Unfortunately, our container's interior seal was broken.  I'm a little weird about stuff like that, so we won't use it, but it smells great!  These things happen sometimes and even if you take the value of this product out of the total, the cost of the box is way less than the total value of the rest of the products.

Get the Outdoor Gear You Need with a Monthly Subscription to Alpha Outpost--The Raptor Box Edition #spon


*DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Alpha Outpost for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 




Spring is here on the Texas coast and that means it's time to get outside!  We love doing anything that gets us outside...from fishing to hiking, kayaking to camping, we LOVE being outdoors!  Spending so much time outdoors means we are always on the lookout for gear that helps us enjoy the things we love in a safe and healthy way and if they add a little convenience, that's definitely a good thing!  Alpha Outpost is an amazing company that offers super awesome and useful outdoor gear in a monthly themed box. 




This month's theme is the Raptor Box which focuses on essential blades:



This box included two karambit knives and a CUMA monster cleaver plus the 550 cord to wrap the handles and the Raptor patch.

Karambit Knives

The karambit is a rather remarkable multi-use knife designed for user safety, precision and efficiency. It has a curved or hooked blade, an ergonomic handle and usually includes at least one safety ring. Traditionally, the karambit's design is based on a tiger's claw. As such, the razor-sharp blade should be optimized for hooking, tearing, ripping, slicing and maximum efficiency with minimal effort.  It can be used for gutting, cleaning, scaling, scoring, slicing ropes, survival situations and many other functional purposes.


Plus, they look really cool!

CUMA Monster Cleaver

Designed by Waysun Johnnt Tsai, this combat ready cleaver is pretty boss!


The design of this blade makes it ideal for chopping and cutting.



The Raptor Box came equipped with 3 colors of 550 cord (paracord) that can be used to wrap the handles of any blade.  If you are familiar with 550 cord, you know that it can be used in countless situations both outdoors and indoors.  This sturdy cord is super versatile and an essential part of our survival kit.


The Raptor Patch

This month's patch came already affixed to the sheath for the cleaver...really cool patch this month!

The Raptor Box wouldn't be complete with without the information sheet full of handy tips for using and caring for your new blades!



We are super stoked about the Raptor Box this month!  Fun and function in one box...can't be beat!

Being a member of Alpha Outpost has lots of fun and useful perks.  They offer life-saving training tips via magazine articles and videos.  The gear they offer is great quality and every item in this box is something we would use...the sure sign of the perfect subscription box!

Alpha Outpost boxes are $54.95/Mo+S/H and worth every penny in my opinion! Plus, members get past boxes for $39.95, so you can catch up on all the cool gear you've missed.  

If you live an active outdoor lifestyle, check out Alpha Outpost, get your gear and get outside!!

Introducing ZitsTM (EWWW!) Pop n’ Play Pimples! #spon #giveaway


*DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Zits for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

First came the whoopie cushion, then stink bombs, fake vomit, slime and poop emoji toys.  Now New York City’s NSI International, Inc. is taking “gross” to a whole new level. Introducing ZitsTM (EWWW!) pop n’ play pimples. 


In searching for the next big thing, NSI turned to a massive cultural trend – a social media fascination with pimple popping. 
Oddly enough, hundreds of millions of viewers around the world are tuning into platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Reddit to watch people pop zits. There are even celebrity zit poppers. One dermatologist, dubbed “Dr. Pimple Popper,” has 3.2 million YouTube subscribers and almost 1,000 videos, with a staggering 2 billion views.  Ummm, okay...thar's nuts y'all! 😊


It's easy to apply this gag toy, just peel and stick wherever.



To start, we tried the two finger approach on a zit placed on my face.  We found too much pressure was needed to pop the zit that way (it kinds hurt!) so we tried popping one applied to my hand. 



Again, to much force was needed.  You  should definitely place these in areas that it doesn't hurt when excessive pressure is applied.  We did have a little more luck with the "one finger" approach, but the zits were easiest to pop when we squeezed them alone (not attached to the skin) or stuck them on more forgiving surfaces, like the table.


The ooze that comes out is a fun slime, which, though it seems gross, was fun to play with.

Zits pop 'n play pimples are safe and non-toxic. They come in several sizes and are being sold in a massive pack of 100 for $19.99 at IGotZits.com. They will be coming to Walmart and other major retailers this Spring and will be sold in packages of 25, with an MSRP of $4.99.

Check out Zits in action:


If your kiddos are fans of potty humor, they will love Zits!
