Love with Food October 2013 Review

I like the philosophy behind Love With Food (LWF) and I found a great deal, so I bought an additional 6-month subscription to LWF. My subscriptions overlapped for the month of October, so I received 2 October subscription boxes. In addition, I had received a complimentary October box from LWF for review purposes, so I will be giving away an October LWF box soon!

Love With Food

Contents: The October LWF theme was 'Scary Delicious.' It included 8 different items and a bonus coupon for a complimentary Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Entree.

Love with Food September Review

I am still trying to catch up on some (very) belated subscription box reviews! 

I like the philosophy behind Love With Food (LWF) and I found a great deal on Rue La La, so I bought an additional 6-month subscription to LWF!

Love With Food

Contents: The September LWF theme was curated by Chef Ming Tsai. I seem to have lost the info card, so I don't know what the monthly theme was, but it was an entirely gluten-free box. It included 9 different items.

October is my birthday month and I turned 30 this year! I spent the last few years in graduate school, so, I appreciate a good freebie (follow me on twitter @CautiouslyOpRev if you like giveaways).

Conscious Box Classic July 2013 Review

This July Classic Conscious box review is quite delayed. I'm starting to sound like a broken record...once again (yes, for the fourth straight month), I was disappointed in the Conscious box contents. I procrastinated while writing this review because I prefer to not write negative reviews on products and subscription boxes. However, I reasoned that it would be helpful for readers to see the contents of the July Classic Conscious box to determine if this subscription box is a good fit for their lifestyle. These opinions are solely my own and keep in mind that the same products/subscription box may have been loved by others. 

Conscious box

Contents: 
The July Conscious box theme month was 'Find Nature's Fireworks'. My Classic Conscious box included 15 different items (2 baby/children, 1 beauty, 2 food, 6 health and 4 home products). 

Klutchclub June 2013 Women's Box Review

KLUTCHclub is a health, wellness and personal care subscription box. There are 4 different options: Women, Men, Mom and Best of Box. KLUTCHclub normally gives a preview of the regular monthly boxes for Women, Men and Mom. 

The reason that this June box review is delayed is because KLUTCHclub occasionally sells surplus boxes from previous months at a discounted price. I was able to purchase this box for only $8 (normally $18) - it was supposed to be the May box, but the May box had sold out, so KLUTCHclub sent me a June box.

This June Classic Conscious box review is quite delayed.

Conscious Box - Vegan Box May 2013 Review

This May Vegan Conscious box review is quite delayed. Once again, I was slightly disappointed in the Conscious box contents. I thought that this May Vegan box was not as good as my April Vegan box. I procrastinated while writing this review because I prefer to not write negative reviews on products and subscription boxes. However, I reasoned that it would be helpful for readers to see the contents of the May Vegan Conscious box to determine if this subscription box is a good fit for their lifestyle. These opinions are solely my own and keep in mind that the same products/subscription box may have been loved by others.
