Cravebox Fast Meals Box 2013

Image
Hey Everyone! I just got my Cravebox: Cooking Light Fast Meals!  I haven't bought a Cravebox in a while so I thought that I would go ahead and try it out again. For those of you who are not familiar with Cravebox, it is a service that is very different than your regular subscription box services. Instead if being guaranteed a box every month, you have to enter a drawing to receive each themed box. Based on the answers to your questions, you may or may not receive the box. They are doing their service a little bit different now where you can be guaranteed a box by paying a few dollars extra, I usually just wait and see if I was chosen to receive a box. Cost: $16 Popchips Tortilla Chips, Nacho Cheese, 1-Ounce (Pack of 24) Value: $0.85 I've had these before and I already know that I like them a lot. Although, I've never had the nacho cheese flavor. I'm guessing that it is going to taste like Doritoes, only a healthier version. Yummy! ...

Cravebox Bikini Ready Box

Image
Hey Everybody! My latest  Cravebox  came in the mail last week! This boxes theme was "Bikini Ready". Of course it was geared towards the upcoming bikini season! If you guys are unfamiliar with Cravebox, it is definitely different than other subscription boxes. Instead of being guaranteed a box, you take a survey and enter the drawing once a box becomes available. If you are chosen to get the box, they charge your card (usually the same day that you get the email confirmation) and send it off the next day. Each box has a different cost, usually between $13-15 each. Cost: $13 $2 off Sally Hansen Wax  and a  $5 Credit on GymPact I signed up for GymPact on my phone and with it, you earn money for each time that you work out. You can run, go to the gym or workout at home. It seems pretty fun to me and it really motivates me to get my gym time in each week! Zone Perfect Nutrition Bar  in Chocolate Caramel Cluster Valu...

Book and Beauty Cravebox March 2013 Review

Image
Hey Everybody! I just received my Book and Beauty  Cravebox !  Cost $13 Biore  Balancing Cleanser and Unclogging Scrub Value: $1 I have to admit, I don't think that I have ever tried this brand before. I always see it in the grocery store but I have never actually tried it. Now I will get the chance to try it out! 'Mistress of My Fate" by Hallie Rubenhold Value: $25.99 This is a pretty thick book, and it's a hardcover. I really need to get back into reading again because this looks really interesting! John Frieda  Deep Conditioner Value: $9.98 Now what I cannot figure out is why they didn't send the shampoo along with it. Who doesn't buy shampoo and conditioner as a set from the same brand? I'm sure that there are people out there who don't but I'm pretty sure that most people do. The bottle even says that you should use it after the shampoo. Oh well, I have heard pretty good things about John Frie...

Cravebox Me Time by Harlequin Box Review

Image
Hey Everyone! I just received my  Cravebox  in the mail. This box was called, "Me Time by Harlequin."  This particular box cost me $8. Here are all of the cards that came with this box. Belvita Breakfast Biscuits in the flavor "Blueberry" Retail Value: $2 SunRype  Nutrition Bar in the flavor "Fruits & Grains" Retail Value: $1.13 "Waking Up Married" by Mira Lyn Kelly Retail Value: $4.99 Celestial Seasonings  "Metabo Balance Wellness Tea" Retail Value: $.36 UPDATE:  This is definitely not my favorite tea or anything. I didn't think that it tasted too bad either though. It was supposed to have caffeine in it so I drank it for a little energy boost in the afternoon. I didn't feel anymore energized after drinking it. I probably wouldn't buy any of this on my own, I've had better tea before.   Cocoavia  Variety Sample Pack Retail Value: $5.28 ...

Cravebox Cooking Light Box Review

Image
Hey Everyone! My  Cravebox  Cooking Light just came in! This box was huge, it had some big items in it! I paid $15 for this particular box.  These are just those "fun" little papers that come in every box. It came with a little cookbook with healthy recipes and a small magazine with a few health articles in it.  Belvita  Breakfast Biscuits in the flavor "Cinnamon Brown Sugar" Retail Value: $2 It also came with two $1 coupons but I do not add that value into it because the only coupons that I ever use from these boxes are the free ones or things that I cannot live without :) Barilla  veggie pasta in "Farfalle" Retail Value: $2.05 I LOVE pasta, but once I started to lose weight and stick to a regular diet (I've lost 15 lbs so far) I had to quit eating pasta because it is loaded with unneeded carbohydrates. This is made with veggies though, I think I can splurge one night and not feel too guilty abou...

Cravebox Dog Lovers II Box Review

Image
Hey Everybody! I just received my  Cravebox  in the mail, this one is called the "Dog Lovers II." This particular box cost me $10. True Chews  Chicken Jerky Fillets Retail Value: $4.25 Sentry  Calming Collar for Dogs Retail Value: $12 UPDATE:  When I first saw this in my box, I really didn't think that it was going to work. I still gave it a try though and I put it on my 6 month old Yellow Labrador. He gets excited about everything and sometimes I just wish that he would calm down so that I can finish some homework. I don't think that it worked REALLY well, but I definitely noticed a little bit of difference. He calmed down a little bit with the collar on, it just didn't make a huge difference in his hyper level.  "In a Dog's Heart" book by Jennifer Arnold Retail Value: $15 The Honest Kitchen  Dehydrated Whole Food for Dogs in the flavor "Beef" Plus, a coupon for $3.50 off my next ...
