I do also post reactions over on my YouTube Channel. I have also posted one for Red Velvet’s Zimzalabim, which you can watch below:
Since this post is actually an unboxing of the album, let’s actually talk about that. I picked up my copy of this album Music Plaza LA. You can get a copy here for $15.99, plus shipping. Additionally, if you have never used Music Plaza before, this link will get you an extra 5% off of your first purchase!
You can also order a copy of the album from an eBay, as they typically have good prices. This ADD LINK will get you a copy for ADD DOLLAR, plus free shipping. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the E-Bates extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
What is E-Bates?
E-Bates is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Ebates, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over 80$ back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used EBates before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using EBates. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Sokoglam typically has 3%. These percentages Many other major retailers are on there as well.
Can I get it on Amazon?
Yes! You can pick up a copy using this link for $16.60 (not as good of a deal), with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can get a 30-day free trial using this link here. I will not lie, the free 2-day shipping, plus all of the free music and videos are totally worth it. I also now use it for books for my Kindle Paper White too, and it is honestly a lifesaver. They have a program called Kindle Unlimited where you can check out 10 books at a time, read them, and put them back in the Kindle library. The program costs $7.99 a month, and you get the first 30 days for free with this link. Let me know if you all want some book recommendations!

K-Points: 18/5
Honestly, Zimzalabim has probably become one of my favorite Red Velvet songs. It’s fun, it’s bright, and completely strange while still being catchy, which is something I embrace. I do really enjoy this album, and I love the photo stand that came with it. That being said, in regards to packaging, this album is pretty basic. It doesn’t really have anything special about it or the things that come with it. The only thing that is special is the photos themselves.
So should you get yourself a copy of this album? Since this album came out, they have released two other parts, ReveFestival Day 2, and ReveFestival The Finale. If you are gong to buy one, buy the Finale. You get more music for the same price. Should you stream it? Absolutely. The tracks on the album are really good, incredibly catchy, and are all perfect when you want to have a bit of a mental pick-me-up.
