Each box comes with a card detailing the items included.
Girls Can Tell Gift Co. Tea Towel - Value $15
This illustration of a Philadephia style pretzel is so fun - and I could see this being a thoughtful souvenir gift, so I think it is a great addition to the box.
Hand in Hand Shea Butter Lip Balm in Rose Water - Value $8
I love the Hand in Hand brand (they support fair trade and work with natural ingredients), but this lip balm is a little too rosy for me. I like rose scents sometimes, but this one will be gifted/swapped!
Candelles Vanilla Maple Candle - Value $7.50
This brand is my favorite discovery in the box. They make their candles with 100% natural soy wax produced by U.S farmers, all natural fragrance oils, non-treated lead-free cotton wicks, and no dyes. And now I want to buy all the candles in their Fall Collection. (I've never seen a Sugared Sweet Potato candle before, and I want to know what it smells like!)
This candle is just as sweet smelling as you'd expect, and perfect for fall.
Stroopies - Value $2.50
These are one of my husband's favorite treats to go with coffee. (And I just found out they make a gluten-free version!)
Verdict: This box has a value of about $33. That's typical for Hammock Pack - the value of the box is pretty close to the cost. I like this box for the curation, and with the exception of the lip balm, this is a good fit for me.
What do you think of the September 2015 Hammock Pack? Is it a good representation of souvenirs from Philadelphia?
