first look

I was literally so excited to open this box, I forgot to take a picture of the front of it! The box with the items is a hard, reusable box (it’s quite nice) and it gets shipped inside a brown mailer box for protection.

fringe scarf

Fringe Scarf -This was the featured item of the month and it’s gorgeous! The picture does not do it justice. It’s soft, thick, and perfect for fall/winter. The color I got is a deep red (it’s showing up way more orange in this photo than it is in real life), and I love it! I was hoping for either red or green, and I lucked out.

travel hair care

Pantene Pro-V– Travel Shampoo and Conditioner

Who can’t use some travel hair care during the holiday season? I know I will definitely use this!

candle

Donut Candle – This is adorable. It’s so realistic looking! The only downside is that it doesn’t seem to have a scent to me. I definitely prefer my candles scented. I might pass this one along to someone as a small gift in the future.

tea infuser

Tea Infuser– This squirrel tea infuser sits on your mug while his tail infuses your loose leaf tea! How cute. Perfect for a fall box, too.

thank you cards

Thank You Cards– These are from Carlton Cards. We got an entire set in our box with light blue envelopes included. I love this idea for the holiday season. Simple and functional.

infinity bracelet

Infinity Bracelet– This is a delicate gold bracelet with the infinity logo. It’s sizeable to any size wrist, too. I highly doubt this has any real gold in it, but it’s cute and would be nice with a sweater or a holiday outfit this season. It looks nice on.

Rachel Ray subscription

Rachel Ray Every Day Subscription– The bonus this month was a subscription to Rachel Ray’s magazine for 2 years. I don’t love magazines, but it might be worth browsing through since it’s free. I thought you’d have to do something to redeem the offer, but it appears that you’ll just start receiving the magazine in your mailbox.

I was really happy with this month’s box. The fringe scarf alone was worth the box for me. The other items were mere bonuses, and I liked all of them. I’m so excited about the robe for next month!

This month’s box had a Happy Thanksgiving theme! Watch me and the boys unbox HERE!

toys

Pet Lou – Lobster rope/plush toy

SPOT– ball and rope toy

treats

Pet Chef– No Guilt Treats (made with turkey, ginger pumpkin, and kale); 2 ounces each bag

chew

Smokehouse Pet Products– Bacon Twist

We also got a dog hat! I lost the picture I had of it on its own. My dogs’ ears are a bit too big for it (plus they hated it and tried to get it off), but how adorable is this! I love that Surprise My Pet has been sending seasonal accessory/clothing items. I would never buy this stuff for my dogs, but it is so cute. I actually died laughing when I put this on both of them.

I liked all of the items in this month’s box! As always, I’m impressed. If you have a dog, you should definitely consider this box!

This box also works great for adults! You can pay for this subscription with PayPal (which I love) so you can control how long you stay subscribed. No credit card is required. You get 30 individual sized snacks each month, including bars, cookies, chips, and fruit pouches.

I have to mention that I decided to cancel my subscription to this box. I’ve enjoyed the box, but there were so many repeats. It was no longer worth the cost to me since I wasn’t getting that much variety. I did love the snacks, though, and still recommend this box to you!

chips and popcorn

Dirty Original Recipe– Sweet Potato Chips (1.5 ounces)

479 Degrees– Popcorn in Pumpkin Pecan Praline (5 ounces!)

This popcorn is to die for good. I pretty much ate the entire 5 ounce bag in one sitting. Oops.

graham sticks and sesame sticks

Back to Nature – Honey Graham Sticks

Bella Rustico– Tocchetti Sesame Sticks (imported from Italy)

Both of these snacks were delicious. I already ate them both and loved them.

David’s Tea

David’s Tea – Sampler with 2 tea packets and a voucher for a free cup of tea

David’s Tea is located in Chicago (and I’m not sure where else). I’ve tried their tea before, and it’s decent. I know it gets rave reviews by people who live in Chicago. I’m excited to try the herbal sample we got. I don’t drink caffeinated tea.

Sheila G’s– Brownie Brittle in Salted Caramel

Snappers– Chocolate Pretzel Snacks

Both of these are DELICIOUS. We also got a coupon for a FREE bag of Snappers. Gosh I hope my store carries them, because they are a pretzel/chocolate delight.

18 Rabbbits Jr. – Granola Bar in Caramel Apple

I’ve had this brand before and love it. I am happy to try this new to me flavor! And it’s very appropriate for fall.

Biscoff – Cookies

These are delicious. There’s only one cookie in each packet, which is kind of a tease, so I ate both at once (and still wanted more).

