Now for today's topic - Subscription Boxes
What is it? Well it is a monthly subscription that delivers to your mailbox/doorstep a box of goodies. There are boxes of nail polish, jewelry, food, snacks, candles, beauty products, beverages, books, crafts, clothing, fitness, fragrance, hair, men's grooming, and much more. I mean, honestly, if you have someone who loves oat meal....there's a box for that. Gift wrap....there's a box for that.There is pretty much a box for practically anything you can think of.
There is one lady in the blog world who I think has this whole subscription box thing on lock down. For that reason I am not going to try to recreate the wheel. Instead allow me to direct you to her blog site.
SubscriptionBoxRamblings
She has a list by category with all the details.
But here are some of the ones we have personally tried.
ipsy - $10/month; you receive a glam bag with beauty products
glossy box - $21/month; you receive 5 luxury beauty products
Elizabeth & Clarke - $30-60; you receive 1-3 designer blouses/tees every 3 months
Graze - $11.99/ month; natural nut and seed mixes, dried fruits, etc.
Watanut - $25/month; snack mixes
Birchbox - $10/month; beauty and grooming products
Julep-Maven - $24.99/month; nail polishes galore
Bootaybag - $12/month; 2 pairs of underwear each month
Most Subscription boxes allow you to choose a time period (3 months, 6 months, etc) Just read the details when you sign up.
Subscription boxes are truly a gift that keeps on giving.
And that hard to buy for person may just be the perfect candidate.
Be prepared. It will take you some time to look through her list but it is worth it and you are bound to find something to interest you.
In other news Bath and Body Works is offering a coupon book with any purchase. You can pick up anything you need and get 4 coupons to use now thru Christmas. Here is what you get:
Lastly, I always good hooked by the seasonal flavors offered by Oreos. I have just about tried them all. Well these were by the checkout yesterday and once again I could not resist
The cookie part is more of a graham flavor and the cream.....well I am not sure if I had not read the package if I would have guessed Apple Pie but it is quite tasty. They won't be around long. I am pretty much eating one (or two) every time I pass the counter.
I hope you have a great weekend. Cool Temps in the forecast and that makes me super happy. Meet you back here on Monday.
