Citrus Lane Delivery

elm005 · March 2014

We got our first box today. I am pleasantly surprised. Did anyone else who signed up, get theirs yet? Were your contents comparable? Just curious.

We got a board book, sanitizing wipes, first aid kit, and a pull toy. I was a little surprised that the pull you says 12 mo+. So I guess we will just put it on the shelf for a while.

Got ours! This is what we got. A wooden book by Hape, that medi kit box, "Art Cards for Baby" (black and white animal painting card things), and a Plum organics Moroccan lentil and apricot pouch.

Neat! I thought I saw something similar to this on the show Shark Tank. I wonder if they do shipping to Canada?

Burrberrymum · March 2014

How much are these packages?! I must say I'm a little jealous we can't subscribe from canada.

These look too cool! Plus I love getting something in the mail that is not bills.

I think they are normally $20/month but I signed up for 6 months when they had a Presidents Day special I think and it came out to $16 maybe.

@Burrberrymum‌

Even more jealous. That's amazing!

I got ours yesterday and received same items as @VitaLuna‌

Same for us. It was around $100 for 6 months. It is kind of fun.

VitaLuna · March 2014

I signed up during Presidents' Day, too. I also just signed up for Conscious Box for myself on a 3 month trial for $19.95 using the code "THREEFREE"

We received the same items. I love Citrus Lane and all LOs favorite toys are from our monthly boxes

@VitaLuna I just signed up for the conscious box too. It seems that it comes 2X a month? so we will get 6 with our trial? Is that how you understood it too?

ETA- I just figured it out. They will ship this one at the end of the month because we signed up after the 15th. After that they will ship on the 15th.

That's how I read it... That they'll send the first box sooner if the regular monthly shipment already went out, but that it's monthly after that.

I got the same as @VitaLuna‌ except my plum pouch is Mexican rice, beans and corn. I was a bit disappointed I don't know what to do with the flash cards or the wooden book. All E wanted to do was eat them.

I only had a coupon for the first month so I don't know if I will get another one.

EOB584 · March 2014

I also got the same one as @VitaLuna, with a different Plum pouch. I too was disappointed. I got one for my 3 yr old DD also and she wasn't overly impressed with hers either - and I paid full price for hers. I don't think I will get any more.

VitaLuna · March 2014

We're into eco toys, so the book is a hit with us. I don't think we'll use the flash cards at this age (maybe if she was younger and not eating everything, and again when she's older and can name animals). The pouch we'll use, as well as the diaper bag thing because H snatched it out for his diaper bag right away.

I think it's best for those that are eco/natural minded, since that seems to be the focus of lot of the toys in the box, and is not something that someone more conventional would necessarily value/appreciate when you could spend the same amt on cheaper mainstream/plastic toys and such.

cputman200 · March 2014

@VitaLuna‌ I was excited to get a more earth friendly toys and treasures. I love getting things I might not find or try myself. My disappointment was that the "fun" things I can't hand to her right now to play with. She eats everything and I am not comfortable handing her a wooden book or the flash cards.
Like I said before I only had the coupon for one month so now I am nervous to pay the full $30 for the next box since I didn't love this one. Bit we all know I can't resist the unknown so I am sure I won't cancel just yet.

olga1311 · March 2014

I got pretty much the same as @VitaLuna got. I was not overly impressed by also not too disappointed. This box was bleh to me. I will keep the subscription for at least few months though as I don't think I can accurately judge a service based on only one box. Some boxes might be better, some worse. There are coupons floating on internet for this subscription too so you don't have to pay full price

@cputman200‌
They're not $30. I wouldn't even get them if they were. And I think it's ok for them to mouth the book, but my LO has no teeth, so I think that makes a difference

I can see why some people wouldn't want to keep getting them, though.

cputman200 · March 2014

@vitaluna the coupon I had was good for one month, it was a great deal I only paid $9. But now the best I can tell from their website is I will be rolled into the single monthly rate plan which is $29 a month. I tried to use the coupons I found on RetailMeNot to discount the 3 month plan and it says the coupons are invalid. I am not sold on it enough to go ahead and pay $72 for the 3 month plan.

I think I will let it charge me for one month of the full price to get a 2nd box before I cancel. It will average out to 2 boxes at $19 each so still not a bad deal. If the next box is so great I have to keep getting them I might just cancel with my email and sign my husband up to get the longer deal with coupons.

As for the wooden book it feels like pressed wood and she has 2 little teeth and I was worried for splinters

We have read it together but she just wanted to eat it.
