bluum is a monthly box of goodies for moms and babies. Products are hand-selected based on your child’s age (from pregnancy to preschool), gender and developmental stage. They now have an option that allows you to select the items you wish to receive in your boxes which I think is awesome. You don’t have to pick, but the option is there if you’d like to. The selections were pretty limited this month (they have been lately), so I allowed bluum to make the picks for me.

This month’s box looked great! My December 2016 bluum box (for a 5 year-old boy) included the following items:
~Spongefuls Soap-Filled Sponges Body Wash ($4.89): These are fabulous and will make a great stocking stuffer! They are soap-filled sponges in the shape of sports balls. Each sponge is good for about 7 uses and they are super cute.
~Horton Hatches the Egg ($14.23): You can’t go wrong with a Dr. Suess book! We don’t have this one and it will be a great addition to our little library at home.
~Melissa & Doug Wooden Stamp Set ($6.99): This will be another great stocking stuffer! My son loves stamps (who doesn’t) and will happily stamp everything in sight with these.
~fluf Ty-Paper Lunch Bag ($17.58): This is the coolest lunch bag! It’s made out of ultra-durable tyvek and is stain & water-resistant, washable and rip-, tear- and puncture-resistant. It has a snap closure and is very roomy. I think everyone in the house will end up fighting over this one.
All totaled I came up with a value of $43.69 for the December 2016 bluum box. This was a great box for us and probably one of the better bluum boxes we have gotten lately.

This company is an absolute joke.
I called to cancel my subscription in July after they sent “Muffin Mist” (yes, for your “muffin” in the box and I didn’t feel like it was appropriate. I said I would finish out my year (because I had paid until December) and then did not want to re-subscribe.
January 2nd I was charge 324.00 dollars. I immediately called the company and left a message. I called/emailed on the 3rd and 4th. I never received any response back but I could see from their website that the “help desk” emails I sent were opened. I called again on the 5th apparently the number was disconnected. I called from a different number other than my cell phone number and the call went through. I kid you not.
The company had “no record” of my call in July. At first they wanted to charge me a cancellation fee and said I had to take the January box and pay for it.
The woman I talked to on the phone was condescending and had “no idea why I couldn’t get through.” “No one else has this problem.”
Do not use this company. It’s a scam.
