Awesome Pack Subscription Box Review – June 2015

I also have mixed feelings about this sub. I recieved my first box in May. That box was okay but, catered almost everything in the box to my 5yr old. Which I bought the box for a 5 & 13 yrs. I know those are two completely different ages. As one being a child and the other as being more of an adult. Even though almost all items were for the 5yr old the value was higher for the 13yr old. Now this month I only recieved 1 item for the younger child. Actually, he recieved the little replica lego mini figure, too. This had me really disappointed because I purchased the box to be more for the 5yr old. The other items definitely wouldn’t be for him. One was a dice building set and the other shows how detectives lift fingerprints at a crime scene. I also didn’t think the value was there as much either this month.

I would also like to mention too that every month I have issues with my debit card going through. The reason being they package in NY but, process in Canada. Which make this an international transaction. I don’t know how other banks handle they’re international transactions but, with mine I have to call them before the transaction is to be run. This way I can get pre-authorization. This is a big pain in the butt because Awesome Pack is still in theit starter stages. Meaning they’re still so new that they don’t have everything completely setup on they’re site. Like a personal account. Which, I find to be a little weird because it is a nice site to visit with thorough questioning. The lady I talked to in customer service said they hope to have one soon. This way I could go and change my payment info. As it is right now every time my payment is to be processed I have to go through everything as if I was a new customer. Then right after I did this I have to email them to let them know who I am. This way I don’t have to fill out they’re question aire again. I’m trying this month to so fingers crossed that it’s good. I sooo want to like this subscription!!!!

June was our first Awesome Pack and I have mixed feelings about it. I asked for the board game to be for the adults, and the game they sent was great. The stuff for the kids though seemed to be for older kids. Mine are 3 & 1 and I ended up putting most of it away for when they’re older. I’m hoping my feedback on the monthly survey (great feature!) will fix this. I really want Awesome Pack to work for us!

Love Awesome Pack!! They do a great job of customizing – we also get a “big kid” board game for the two of us, along with great things for our one year old. This month we got a Leapfrog farm and my daughter LOVES it! 🙂 Haven’t had a chance to play the game yet (pickomino) but it looks interesting for sure.

My husband and I played Abraca-what last night at our local game night! It’s so cute and fun to play.

We also subscribed to Awesome Pack in June and we don’t have any children, which I made obvious our on our form. We got an excellent kit with a value of roughly $75. It was great to know that someone really read our profile and didn’t include ‘junk’ we didn’t want or need.

The second half of your description of the Marvel Slingers amused me greatly. 😀

One of these days, I plan on getting this sub, but for now we are having a lot of fun playing something called “Space Hulk.”

Awesome Pack is one of the best subscription boxes out there…handsdown. My husband and I get awesome pack so that we can get games to play for stay-in date nights. They always include something for our 2 year old even though we are getting the “BIg Kids” pack. Well worth the money. The games we’ve been sent are great and on my wishlist on amazon! Wow!
