Email from Matter (merged)

totally forgot about this till I got the email the other day...wonder what'll be in the box this time around...is it October yet??

I sent a message today asking whether current subscribers will get the box that comes out after October (ie - The second box, where October is the first box, not including the pilot box!). I was told that the list is a growing list, so I assume we will not need to reapply to get the 2nd or subsequent boxes. I thought I'd share in case other people thought, like I did, that you had to reapply to get the box that comes out after October.
Someone tell me if I'm right or wrong based on my email!

Subject: Next Matter Box (box number 2)

Message: Hi, I was just wondering whether people who have subscribed to get the 1st box are able to get the 2nd one. I noticed the announcement on the home page says if you sign up now then you can get the 2nd edition, do current 'subscribers' get this box as well, or is it a one-box-per-person thing?
Thanks

Hi Shane

No, it's a growing list, so everyone who's registered up until yesterday at about 6:30 (which I see includes you) will get the next one.

Excellent thanks for clearing it up for us. So everyone who is registered will receive the 1st real box in October, thats something to look forward too :beer:

In the Sunday Mail there are details of the Royal Mail 'Matter Box' which is sent out free of charge to anyone who signs up for it.

This box should contain at least 14 samples with an alleged value of £20.

To sign up go on matterbox.co.uk

Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I thought it looks good.

You meant matterbox.co.uk right?

Looks interesting, thanks for the link.

from the site:

Newsflash:

Everyone wants a Matter box, but we make the editions in fixed (limited) quantities, which means the next edition, due in October, is now closed to new subscribers, unfortunately

However, if you join now you will be first to receive the next edition, which we're working on now and will be available soon we'll let you know when it's coming.

there's an ongoing thread about matterbox here:

http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1123019&page=3

the information about the october box being closed to new subscribers is new, thanks for that, as is the info about it being advertised in the mail, so thanks for that too.
