DO NOT PURCHASE

If you want dollar store quality snacks for way more $, than this is the box for you!! Do NOT buy this box!!!!! I get many international snack boxes and this is the WORST one. Everytime I'm disappointed. After the Xmas box I had to cancel it was sooooo bad. All the boxes were pretty awful. The only good thing we're some of the drinks. Don't waste your $ on this!!!!!!

Do not buy from here

Do not buy from here. Some shipments arrive but some are never sent. They always have excuses and blame you for why you didn’t get your shipment. Not worth the money even if you get the shipment.

Hi Barry,

Nate here, you purchased a 6-month mini pack subscription on Nov 25th. Since then we’ve sent ALL your shipments.

You didn’t receive the first box because of a mistake on YOUR end, not ours. You claim your son never got his first box because he was “on winter break”.

We processed your order as soon as we received it and an email notifying you was also sent. If you knew your son wouldn’t receive it, you could’ve reached out and delayed the shipment.

No such email was received from you. Instead you sent an angry email months later, long after the box was shipped.

You also threatened us with 1 star reviews “on every site you can find”. We told you, you’re free to voice your opinion.

I placed an order to be delivered to my daughter at College

I placed an order to be delivered to my daughter at college on January 17. I got a notice that it was shipped on the 19th. Today (January 23) i got a cancellation notice from the company, although PayPal has paid them. No explanation. There is no phone number to this place. Be careful! It is either a scam or extremely poorly run.

How can my delivery be "high risk"? You were paid through PayPal instantly when i placed my order.
Such a poor business model.

Ok here, let me get A few things clear.
When I say “high risk”, here’s what I mean; based off your previous purchase history & credit card charges with other vendors/ services, you have a high chance of disputing charges & opening disputes. Also, based off your review history of other brands/stores/services-etc, your name came up as “high risk” of being a difficult customer and excessive negative reviews.
.

Quite frankly, I am tired of entitled customers who spend
A few dollars think they can DEMAND service or blow up our support asking for daily updates and to “call me right away”! & claiming we have no phone number so that we must mean we’re a scam! We are an e-commerce store Kendale, not Walmart.

You yell and shout “ you where paid by PayPal! Yeah, you were also fully refunded the second your order was cancelled . Just like you have the choice of who to buy from, we also have a choice to who we want to serve.

$17.95 isn’t nearly enough to deal with entitled customers like you.

First I loved getting the coin and a booklet about the country. The book I received was snacks from England. I received the mini box. Which is definitely mini. It came with seven snacks which consisted of a bag of chips, and the rest sweets. Chiposticks, Milky Way, Mara, Kinder cards, Gateaux, Timeout Wafer.

They were all OK, but it disturbed that the Milkyway bar was expired in February.

Hi Amy! Nate here from TryMySnacks- first, I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your box!

As for the expired Milkyway - it’s actually not! The distributors use dd/mm/yyyy format (Day/Month/Year) so the expiration date is October/10/2022.

Nate

Good I guess - if you like cookies?

I was sooo excited for this box. I’ve done several other subscription boxes in the past but this one seemed the most personal ... after watching some YouTube Unboxings I was sad and so looking forward to it ...
I was expecting an assortment of stuff though but recieved 90 percent cookies ( and cookies all very similar to each other at that)
It ended up being the worst box I’ve had to date yet from any company . Definitely feel like I wasted my money.

After having more than one issue with…

After having more than one issue with snack crate I decided to try a different subscription box. I only found this due to it popping up on my YouTube randomly. There was a couple that was doing a review on the box. One of the things that really drew me into this company was the fact that they support the ASPCA. I absolutely love that a portion of their proceeds go to the foundation. As far as the Box I got the middle-sized box from Japan.I received it very quickly and was very happy with the amount of snacks that I got. The fact that they also include a coin from the country is a cool thing to have. So far my favorite snack is the Umaibo corn puffs.

First Box

I just my received my first box. It was snacks from Japan.I was familiar with everything I received. While I was disappointed to receive a shrimp flavored cracker there was only one. My favorite was the Chobo-Chobo biscuits. Perfect for a light snack. I look forward to receiving my next box.

My mini size pack just got here and I am so impressed! There were many snacks in the mini and the box arrived quickly after I ordered it. I will cancel my other subscription boxes and upgrade to the larger size. It is a bonus that a portion of the proceeds go to the ASPCA.

Quality, quantity and delicious.

Fantastic, a great variety of different unique snacks. My family just adorbs the fun book and coin. The company is very responsive and has excellent communication. You could not be disappointed in the quality, quantity or deliciousness in each box.

First box: mini box Japan

Super fast, where first order was shipped and received within a week of ordering. We got the mini box, where we upgraded for the drink, ice pack and speedy shipping. Everything in the box was tasty: favorite item per my daughter was the jelly filled marshmallows, I liked the mini wafer (chocolate ice cream cone.) We both agreed the matcha flavored kit kat was our least favorite. Loved learning some cool facts about Japan, and seeing/receiving currency.

The packaging was nice and the first delivery was fast. I love that every month we get a coin or bill from that country, it’s a great souvenir! This company also supports the ASPCA to help end animal abuse, and for this I love Trymysnacks!!

Of all subscriptions, this is the best.

I have tried several other company’s boxes. This one was the best. I will cancel my other subscriptions and only keep this one. I ordered it because someone I follow and trust on YouTube recommended it and I am very happy. They weren’t able to send the coin/bill because of the virus so they included additional snacks. There also was a hand written note.That is great customer service. I can’t wait for the next box. Thank you.

USPS hasn't delivered yet - Not TryMySnacks fault

I'm still waiting on my box that should have been here last Thursday. USPS says it is arriving late but doesn't have any information past the 19th when it was originally due. I paid for 1-3 day shipping :(

edit - The item was shipped out w/ 1-3 day shipping but USPS is the issue not TryMySnacks. TryMySnacks responded promptly to this review and is trying to help with finding my package
