My ban.do Mystery Box has arrived!  The box (which is no longer available) was a one-time purchase of $50 and promised a value of $125+.  I love ban.do items, so I figured why not give this a try?

From ban.do
calling all fans of good deals and/or good surprises! each one of these goody goodie boxes is filled with a mystery assortment of apparel, accessories, drinkware, stickers, and more! they’re worth $125+, but you’re gettin’ them for waaaay less. you’ll also get strong feelings of excitement and anticipation at no extra charge.

The ban.do Goody Goodie Mystery Box shipped via USPS and took under a week to arrive.

My ban.do Goody Goodie Mystery Box included the following items:

~ban.do “Forever Girl Gang” Enamel Pin ($14): This pin is ban.do’s twist on the traditional “Best Friends” charms from years ago.  I am not sure you’d know what it says without having both pieces together, but I like it that way ;).

~ban.do Valley Cruise Press Pin – Fries Before Guys ($6): I think I have found a way to display my “flair.”  I am going to get a bulletin board and gather them all up on there.  I’ve tried putting them on totes, but they end up coming loose, so this will work way better for me.

~ban.do Thermal Travel Mug – Here Comes the Fun ($11): I am sure you know by now just how much I love tumblers and water bottles.  This one is insulated and HOT PINK!  That’s a winning combo to me.  The “Here Comes the Fun” part may or may not be true depending on what I have in it.

~ban.do Passport Holder – Here Comes the Fun ($24): Just like the travel mug, this passport holder is bright!  You will NOT lose this in your oversized tote.  It will hold your passport plus has slots for your id and/or debit/credit cards.

~ban.do Too Cold To Hold Drink Sleeve – Hot Tub Club ($3): I am not in the Hot Tub Club, but I think I want to be!  And I will need this to keep my cans cool and my hands warm.

~ban.do Rose Gold Star Sticker Pack ($8): I like all stickers, but rose gold stars?  YAAAS!!!  These will be great in my planner.

~ban.do watcha thinkin’ bout Journal – Lady of Leisure ($14): I could not be happier than I received a journal!  When I ordered this, I was secretly hoping for a planner or a journal of some sort, and here it is!  It has a gorgeous cover, lined pages, a sheet of stickers, a ribbon marker to hold your spot and a pocket in the back to hold loose items.  Totally perfect.

~ban.do Pink Squiggle Sunglasses ($15): LOL!  These are wild!  The pink squiggles remind me of frosting. And that new eyebrow trend. I won’t wear these daily, but I will wear them.  My husband is going to shake his head when he sees these, and I am cracking up just thinking about his reaction.

~ban. do Sailor Cotton Colorblocked T-Shirt ($38): This shirt is a big no. The price tag shows it at $48, but according to Brandy it was listed in their shop for $38, so I am going with that price.  I don’t necessarily dislike the color blocking on the sleeves (it’s not my style, but it’s okay), but I do dislike the cut/fit.  It’s short (I thought it was a crop top at first) and very wide.  A boxy fit like that is not a good look for me.  At all.

All totaled my ban.do Goody Goodie Mystery Box had a value of $143.  That’s even more than the promised value, but I felt underwhelmed.  I suspect I could have put together my own little ban.do box by shopping their Flash Sales and getting a similar value.  Still, I am glad I ordered, and I did have fun with it!

If you picked up a ban.do Goody Goodie Mystery Box what did you get and what do you think?
