However...one of my favorite youtube rabbit holes is watching people do unboxings of "Subscription Boxes".
Say what you will, buying subscription boxes is gambling in my mind. You are paying your hard earned money for a box of things you might not even like. I mean...
But there are a few subscription boxes that I stalk and consider buying each time they pop up in my YouTube recommendeds.
I've followed Boho Berry's YouTube channel since I started playing around with the Bullet Journal format. And she has fantastic handwriting, pretty esthetic, and a calming voice that rivals some of the ASMR videos I watch. So when she came up with a subscription box, I was intrigued. Not enough to buy because I don't know what's in it, but I keep an eye on the products she recommends. This box is mostly black and white sticker sheets you can color, various pens and paper products, and some kind of washi tape. |
The "Mighty Fix" is one of the few subscription boxes I broke down and tried. I had to cancel when I realized I needed to cut expenses. But this was something I adored getting. It was only $10/month, but it was always something that could be used. The nice dish towels, the dryer balls, the metal straws, all of it was something I could incorporate easily into my home and took away something disposable I was using. When finances are a bit more stable, this is one I'll be signing back up for. I loved it. And I still sneak around to see what others are getting. |
There are some boxes that I moon over like no others. Ones that I sigh as I watch people open them or shop past boxes. The Sparkle Hustle Grow box is my latest obsession. Not only do you get surprise goodies, but you also gain access to an online class! I have been an online class and webinar hoe lately and this speaks to me on all levels. But...it's $40/month. I have no doubt it's a killer value, but again, it's filled with items I probably wouldn't have bought otherwise. This is one of those dream boxes that I want to get my hands on just because I know it would make me feel giddy to open. |
