker from China. The thing is I would love the option to pay a few dollars extra to get it here in half the time. I ordered that darn thing on Sept 6th.
Ok sorry for the crying! I mad at myself for ordering it in the first place. I can’t give anybody these items for Christmas either because they tons of the same %&#¿ last 🎄….

Really? Wow.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…..no.

I am tempted, I only have one umbrella and I could use another actually. I missed the Gilt issue…scared to ask!

Thankfully I didn’t get the gilt disaster box but thanks to that mess there’s no way I’m buying this one!! I actually don’t have one of those umbrellas or a swan, but if I need one I’m sure I can find it on swap instead of in this mystery box!

I have 5 of these umbrellas and that is AFTER swapping away at least 3!

Seriously, who does the buying for these folks that they grossly overbought so many of their items, e.g. umbrellas, swans, runners, stowaway pallets, winky luxes, emoji napkins, hats, sarongs and skinny scarves, mugs, red plastic purses, wire baskets, kids stamp kits, glitter stars on toothpicks, etc. etc. etc……???

I like that these are the spoilers. Everyone got eleventy billion of the HB umbrella in the mystery boxes last holiday season and the book wouldn’t entice an existing subscriber. This is way better than 1 shiny awesome spoiler & 6 mystery albatrosses.

there’s no way no no no. I’m not doing it this time.

Oh hell no!!!!!

The intro box is probably great for anyone new to Popsugar. Surely there can’t possibly be anyone like that reading this blog?
I doubt I’m the only one with double, triple and quadruple Popsugar items.
Easy pass. Not even the tiniest FOMO.
