Phone Case of the Month Review May 2016

My new phone case arrived Saturday!  I get a new one every month from Phone Case of the Month for only $10.  

Phone Case of the Month Review ~ April 2016

I love that my phone gets "inked" every 30 days thanks to Phone Case of the Month!  This is my third case and I've been so happy with this service.

Phone Case of the Month Review ~ March 2016

I recently upgraded my phone to a Samsung Galaxy S6 and thought I'd subscribe to Phone Case of the Month.  This is my second case and I love it!

 Every case is only $10 a month with free shipping.  It comes in a soft pouch with a coordinating detail card.  The cases are more fashion forward than protective.  However, I've dropped my phone several times in their cases and have not damaged the phone.  Last month's case did crack at the corner though.

Kawaii Box Review November 2014

This is my last Kawaii Box for a little while.  You had to be home for delivery of this box, which my husband and I both work and it was difficult getting to the post office before closing to pick it up.  

Kawaii Box Review October 2014

Kawaii is a Japanese term for cute.  This box is called the Kawaii Box and ships from Japan.  It's full of cute kawaii items for $18.90 a month, free shipping.

Gizmo Crate Review September 2014

Here is my review of the September 2014 Gizmo Crate.  It was late, but I did prefer this month over last month's box.  Gizmo Crate sends technology related gadgets and foodie items for as low as $29 a box.  They have been in a shipping and communication slump lately and I'm hoping they can pull themselves out of it because there is a high demand for this type of box.  

iDiscoverBox Review September 2014

I'm acquiring quite the collection of cell phone covers!  This month I received 2 phone cases and a pair of earbuds from iDiscoverBox.  My subscription plan lets me get 3 items for my cell phone every month for only $9.99!

 Metallic Red Hard Plastic Case ~ I received this case in my June box, but I will give it to my daughter's friend who has a Note 3.  It does look better in person than in the picture.

Gizmo Crate Review August 2014

No, I'm not late posting this.  I just received the August Gizmo Crate today, the 20th of September.  Apparently the company relocated this month to a larger warehouse and experienced a tragedy amongst the staff.  Let's hope they can get September's box out in ten days.

 Gizmo Crate is a subscription service that sends out gadgets and foodie items each month.  A monthly subscription is $39, a 3-month subscription is $105, a 6-month subscription is $192, and a year's worth of Gizmo Crates is $348.

Kawaii Box Review September 2014

We subscribed to another kawaii service!  This one is called Kawaii Box and sends 10 - 12 kawaii items from Japan and Korea.  It's $18.90 a month, shipping included.  

Kawaiiness Kawaii Box Review September 2014

We just can't get enough Kawaii at our house!  Our adorable box of goodies arrived today.  This package comes from www.gokawaiiness.com and is called the Kawaiiness Kawaii Box.  It's $20.00 with shipping included.  I've been very impressed with the shipping of this box.  So far, she has mailed at the beginning of the month and continues shipment throughout the month as orders come in.

 This is not a recurring shipment.  You must order each month or buy a 2-month or 3-month plan.

 Cute Mini Erasers ~ These fruit-shaped mini erasers make mistakes fun.  Girls love using fun erasers at school.  I'm sure I'll have no problem finding someone to reward these to.

 Rilakkuma Stickers ~ Rilakkuma is a popular kawaii character.  This set has two sheets of stickers just waiting to decorate notebooks and folders!

 Vitamin Ballpen ~ This is a fun novelty item.  It's shaped like a vitamin capsule but opens up to a retractable ballpoint pen!  Once retracted, it holds its shape well.  I think the cute face at the end of the pen will help make writing checks a little easier.

 Hello Kitty Sanrio License Re-Ment ~ Re-ment is a Japanese toy company established in 1988.  They currently sell a line of miniature food, furniture, and animal figures, as well as cell phone charms, doll fashions, and magnets.  We got a cell phone charm.  It resembles a snow cone treat, but the ice is shaped like Hello Kitty's face.  Maybe we can use it as a zipper pull on Olivia's backpack.

 Yan Yan ~It's a treat from Meiji - Yan Yan choco-hazelnut biscuit snack.  This snack combines crispy cracker sticks with a smooth hazelnut-chocolate dip.

