Stunner of the month
How fun is this subscription....Well let me tell you...VERY!!! I love sunglasses. I don't like to spend to much on them because, it never fails they get scratched, the arm falls off, or the lenses falls out. So when I found Stunner of the month I was so excited and I got the first month free by using the code trystunner at . After the first month they are $9.00 a month and that includes shipping. They are easy to cancel, you can do it right from their website and their website is so easy to use. I really like this service, and for a month free I would try it if I were you. You wont be disappointed. I will let you know that when I got my box I thought for sure the glasses were broken because I heard something rattling inside of the box. To my surprise when I opened the box I had found they sent me a bottle opener key chain, and it was taped to the top of the box and that is what I had heard. The glasses also came in a dust bag so they wont get scratched when I put them in my pocketbook (very nice touch). Some people may be put off by the fact you can not pick out your own sunglasses, but I think it is fun and exciting to see what you get. Now to what sunglasses I got. The glasses are a salmon color with dark gray almost black trim. They are something I would not have picked out for myself, but I really like them and the colors go so nice together. I can't say enough how much I love this company and it's service. I know what your saying she did not say anything about Customer Service well that is because they made it so easy I did not need anyone's help. I said it before and I will say it again get your free pair you wont regret it. Thanks Tabitha

Julep
I love the idea of this subscription service, because I love to have my nails painted. I just think it makes my hands look better. Being a stay at home Mom to a one year old son, getting to the nail salon is never on my to-do list...lol. I have heard great things about this company, and its Customer service. You all know how I feel about companies with great customer service(I LOVE them). So I was thrilled to see they were giving away the first box free, so I set up two accounts one for me and one for my niece who loves to paint her nails as well. I picked the colors for us, but when I got them I was so unimpressed. The colors were nothing like they looked on my computer screen. I was not happy with that at all, but their foot cream was very nice. Since I was not happy with the nail polish I decided to cancel both subscriptions, because that is the majority of their products. When I called to cancel the Customer Service rep. was great she asked me why I wanted to cancel and apologized about the color difference. She made it painless to cancel. She also answered a few miscellaneous questions I had. She was wonderful. Julep is $19.99 a month and that gets you at least $40.00 worth the their products. They will send you an email with a preview of your Julep Maven Box on the 20th of each month. If you love what they have chosen for you. You have to do nothing and your box is on its way. If you don't like it or want to try a new style, send your box to a friend or skip the month all together. Just log into your account between the 20th and the 24th to submit your request. They will start shipping the Julep Maven Box the same day you're charged, on the 27th of each month. Their web site is also wonderful to use they could not make it easier. I do like Juelp very much, and with the first box free you can't go wrong. the code for a free box is FREEBOX it is 3.99 for shipping and handling and you can find them at http://www.julep.com/ Thank you, Tabitha

Sock Panda...
Where to begin....I am a sock junkie so I love this concept for a monthly subscription box, and I had my Mom asking me to let her know how it is because she wanted to send it to a few family members with sock issues like me...lol. I had to be honest and let her know I did not think it was a good idea. I mean the kids would think it was great, because they are kids. I just did not feel the socks were anything special and not a great value for the price. With that said they were cute, one pair was K. Bell socks with cats and the other was a pair of Davco NewYork with a dog on them. Maybe I just expected something different form the socks they show on their web site. I also found the web site a bit hard to use. I accidentally ordered 2 subscriptions so I had to call. I found there was no real Customer Service to speak of. I spoke to David he is the owner and he did give me a discount on them in exchange for me to review them. I was charged for both subscriptions and had to wait for my refund. When I called him back to see if he was going to refund me, he asked me if I had sent him an reminder e-mail.....a reminder e-mail..it is called a post it wright it down and do what you say your going to do without someone having to call you 3 times and e-mailing you 3 times to get it done. I did eventually get my refund. You should know by now and that the service I got does not make my opinion of the subscription service any different. I want to let you know about the boxes but also the service I receive. Sock Panda is $11.00 a month that includes shipping. If you need to cancel you can do that by logging into another screen from there home page. Good luck if you have a question and need to call. I am not trying to be rude, I was just sooo unhappy with this subscription. If you want to try it you may have a different experience and I hope you do...Thanks Tabitha

