My Community Box, July 2014!

Hello again, savvy savers! Today finds us with yet another Boxed Subscription Review, and this time its the July 2014 Community Box! 

As a former long-time resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia, I was very excited to try this box out! The idea of receiving a box of local, organic, vegan, green-conscious products sounded quite appealing! If you don’t know about My Community Box, you are in luck as this hidden jewel is quite affordable, as you can subscribe to the box for a quarterly fee of $30.00, a small price to pay to have your carefully curated box of Hampton Roads products and services delivered to your door, shipped free! Like many other subscription services, you will not know from month-to-month what you will be receiving, but generally their products range from food, bath & body essentials, seasonal goods, stationery, event tickets, and other fun items!

 Billing occurs every 3-months from your joining date and shipments are mailed in January, April, July and October; there is also an option if you would like to receive a One Time Only box

 
 
 
So without further adieu, here’s what I received in my July My Community Box:
 
 
 
 
1) Flower Headbands
Retail Value $4.00 each
 
2) Perfectly Natural Soap
Retail Value: $4.50 each
Like them on Facebook @ Perfectly Natural Soap
 
3) Perfectly Natural Skin Bug Off!
Retail Value: $8.00 each
Like them on Facebook @Perfectly Natural Soap
 
4) Jody’s Gourmet Popcorn
Follow them on Twitter @JodysPopcorn

 

 

The total estimated value of my box is $35.00, and you get what you pay for in this awesome community box. For those looking into this subscription box, click here!
