NatureBox Promo Code

Just as I was starting to wonder why Daisy gets to sample all the good stuff around here, my September NatureBox arrived! If you haven’t heard about NatureBox, it’s a monthly mystery box subscription of HEALTHY snacks and treats for people.

Each month, the box includes 15 to 20 servings across 4 to 6 different NatureBox snacks. Products  are made from wholesome, natural ingredients, and are minimally processed, if at all. They use NO High Fructose Corn Syrup, contain NO Trans Fats and NO Partially Hydrogenated Oils…all the stuff we are supposed to avoid to stay healthy!

Every month’s box is designed around a different theme. This month is “Health Myth Busters”. The insert that comes with the box helps bust common health misconceptions about fat, sugar and carbs. I LOVE that they figured out how to combine helpful nutritional information with yummy snack food! My September box included:

  • Pistachio Power Clusters
  • Umami Roasted Nuts
  • Big Island Pineapple Slices
  • Apple Orchards Granola
  • Toasted Sesame Stix

They were ALL amazing with the Pistachio Clusters being my absolute favorite…wish I could order more of THOSE!

The cool card that comes with each box also includes info about the ingredients as well as a new recipe to try and ALL the ways to connect with NatureBox on social media! You can visit NatureBox on Facebook if you’d like to see photos of previous boxes.

In addition to feeling good about these healthy snacks, I also love that for every NatureBox sent out, they donate one meal to help feed the over 14 million children in America who go hungry every year through their partnership with Feeding America.

Sorry, Daisy! THESE treats are for people!!!

In addition to a fun, guilt-free way to schedule some snacks and treats for yourself and family, NatureBox also makes a fantastic gift idea. Because you know that each month, the ingredients will be healthy, and the theme will be yummy and unique, it’s one gift you can really feel good about sending AND that your recipient will be thrilled to receive!

The regular price is really good too, for all the delicious, high-quality treats you get at $19.95/month including free shipping.

But of course I’ve dug up a discount for you, because that’s what I do! Just make sure to use NatureBox Promo Code SPECIAL25 when you order to Save $5 OFF your first box!

Just signup at NatureBox before the 5th of the month to receive that month’s box! You can cancel or pause anytime and they promise a 100% refund if you aren’t happy with your box…but I can’t even imagine that happening now that I’ve received mine!

PetSmart lady bug costume back

We were just starting to talk about what Daisy should be for Halloween this year, when a package showed up! The sweeties over at PetSmart looked through the new 2012 collection, decided that Daisy would make a cute a Ladybug, and sent over this adorable dog Halloween costume for her to wear for trick-or-treating this year.

Unless your dog is accustomed to wearing clothing or costumes on a regular basis, we suggest you get yours soon and give your pup time to get used to theirs, too!

This one has a hood with ear holes, and Daisy was pretty good for her Daddy while he helped her put it on. My job was holding the treats and camera and trying not too laugh too hard…you can see this shot is a little blurry because I was giggling and she was wiggling.

Look how CUTE those heart-shaped antennas are!!! It’s the only challenging part about putting on this costume and might work better for a dog with slightly smaller ears, or maybe ears that are less floppy and more pointy…but it’s so fun, and you can roll the hood into a collar like we did in the top photos.

If you aren’t sure about fit, I suggest you take your pooch with you to PetSmart when you shop for a costume. In addition to deciding which size fits best (Daisy is 50 lbs and this is an XL), there are also many different costumes to choose from and your dog will want to help pick!

If you’ve got a fur kid that isn’t fond of wearing a full costume, you could get a cute bow, collar or other Halloween accessory instead. Check out all the dog Halloween costumes and accessories at PetSmart.com for LOTS more.

Disclosure: We received a sample product for review purposes so we could tell you about our own experiences and share our photos with you. We were not compensated nor told what to say. All opinions are 100% mine and Daisy’s.

my snapshot from Progressive
Daisy and I were invited to join the Snapshot Test Drive Program for 30 days, to see how much we could save on car insurance from Progressive! To clarify, I’ll be doing the driving, and Daisy will be my back-seat companion. I swear that girl enjoys the journey as much as the destination – a great reminder for all of us!

Our kit with the Snapshot Device and instructions on how and where to plug it in just arrived so we are now officially part of Team Flo! (Who knew there was a data port under my steering wheel!?!) I’m guessing that most of you are big fans of Flo just like we are…No one does commercials like our gal pal!


We’ll be checking back in to give you an update on how our test drive goes, and to bring you the chance to win some cool swag from Flo and Progressive, so stay tuned! Drivers currently enrolled in the program on average save $150 per year, so we can’t wait to see how we do!

In the mean time, just wanted to let you know that anyone can take Snapshot on a 30-day FREE Test Drive! You don’t even have to switch insurance! At the end of the 30 day free program, you get a quote and can save up to 30% based on your own driving data.
