Okie doke...thanks for the info!
I've been a subscriber from the beginning, and I actually liked even the first box, but I wasn't locked into the "$150 value!!!!" thing lot of people were. All I cared about was getting stuff that I thought were worth at least $35 *to me* regardless of their actual retail value (to use Sample Society as an example: So they sent out a $26 double-ended lip pencil. Great, except for the fact that I hate lip pencils and will never use it. Or Glossybox's $39 lipstick/lipgloss combo in completely wrong colors for me).
Your first question: Right, your next charge will be in Decembmer. Second question: You will get whatever the month is after your current paid month. That is, if you have paid for November and then get a referral bonus, you would not pay for December. If you signed up for a three-month multi-month subscription period that ends in January, your February box would be free.
JenniferV's got it. But you can still buy an extra box for December, at least until those sell out: You would just place an order for a new box and check the box next to "Is this a Gift?" Gift subscriptions do not auto-renew. But this will only work for the December box until the December boxes sell out (and after that, it will roll over to January). But if the plan is to get this for a Christmas present, it's highly possible that it won't arrive in time. These boxes usually arrive during the last few days of the month (or even the first couple of days of the following month) for me, so I'm expecting the December box to hit my doorstep right around the twelfth day of Christmas (they do *not* start before Christmas! They start the day *after* Christmas! [ramble about the three wise men and Epiphany deleted]).
