If you’ve been following my blog lately, you know I’m trying out subscription boxes. Well, this one is my favorite of them all. At only a dollar (plus $3.99 for shipping), it’s also the cheapest. And it’s food. Who doesn’t need food? Male, female, single, married with a house full of children–this box is for everyone! They have different subscriptions, but I signed up for the Dollar Snack Club Box, which comes with six healthy snacks. To get the box for a dollar, I have to fill out a quick survey after I receive the box each month. Otherwise, they’ll charge me $9.99, which is the usual price for the box.

The name of the company is SnackNation, and each month they send out a mix of bars, chips, healthy indulgences, and classic snacks. The healthy indulgences are sweets, and the classic snacks consist of dried fruits and nuts. They seem to be full-sized, and a lot of them are unique.

I’m always searching for new, healthy food for my family, and I’ve spent quite a bit of money on some fails. I’ll see something that looks great, but when I get it home, no one in the house likes it. One of the main things I like about this company is that I’ll get a box of new snack items each month–much cheaper than what I would pay at the store. If my family likes it, I’ll start buying it. If we don’t, then at least I didn’t waste much money on it. And with four people in the house, there are a variety of tastes to appease.

Here are the six items I got in my first box:

Definitely worth more than a few dollars! And my family tried some new foods. The Pipcorn bag was big, and it only had 81 calories total. I’m so glad I tried it. My son took the sunflower kernals to school for his snack, and my daughter took the meat stick. (She didn’t like it, though.) The chocolate wafer bites were yummy, but since I usually eat dark chocolate for my sweet snack, it’s not something I’ll buy in the future. The children liked the SHEFFA bar, but my husband I didn’t care for it. The Pure Protein bar hasn’t been eaten, but we’ve bought those in the past. It’s not a new item for our family.

Along with the subscription box, I bought a large box at checkout. For $39.99 I received a separate box with fifty snacks in it. It took longer to come in, and I just got it today. The box had (my son already got into it) ten different snacks–five of each item. 

No regrets on buying the large box. I already know some of the items, while the others are completely new to me and my family. I plan to hide the Pipcorn in my office (next to my dark chocolate stash), and I’ll share the rest of the items. It will help with school snacking.

I just looked on SnackNation’s website and can’t find the big box for sale. I believe it’s something you can only get at checkout or your first purchase. If you decide to sign up for the monthly dollar box, I highly recommend getting the large box as well. It’s a one time purchase. If you like any of the items in the box, you can buy more of them at a discount price on their website–for a limited time. It’s like a discount snack store. They also have some office snack boxes for your company’s employees.

Oh, and did I mention SnackNation has partnered with Feeding America? They donate one meal for every order shipped. I’m loving this company!
