First paragraph of an article they featured:
Many of us make New Year’s resolutions like exercising more or taking better care of our skin or taking a daily dose of cocoa extract supplement to help support cardiovascular health. Well, that last one may not be what all people are thinking, but Mars Botanical would like us to and that’s why it has included a sample of its CocaVia in one of the latest Craveboxes called “Resolutions.â€
clicking on the article and going to the article page let me in on a whole lot more.
The drawing for “Resolutions†is about to open and that box is also packed with 7-Up and S&W Ten from Dr Pepper Snapple Group, TimeWise Eye Repair Cream from Mary Kay; HJ Heinz’s Smart Ones, Wholly Guacamole, Hain Celestial tea packettes, SunRype Fruit Nutrition Bars and Abbott Nutrition Zone Perfect Bars. “Resolutions†joins four other boxes shipping this month: “David’s Bridal,†“Winter Favorites,†“Teen Time†and “Dog Lovers.†The boxes are also themed around a specific retailer or entertainment property
I love the line "these boxes are shrouded in mystery", immediately followed by a list of the box's contents. Nice mystery, guys!
ETA: Is it weird that tracking info on my box hasn't updated since 1/5?

One more thing, I totally cracked up when I saw tea on the list because it has become a bit of a running joke at my house since I keep getting tea in boxes. A common dialogue goes like this:
Me: You know what we need?
The boyfriend: A fine selection of teas!
Me: Of course!
We find ways to work it in everywhere
hahhahahhahaha that is AWESOME!!!!
hahah right?! on one of my boxes my tracking didn't update for a while then all of a sudden it was out for delivery. I'd give it till friday, especially since 5 was saturday it probably didn't actually go anywhere until yesterday.Originally Posted by magicalmom /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Blah, 50% of that I have 0 interest in. This doesn't convey "resolutions" to me.

I'm actually looking fwd to that item. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I gave away mine from the PS box.
I think they were focusing on the "staying healthy" resolution a lot of people make... personally, I would have liked it better if they reinforced several resolutions (like organization, keeping in touch with others, losing weight, reading more...) than focusing on one. I'm still happy I got it though! I'm a hungry girl!Originally Posted by Ann Tucci /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Whoo! Tracking finally updated, and it's in my state! Maybe I can hope for an early delivery?Originally Posted by spmblueeyez /img/forum/go_quote.gif

In my opinion, staying healthy would mean not eating products loaded with artificial ingredients - which it appears at least 50% of this box is full of. Oh well, I can always donate the items I don't want. This is my last cravebox for a while. I wish they weren't so food item heavy - but that's part of their gig. I really loved the teen box, which only had gum, but this resolution box is better than the green bean Thanksgiving box - although that had a few good items. I thought this box was supposed to have hair care items in it? Wasn't that in the survey?Originally Posted by magicalmom /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I also skipped out on the Game Day Box. I saw the survey and wasn't into any of the products.Originally Posted by magicalmom /img/forum/go_quote.gif
I agree completely... But I don't think kale would hold up thru shippingI'm also hoping they stop with the food, I decided not to sign up for the game day box once I saw the spoilers for the resolutions box. But I understand they're constrained by the products they get from the companies. C'est la vie!
how awesome!!!! I wish I had something coming from UPS, they're always at my house at 8 am when I have something from them! well, post pics as soon as you get it, I'm still at work for a few more hours!!Originally Posted by magicalmom /img/forum/go_quote.gif
My box is coming today! I have another box coming on the UPS truck (Urban Decay order) and the UPS hub decided to put my Cravebox on the UPS truck too instead of giving it to my post office! I'm honestly impressed by their efficiency.
And hopefully, I'll have pics later today!
