My January PopSugar Must Have Box arrived today and although I knew what was in it, I tore right into it (like always). And like always, I cursed FedEx Smart Post for being so slow.
This month’s box weighed 5lbs and included items to get “a fresh start on that fitness resolution while still finding time to indulge in some warm treats”.
The box was super full this month, which always makes it look nice and neat when you open it.
PopSugar does have one of my favorite information “cards”. It’s not a card, it’s a booklet. It’s got so much fun information about each one of the products. But I won’t bore you with pictures of each page. You get the idea.
And here’s what was inside:
Must Have Fitness:
~Stott Pilates Stability Ball (65CM)($38.99): Meh. I feel like most people who want one of these already have one. I even have one! I may use this one in my (home) office though to try and improve my posture. It can’t hurt right? There is also a code for 50% off a pilates workout dvd, but I am not including that in the value of the box since I won’t use it.
Must Have Fashion
~Remix TimeBomb Watch ($49.95): I cannot find the exact watch online (none of them have numbers online?), but this is close enough. I think it’s a PopSugar exclusive watch. I don’t ever wear a watch (ever), so I am not sure what I am going to do with this? I mean it’s cute and all and I really like the color, but it’s not really me. However, in an effort to try new things, maybe I will give it a go? Maybe.
Must Have Beauty
~Epicuren Lip Balm ($9): I am completely obsessed with lip balm and am super excited to give this a try. I love the Epicuren lotion that was in the luxury box and am guessing that I am going to love this too. I wouldn’t be sad if PopSugar included a lip balm in every box! How about we put the Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment in the box next month?
Must Have Food:
~Popba Hot Chocolate on a Stick ($5.98 – $2.99/each): I actually saw these on a friend’s Instagram a few weeks ago and I totally wanted to try them. I was so excited when I saw that they were in the January box! The box included Dark Chocolate and Milk Chocolate and I am pretty sure I am having the Dark Chocolate tonight. Move over Swiss Miss. I’m having my hot chocolate on a stick tonight.
~Jet-Puffed Mallow Bits ($1.49): I am guessing these relate to the Hot Chocolate on a Stick? I don’t want to mess up my gourmet hot chocolate with marshmallows, but you know who is going to love these? L. I almost bought them at the store the other day, but something stopped me. Maybe I somehow knew? Regardless, L is going to be thrilled!
Special Extras:
~ThinkThin Bars $5.67 ($1.69-$1.99/each): While I am not overly excited by these, I will for sure eat them and like them way better than the KIND Bars we got back in July. But like back in July, I do wish we would have gotten three different brands of bars to try.
~Castegram Code ($15): This is a code for $15 off your purchase at Castegram. I have to tell you, I have bought a few iPhone cases from here (and my mom has one too) and I LOVE them. I’ve gotten tons of compliments on them too. The cases aren’t crazy expensive either ($39.95 for an iPhone 5 case).
All totaled, I came up with a value of $126.08 for this box, which is way more than the $35 cost of the box. Do I love this box? No, not like I loved the September box anyways. But to me it is worth the $35, so I am happy. Plus, it doesn’t have tea (*), which makes me even happier ;).
Do you subscribe to PopSugar? What’d you think of this month’s box? If you don’t subscribe and want to, click here and I believe you can get signed up for February’s box?And don’t forget to use code REFER5 for $5 off your first month.
(*) B finished all the tea from the December box and is totally obsessed with the Bodum mugs. He uses them every single day. I think they may be his favorite subscription box item ever.