 Glam Ponytail Holder ~ This is not your ordinary ponytail holder.  It's very sparkly and fun!  I think this color will look great in my daughter's hair!

 Kawaii Leopard Bracelet ~ I can't believe the last two Kawaiiness Kawaii boxes came with jewelry!  This is a simple cord bracelet with enough detail to dress up any wrist.  

 Bunny Plush Charm ~ My daughter loves this and the jumbo squishy.  The eyes on the bunny are actually really cute and remind me of the La La Loopsy dolls.  

 Hello Kitty Sweets Cafe Jumbo Squishy ~ Squishies are so much fun!  This one is shaped like Hello Kitty's head, but looks like a donut with sprinkles.  It feels extra squishy.

Comment your thoughts on this box below.  This is the 2nd month for the Kawaiiness Kawaii Box and I have been happy with both boxes.  We love squishies and snacks!  

I purchased this month's box for $18.00.  It was on sale for Labor Day. 

iDiscoverBox Review August 2014

I just received my August iDiscoverBox today!  Even though it arrived in September, I was really happy with my cell phone accessories.  

 I get accessories for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3.  iDiscoverBox usually sends two cases and an additional item.  Monthly subscriptions are $15.99, which includes shipping.  The best value is a one-year subscription for $9.99 a month, totaling $119.88.

Gizmo Crate Review July 2014

August Coupon Code at the Bottom!!

Gizmo Crate has pushed back their shipping date to the 30th of every month.  With school starting last week, I was extremely busy preparing for students and am a little delayed with this posting.  My July box arrived sometime in the beginning of August.

 8-Bit Sunglasses ~ It's so hip to be square now-a-days.  This novelty item is so much fun and makes a great conversation piece.  My son has confiscated them and proudly wears them to school.  All of the other students love them because the glasses remind them of Minecraft.

iDiscoverBox Review July 2014

I'm impressed.  This is the first month I've received a phone case with an actual design on it!  iDiscoverBox is a subscription company that sends 3 cell phone accessories every month.  I usually get two phone cases and an additional item.  For a 1-year subscription, you only pay $9.99 a month.

 USB Car Charger Adapter ~ These are so handy for the drive home from work.  I like to charge my phone during my thirty minute return drive.  This adapter plugs into your lighter and you attach your USB charging cable to it.  

Quarterly Co. Harry Shum Jr. Box Review July 2014 #HSJ01

My long awaited Harry Shum Jr. Quarterly box has finally arrived!  Inside were four items that appealed to both myself and my husband!  This will be a shared box between the two of us.  I'm very happy with the #HSJ01 and can't wait for Harry's second box.

iDiscoverBox Review June 2014

Time to change my phone case!  Have you seen the studies on how dirty cell phones are?  If you don't take time to clean your phone on a frequent basis, you should at least change your phone case every month.  iDiscoverBox sends 3 cell phone accessories each month for as low as $9.99!

 Not only do they send phone accessories, iDiscoverBox also sends phone tips.  The only thing is, I keep getting the same tip each month!  I'm sure when they start getting more business they will add more phone tips.

 Purple Rubber Phone Shell ~ I love these phone shells!  They aren't as bulky as a case, making it easier to get my Note 3 in and out of my purse.  Two months ago I got a transparent purple shell and it protected my phone quite well.  

 Metallic Red Hard Plastic Case ~ This case is prettier in person than in the picture.  It's a snap on case and has a metallic sheen to it.  I like this color!

 Pink & White Soft Rubber & Plastic Shell ~ This is my favorite case in the box!  The white part is the rubber shell and the pink body is a snap-on hard plastic cover.  I absolutely love this one!

I look forward to my iDiscoverBox and changing out my phone case.  I'm still hoping for an armband and a charging cable!

Gizmo Crate Review May 2014

Check out the latest Gizmo Crate here!

I can't believe how awesome this company is!  Just received my fourth Gizmo Crate and am so excited to share everything with you.  I have a 12 month subscription with Gizmo Crate for $29 a box.  You can also choose to pay every month.  If you do this, the box is $39 a month.  Shipping is free!  Gizmo Crate has done an excellent job finding the coolest technology gadgets and food items.

 Stylus Dust Plug ~ I love using a stylus, but I frequently misplace them.  How convenient that this one plugs into the audio jack.  It says it is for the iPhone and iPad, but it works on my Galaxy Note 3 and my son's iPod.  He took it from me and I'm afraid he's claimed it for his own!  He thinks it's neat because it extends.

