Citrus Lane March 2014 Review and $20 Discount #2

March 23, 2014 by Wendy Rose — 3 Comments

*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“.*

Once again, I got two different Citrus Lane boxes this month. My mom signed up when they offered new members their first box for free and (lucky for me) forgot to cancel after she received it… So she ended up getting one this month too. Woo!

Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription for babies/kids aged newborn-5. It’s $29/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 month’s box included products to “help your baby learn and play”, along with a few practical/functional items.

Our box is geared towards a 2 year old girl (I think?) and here’s what was inside… [read more…]

Munch Box is a monthly subscription from Candy Kid that delivers an assortment of sweets right to your door. They include a fun mix of candies that can fit into any of the following categories: funny, foreign, healthy, classic, and new. In other words, there’s quite the assortment — something for everyone! Woo!

I was originally supposed to receive the February Munch Box, but there was a mixup and I got the March one instead. To be honest, I’m kinda happy for the delay. Why? Read on! [read more…]

bluum is a monthly subscription box for babies & kiddos from birth through age 5. Every box will contain 5 or more products that are responsibly sourced, eco-friendly and often organic.

There used to be monthly “themes”, but they’ve recently moved away from that and instead curate each box based upon your child’s current age in months.

My girls are currently 19 months old, so the bluum box I received was for 20 months. Let’s see what they sent! [read more…]

You never really know what you’re gonna get, but you can rest assured that it’ll always be totally cruelty-free. (And packaged prettily too!)

Gluten Free Conscious Box February 2014 Review & Codes for FREE Boxes!

March 6, 2014 by Wendy Rose — 16 Comments

I know I just posted a Conscious Box review a couple days ago, BUT this month I received a gluten-free box in addition to my regular vegan one. So I thought I’d share both so you can see the difference between the two. (I’m actually going to copy & paste the “repeat” items from the vegan post, so if you already read that one, you might wanna skip over the dupes.)

For those who aren’t aware, Conscious Box is a monthly subscription box that features eco-friendly/natural products. Items range from healthy snacks, to natural toothpaste, and everything in between. There are 3 different boxes to choose from: The Vegan Box (which I normally get), The Gluten-Free Box (this one), and the Classic Box. All boxes are $19.95/month, but you can almost always find a coupon code — often up to 50% off! (Psst… There’s a code for THREE free boxes at the end of this post.)

I’ve never gotten the gluten-free box before, so I was curious to see what was inside… [read more…]

Bike Loot February 2014 Review

March 6, 2014 by Wendy Rose — Leave a Comment

Bike Loot is a monthly subscription service that helps cyclists “ride longer and live healthier”. Each month you’ll receive 5 to 6 pro-level cycling products that span the areas of nutrition, maintenance, and personal care. Boxes start as low as $10/month (plus shipping).

Full disclosure: Despite my visible tattoos and my husband’s gnarly beard, we are totally not cyclists. Hell, my husband doesn’t even own a bike. That said, we still enjoyed our Bike Loot box! No, really! Though it’s geared towards bike dudes (and dude-ettes), its contents are practical enough for anyone — even my bike-less husband.

Wanna see what’s inside? Let’s goooo! [read more…]

March 1, 2014 by Wendy Rose — 4 Comments

I first reviewed Silly Rhino back in November, when the box had just launched. I absolutely LOVED what I received then, so when they asked if I’d like to review February’s box I excitedly accepted their offer and eagerly awaited delivery.

Citrus Lane February 2014 Review #2 and 50% Discount!

February 26, 2014 by Wendy Rose — Leave a Comment

Although I’ve already reviewed February’s Citrus Lane box not too long ago, I’m posting another one!

I totally forgot that my mom took advantage of their free box offer last month and ordered one for the girls. She aged it up a bit (not sure exactly how much), so I’m guessing this box is for a 2 year old maybe? Seems about right, based on the other reviews I’ve seen.

I was SO excited when she called me up to remind me that she had ordered a box, and then went on to reveal what was inside. I was hoping that I’d get 2 of the items in our “normal” box, and when we didn’t I was kinda bummed. So when I heard that we actually DID get them, I was super stoked. (Yep, when you’re a mom you totally get “stoked” by stuff like this. Sad, but true.)

Oh, if you don’t already know, Citrus Lane is a monthly subscription for babies/kids (aged newborn-5). It’s $29/month (cheaper with longer subs) and includes a nice assortment of toys, books, snacks, toiletries, etc. Sometimes they even include a gift for mom. (They did this time. Yay!)

Okay, onto Box #2! [read more…]
