I try to get one every purchase of something else. Of all the boxes, probably 5 or 6, I have received only one item, twice, that I have no use for. The camouflage contact lens holder. It is nice but no one I know needs one. I have received, knives, cooking utensils, scarves, reusable mask w/filter pocket, one of those credit card sized tool kit, gamer headphones w/microphone, and other things I can use or give to my caregiver. She gets so excited to see whats in one, every time I get one, even if there is nothing for her. Its worth more than I pay for it! Yes I always get a value of $40 or more! I guess it is in how you look at the items whether you like the box or think it is junk!
