MunchPak Review and Discount

MunchPak is a new snack subscription box.  MunchPak sent me this box for review.  Munchpak is not a healthy snack box.  It is just an assortment of some of the best snacks.  I do not eat super , it was healthy and when I want a snack, I grab chips or something sweet.  Munchpak says ” Let’s face it; even those who claim to be on strict diets are guilty of sneaking in their favorite brand of potato chips or candy bar from time to time. Our goal is to provide you with new things to munch on every month. We send it you all packed up and ready to eat. Call it a MunchPak, if you will.”  Seriously, this is my new favorite snack box.

Bluum is $24.95 a month and each month, you get an assortment of goodies from lotions to toys and books for your child.  Bluum curates each box by ages.  Each theme is the same every month for every age, but the products within each box are different from month to month and from box to box.  Bluum can be a bit different but I always like my boxes.  I have heard they can be hard to cancel, so sign up with a re-loadable prepaid card.
