It’s Love With Food time again! This month’s theme is “Winter Wonderland” and features an assortment of “decadent delights”. Most notably, a vegan chocolate bar! Woohoo!
Regular Love With Food boxes are $10/month (plus $2 shipping). They also have a “deluxe” box for $19.95/month (free shipping). With every box purchased, Love With Food donates a meal to a person in need. Everyone wins! 🙂
Okay, onto the “decadent delights”! [read more…]
*As of December 2015, Citrus Lane is no longer in business. If you’re looking for an alternative, bluum is a great choice. — You can see my reviews of them here. With bluum, you can choose your own products and build your own box. They feature the same great brands, plus you can save $10 on your first month with coupon code “MRVA286CCE“.*
It’s Citrus Lane time again! I saw plenty of spoilers this month, so I was pretty sure I knew what I was going to get. I was hoping for different variations of the things I got, but no such luck. Ah well. It’s still a pretty good box.
If you don’t already know, Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription for babies/kids (aged newborn-5). It’s $25/month (cheaper with longer subs) and includes a nice assortment of toys, books, snacks, toiletries, etc. Sometimes they even include a gift for mom. 
The theme this time is Thanksgiving/holiday mealtime and my box is geared towards a 16-month old girl. Let’s checka-check it ooout! [read more…]
Bestowed is a monthly subscription box that features healthy snacks & foods carefully chosen by nutritionist/author Heather Bauer.
Boxes are only $19/month (including shipping!) and contain a nice variety of different snacks, food items, and beverages to help you start or maintain a healthy lifestyle.
November’s box focuses on products that’ll help you “kick your workout regimen into gear”. Being the lazy turd that I am, I don’t have any regimen that needs gear kicking. Lucky for me, you don’t need to be a pro athlete to enjoy this box. In yo’ face, fitness! Erm… Yeah. Let’s go ahead and see what’s in the box. [read more…]
After a couple months getting the “deluxe” Love With Food box, I decided to switch back to the regular, smaller one. We’ve got SO many snacks piled up from boxes, that we’re running out of cupboard space. Total snack overload up in here.
November’s theme is “Flavors of Fall” and features items chosen by Chef Ryan Scott. As always, with every box purchased, Love With Food donates a meal to someone in need. Love that.
Alright, let’s see what’s inside… [read more…]
Hey kids, there’s a new snack box in town! Hurrah!
MunchPak just launched today and is offering an awesome discount on your first box — ONLY valid for the next 24 hours! (More on that later!)
What is MunchPak, you say? Simply put, it’s a monthly box of snacks from around the world, delivered right to your door (well, mailbox). You can expect to receive goodies from Japan, Canada, Australia, Sweden, and other snack-producing countries. 😉
I was lucky enough to win a box on the MunchPak Facebook page, so I got to preview the box before today’s launch. Woo! Let’s see what I got, shall we? [read more…]
See that big ol’ pile of snacks up there? They were ALL packed inside of ONE Great Kids Snack Box! That’s a whole lotta snackin’ goodness!
The folks at Great Kids Snacks have one goal in mind — to provide parents with an affordable, easy way of making sure their kiddos are eating healthy (and yummy!) snacks. Their monthly snack box offers a nice sampling of granola bars, fruit snacks, crackers, popcorn, nuts, and more. Everything is all natural, free of trans fats/high fructose corn syrup, and serve as great alternatives to traditional grab & go junk food snacks.
The Great Kids Snack Box is $39.95/month and contains 30 individually wrapped snacks. Each month will offer a new assortment, all of which you can buy in bulk right from their online store.
Okay, let’s see what they sent! [read more…]
Yay! I got my Ecocentric Mom box this month without seeing any spoilers first! I love when that happens.
This is actually the second-last “monthly” box from Ecocentric Mom, as they’ve just announced a change in box frequency. After November’s box, they’ll be sending them out every-other-month, as opposed to monthly. They also made mention of a waiting list for new members at some point. Hint, hint… If you’re on the fence about subscribing, now would be a good time to go for it. Just sayin’. 😉
Okay, onto the box… [read more…]

Woah! My Citrus Lane box arrived SO early this month! I’ve never gotten it this fast. Plus, Monday was a no-mail day. How did this happen??!!
