OwlCrate and Lit Cube April Reveal

This is my last Lit Cube reveal and my first OwlCrate reveal!  I thought last month was my last Lit Cube, but apparently I didn’t cancel it in time, so I got one more.

Let’s save the best for last and start with Lit Cube:

Lit Cube Reveal:

Lit Cube lowered the price of their subscriptions by $10, making it $25 a month.  They also started shipping items in a bubble mailer instead of a box and the quality and quantity of their items dropped significantly.

April’s theme was “Passport to California” and these were the items included, and their retail value:

• Ana of California – $16
• Anne of Green Gables inspired bookmark – $5
• See’s Candy Lollipop – $1
• Route 66 Enamel Pin – $10
• California Decal – $4

I know the retail value of these items totals $36 but I wouldn’t have paid anywhere close to that for them.  The bookmark is just a laminated piece of paper with a huge yarn tassel.  We made these in 5th grade for a class project.  Literally a 5th grader can make them. (no offence to whoever did make it, its just not worth $5 in my opinion)

Overall I am incredibly disappointed in this box and it just re-enforced the fact that I am glad I canceled my subscription.
