My Klutchclub box is finally here after much anticipation! This is another fitness/wellness targeted box that I have heard great things about and since I am ADDICTED to subscription box services, of course I had to try it! So let’s get started 🙂
When I grabbed this box from the mail I noticed it was really heavy which excited me! The box it self is really cute when you open it.
Then you pull it out of the sleeve and VOILA! Your samples 🙂
I got lots of snacks this month, which is good because I am always looking for healthy, diet friendly foods to try. So the first thing was GoNola “Wild Berry Wave”. We haven’t tried it yet but who doesn’t love granola. UPDATE: My mom ate this and said it was really great! This is by Nature’s Hand and actually comes in these little 140 calorie single serving packets. They retail for $0.99 a piece.
We also got some POPCORNers in sea salt flavor and I did try these. They were really good! They do taste like popcorn but they are thicker. They don’t really seem that healthy, but I am sure they are better than potato chips. This is definitely a snack I will be purchasing. You can order them on their website in a box of 40 packets for $31.60, making this sample worth $0.79.
The next item was the All Natural Vegetarian Japanese Delight Seaweed Salad. I am a little scared to try this but I will don’t worry. So update coming on this later! You can get a 6 pk of these for $12, making this sample worth about $2.00.
I also got a Twistband. I have seen these in a lot of boxes lately. They are “luxury” hair ties that aren’t supposed to damage your hair or leave a crease. I used this once and I am very finicky about my hair ties. I normally use Goody Stayput High Performance Hair Ties because the little bit of rubber that is exposed really holds my hair well. This hair tie really solidified why I don’t buy anything other than my Goody bands. As soon as I started running it started slipping out of my hair. I hate loose ponytails. So while this concept is great, I will not be purchasing any more of these.
I also got some Biopharma Supplements. There were two different varieties that came. The nanogreens were supposed to have a natural green apple flavor and supply your 7-13 servings of fruits and vegetables for the day. This tasted so bad. It tasted like medicine. I have had other supplements that tasted much better. The other kind was the nanolean, which is supposed to help with weight management. It was a little more tolerable, but it tasted like Flintstones vitamins crushed up in water. lol Not great. So I probably wouldn’t buy anymore of these. The nanogreens come in a month supply of 30 pks. I got 2 of those packets valued at $3.33 for the both of them. The nanoleans also come in packs of 30 but it is recommended that you drink it twice a day. They are on sale right now so they are about $1 a piece, making my samples worth $2.
The item that was making my box so heavy was my Alo drink. It’s called Awaken and it has wheatgrass and aloe vera. Aloe vera is commonly used to treat burns. My mom had one growing in our kitchen window and would always break off a leaf when we got burnt. Anyway, apparently drinking it is really good for you too. There are tons of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. I was hesitant to try it. I never really thought about ingesting it. But it is actually really really good. It’s not good for people that have problems with texture because there are little pieces of aloe vera pulp in it. It actually tastes really great! It reminds me of the citrus green tea that Lipton makes. You can buy 12 bottle packs of this for $23.64, making it about $1.87 a bottle.
That was the last of my samples but I also got some gift cards. One was to Tieks which is designer flats and also a joke! The gift card was for $50, no minimum purchase required BUT the cheapest thing on the site is $165!!!! For a pair of flats!!! REALLY?! I think not. So that is worthless to me.
What I did enjoy though, was the iBodyFit.com one year trial! They claim it is a $155 value. It’s pretty cool actually. You can watch different exercise videos or workout routine videos. There is a lot of helpful information on there so I look forward to playing around on that site.
The last thing we received this month was a $10 gift card for GoSportID.com Again this has no minimum purchase required and this you can actually use to purchase a whole item. If you already have one of these bands you can purchase 2 of the color packs. Or you can use it for almost all of a new band purchase. I will probably order one of these because it is a really great idea.
So the value of my box only came to $10.68, which isn’t great considering I spent $18 on this box! I don’t feel like the gift cards count since you really have to spend money to use them. I have noticed in the past that Klutchbox does a lot of the gift cards. So I am going to give it another 2 months and hopefully the value of this box will rise a bit. I liked the majority of my products but I can’t justify the pricetag of this box as of right now. So we will see what the future holds!