Due to its early-ness, I hadn’t seen many spoilers. It was fun opening the box without knowing exactly what would be in it. What a concept! 😉
For all the newbies out there, Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription for babies/kids (aged newborn-5). It’s $25/month (cheaper with longer subs) and includes a nice assortment of toys, books, snacks, toiletries, etc. Sometimes they even include a gift for mom. 🙂
This box was geared towards a 15-month old girl. The theme this time around was “Playtime! Bathtime! Bedtime!”, and included products to use for play, in the bath, and, yep, at bedtime. [read more…]
Love With Food has been delivering some seriously awesome boxes lately. Seriously. Awesome. Most of the items have been vegan, which of course is a HUGE plus for a snack lovin’ vegan gal such as myself.
This is my second month getting the “Deluxe” box ($19.95), and though I like getting more snacks (who wouldn’t?), I think I’m going to go back to the regular ($12.00) box. I’m literally running out of space in my cupboards due to all of the goodies I get every month. #subscriptionboxproblems
The theme for October was “Scary Delicious” and here’s what was inside… [read more…]
Appleseed Lane is a fun new subscription box designed for kiddos 4-8 years old. The box focuses on age-appropriate science projects and related crafts. Each month features a different theme, with projects relating to it. All of the materials needed are right in the box, including a cute little illustrated booklet that explains the science behind the experiments in a kid-friendly way.
The box that I received for review was “Halloween Science”. Fun! I love holiday-themed boxes! [read more…]
Goody Gorilla is a new-ish subscription box that delivers healthy snacks to your door for just $15 a month (shipping included).
When I first got word of this box I was super stoked, since they promised that 90% of the items would be vegan. (It said so in their FAQ’s.) So when I got my box and found that only 4 out of the 7 products were in fact vegan, I was pretty bummed.
Thankfully, customer service was great and offered to send me additional vegan snacks at no charge (even though I requested to cancel my account). I just looked at their FAQ page again and noticed that they took out the “90%” and replaced it with “some”. While it’s sad that they’re not featuring as many vegan products as once promised, it’s cool that they owned up to it and updated their site to reflect that.
Alright… Enough blabbering… Onto the box! [read more…]
The long-awaited Ecocentric Mom Mystery box finally shipped this week! (I know, I know… Please try to contain your excitement.)
Here’s the deal: Every so often Ecocentric Mom announces a “bonus” box available for a one-time purchase of just $25. They promise that it’ll be jam-packed with eco-friendly essentials for both mamma & baby. The last time they offered one of these was back in June, and jam-packed it WAS. You can see that review right here. It was good. Very, very good.
So when they made this mystery box announcement over the summer, I knew I had to sign up for one. Had to. And I’m glad I did… There was SO much stuff! [read more…]
Healthy Surprise is a monthly subscription box for snacks — vegan/gluten-free/soy-free, all-natural-super-fantastic ones! It’s a great box for those with food allergies, vegans (hey, that’s me!), or anyone who wants to snack a little healthier.
Oh, did I mention that all of the snacks are FULL SIZE? Yep. They sure are. No sample-sized, mini snacks in these boxes! You can choose from 3 different box sizes: Starter (16-20 servings), Healthy (32-40 servings), or Large (48-60 servings). Boxes start at $33/month and you can cancel at anytime. (But why would you want to?)
Okay, less talk, more snacks! Let’s see what goodies Healthy Surprise delivered this time! [read more…]
This is the first time I’ve gotten my Ecocentric Mom box totally spoiler-free! I was surprised to find it on my doorstep so soon and couldn’t wait to tear into it. (No really, these things truly do excite me! Sad, I know.)
Ecocentric Mom offers 3 different box options: Mom-to-Be, Mom, and Mom & Baby (for babies up to 18 months). Every box contains products that are eco-friendly, natural, organic, and often vegan-friendly. Subscriptions are $21/month (or less with longer commitments) and shipping is free.
I always get the “Mom & Baby” box, because I’d much rather get stuff for the girls than for me. Hey, what can I say, I’m just that damn awesome. 😉 Okay, let’s see what I got this month! [read more…]
e-Sentials is a brand new subscription service for that oh-so-wonderful “time of the month”. They want to save you the trouble of having to go out and replenish your stock of “essentials” every month. (Or worse, making your bf/husband do it.)
There are 3 different package options to choose from: $10 for 20 pads/tampons of your choice. $13 for the pads/tampons and 3 disposable razors. $16 for the pads/tampons, 3 disposable razors, and deodorant. Packages are totally customizable — you choose how many pads and/or tampons you need, if you want light/heavy/etc., and whether or not you need extras (there is a 30 cent charge for additional pads/tampons). Shipping is always free.
I was sent the $16 package for review purposes. Here’s what I received… [read more…]