 Sour Patch Kids ~ First they're sour, then they're sweet.  Yum!  I'm eating these before my daughter gets home!

 Stick-it Pad ~ I just received two of these today - 1 in my Gizmo Crate and 1 in our Nerd Block.  This is so nice, because now my husband can use the second one.  This pad is designed to stick to your dashboard and keep your cell phone in place.  You can also place it on your desk and keep your office supplies in one spot.  

 Solar Charger ~ This will come in handy at work.  I don't know why, but everybody always borrows my phone chargers.  Now I will have a backup charger for when I loan my corded charger out.  This uses the sun's energy to charge any device with a USB connection cable!  What a great accessory to have while camping.

 Bluetooth Wireless Mini Headset ~ I have one friend who loves to give me a hard time when I use my Note 3 to make a phone call.  Now, I may be spared from her jabs with this little thing!  

 Bluetooth Remote Shutter ~ This is a neat gadget!  It's a battery operated shutter remote.  It works with Apple and Android products.  If your product isn't supported, you can download the Camera360 app.  Doing so will allow you to use the shutter.  It has a 10 m distance.  I can't wait to use it for family photos!

I LOVE my Gizmo Crate!  I get such unique gadgets that make life easier and more fun.  Can't wait to see the future boxes!

iDiscoverBox Review May 2014

 iDiscoverBox is a subscription service for cell phone accessories.  Every month I get a variety of cases and assorted items for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3.  I purchased a year subscription for $9.99 a month, free shipping.

 Screen Protector ~ I love screen protectors!  They prevent scratches and help protect my screen.

Pink Shell Case ~ I got this case in my February box.  It's a pink rubberized plastic shell that easily attaches to my phone.  Since this is a repeat, the first person to request this case in the comments may have it!  I will drop it in a padded envelope and mail it out!

Flip Cover ~ My first flip cover!  It's different and very slim.  The cover has a crosshatch design.  My phone snaps right in and stays in!

I enjoy getting new stuff for my phone!  I'm still hoping for an armband and a charging cable.  A holster case or wallet case would be nice too.  Overall, I think this is a great deal for cell phone accessories.  I've noticed the iPhone cases iDiscoverBox sends out are a little more decorative.  I wish there were more fashionable cases for the Note.  However, I only had one case for my last phone, so I'm definitely happy with all of my new cases and accessories!

iDiscoverBox Review April 2014

This month I got a stylus and two cases from iDiscoverBox!  For $10 a month, I love this subscription service!

 For some odd reason, I keep getting the same "phone tip" card.  This is the third month in a row I have received the S-Pen tip.  

Stylus ~ This is a basic stylus without the ballpoint pen option.  It is lightweight and works well on my phone.

Black Kickstand Case ~ This is a sturdy, hard shell case with a portrait oriented kickstand.  

 Transparent Purple Rubber Phone Shell ~ I'm not sure how well this shell will protect my phone, but I love it!  It doesn't give my phone that bulky feel that most cases do.  It's also very easy to put on and take off.  

I'm really enjoying changing phone cases every month.  iDiscoverBox is just so practical for lengthening the life of your cell phone.  

iDiscoverBox Review March 2014

 iDiscoverBox sends 3 cell phone accessories each month.  This is what I received for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3:  2 cases with kickstands and 1 USB wall charger plug-in.

 USB Wall Charger Plug-In ~ This may come in handy at work.  iDiscoverBox also sends a cell phone use tip each month.  This is the same tip I got last month.  

Black & White Silicone Case with Kickstand ~ I love cases with kickstands!  This case is heavy duty and really protects your phone.  It provides more protection on the front of the phone too!

Red & Black Plastic/Rubber Case with Kickstand ~ This case is very bold and eye-catching.  I haven't seen an off-centered kickstand, but it looks good.  I have a friend with the same model phone and I may give this one to him.  It looks a little too masculine for me.

I'm enjoying being able to switch out my cell phone cases.  Hopefully there will be a future shipment that includes a charging cable to go with the plug!  That would be ideal to have at work!  This is one of my smaller subscription boxes, but it is very affordable and practical.  If you have a smartphone, you need to subscribe to this company!
