Generic Snacks with a couple of Name Brand products
First let me say this is a WONDERFUL idea and would have been a GREAT purchase if it had arrived with the items advertised. Yes, I know I can buy snacks MUCH cheaper at my local grocery store. Yes, I know the "package" is overpriced. I didn't knock off stars for that because I bought this as a gift to send someone and I knew (or so I thought I knew) what I was buying- and I felt the packaging (I love the blue box), prime delivery and variety of snacks was worth the extra/premium price I was paying to get a bunch of snacks. My issue is that I received VERY few of the snacks advertised- and especially not in the quantity or variety advertised. I didn't get ANY cheezits, fiber one bars, pirates booty, M&M cookies, goldfish or keebler cookies- just to name a few! The name brand snacks I did get were so TINY (Rice Krispies were baby size- lol) except for the couple of Pop chips - those were regular snack sizes you see in store. I got an insane amount of those cheese and peanut butter sandwich cookies (off brand- yuck) along with a bunch of other unknown brand snacks. I also got a bunch of repetitive cheap/small snacks. Like really? How many airheads can you throw in here to count as a snack. I wish I had taken a picture. But let me paint one instead... You know when you go to .99 c store and you walk through the snack aisle and you don't recognize any of the brands and you think to yourself what the hell is this- hmmm well.. it's .99c should I try it? Then you go home eat one piece and then quickly dump the entire bag in the trash because it doesn't taste right? Yup that's what you will be getting. AND that is what I have a problem with. You shouldn't be able to put a picture on Amazon (with known brands most people like) and say this is what you are selling but then fill the box with a couple of those good things and toss unknown junk in there to make up the rest. Felt very ripped off. Good idea. Poor execution. Never again.
