Ive noticed that. Is there anyway one can be done here? or would it break some rule?
or it anyone would start a page/blog etc for it and we can do it there?:D
Bit disappointed with the FB page -its all about that co-buying place and as said people selling items not got in boxes. Would be great to find somewhere specifically for the boxes...??

Please see this post by Purplebutterfly last week:

Firstly, I need to ask you all NOT to discuss swapping products on the forum or we will find the thread shut down and locked.

It is against MSE policy to allow personal details to be given out on this site and I was personally warned about this when I offered to swap something on the Grabbit board.

If anyone wishes to swap items, you will need to either create a swap/MSE group on Facebook or privately exchange email addresses (although this is against the forum rules, it has been done many times on the comping boards)

I am not trying to be a killjoy, I am simply trying to keep this thread alive and kicking and within MSE guidelines.

As to your question re one month subscriptions, most of them are rolling month subscriptions and therefore you would need to cancel after you received your first box to ensure you weren't charged again the following month.

Hope this helps Gx2 x

Im tempted to buy just ONE of the other boxes. If i did just one month sub, would i need to contact them to cancel it any further boxes/payments be taken or would it just lapse?
(shouldnt have started in here -its addictive!!!! )

I daren't look at LIB when it comes up, but I did succumb to a one off box from Betrousse. I bought the organic one, 5 full-sized products for £17 plus p&p (instead of £72).

Beauty boxes are so addictive. I had planned to cut down to Amarya, and LuxBox, and did (temporarily). Trouble was the 6 month SSB offer came up (I discount as paid upfront), plus the Jolie £5 off, so again succumbed. :rotfl:

I will still probably cut back down to 2 (not counting the already paid for SSB), as would rather spend my money on another People Tree goody bag.

thanks grannyx2 - I was just about to reply re:swapping and you saved me a job :beer:

I haven't actually looked at that swapping page on FB for ages so if it's rubbish, I'll remove the link from the OP. I posted on it once to see if anyone had one of those purple lipglosses available but never got a reply so never bothered going back to the page.

If anyone wants to set up a swapping group on Facebook, I'll happily add a link to it on this thread.

Missli - I've added the Betrousse link to the Op, thanks hun

My apologies for bringing up *whispers* swapping, i didnt offer to swop, just wondered if anyone else would set one up?

ooooh the Betrousse is a new one to me!! Is it worth the £17 do you think?

It depends on what you like. I like nice bath stuff, so would be pleased with either the bath/shower gel (or salts!), and soap. I currently use an old dried out mascara for colouring my roots, so am interested in trying a dedicated one.

The facial oil is alone worth £31, and is something I am interested in, plus am intrigued by the hair mist.

Its not pure organic, more of a natural ingredient type box. For me is worth the money.

Im looking at the LIB box, sorry to keep hassling -but the goodies in this, is it worth it??
Has everyone been happy with this one?

Missli

^^^^^ Should my previous post be edited in white? Not sure if I should, as is the same box for everyone, clearly shown on their page.

Edit: Have done so

Im looking at the jolie one -have i been blind or is it the only one without a discount code?
Have googled and FB'd and looked thru this thread but cant find any?

I doubt Jolie Box will do another code this month - there was a £5 offer code emailed to some people for the birthday box but it was single-use only I'm afraid.