Dilletante – Raspberry Truffles

Monbana– Dark and Milk Chocolates

Maui Whites – Cane Sugar

LWF usually sends a bunch of sweet treats during the holidays and I love that. I like that these are small, single portions so that I can have 1 or 2 at a time (and not an entire bag, though I wouldn’t complain if they sent me a whole bag of truffles).

coupons

We got a lot of great coupons this time around! I’m hoping my local store carries some of these items so that I can take advantage of the discounts.

stuffed turkey toy

Griggles – Stuffed Turkey Toy – $14.99

This toy is pretty big and adorable. It is supposed to have a squeaker in it, but I couldn’t find it. I’m sure my dogs will be able to scope it out!

Mirage Pet Products– Holiday Bow Tie – $10.99

This is such a cute idea! I like that we didn’t get another bandana in the box this month.

Weruva– Food Topper in Pumpkin Patch Up! – $3.99

Mandela in his bow tie!

this month’s treats

Blue Ridge Naturals– Sweet Tater Fries (5 ounces) – $12.99

I was pleased to see 2 full bags of treats in this month’s box! We tried out the sweet potato fries and my dogs loved them. They are big, too. Perfect for large dogs.

The total value of this month’s box is $52.95! I was really pleased with the variety in this box and the theme. I love the bow tie and the toy is also quite adorable. Well done (again), Pet Gift Box!

first look

Orange Glad nicely packages their boxes, and it’s always fun to see what treats I get each month! Watch my unboxing video HERE.

Orange Glad November 2015

This month, we got:

Shotwell Candy Co. – Tennessee Toffee

Seattle’s Chocolates– Thanks-olate Bar (Milk Chocolate and Toffee)

Dottie’s Delight– Maple Caramels

The Poisoned Apples – Salted Toffee Chocolate/Shortbread/Caramel Bar

Studmuffin Desserts– Bleeker Street Brittle

I loved the bar from The Poisoned Apples the most this month! I was only mildly satisfied with the box as a whole, though. So many items had toffee, so if you’re not into hard/toffee stuff, you probably wouldn’t get much use out of this box. Plus, Orange Glad usually sends at least 1 (or more) baked items like cookies or brownies, and that was missing from this box. I’m hoping for some cookies for December!

More about Orange Glad: $15/month + $4 shipping. Orange Glad sends a selection of artisan baked goods (cookies, pastries, etc.) from across the U.S. carefully selected and packaged. Coupon: $10 OFF your first box (more than 1/2 off!) here.

November Great Kids Snack Box

I was pretty happy with this box. Great Kids Snacks tends to send a lot of repeats (I’ve received more than half of these items before), but I’m OK with that since it’s usually items I like. I do wish they’d stop sending seaweed, because I don’t know too many people (and especially kids) who like it. I also don’t like the Dole oranges, because they are made in China (just a risk I’m not willing to take). I do love all the bars in this box, though, especially the 18 Rabbits Jr. and the Detour bar. I’m excited to try the new Outlaw bars that I’ve never seen before.

Surprise my Pet box

This month had a Halloween theme! I’m also pretty sure this was the first month Surprise My Pet used paper and a sticker. Nice touches! Watch our unboxing video HERE!

first look

the treats

The snacks this month were all great. I do wish there had been a larger bag of treats, but my dogs love all of this stuff, so it’s OK with me!

Pawsitively Gourmet– Halloween Cookie

My dogs LOVED this! The topping is yogurt (instead of icing). A cute addition to the Halloween box!

Puptato Chips – Sweet Potato Chips (2 ounces)

These are dried, but crunchy sweet potatoes. A great, healthy snack for dogs!

Etta Says – Crunchy Rabbit Chew

We have tons of these chews in my house and love getting them in boxes. My dogs drool over these.

the toys

The toys were both appropriately themed for Halloween! My dogs rip up stuffed toys pretty quickly, but Mandela usually carries them around for a few days before he decides to destroy them. And he loves them, so I don’t mind getting them in the box (sometimes he’s not as interested in the very durable toys designed for large dogs).

Vo-Toys– Tricksters Toys in Spider and Eye

Halloween t-shirt

We also get a Halloween t-shirt in the box! It is an XL, but if you have a dog over 60 ish pounds, it will be too small. I appreciate the thought and idea. Mandela can wear this, though it’s a big snug across his chest. I didn’t get a photo, but check out our unboxing video (link above) to see me put it on him. I let my neighbor’s Corgi wear it and it fit him perfectly. Cute idea for Halloween and not something I’ve seen in a dog box before.

There was no product card this month with prices or information, so I don’t have prices for you. But if you do the annual plan, this box would only be $19, which is a great deal for all the goodies we got. I appreciate the attention to the theme, which is something new Surprise My Pet is introducing. Overall, I thought this was a nice box!
