OREO Cookie Club is a subscription box that delivers two deliciously different OREO experiences – sometimes a new flavor, sometimes a familiar favorite – with fun OREO swag and a delicious recipe.

OREO Cookie Club March 2018 Review

OREO launched a cookie club subscription box a few months ago and we had to check it out. It doesn't come with info cards detailing what you get, so I do my best to find the flavors online and try to estimate the value of the included OREO-inspired gift.

This was the last of our 3-month subscription, so they sent a reminder card with a 15% discount code to renew.

OREO Big Crunch Bar - Retail Value $5.99

Wow, ok. I didn't know this product existed. A GIGANTIC candy bar made with Milka chocolate and OREO cookies?! If nothing else, this subscription keeps me up-to-date on the latest OREO products. If you're not familiar with Milka, they are a really popular European brand that uses alpine milk in their silky smooth chocolate. This is a great partnership, IMO. To be clear, this is 10.5 oz of sweetness (approximately 10" x 3.5"), divided into bite-sized squares. If you've had a chocolate covered OREO, that is basically what we are working with except that this is literally the milkiest creamy chocolate on earth. It's so decadent, I think I'm in love.

They've also included a coupon for one free regular size (1.44 oz) OREO Chocolate Candy Bar made with the same Milka chocolate. The retail value of the candy bar is about $0.89, but seeing as though I'd have to make a trip to get it, I won't be including it towards the overall value of the box.

Limited Edition Peeps OREOs, 10.7 oz - Retail Value $2.99

I'm not one of those people who is obsessed with Peeps and opens the package for them to get stale before eating them, but these OREOs are darn good. The filling is a pale purple color that's perfect for Spring, and they have the bunny or classic chick Peep shape on one side of the cookie. The filling itself does taste just like marshmallow which fulfills the Peep flavor rather well. I'd much rather enjoy these cookies than actual Peeps.

Per usual, they've included a recipe for something fun that utilizes one of the OREO products. This time, it's for cookie ball pops (aka cake pops).

Lastly is the "OREO Swag". This one comes in an OREO branded soft cloth pouch.

Like the previous boxes, I'm not super impressed with the branded item. It's on par with something I'd imagine getting for free at some kind of OREO promotional event or something you'd collect proof of purchases to mail away for.

They're the classic wayfarer style in white, but have an OREO pattern on both of the outside arms.

Here's a look at the other side (which is the same). I mean, they're all fine and dandy. A good pair to wear for a laugh to an amusement park and then not be too sad if they fall off your face while on a roller coaster.

The bottom of the box declares that life is sweeter in the cookie club. True or false?

Verdict: OREO Cookie Club Subscription Box costs $19.99 per box (a minimum purchase of a 3-month subscription for $59.97) and I received 2 full-size OREO cookie products and a pair of sunglasses. I'm going to treat the recipe card and the coupon for the candy bar as bonuses since the value isn't exact. Since the Peeps cookies and Big Crunch bar are available online and total $8.98, that would mean the sunglasses would have to have a value of $11.01 to break even on this box (or $16.01 to hit their estimated $24.99 value). That's a bit of a stretch for me, but may be worth it to others. Either way, this box isn't really serving me much excitement. They're simply sending OREOs I can get at the grocery store and a promo item that, although is exclusive, doesn't blow my mind.

To Wrap Up:

Can you still get this box if you sign up today? After digging around the questions on the Amazon order page, it looks like you have to order the month before what would be your first delivery. If that's the case, you'd receive the April box if you order today.

Value Breakdown: At $19.99 for this box, you're paying approximately $6.66 per item. 😟

Welllll, they did learn their lesson about their decision of Peeps color this year to be something other than hot pink after that fiasco.

I need 4 packages of oreos plus everything else included to even think of this sub Then the cost would be worth it
I find it a huge fail and a rip off.
Oreo they should be ashamed for taking advantage of people.
This whole box makes me think twice of even buying them in the store at all there are generic brand cookies just as good.

I’m really trying to find value here. My sister is an Oreo lover. She lives across the country so if I want to send her some Oreos, I’d have to post shipping. Stick with me here. I’d need a box, padding, etc and then they still might not make it on one piece.

So if I considered the time of going to the store and purchasing the cookies, then getting a box and bubble wrap, the cost of the shipping and standing in the post office line, it COULD be worth the cost one time. I mean like a birthday joke, one time.

I still don’t get it. Who is subscribing to this??

Here for the comments too! And I might grab that bar next time I’m at the grocery. I guess their point is brand awareness but this marketing is paid for by deceived customers (thinking they’d get more).

I agree with the other comments…stop reviewing this box.
It’s completely overpriced and ridiculous.

I personally am shocked that they did not toss in two more packets of hot cocoa mix. I mean, I was SURE I was going to see them again in the picture.

I have seen both the Oreo chocolate bar ($5) and the Peeps Oreos ($3.50) in the past two days so you’re really paying $12 for some sunglasses which look low quality. I’d be really upset if I bought this box.

Wait, so you really have to commit to three boxes at a time. Wow, pretty shady

Yes! I was coming here to say just that. Like, will I ever buy this box? No, but I am so curious about what they are peddling here. Insanity.

The cost of these few cookies would buy a lot of personal care kits and tees for ladies in a womens’ shelter, just saying.

I usually skip the reviews, but with you saying ” Up for renewal”, I just wanted to say I think whomever paid for this was seriously taken by the pocketbook and this sub. needs to go away.

Unless they are sending this to yall FREE, I don’t think anyone (readers) would be upset if you stopped reviewing this one. lol. Its just absurd for the price. $10 would be better.

This is going to be a short lived box. Those Peeps are going for $2.5 at Meijers. I will say everyone in my house loves them. This box is not worth the price. They need to throw in some shirts, hats, etc… In addition to the cheap glasses. An oreo cookie beach towel would be nice for an upcoming box.

The “value” here is a joke…no way would I sub to this box!

This is such a mess. Maybe if there were three full-size packs of Oreos with a theme and cuter swag.

I would never get this box but the idea is great – just WAY too expensive in my option. But those Oreo sunglasses…kinda fun and cute!

Thumbs down on this box Maybe if they had 20 dollars of cookies plus coupons and bonus items it would work.

The Milka bars are available on the checkout line of my local supermarket. I believe they now have a mint flavor as well. This subscription box is a #fail IMO.

Boo, OREO. With it being an authentic OREO club, they could afford to put in cookies that are a higher retail value since they supply them, and you know their cost is much, much less than the retail value. And better swag.

Maybe they spent all the profits from the boxes on that pretty box.
