3-Month Subscription To Conscious Box Giveaway

Just the other day was chatting (on facebook) with a couple of friends about all these monthly "boxes" you can subscribe to.  How some of them appear to be awesome deals with yummy, healthy, or eco-safe products and others not so much. 

Imagine my surprise when I just clicked on my new email and saw an email from Jameson Morris from Conscious Box? Some of you may know that I have been trying to get healthy/stay healthy since April of last year. It got to the point that I just needed to do something. I didn't want to go the surgery route, so my choice was to just start watching what I eat and doing some walking.  Though I have had some ups and downs, for the most part I have been going on the right path.  Dropping over 100 pounds, and not giving up the food that I do like to have all the time.  Just yesterday I had pizza, shhhhhhh, don't tell anyone, lol. 

So, I have been checking out these monthly subscription boxes to see what is offered and for the price.  I am on a super strict budget so it has to be a great deal, and I would like something healthy.  I'm always looking for new snacks that I can grab and go. Right now my snacks consist of fruit and pretzels and I know that I need something different to stay on this path, so I don't get bored.

In comes Conscious Box!

I just spent about 15 minutes on the site just surfing around and seeing what they have to offer. 

You can get three different types of boxes: Classic, Gluten Free or Vegan! Plus, you can get subscriptions by the month, every 3-months, every 6-months or a full year!  Items are from Bath and Beauty, Snacks, Home and Garden and more.  You will discover natural products from companies that you may have never heard of or known to exist.  You are bound to find a favorite product that you would like to have over and over again. 

Also, if you go to Conscious Box and register (by the way this is free, no credit card info required for signing up) you can earn points from doing surveys, giving reviews, etc. I earned 5 points by just registering and tweeting it.  You can use the points for purchases.

These boxes are $19.95 a month and that includes shipping.  Right now if you use the code: DISCOVERNATURAL you can get 50% of your subscription.

Guess what? Conscious Box is offering a giveaway for my readers.  You will have a chance to win a 3-month subscription to Conscious Box, so you can try out these items yourself! 

So would you like to win? Just go to Conscious Box and register (again free, no credit card or purchases required) and sign up, then fill out the rafflecopter form and you are good to go!

Giveaway is open to residents of the US 18+ and will end on April 1, 2013 at 11:59 p.m.


The Daddy Diaper Pack Review And Giveaway



 Okay ladies, here it is!

The perfect expectant father gifts

I know that it is somewhat easy to buy a new mom a gift, but what about new daddy gifts or daddy to be gifts?   Well, I have the answer for you, right here.  You really have to check this out, this is very cool and even my tough guy farm boy hubby had no problem carrying this.  

It is the Daddy Diaper Pack!

 This thing is huge!  Carries it all.  Everything the Daddy on the go would need when he is out and about with the little one. 

Please click the video link so that you can see the initial story of DaddyScrubs.  Sorry that it isn't embedded for you, been having issues finding it on youtube.


This video tells the story on how Robert "Daddy" Nickell came up with the idea for DaddyScrubs.

So what is the Daddy Diaper Pack? Oh, you will love this (like I mentioned before).

The Features:
 
- Two roomy compartments for diapers, wipes, clothes, and toys

- Insulated cooler pocket for snacks

- Organizer pocket for keys, money, pacifiers, and small toys

- Fleece lined pocket for sunglasses and more

- Mesh side pockets for extra baby bottles and water bottles
This retails for $69.95. But you can use BLOG13 coupon code and get 10% off items purchased on their website. 

Hubby's opinion?  He loved the many pockets so that he could store everything that needed to be stored.  The pockets aren't deep, so nothing get lost in there and plus there is room for his shades, his drink, to put his phone, vehicle keys, etc.  Plus, you have all the room to store everything that you need to store for the little one.  He also liked the fact that it is very durable.  He really isn't gentle on things like this.  Holes happen, straps get broke, but that doesn't appear to be the case here. These straps are durable. 

He didn't mention this part, but I will. It has insulation in it to keep all those snacks/drinks/juice/bottles cold.  How awesome is that? 

This pack is huge! You'll love it.  We love it! Going to come in handy for all those daddy out trips or even road trips with the family.  Oh and ladies, I know it says "I'm The Daddy" on it.  But, girl, you can use it too!!!


I wanted to get pics of hubby with it on, but he is rather shy when it comes to stuff like this! 

Overall his opinion was that it is a really nice product.  Does what it is suppose to do and more! Holds everything you need! He gave it two thumbs up! Says it is so much better than carrying a "flowery diaper bag." 

So, would you like one?

These are available to purchase on the DaddyScrubs website, again with coupon code "BLOG13" you can get 10% off, or you can try your hand and enter here for your shot at winning one!

Just fill out the rafflecopter form below for your shot at winning.

Giveaway is open to the US 18+ and will end on March 27, 2013 at 11:59 p.m. est.