Love with Food
I got my first love with food box today, and I am happy to say it won't be my last. This box was curated by Chef Ming Tsai who I have been a fan of since his PBS days....did I just give my age away, Oh well. I was really happy with all of the items inside. I received 9 sample snacks that were all gluten free. There were Cheddar Cheese Organicasaurus cheese puffs from Good Boy Organics, Roasted Red Pepper and Artichoke Bruschetta from Milas Foods, Blueberry Fruit Bar from Betty Lou's, Roasted Garlic Hummus from Wild Garden, 100% Natural Crunchy Cinnamon Apple Chips from Bare Fruit, Cherry Berry Raw Cookie from Licious Organics, Sipping Broth from Millies Savory Teas, Cinnamon Crunch from Cosmos Creations, and Fruit Snacks from Yum Earth Organics. If there are any of these things I want to get full size bags of I can shop for these and past box items right from the Love with food web site. They could not have made it easier. I have to say this box has been one of the nicest food boxes I have received so far. The samples are things I actually want to try not just a bunch of powered drinks that no one wants...lol. I have a little boy and he can enjoy these Items as well. I have wanted to try Love with food for some time. I have seen people raving about their boxes, and when they gave a code for a free box I took full advantage of it. If you want a free box the code is FBGIFT and their website is Love with Food . They say Love With Food helps you discover new organic, all-natural snacks delivered to your door every month. They also donate a meal for every box sold, they have donated over 100,000 meals so for to several food banks such as the Feeding America Network and Share Our Strength, and they are aiming for 100,000 more. I love a company that gives back. They have 4 different meal plans The monthly which is a 12.00 monthly charge, and you get 10 points monthly. That works out to $10.00 for the box and $2.00 shipping. There is a 3 month plan that is $36.00 every three months, and you get 500 bonus points. That works out to $10.00 for the box and $2.00 shipping. There is a six month plan that is $66.00 every six months, and 1000 bonus points. That works out to $10.00 for the box and $1.00 shipping a savings of 8%. Then lastly there is a yearly plan it is $120.00 a year, and you get 1000 bonus points. That works out to $10.00 for the box and free shipping a 15% savings. All plans automatically renew. You may cancel at anytime. It is easy to cancel you do it right from their website. The bonus points are also easy For every 1000 points earned, you get $10 off any product featured in their shop. I really like this box and I can not wait till next month. Love,Love,Love them, Tabitha
Tasting Room
Tasting room is a monthly subscription service in which you choose bottles of wine to be delivered to your door. They send you a tasting kit (as shown below) for 9.95 to cover shipping and handling. There are 2 or 3 different ones. I got the one with both red and white wines. The kit is designed to help you figure out what wines you like. Once you get your tasters pack you sign on to their web site and they walk you through step by step how to taste wine. It is like an on-line wine tasting. If your like me and thought wine is wine you really can tell a difference. There is no set amount different bottles are different prices. Depending on your preferences they show you several wines you might like. The number of bottles you have to get varies as well. This was fun to try because I have never done anything like this before. I reviewed this service because I received a $50.00 gift card, and I have seen a few box reviews with the same gift card I got in them. Please keep in mind the gift card I received was not the same company as this one I am reviewing now. I have to say I was kind of annoyed with that gift card because, I know nothing about wine. What my likes or dislikes are, I just do not know. Needless to say I never used my gift card. When I saw this and how they help you make choices I wanted to try it. I will not be getting any monthly because I have no need to keep bottles of wine it would go to waste. If your someone who loves wine or are interested in trying something new this was very cool. I would recommend them. Thanks Tabitha

