Grove Collaborative Subscription Box Review + Coupon – September 2018

Box: Grove Collaborative (this link gives you $10 and me $10 when you sign up)!

 

Contents: Curated and/or self-selected eco-friendly products such as Cleaning, Laundry, Hand and Body, Face and Hair, Kids, Scent Free, Oral Care, etc. to ship when you want it (monthly and/or on demand)! Some of the Brands carried are Seventh Generation, Acure Organics, Method, Mrs. Meyers, Molly’s Suds, and house brand Grove Collaborative.

 

Cost: Price of your items (usually discounted) plus $2.99 shipping (waived if you are a VIP member see more details below).

 

Kick Back and Get Comfortable: 

I LOVE the service that Grove Collaborative offers. Every item that I received was either a promotional free item or discounted. I will keep a lookout for more promos and let you know! Most of the products that I bought were not found on discount via my beloved Amazon. Because I wanted to avoid passing Target and paying $200, we would buy our cleaning products on Home Depot (which were not discounted at all).

We all know how I want to save money in the comfort of my own home.

I found signing up was easy. Grove Collaborative asks a few questions and then curates a box for you. You can then feel free to delete and add items as you wish.

There is a $2.99 shipping charge BUT if you sign up for VIP status, the shipping fee is waived! So while you are shopping look into the VIP trial because you receive free shipping for two months and then you pay $19.99 for a year. In addition to VIP status, you will receive freebies amounting to five (5!) full size items within a year so $19.99 pays for itself in (1) free shipping, (2) five full size items and (3) the already discounted savings on items purchased!!! And if you forget to add the VIP trial to your order (like I did) the VIP trial option appears after you place your first order. And then if you forget that, I am sure the awesome customer service will take of you!

Once you make an order you can set up to change when you want your next delivery and what products you want for that delivery. Grove Collaborative will send advance email reminders and a text reminder (if you give your cell) when a monthly box is scheduled so you can make any modifications to that order. Also a week after you sign up, you will be able to “purchase now” if you need something now.

Note on Customer Service:

Not only is customer service awesome, make sure you look under the customer service representative’s signature because there might be a link with a coupon to one of their favorite products. You know me and codes and coupons.

I also was recently sent an email blast from Grove Collaborative with some points that they wanted their customers to be aware of and if you are not happy with a product they will compensate you! How awesome is that!?!

An other awesome plus is that if there is a promo for new customers, Grove Collaborative usually also rewards continuing customers with a promo as well!

Codes and/or Coupons for new and continuing customers = A Happy and Loyal Pnut

 

Price Matching Deets:

I noticed when I was stalk tracking my Grove Co box one of their advertisements  on the tracking page was for the VIP program features. One of the features was “price matching”!

Online Price Matching be still my heart!!!

Squeakette

wants me to get started on the review…

Oh my cuteness, look at her all grown up. *sniffs* Her signature bedhead has disappeared but her younger sister, Squeaka, has picked up that tradition since her hair has started to grow out more.

I guess part of being a squeaker is going through a bedhead stage. 

I digress, let’s get this box unboxed!

 

This is Part 1 of the Hello Kids Watermelon Toothpaste & Rinse Set

Squeakette is going to get the Part 2 now so we can review…

Thank you Squeakette!

Hello Kids Watermelon Toothpaste & Rinse Set

I noted when I went to make September’s offer that Grove Co now stocked the toothpaste. But then I noticed that they had a bundle package for a small savings so I got the bundle. Because I needed a rinse backup.

Everyone needs a backup of a favorite. 

Anyways, Squeakette was very pleased to see this watermelon rinse and proclaimed that she wanted it. This was a better reaction then the normal [Squeakette] thinks I have too many X, Y, Z and she may be right.

I actually reach out for the watermelon rinse myself! As for the toothpaste, we have a variety of conventional and crunchy. I am not sure about this watermelon but I do like the Hello brand since I was introduced to it via subscription boxes. If the Squeakers reach out for it, I will reorder this toothpaste. This would be interesting because many of us do prefer to have the same flavor toothpaste and rinse! I make an exception for kid’s toothpaste though because if I am a tired old ass I would reach out for Tom’s Silly Strawberry Toothpaste if I am too lazy to reach for an adult toothpaste in the bathroom.

More on the tired old ass below. 

If You Care Household Gloves – Small

If You Care Household Gloves – Small

$2.49 yes please! That was the lowest price I have found for these gloves. And they were needed my dollar ones bit the dust. We are training our eldest squeaker, Pipsqueak, to wash the dishes. Actually, we call it “Bunny Slaying” since these dishes must mate like bunnies and pile up!

If You Care Household Gloves – Small

These size small gloves are perfect for her and me. For reference my index fingers are a ring size 5.

I have tiny fingers. 

These will fit someone with small hands much better than the standard one size all dishwashing gloves. If I had nails (or longer fingers), these gloves would accommodate them. I like to put on moisturizer before I put on the gloves to get some heat therapy spa kick as an extra reward/motivation for having clean dishes.

VERDICT:

I am going to have to see if the Squeakers like the watermelon toothpaste coordinating with their beloved watermelon rinse.

I am really digging the new deals that Grove Co has on bundle purchases. A ton new products also come in bundle form. Also new is that Grove Co has some of its own brand of essential oil now. I want and hope that maybe they come out with an essential oil that competes with “Thieves” and “On Guard” variety. I think I would snap that up for my monthly delivery.

Speaking of the ton of new items each time I look online on Grove Co to see what I want to order next, I am really giving some thought of ordering the mist from Little Moon Essentials Tired Old Ass line.

Seriously. Tired.Old.Ass.

This is what I feel most of the time.

I digress, thank you Grove Co for cleaning/organization motivation. I have gone through several hand-me-downs to donate and I have swapped out my Squeakers summer dresses for the fall/winter ones.

Winter Is Coming.

More work needs to be done but you assist me in pushing me off my tired old ass to do stuff.

 

Grove Co = My monthly cleaning motivation.

Because even Amazon Save & Subscribe doesn’t motivate me.

    Oh my goodness, Squeakette is a little lady now! So cute!

    My son is obsessed with the Tom’s toothpaste we have. I don’t remember the flavor, but he tries to just eat the toothpaste off the brush. His 7th tooth just came in. Why do they grown so fast?!

    • October 2, 2018 at 8:52 am

      I am pretty sure they only have strawberry? I dunno we get them via the Amazon Save and Subscribe I think its a three pack (or 2 pack).
      I think its the most flavorful natural (and comventional) kid toothpaste. I know I am weird testing out kid’s stuff but its amazing how they use products. For example, some sippy cups I do not understand how a human can suck liquid from them. We use the 360 munchkins now since its almost like sipping from a cup that doesn’t spill.
      I digress, they do grow too fast :/

      Ahhh I had to go down the Amazon hole. You are probably using the mild fruit gel for bebes. Have’t tried that but that bebe gel toothpaste will last a long time… well longer than the toddler ones 😉 I see Toms also has a fruitilicious and orange mango…. *closes the Amazon window* I got a small tube of toothpaste from Ecocentric mom I got last week I need to post the review up soon.

        I checked, it’s the Mild Fruit Flavor Training Toothpaste. I try the baby products too. If it tastes nasty I can’t make my kid eat it, lol. We have a couple of the 360 cups. He intuitively used it until he realized it didn’t have a spout to chew. I’ll look for your review to see what goodies you got

          Yea for sampling moms!
