Unclaimed Mail — Mystery Box Inside a Mystery Box!

 My mom opened a few more boxes today, and this round of unclaimed mail from Surprise Chest kept us guessing. The first item was some kind of seat covers. We think they’re seat covers, anyway. They’re shaped like seat covers, they feel like seat covers, but we still have no idea what kind of seats they’re supposed to go on.

The next box turned out to be a subscription craft box, and it was packed with tons of craft supplies. It felt like we opened a mystery box inside a mystery box!

Check out the video below to see everything we uncovered. If you want to explore more unclaimed‑mail adventures, check out Maryann’s funniest finds or compare today’s haul to Fernando’s pirate‑themed unboxing.

Making Real Money with Apps — Fetch Rewards

Welcome to the first post in my new series where I test out apps that claim you can earn real money just by using them. Today we’re starting with one of my longtime favorites: Fetch Rewards.

Fetch is a free app that lets you scan your receipts to earn points, which you can then exchange for gift cards. It doesn’t matter where you shop — grocery stores, gas stations, pharmacies, dollar stores, restaurants — if you get a receipt, you can scan it. Every receipt earns a minimum of 25 points, but the real fun comes from the bonus points you can get when you buy certain name‑brand products. And Fetch makes those bonus moments entertaining. When you hit a bonus, their little mascots pop up and act out tiny animated shows that kids will love.

My Experience Using Fetch

I’ve been using Fetch for about two years, and in that time I’ve cashed out $150, all from receipts I would’ve thrown away anyway. I always choose Amazon gift cards, but Fetch offers tons of options: restaurants, retail stores, travel, entertainment, and even Visa/Mastercard prepaid cards. You can also link your Amazon and Walmart accounts so Fetch can automatically scan your digital receipts.

Fetch also has:

• Sweepstakes entries you can redeem with points

• Referral bonuses when you invite friends

• Special brand challenges for extra points

• Seasonal promotions that boost your earnings

Why Fetch Works

Fetch is one of the easiest earning apps because:

• You don’t have to activate offers

• You don’t have to clip coupons

• You don’t have to shop at specific stores

• You don’t have to track anything

You just scan receipts. That’s it. It’s simple, consistent, and fun, especially when those mascots start dancing. If you’re looking for a legit, low‑effort way to earn gift cards, Fetch Rewards is a great place to start. It’s beginner‑friendly, kid‑approved, and rewarding. Whether you’re saving up for holiday shopping or just want a little extra spending money, Fetch makes it easy. Stay tuned for the next post in this series, where I’ll test another app and see how it stacks up. If you decide to sign up, please use my link or invite code: H65F69.

Amazon Mystery Box #4 — Part 2

 We’re back with part two of my fourth Amazon mystery box from ResellablesMA.com. Regular price is $55 each, but they are having a Christmas in July sale this weekend and all their boxes are $5 off.

This half of the box was just as random and entertaining as the first. There were a few dish drainers made from porous stone. Then came a bundle of artificial tulips from a company called Viking Panda.

The most random item I received was book from 1994 titled “How to Make Love to Your Wife.” I’m not sure what algorithm decided that belonged in my box,. Vintage relationship advice from the 90s? Sure. Why not. Check out the video below to see everything else I pulled from this half!

Another Amazon Mystery Box from Resellables Part 1

 I think this is my fourth Amazon mystery box from ResellablesMA.com, but who’s counting at this point? As usual, the box was way too packed to fit into one video, so this post covers just the first half of the unboxing and it already delivered a great mix of surprises.

Right out of the gate, this batch included nails, earrings, and pillowcases, just to name a few things. It was one of those boxes where every item felt totally different from the last — beauty supplies, accessories, home goods — the full Amazon roulette experience. Check out the video below to see everything I pulled from the first half.

This week they had an amazing deal: 3 boxes for $120, plus $28 shipping per box (they’re heavy, so it makes sense). Regular price is $55 each, so the sale was too good to pass up. I'll have another box to open soon. My friend Heather from I'm in a Zen Garden State of Mind will have one as well!

Between the great pricing, the variety, and the sheer amount of stuff packed into each box, ResellablesMA continues to be my favorite mystery‑box seller. Even when I think I’ve seen it all, they still manage to surprise me.

Scrooged is FREE for Christmas in July

Stan Hope never cared much for his son-in-law Justyn Patko.

His black clothes and body piercings were bad enough, but the ridiculous notion of dragging Rebecca off to Broadway with a new baby on the way pushes Stan over the edge. How much can a father take?

After losing his cool at a holiday party, Stan gets a visit from three unexpected spirits. Can they help to change his close-minded ways?

Available exclusively on Amazon.

Unclaimed Mail Unboxing — Bup Boxes with Heather!

Bup Boxes is one of the newer unclaimed‑mail companies on the scene, started by two brothers who wanted to bring the thrill of mystery‑mail hunting to everyday shoppers. Their boxes are packed with random returns, lost packages, and subscription surprises. Since they’re still growing, every box feels a little different, which is half the fun.

This time, I teamed up with my friend Heather from I’m in a Zen Garden State of Mind to split a box together. Instead of dividing everything at the end, we decided to open one package each, side‑by‑side, so we could react together and make it a whole event.

My package was two matching t‑shirts and we decided we’re wearing them to the office for Wacky Wednesday. Heather’s big pull was a glass for her nonexistent daughter‑in‑law. Check out the video below to watch the full unboxing and see our reactions in real time.

Surprise Chest Unclaimed Mail — Pirate Fernando & Pipe Cleaners for Days!!!

The next batch of unclaimed mail from Surprise Chest was opened by Fernando, and he took the pirate‑treasure theme very seriously. The moment he saw the pirate hat and eye patch included in the package, he put them on like he was about to commandeer the living room. Full commitment. Zero hesitation.

His haul was surprisingly practical this time. First, he pulled out two resin molds, which he inspected like they were ancient relics. Then came a package of what had to be a thousand green pipe cleaners; no exaggeration. My mom claimed those and said she’s bringing them to the grade school where she works, elementary‑schools can never have too many craft supplies.

Finally, Fernando unearthed about a dozen canvas gift bags in all different colors. We still have lots of packages left in this treasure chest, so stay tuned for more unboxings!
