Better Half Box ships via USPS and take just a few days ago arrive.

This review is on the the Men’s Better Half Box, but I also have a review coming on the Ladies box.  You can select your box preference at checkout and there is a questionnaire that asks your birthday, anniversary, etc. because they do send special boxes for those occasions.

This was my first ever seeing a Better Half Box and I was already excited about it.  It’s always extra exciting to open up the first box from a brand new subscription company.

The June 2015 Better Half Box (Men’s) theme was “Casino Royale” and included the following items:

~USB Pen (Exclusive): I thought this was just a “regular” pen and was thinking how lame it was that they sent a boring pen in a box.  But it has a built in USB!  A 4GB USB.  It’s easy to carry around and you’ll never have to worry about not having your data with you.

~Chocolate Poker Chips (Exclusive): The odds of B actually seeing these in person are slim (okay none).  The kids will be claiming them as their own as soon as they see them!

~Money Soap by Virginia Candle Company ($10.99): I am kind of (okay totally) obsessed with this soap. It’s kind of like a prize candle, except it’s soap and instead of jewelry or a ring inside, this one has money! It could be $1, $5, $10, $20 or even $50! My cousin received one of these for Christmas and I have been meaning to get one for L for a while now. I’ll consider it a last birthday present. He’ll get such a kick out of it.

~World Series of Poker Playing Cards ($3.99): Well every good casino night does need a deck of cards doesn’t it?

~Las Vegas Shot Glass (~$5): Another Vegas / gambling essential. Shots. LOL! I am sure B will use for his monthly poker nights. I used to have a ton of shot glasses, but do I know where they all are now? Nope.

~Air Force Aviator Sunglasses: I can’t locate these online, but I love them. I love when B wears aviators and cannot wait to see him in these.  The information card recommends using them while playing poker too so you can hide your eyes.

~Chicks Dig Me BBQ Sauce by BourbonQ ($6.99): The name of this alone cracks me up!  It’s a Mango Chipotle flavor and works with just about everything – fish, meat or poultry.

~Shea & Vitamin E Lip Balm by Jack Black ($7.50): Jack Black is a fantastic brand and this is a great lip balm.  B’s gotten it in the past and (of course) I tested it out for myself.  It doesn’t leave your lips all shiny – just soft.

I couldn’t find prices for everything online, so I was unable to do a cost breakdown on it.  I think it was well worth the $39.99 price tag though (and an even better value at $29.99 which is the price with the coupon code) and I loved the variety of items they sent out.  It felt a bit like a Men’s version of POPSUGAR or FabFitFun!
