4 Subscription Boxes to Try
Ashley 07.09.14
Having goods and services delivered straight to your door is hardly a new concept. After all, the entire concept of mail revolves around the necessity of exchanging physical goods. In an increasingly digitized world, some things just can’t be replicated, and that includes items like clothes, food, toiletries, and more. But the latest influx of subscription boxes–boxes containing themed items delivered on a regular basis–certainly use the web as a tool for branding and marketing. The good thing is that there are hundreds of subscription boxes to choose from. The bad thing is that there are hundreds of subscription boxes to choose from. With reviews from SubscriptionBox.com in mind, we searched the web and found several subscription boxes worth checking out.
Birchbox
Birchbox’s popularity has helped solidify subscription services as a viable business model. And for busy men and women, it’s an excellent–and inexpensive–way to try out new toiletries. Each box comes with samples like lotion, cosmetics, perfumes/cologne, and other hygiene and beauty products. Women’s 
subscriptions start at $10/month, and men’s subscriptions start at $20/month. Birchbox.com.
Bespoke Post
Bespoke Post’s boxes are a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of items included in each box is sure to be a hit for those with a love for life’s finer things. Subscribers can pay $45 a month, or purchase individual boxes for $55 each. While most of the boxes cater to men, there’s quite a few items women would like, too. For instance, The Butcher box comes with everything one needs to prepare the perfect cut of meat. Bespokepost.com.
NatureBox
Sometimes eating healthy is easier said than done. Cooking healthy meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner can mean that the snacks needed throughout the day are forgotten. We like NatureBox because it contains plenty of satiating foods. Five NatureBoxes are delivered monthly for $19.95; that’s about $4 per box, which is certainly comparable to the cost of buying the food separately from a market or grocery store. Not a bad way to cheaply pad up your monthly groceries. NatureBox.com.
Mystery Tackle Box
For the avid fishing fan, this box is a welcome monthly package full of fishing paraphernalia. This is a great gift for an experienced fisherman or woman, or it can serve as an introduction to the sport for a beginner. $45 for a three month subscription, or $15 per box. MysteryTackleBox.com.
