Vine Oh! Sips & Surprises Oh! Ho Ho! Holiday 2020 Box Subscription Review

Hey Lovelies,

 

I have a new-to-me subscription box to share with you and it’s the Vine Oh! Sips & Surprises Seasonal Box.  While I’m not a wine drinker, I love this box because the ‘Surprises’ are curated to help women unwind. I’m all about self-care, so having a box that gives me comfy, cozy items and fun gifts/treats is right up my alley. The wine, well that makes the perfect gift to give to friends and family members.

 

Before I get into what was in my box, let me tell you a bit more about Vine Oh! 

What is Vine Oh!? Vine Oh! is quarterly subscription box that includes 5-6 FULL-SIZE PRODUCTS that’s fun, rejuvenating, and delicious along with 2 bottles of wine.

Guaranteed box value? Each box will have a MSRP value of at least $120 value (it’s often higher).

Where do you ship to? Vine Oh! ships to all states expect for Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, Mississippi, Rhode Island and Utah.

How is it shipped and packaged? Vine Oh! ships free via FedEx Ground, expedited shipping is available for an additional price. ID and an adult signature are required when the box is delivered. The box and wine ships together in a larger outer box with the box on top and the wine nestled in cardboard cradles in the bottom.

They offer SMS text messaging for shipping notifications to let you know when you need to be home (or arrange for an adult) to receive your box.

Can I pick my wine? You can selected Red, White, Sweet, or Mix.

Are product cards included? Yes. Each box contains an envelope which contains individual product cards, a box value card, and a Vine Oh! wine card. While the product and value card offers a lot of info, the wine card is general information about the company. I think it would have been nice if the wine card offered info on the types of wine included in the box.

Items included the Oh! Ho Ho! Holidays Box

 

--Willow Collective Plaid Throw (50”x60” $30)—this is a super soft and comfy throw. While this would be nice to cover up with or lay on the back of chair/couch for a touch of festive décor, I’m leaving this wrapped up because I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it or give it as a gift.

--Stephanie’s Bridal Boutique Earrings ($25)—these are a gorgeous with pink cubic zirconia stones set in gold tone brass. I don’t have pierced ears, but these are lovely—and rather large—so I’m actually going to turn these into necklace pendants.

--The Potted Plant Hemp Body Lotion in Vanilla Chai (16.5 fl. oz $23)—this smells amazing—think fresh baked Christmas cookies or a vanilla chai latte—and it’s so hydrating. It’s also a clean-beauty brand, which I love seeing in sub boxes. I have this sitting on my bathroom vanity and I’ve been using it as hand lotion. While this is a hemp-based product, it’s not a CDB product.

--Willow Collective Warm & Cozy Mug (18 oz $15)—if I’m opening a box that’s supposed to have comfy, cozy items then I expect to get a mug and this mug did not disappoint. It’s heavy and large (almost the size of a soup mug) and will make the perfect Winter cocoa mug.

--Sexy Hair Holiday Light Up Charger ($12)—this is a cute decorative charger. While it’s supposed to be compatible with Android devices, the charger is a little too large for my phone. While I can use this for a bit light decoration for Instagram photos, I’m going to pass this to my Mom because she needs a new charger for her tablet.

--Price’s Fine Chocolate Peppermint Bark (2 oz bar $5)—I loved that this box contained a sweet treat and that it matched the season. I’m eager to give this bar a nibble although I’m more eager to add a chuck of it to my hot chocolate. If you’ve never had peppermint bark-infused hot chocolate, you have to give it a try. It’s the perfect Winter drink.

--Cozy Hub Cozy Socks ($12.99)—nothing screams cozy more than faux Sherpa, fluffy socks and I’m so pleased to have received them in this box, especially since I live in an old house with cold floors.

Number of products in box: 7 items

Wine Received ($24 a bottle)

I’m not a drinker, so I have no clue about wine.

2018 Tines California Chardonnay

2017 Speechless California Red Wine Blend

2019 Mad Love Pinot Grigio California

2019 New Crush California Rosé

Total Value of the Oh! Ho Ho! Holiday Box: $218.99

My Overall Thoughts: This is a great box. The monetary value of the products is there and the value of use is there. I know that I will use 5 out of the 7 items I received. The light up charger will go to my Mom and I’m still deciding on whether or not to use the blanket as a gift or keep it.

As for the wines, I really can’t give my opinion as I’m not a wine drinker but they will make fantastic gift additions. I’ve included some gifting ideas below. 

What would I like to see in the future from Vine Oh!

-I would like to see them offer a profile you could fill out that included things such as if your ears are pierced or if you have food allergies. Perhaps a complexion profile as makeup items are included.

-I think that a corkscrew should be included in your first box along with bottle stoppers.

 

 Gifting Ideas

 One of my favorite things about subscription boxes is that the items make amazing gifts.  Here’s a few ideas on how to turn your sub box products into great gifts. I either use the boxes or use a reusable gift box. All items expect for the two romance books and Paris gift box came in sub boxes. 

 Most of the product cards contained Coupon Codes, so I’ll leave these here for you to use if you so wish.
