Plum District is offering a 6 month subscription to Citrus Lane for $75 - add code pd_boxtops to get 20% off. My total was 6 months for $60. I bought a subscription for each of my boys (2 diff accounts) and am excited to see what arrives!

Does anyone know the age limit on these? DS2 got a 6 month subscription as a gift and DS1 keeps wanting one too.

It's good for up to age 5

I'm tempted to get it for my 2 yr old, but I know my 5 yr old would want it too. Even at $10, is it worth it since it's a 6 month commitment? I googled to see what others have received for the older kids and it didn't seem all that impressive.... Some stuff are cool but some (like a little snack pack or temporary tattoos) are bleh.

We did it for a 4 year old and received a full size bottle of bubble bath, a crocodile creek water bottle, 2 sand toys--fork shaped but thick, and a small bottle of sunscreen.

I think I paid about $10 for it and it was ok, but nothing that impressive. I think if I got things I needed it would have been better. I did like the sunscreen but didn't particularly like the brand, Episencial, which is chemical free but have used it in the past and preferred other brands. It was all worth $10 but still have yet to use those sand toys and the bubble bath. So, worth it if you actually use it. If you get 6 mths worth, you should get plenty of things you use. I only did one box to try them out. They seem like a good company overall, just didn't feel I got things I can use since we already had a water bottle and plenty of sunscreen already. I think it's good for people who need lots of stuff for their kids and haven't bought much yet, otherwise you may get doubles.

Do you think it's better for the over 3 set than the baby versions?

I don't know as I only got the one for my 4 year old. But I think it's geared toward the babies and younger than 3 set.

I did go on Plum District to check out the other deals and there is Blumm, with only a one month subscription.
Thanks to the OP's code, I got a box for $9.80 with 4% from Ebates.
It's supposed to give 5 full sized items.

I decided to try Blumm too, why is their site still trying to charge me $1.00?

From what I read, the $1 is shipping and is an expected charge with the plum district deal.

I just tried to do the one month offer and have never used Plum District before. It kept telling me my card was declined and to resubmit so I did that several times then suddenly got a message saying a duplicate order had been placed. I don't see any way to call them and now I have no idea how many orders were placed since it never actually confirmed any! Has anyone used them before and can verify this is a reputable company? Is there any way to contact them? I see the page to submit a "ticket" but there is no link to do so and no phone number to call. Yikes!

My order did the same thing, it kept saying my card was declined. It went through though.

I didn't realize it charges a $1 until later. Per Plum District, Blumm is supposed to offer a free subscription to Parents or Family Fun but when I wrote their rep said it was discontinued.
I didn't have any problems with my credit card, it went through, but I'll watch my statement carefully, since there were problems with the site.

Anyone else get one yet?

I got my first one for my 6 month old. I got a bumkins bib, weleda bath wash, green toys tug boat bath toy, skip hop owl bowl, and lip balm for mom. I was very pleased - we will use all of it.
