Box of Happies Subscription Box Review – February 2015

I just subscribed and paid by paypal on March 3. I haven’t received a tracking number. Do they only ship at a certain time of the month? I’ve emailed the company but no response. Any advice?

I just received my Box of Happies. The only differences were that my bracelet had cream colored “pearls” and my scrubber was green. I thought the heart necklace was really cute and I actually really like the pot scrubber. That being said,the value was just not there. I received it AFTER Valentine’s Day and I ordered it months ago ( to be here in February). If I was going to use the cards (I wouldn’t) I’d have to wait till next year. I don’t think I’d order another box.

With a little more design, those cards would be great for kids to exchange at school, or to give to a teacher.

I love the idea of this box, but not what’s in it. I would consider subscribing if the items were of nicer quality, but these just aren’t up to par.

I ended up getting 1 box a while ago, and I liked it better then this one. It had chocolate soap in it. For around $30 I found this box to better then some boxes that sell for the same price point. If they included an etsy beauty product ( like a soap, bath fizzies, that type of thing ) in every box for variety i would like it better. I don’t even look at values in this box, because a bracelet that supposely has a value of $5 or $8 on etsy, I’ve seen similar ones sell for $10-$15 elsewhere. Even though this box is not my style, i still will purchase the ocassional one time box.

Yikes! This is a terrible box….very tacky. I’m baffled that they would even considered giving cards out like that. I think it shows that they aren’t looking to send quality boxes to subscribers. Instead they’re trying to get away with giving out the cheapest stuff so that they can make the biggest profit possible, even if it’s complete junk. That doesn’t always work when everyone can obviously see how bad the stuff is….come on….

I enjoy reading the reviews, but the box isn’t for me. I don’t share the same tastes as the curator. My younger son can create similar cards with his foam stickers. I would have a hard time being satisfied with the cards especially at the price listed.

I laughed out loud when I saw what those cards retailed for. OMG! I would not subscribe to this box. I did think the jewelry was okay. But those cards…really!?

Over a year ago I bought my first and last Box of Happies. Since then I haven’t seen anything which makes me regret cancelling.
I would have been rather annoyed to receive those cards-with-foam-heart efforts; I wouldn’t even feel right sending them to anyone. I make better cards than that and I’m a rank amateur.
I’m all for supporting etsy artisans, and shop regularly on this wonderful site. Box of Happies doesn’t appear to be well curated considering the massive pool of talent out there.

I can’t believe those cards! Maybe my kids can open their own etsy store
