This is my seventh box since deciding to try Bluum. Bluum‘s pricing is very similar to Citrus Lane, at $25 per box on a month to month basis, $23 per month for a three month subscription (less than CL), $21 per month for a six month subscription (the same as CL), and even less than that for a one year subscription. Also of note is that Bluum offers more ways to earn rewards and free boxes than Citrus Lane does, if that’s important to you. I’m still pretty impressed with the box. I was told that Bluum would primarily send samples, but I believe it to be of phenomenal value.
My box this month was the box for nineteen month olds. This box didn’t appear to have a theme.
1. Han’s Blueberry Shampoo from Circle of Friends
Price: $12.20
Status: Meh
Comments: I swear that the people who pick the items for these boxes think Baby Girl is perpetually dirty and getting bathed every ten minutes. I really have no need for this shampoo, especially since most toddler body washes are both body wash and shampoo, and she doesn’t have much in the way of hair. On the plus side though, the ingredients are good, it’s organic, and it smells nice.
2. Backyard Buddy Blocks from BeginAgain
Price: $13.00
Status: Great
Comments: These are pretty cool, sturdy little toys! They function as both regular wooden blocks, and as a type of puzzle with plenty of possibility! I’m also really relieved that we didn’t get the farm animal version, since I am pretty sick of farm animals in everything Baby Girl owns. A neat addition to the growing toy collection.
3.Pusharounds Duck from BeginAgain
Price: $13.00
Status: Great
Comments: I love this little wheeled toy! It’s a very sturdy wooden toy, and I am in love with the little rubber washers around the wheels that keep it running smoothly and quietly on my hardwood floors!
4. Disposable Compressed Travel Wipes from iPlay
Price: $4.50
Status: Good
Comments: These are an interesting little item. I have yet to use them, but they’re so compact, they might work really super well when space is an issue, like on a plane!
5. Tangerine Melon Hand Scrub from Deep Steep
Price: $9.95
Status: Meh
Comments: Not really a fan of the Mommy items that are always in these boxes. This is a rather pricy hand scrub. I know that hands are abused and neglected, but I just don’t get excited about this stuff.
So was it worth it? Definitely. The total value of the box was $52.65, compared to a $25 purchase price. After subtracting the items I will probably regift, I got around $35 worth of value, which is still above the purchase price. Plus, now I have some really high quality items to gift my mom friends with tinier babies!
