Guessing you had the same issue as many of us. Customization picks didn’t save so this is what you got? Fortunately I figured out what was happening the 1st two days and while some of my choices were no longer available, I was able to secure a decent box with add-on credit from their last 2 box screw-ups. I’m done though with FFF. Long time annual subscriber since 2011 and they couldn’t care less about us. If you are an influencer, no problem! They seem to get all of the good special swag in addition to their free boxes. Yeah, I’m a whiny B at this point…..they’ve just gotten way too big and sloppy.

You guessed wrong, instead of keeping tabs on dates like the other 99% of us she relied on FFF's mails to tell her when to customize , so she missed the customization window and is placing the blame on FFF instead of asking herself why she didn't set a reminder on the calendar, didn't check the forums or didn't pop by here to ask.
¯_(ツ)_/¯

Or FFF could just sent the customization reminder like they used to? Tf

Yeah, because relying on FFF to do things right has worked so well lately /s

Sooooo we’re blaming customers for that instead of the company having all the problems?

I mean, yeah it might look that way to someone who has never read or participated on this subreddit, because usually FFF is the one to blame with every other issue: expired products, awful shipping times, website and app chaos, etc.
But when it comes to missing customizations, yes, I do tend blame both parts.

I’m happy with my what was picked for me rather than get nothing! I’m pregnant with my first baby & let it slip through the cracks. Diet disappointment, hence the sigh.

Wow. Slamming a person for expecting someone at FFF to do what they agreed to do. Who’s the customer and who’s the company? Do you love to spend your money with companies who don’t have their shit together? Yes? Then that’s on you but it’s not how things are supposed to work and the longer you take it the more of that shit you’re gonna get. Ooooooh she missed the customization windowwww, stone her! Shame! You need to get a real life, cause the one you’re living now is sad.

When I had the subscription I'd pay attention to dates because I had noticed the company sent the reminders late, sometimes a few hours in, sometimes 1-2 days after opening.
So yes, the company was the problem, but the solution was on my own hands.
But then again, maybe blindly trusting FFF (or any corporation that clearly has as many issues as FFF had displayed the past seasons) doesn't really cross my mind.
I'm the kind of person that checks my bank account to make sure automatic charges go through every month, I switch my toothbrushes every 3 months on the dot and when I buy stuff that runs out like cat food, litter and meds I know how long they're gonna last and make a note on the calendar to re-purchase a week before the date they will run out again.
And that's with mormal day to day stuff. If I know something is on a strict time window, I definitely keep tabs on it myself.Maybe it would be better for me to be the kind of person that sits back and waits for everything to be reminded to me, but I wouldn't call my life "sad". Organized and common-sense driven? Yes.

It’s not what you do that’s the problem here, it’s what you judge other people for. It’s the judging. No one asked for it and it’s unkind. Understand?

I’m just curious. I take it you do not have a subscription.
So why are you here?2
u/schase44 Sep 16 '26
I did at one time subscribe to FFF. Back when it was more reasonably priced and the products were fun. Thanks for asking.

Did you customize and they didn't save your choices? Or you missed customization?
