Subscription boxes are becoming very popular, and it seems that everywhere you turn a new one is coming out. Although they usually run for ten dollars a month, it would add up if you subscribed to all of them because you wanted to figure out which one you fit you best.
Subscriptions boxes help if you’re indecisive on what you want, or want to try something new, and don’t know where to start.
