This is the first month we've been disappointed and thinking that we may consider cancelling if another month is like this. Overall we still find it has value and there was enough surprise, but we were disappointed that several items were repeats from previous boxes. The Jones Soda repeat was welcome in that it was a good flavor compared to the disgusting Pumpkin Pie one from October (or maybe it was November), but the Nando's and Riccola (different packaging) were total repeats kind of defeating the purpose of having new things to try out every month. We also didn't mind the other repeats (*) in that they weren't actually on the month's list, so were probably just thrown in as extras from being leftover from other months.

- *Go Orgaically Fruit Snacks 8ct
- Haven't tried the ones we got before, but something we are likely to use.
- *Pillsbury Purely Simple White Cake Mix
- Also, have not use the one we got previously. Not that we wouldn't like it, but we only make cupcakes/cake once a year and thus don't really find it useful to have another.
- *Pillsbury Purely Simple Buttercream Frosting
- Again, something we still have from previous box and even less likely to use than the cake mix because I don't like the sugary sweetness of frosting and tend to only use cream cheese frosting that I make with less than half the sugar the recipe calls for.
