Reviewing Canadian Businesses & Products
Last week Ryan e-mailed me to do a 7-month check in to see if I was still happy with how my subscription is going. He asked if I wanted to make any changes, and to let him know if there is anything I'd like to see in future boxes. I'm still fantasizing about an eco-friendly... Continue Reading →
So we still haven't gotten our socks from May yet. We got the new underwear, which was great, but the socks sadly never arrived. I e-mailed Marshall, and it took 4 days to get a response. He tried to clarify that they were to come separately, so I had to e-mail back and reiterate that... Continue Reading →
Acre 75 is always a fun box because we get to learn about all these small towns scattered across the country. This is not a box where you get a screaming deal for the price you spend. The appeal is the curated arrangement of products from small Canadian businesses. Acre 75 Gathered Subscription Box Overview... Continue Reading →
Fetch Co was our first summer box to arrive this season. I do have to say there is zero theming when it comes to these boxes. I've gotten three so far and none of them have had a real theme. I posted about this in my Spring Box review as well, but on the home... Continue Reading →
May in this part of the world seems to be when the sun finally comes out. Then June arrives and we get a full on Junuary. That is, a very wet month. Spiral Rain: Witch & Ohm Box Overview Cost: $75.99 - $85.99/month + $25/month shipping + Tax My Cost: $1222.90 (12 paid + 1... Continue Reading →
Why oh why would I add another dog subscription? It's more fun than spoiling children! Not that I have children, but I imagine it would be more fun, because a dog's excitement is consistent. They do need to fix their website though. Trying to go to their shop is not a good time. DuraPaw Subscription... Continue Reading →
This one was a shocker. I usually get the current month's box 7-15 days into the month. I have a spreadsheet, so I know exactly when the previou ones came. The June box, however, arrived on May 30! They completely bucked the trend on this one, and I can't help but wonder why. Vacation? Preparedness?... Continue Reading →
Start: Summer 2022 End: Spring 2023 Total Spent: $501.76 including tax Total Value: ~$800 before tax Unlike most subscription boxes, The Maple Box does not do a lot of communicating. There are no annoying requests for feedback, or selling add-ons, no newsletters, or really anything. It's basically radio silence. There aren't even shipping updates. When... Continue Reading →
When Maple arrived, it was a surprise. I thought it was the first summer box to arrive. I was wrong. The winter box arrived so late, and other summer boxes have already arrived (I'm looking at you FabFitFun) that I forgot they hadn't yet sent their spring box. Ta da! There's the spring box arriving... Continue Reading →
