I tried that initially, but there was no place to choose a "pay with Glossydots" option, only the normal billing page. So I emailed Glossybox CS and they replied that I couldn't use my Glossydots without an active subscription. I went onto the Glossybox facebook page to complain and got a good response there. They helped me out and just credited my Glossydots towards a free box without requiring a subscription- so right now on my account page it shows that I have been deducted 1000 Glossydots "reserved for free box". We will see if it actually gets shipped to me (the CS rep says it should deliver between 10/25 and 11/7, but what do we know..?)