Graze
My Graze box arrived today and I am wicked excited about this one. This has to be my favorite box so far. I have been listening to my sister and the ladies on some of the Facebook pages I am on talk about the toffee apples and how AMAZING they are. Well I have received them and let me tell you not only were they amazing but they were only 68 calories....WOW. The rest of my box was great as always. I got the salsa fresca not my favorite the salsa was wonderful but the chips were not so tasty, but there were 10 in the pack and still the pack was only 51 calories so that is good. I also got the love mix that is dried Apricots, cherries, and goji berries that was good as usual. The dried fruit was real dried fruit not a gummy sugary mess of what was once fruit like 10 years ago. Then last but never least I got the summer berry flapjacks, and those of you who have gotten the flapjacks before know were....amazing yum yum yum. I got the fruit and seed flapjacks last box and they were wonderful as well. I have been so happy with everything from Graze I can not tell you enough how great these boxes are. As for the company I did not have to contact them recently, but when I did in the past they were very helpful and responded quickly with answers to my questions. These boxes are $5.00 each and you can get 1-4 a month depending on how often you want to receive new snacks. You can change how many boxes right from the Graze website it could not be easier to navigate. When I signed up I went to there site and reviewed all the snacks they had, if there is something unappealing to you, click the trash tab so they do not send it to you. If there is something you want to try, clicked the try button. When I get something I really like I will go back in and click the like or love tabs so I get it again. Then if for some reason you needed to cancel all together they will suspend your account so you don't loose all the reviews you have done. That way you can start up where you left off when you came back. I highly recommend Graze you wont be disappointed. Thanks Tabitha https://www.graze.com/us/products

Bulu
I received my Bulu box a few days ago. Bulu Box is a great way discover new vitamin, supplement, health and weight loss products. The box has great motivating sayings on it my favorite is " Find your comfort zone then leave it " I don't know why I love that saying but it made me think and want to move. I have to say if I was going to the gym like I should this is a really nice box. You can order your box the price is $10.00 a month, $30.00 for 3 months, $60.00 for 6 months, and $110.00 for a yearly subscription a savings of $10.00. I have a link from the awesome people at Bulu box to give everyone who wants to try it for 3 months 1/2 off so instead of it being $30.00 it is only $15.00 with shipping included. How awesome is that!!! Just enter the promo code BULU3MONTH at http://www.bulubox.com/. I took advantage of this promotion because I still have 20lbs to loose and I truly feel this box will help me to do that. Their customer service was great. As you all know I am obsessed with customer service. You can tell so much about a company by how they treat their customers. I sent an e- mail and was contacted back quickly by Stephanie Leonard the Community Outreach Manager she was wonderful. All of my questions were answered and she left me her cell number to get in touch with her if I had any other questions. I love that in Customer service!!!! Now to my awesome box this box was sent to me free for review purposes but that in no way affects my opinion. There were some very nice items in the box I received. I got GU Chomp pure performance energy chews, they were strawberry and tasted good not like some energy gummies I have tried. There was some power fuel drink powder that is blue raspberry, I have not tried it yet. There was a sample of Thera-Gesic pain relieving cream, and with a one year old that keeps me running it came in handy. I love that stuff. Then lastly a 7-14 day supply of Shapeology burn blend dietary supplement, I was a bit hesitant to try this because some of these supplements have made me jittery in the past so I read the bottle and saw I could take 1 capsule 2 times a day instead of 2 capsules 2 times a day so I tried it and I had no jitters and I liked it. I am glad to say since I have gotten this box I have lost another 4lbs. Yeahhh me... I am so happy with what I received in my box as I said I ordered a 3 month subscription. That breaks down to $5.00 a box including shipping how could you go wrong. This box rocks and so does the company and last but not least if you are like me and like in the middle of nowhere they have a tab on their site so if you got something you loved and want to keep using it you can order it right from them and they have free shipping on all orders over $50.00. My pictures have gone MIA so as soon as I receive my next box I will post some great pictures. Have a healthy day, Tabitha.
