Goodies Box | December 2012

I received my first Goodies Box last month. This is a subscription service that delivers quite a few unique foods to try out. 

• Sun Cups | Dark Chocolate Mint Chips - I do not like chocolate and mint so I gave this away.
• Bare Fruit | Cinnamon Apple Chips - These were good, I'd eat them again.
• Rocky Mountain Popcorn | Cinnamon Sugar - I loved this popcorn. Very unique and good flavor.
• Effie's Homemade | Oat Cakes - This was my favorite thing in this month's box. They were buttery and fell apart in your mouth. Delicious!
• World Table | Chocolate Mint Cookie Thins - Once again I don't like chocolate and mint mixed. They were a big hit at the family Christmas get-together though.
• EatSmart Naturals | Veggie Chips - These were not good. They tasted like cardboard.
• Sun Cups | Sunflower Butter Milk Chocolate Cups - I like peanut butter cups better. The sunflower butter was too different for me when I expect peanut butter to be inside.  

Birchbox | December 2012

I signed up for Birchbox for the second time in November. I canceled before because I needed to save money plus there was a glitch or something in their billing system and I was being charged twice every month. Every month I would call or email them and explain what was happening and they would refund the extra charge. They were always really nice about it but it became a hassle every month. Well, I decided to give them another try. I never received my November box due to Hurricane Sandy (which is completely understandable I am not complaining) which they were super nice and gave me a $10 credit to their online shop since my account was still charged for a box. The December box included the following items:

• Juicy Couture - Juicy Couture fragrance
• theBalm cosmetics Hot Mama Shadow & Blush All-in-One
• Chuao Chocolatier ChocoPod Maple Bacon flavor
• Juice Beauty Stem Cellular Repair CC Cream
• Nick Chavez Beverly Hills Advanced Volume Shampoo with Expansion Technology 

I would have never thought to give them a second chance if they did not have such great customer service. 

Love with Food Box - November 2012

This was the first month I received a Love with Food box. The box looks a little small but when you open it there is no excess packaging. It is packed full! 

Not only do you get a box of 8 or more different foods to try out each month but you are also donating to fight hunger. "For every box sold, we donate a meal to several food banks such as the Feeding America Network and Share Our Strength - No Kid Hungry." This box is only $12 a month including shipping which is not bad at all for what all you get.
