~If you haven’t guessed it by now, this weekend was BUSY! We had our garage sale (you can read the recap here) on Friday and Saturday and then basically just had a big day of fun yesterday (lunch at our favorite place, the mall, fro-yo, playing outside, etc.)! I’ll pay for it this week for sure because I have a million things to do (and we’ll be out of town next weekend), but it was totally worth it.
~I *thought* I didn’t have any boxes coming this week, but then I thought about it more and I realized I have Birchbox Man, Julep, The Homegrown Collective and Try The World for sure. Plus, I am hoping for a Fancy Box (or two) to appear and surely some surprises will arrive right? I also have a few reviews I am behind on, including MeUndies, Loot Crate, Crafter’s Crate, For the Makers and Goody Gorilla. And I thought it was going to be a slow box week! Ha!!
~I got the subscription box list updated last night and added: A Local Taste (currently offers Boston foods and snacks), BlackBox from iVIP (the most expensive subscription box ever), Candy Japan (Japanese candy and snacks) , Goody Gorilla (food and snacks), Grover & Friends (men’s fashion), Mexican Candy Box (mexican candy and snacks), Nerd Block (epic geek gear), Kasten Pets (dog subscription), Saffron Rouge Inner Circle (organic beauty product samples), Unbound (adult -don’t open this at work ;)), Wantable Intimates (intimates) and watanut (healthy snacks and mixes). I am sure I am missing a few, but you get the idea!
~I haven’t been able to watch the VMA’s yet (that’s what happens when you don’t have cable), but I hope to watch it tonight. If you watched, tell me everything! I’m not really really worried about anyone “spoiling” it because I don’t care who wins. I am just interested in the performances.
~Is anyone else as excited for college football season as I am? I am so ready for it! Michigan State plays their first game on Friday night and while they are projected to be good this year, you really never know with them. I need to look into getting tickets to a game this season. I would love to go with B and L (WB would not enjoy that one bit).
~I think I mentioned it, but I sent a bag of clothes in to thredUP last week. I didn’t take any pictures this time and I’m not even 100% sure what all I threw in there, so we’ll see. I look forward to seeing how long this one takes to get processed. Their blog says they are running a month behind, but will be including updates on where your bag is in the process and when you can expect it to to be completed, so that should be interesting to check out. I also plan on sending in a bag to Twice this week and will report back on that. For fun, I am sending the EXACT same black Splendid tee to both places. Same color, same size, same condition. Same everything. I am SO anxious to see the difference in payouts on these!
~Since I am going to have to start getting up earlier beginning next week to take L to school, I’m going to attempt to go to bed by midnight every night from now on. This is fairly early for me, but it’s got to happen. Any tips? I do really like morning tv, so I am sort of looking forward to it (sort of).
That’s it from here! How was your weekend? What do you have going on this week? Any boxes coming??
