CAUSEBOX Spring 2021 Box Spoiler #5 + 20% Off

Wow still waiting on my spring box what’s with the long delay

I for one am extremely disappointed in this box. They could have gotten more bang if they had shopped at Dollar General. The only thing I will probably use is the canvas tote, but it’s not like we don’t get one of those in almost every box.

Causebox has had a few outstanding boxes. This is not one of them.

I won’t skip this season since I already skipped winter (which wasn’t at all a good box to me since I possess all items it had).

Having been a subscriber to both FFF and Causebox, I still prefer Causebox. I have kept tabs on FFF every season, and each time they amaze me at how much mass manufacturing junk (mostly China-made at sweatshops) they bundle together while massively inflating the value. I’m familiar with manufacturing, quality control and trade routes so I know how much these things actually cost.

Not that Causebox doesn’t inflate their values, because they do. But Causebox always includes at least some handmade stuff by artisans / under-privileged women. They’re definitely made with more care.

IMHO Causebox > FFF

So not impressed with this box. Would cancel if I hadn’t accidentally missed the renewal date while waiting to try to find out what the spoilers are. They must do that on purpose to get you. It just doesn’t feel like you’re getting a lot for the value. I am getting the blue light glasses and will hope they help my eyes after staring at a screen, as well as the tech organizer. Those are things that may be useful that I probably wouldn’t have bought on my own.

Really happy with this box! I chose the power bank (I don’t have one and both my daughter and myself need one), the organizer roll, the striped tote, nail treatments, and the setting spray.

So if you’re quarterly you can’t select any of your products?

Quick question- how do you know if you successfully skipped a box beside the email response confirm. It seems it still showing me the customized box section. I would assume that this would be blanked out and unselectable if we skip a box (I didn’t touch this section just incase it cancelled by skip request)

Overall not all boxes equal. Some are great for others or not. I don’t like how we don’t even know all the spoilers in time to make a decision to skip. I just skipped because I didn’t like the options that they gave in the beginning. I need to at least like 2 things in the box to make a go at it.

I’m disappointed in this box, but I guess they can’t all be winners.

I’m getting (with the “to me” value):

Power bank – $20, as that’s what I’ve paid in the past for similar power banks. I already have five pairs of blue light glasses and multiple sets of cloth napkins, though. I also have lots of power banks, but I don’t mind having one in my car, one at home, one in my purse, one in my backpack, etc.

Tech roll – $0, as I wouldn’t buy any of these things. I may use this, though. I wouldn’t use the collapsible cup or the exercise bands.

Grey bag (or maybe the striped one; this is the only tough choice for me) – $15; I’m sure this brand sells for the claimed value, but I wouldn’t pay more than $15 for a canvas bag, especially when I already have a dozen or so.

Konjac sponge – $10; I hate that they’re offering us a repeat, but I did like this. I wouldn’t use the nail duo, as I already have products that do the same thing that I love.

Setting spray – $15; I use setting spray almost daily and I wouldn’t mind trying out an illuminating one, but I wouldn’t pay full price for this. despite paying more than that for trusted brands.

So, the value of the box is there for me, but it’s still a lesser value compared to a lot of past boxes. I think I’m extra disappointed because I literally just resubscribed.

I’m glad other people are happy with the box, though, and I’m hoping I’ll like the next one better.

This is one of their best boxes I’ve seen from Causebox in my opinion. I am going to use everything. I’m getting the Blue Bag, Portable Charger, Tech Organizer Roll, Nail Duo, and the resurfacing mask. It was a hard pick between the resurfacing mask and the lip treatment kit. I have hormonal acne so I need to fix that more than chapped lips. And it was hard to pick between the dark blue and the gray bag. I figured the dark blue bag won’t show the dirt as easily. At some point I may set this bag down on a dirty surface so the dark blue bag will probably last me longer. I’m also ordering Market add-ons because I want to try out the Stojo Collapsible Cup too!

So nothing really grabs me in Category 5. Also, the mask powder is odd to me because 1 oz of it seems to be $16 on Amazon. It has great reviews, but I’m not sure how this small amount adds up?

Which item do you think is most desirable in terms of trading and so forth?

What do you think about eternity flowers in a sub like this? They make really beautiful ones that I wouldn’t buy for myself but then again it’s something that would likely collect dust. I’m torn but probably think it’s be a cool item…

I just read the utterly stupid blurb about Glass Ladder & Co. creating crap for “young women”. How about us old women trying to get a job to pay our rent and feed the household? Bloody hell! Does this company know how utterly tone deaf they are – especially these days when being over 35 really is a problem (if you can get an interview in the first place). I don’t agree with the whole “Cancel Culture”, but this brand is cancelled for me.

It seems that this sub is the best of the old subs. Ii am nonplussed by the offerings, but it is still better than almost everything else left out there (all of the “good” subs have folded). I have an annual sub that I will let play out, but I won’t bother resubscribing. I think I’ve given up on FFF, as the contents are consistently over-valued and almost useless in real life. Bombay & Cedar lifestyle is horrendous (another annual that I can’t wait to be over…I didn’t even receive my last box and CS are being assh@ts about providing a replacement). I can’t believe that I am honestly missing Luxor Box (and most of the others that are no more).

I like the dark blue napkin and that’s literally it. Super easy skip this box, I already own or do not want everything pictured (except that one napkin lmao, I would buy a set of 4 of those if I saw them at TJ Maxx)

Has anyone else had issues with the quality of marketplace items? I bought a pair of earrings and they wouldn’t close after one wear. I bought the bowl covers and now they are cheaper.

Why was the comments turned off?

Why were comments turned off in the first place? I didn’t realize that was even a thing. Not so cool. To me this box is not one of the better ones and I do regret having 2 annuals for it, BUT I bought a bunch of great stuff in their Marketplace and will discontinue my second sub when able to. I will always keep one though because they are usually great!

I’m glad comments are turned back on. It made me realize what I actually like about the site is the community and sharing of ideas. Anyway, I actually really like the lip set. I am going to get:

Stripe bag
Charger
Exercise bands (one of mine just broke, good timing!)
Nail treatments
Lip duo

Although not overly exciting, useful, and I feel that the value is there. Do we think there is another item everyone will receive?

This box looks boring. Useful items though!
