Reviewing Canadian Subscription Boxes & Eco-Friendly Products
I ended up with two boxes from Tea Runners this month because I switched over from the American site to the Canadian site. I'm still in the process of getting a refund* for the remaining 5 boxes from the US site, but the customer service so far has been great. As part of this order... Continue Reading →
I missed the Canadian site by only a few days. I originally signed up with the American site because I didn't know it was American and it was the only option at the time. The Canadian site was launched only a few days later. I explained my situation to the owners and I am currently... Continue Reading →
Because I purchased a 12-month/6-box plan, I was gifted a mystery box with over $50 value inside. This shipped along with my summer box and arrived within 9 days of ordering. This was pretty quick, unlike my Sweet Reads boxes, which I've so far been waiting 4 weeks for. Inside the box I received a... Continue Reading →
I'll be honest when I say that the free bonus box was a factor in my subscription.

These are, of course, subject to change, and I will be updating this page as my experiences with them progress. I'm always looking for more interesting Canadian subscription boxes to try. If you have... Continue Reading →
Though I'd heard of subscription boxes for years, I thought they were a silly thing to get into. Why spend money on things you likely don't want? My sister had subscribed to a box, though I can't remember which one, and ended up giving most of the items away. Truthfully, I feel quite embarrassed when... Continue Reading →
A few months ago I ordered a gift box from Café Hubert Saint-Jean as part of a job that I will not further discuss. One of the goodies inside the box was the utterly spectacular hazelnut and dark chocolate spread from Allo Simonne. I have always been a fan of Nutella, but this is so... Continue Reading →
A few years ago I decided to do my Christmas shopping in Fort Langley. The town is full of unique stores with quite a few local, Canadian, and handmade products. Although it can be pricey, there are some good finds. One type of business that has sprouted up in excess recently is hand-poured soy candles.... Continue Reading →
My reasons for purchasing things from clearly scam websites are to remain unknown and have nothing to do with the main content of this site. However, I am going to keep a list of my worst (best?) experiences here. I hope this will help document their scamminess in an effort to stop other people from... Continue Reading →
