Birchbox ~ Limited Home Box! November 2012
Birchbox just launched their first ever Limited Edition Home Box! This is a one time only box – not a subscription, but I think it would be interesting to see a home subscription line from Birchbox as well. Hopefully this pop-up shop hits a home run.
The Cost: $58 (value of this box is over $140)
The Products:
“This limited edition box is jam-packed with products for your kitchen, dining room, and beyond. Whether you’re a beginner cook or an expert chef, you’ll love custom Birchbox Recipe Cards (complete with recipes from three top food bloggers), the snazzy Core Bamboo Spatula Set, and Quirky’s smart Stem citrus spritzer. We’ve also included Dean & Deluca’s Rosemary and Sabatino & Co. Roma’s Truffle Sea Salt to amp up all your dishes. There are chalkboard placecards and eye-catching cocktail napkins for your next soiree, plus an Antica Farmacista Home Ambiance Fragrance to set the mood. Use Paperless Post’s flat-printed cards to send a sweet note, then use the included promo to design your own stationery online. And you’ll have fun using your P.S.-I Made This… DIY Kit to design fun ikat fabric napkins using these Mydrap cotton napkin rolls and other one-of-a-kind creations. Every box includes either ultra-mod Jonathan Adler Playing Cards (colors may vary) or whimsical Chambre de Sucre Rainbow Sugar Crystals—choose your option from the drop-down menu.”

KLUTCHclub ~ November

This months’ theme is the “Energy Box”. I should have brought it to work with me, because right now I need some! Here is this month’s product guide.
Problem: Falling victim to the snooze button and 2PM slump with zero energy to hit the gym. (or in my case, just to stay awake)
How we solved it: Skip the caffeine IV, because we’ve put together health and fitness products to wake you in the morning, refresh your appearance and leave you skipping to the office to annoy your coworkers with all that new found energy.
Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts ~ Seeds with a gourmet nutty taste that is simply delicious. (We’ll see about that later.)
Wyman’s Blueberry Juice ~ 100% blueberry juice with no added sugar.
Pssssst Dry Shampoo ~ A dry shampoo that transforms dull dirty hair without washing.
Shakeology ~ Daily shake to help your body eliminate toxins, while better absorbing essential nutrients.
Acacia Strength one Lengthen Workout Sampler DVD ~ Workout DVD that offers a mix of disciplines to maximize results in minimum time.
Juil $50 gift card. (sandals start at $100)
Green Tea Hawaii ~ 3 single servings & 1 single serve coffee ~ A powdered green tea drink loaded with amino acids and antioxidants.
Nature’s Gate Pomegranate Sunflower Cleansing Bar ~ Vegetable-based bar soap featuring antioxidant rich pomegranate and sunflower extracts.(LOVE Pomegranate and this smells divine!)
GNU Bar ~ Fiber packed bars that taste more like dessert than a healthy snack.
Amino Vital Endurance Packet ~A quick-absorbing formula that delivers energy and in-workout recovery when the day calls for going long.
Nature’s Gate body wash and lotion packets. This must be a bonus because they aren’t listed on the product guide or on the box on the website. 🙂 Doesn’t hurt my feelings. LOL
I love this month’s box more than the others. I can’t wait to try EVERYTHING in it. To get your own box go to www.klutchclub.com

Tips For Finding Your Perfect Sample Box

Get the subscription that fits your needs by following these steps before you click “buy.”
Read the Buzz:
You can learn a lot from a service’s Facebook page. Customers frequently upload photos of their boxes. Discounts, giveaways, and deals for first time subscribers are usually announced her as well.
Scan Beauty Blogs:
“Openings” ~ YouTube videos of customers unpacking their sample boxes ~ are common online and offer a good idea of what to expect.
Don’t Skip the Quiz!
Most services ask you to fill out a questionnaire in order to send you appropriate products. Answer honestly and thoughtfully.
Order Early:
Kits are often in limited supply and typically run out two weeks after they become available.
Check the Fine Print:
Many subscription services automatically reenroll you, and you may or may not be able to cancel before the subscription ends. With few exceptions, shipping is free and returns are not permitted, unless a box arrives damaged.
Pop Sugar Must Have Bag ~ November

Here is another month of Pop Sugar’s Must Have Bag. Umm but for the second month in a row a bag is missing. *shrugs* No biggy for me. I still love my “Bag” and everything in it.
Along with the goodies in the pictures below I also got something else cool. A coupon code for a FREE T-shirt from Style Mint.com. I haven’t ordered mine yet, but I peeked at the site. Price range from $15 on up.
I also got a $30 coupon for Canvas Pop. It’s a company that turns your photos into a canvas.

I got one other item not pictured. (I forgot to take a pic before I put them away) Snow & Graham Thank You Notes. Thank you cards are always nice to have around. I also love sending and receiving snail mail. 🙂
What a combo! After eating my Stonewall Kitchen donuts I can do yoga to burn them off! After yoga I can cook something using La Boite Spice Mixes.

This Gorjana Parker Bracelet is going to make an awesome gift! It’s a “popular Hollywood brand”, but not my style. It retails for around $65 per the website. HOLY COW! Maybe I will keep it.

Mor Lip Macarons lip gloss. It’s french Vanilla. It smells divine. I can’t stop sniffing it! Price of this baby is $10.
As with last month and the month before I’m totally impressed and beyond happy with my bag/box. It’s on the spendy side, $35, but so far it’s been worth it. I love the card they include with the box to explain why they picked each item – after I read it, everything makes sense for November! Plus this box has a retail value of $135 (not including the Stylemint or Canvaspop codes). What did you think of this month’s box?
If you want your own bag go to www.popsugar.com/musthave and use coupon code REFERFRIENDS to get $5 off your first bag.
