Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
Looking back, I realized that the most popular poll ever was “How Many Boxes Do You Subscribe To“? 336 of you answered and the winner, by far, was 2-5 boxes a month. So now I want to know what your favorite box(es) are. I think I did this poll a while ago, but it’s time to do it again. I’m including some of my favorites (and some of the more popular and well known ones) in the poll, but please please please add your favorite if it’s not in there.
And just for fun, let’s pretend you had $100/month to spend on boxes? What would you get? This is SO hard, but I’d probably go for:
~PopSugar ($35)
~Birchbox ($10)
~Goodies Co. ($7)
~Citrus Lane ($25)
~Kiwi Crate ($19.95)
And that leaves me with $3.05 to spare to maybe get a frappe?? Of course, I would probably cancel these every other month to switch it up and try new boxes, but this is where I’d start. Something for everyone. Well, except B. But I figure he’d have his own $100 to spend. He’d get:
~Mantry ($75)
~Birchbox Man ($20)
And he’d have $5 to get a beer or something!
So what about you? What are your favorite boxes? And if you had $100 to spend on boxes, which one would you get? I cannot wait to hear everyone’s answers!
Unfortunately, I think I already spend $100 on boxes each month 🙂 I am loving the new Babbabox format – that’s a big hit in our house.
@Elizabeth:
We get Goodies, Birchbox, Birchbox Man, Citrus Lane and Babbabox. Hmmm… there might be enough money left for another box 😉
The question of which boxes would I spend if I only had $100 is exactly what I am trying to figure out now! I think I would do:
consciousbox $20 (assuming you didn’t have a coupon code)
naturebox $30 (that is the 10 bag option, better value)
IPSY $11 (tax in my state)
Birchbox $10
New Beauty Test Tube $20 (because it is almost $40 every other month)
Julep $10 (let’s assume I skip every other month, I LOVE that option)
so that is $101…busted.
If I had a younger child, I would certainly do either citrus lane or Kiwi Crate, but mine are 6 and 8 years old.
Technically I only get one box (Goodies starts next month I think) so Popsugar kind of wins by default.
But the main reason I don’t get more boxes is that I subscribe to “scrapbooking” kits. Monthly kits that come full of scrapping product. Those average about $30 a month each but (and this is a big but)…they have “extra kits” you can buy…and if you get some of those, those kits can run you up to $100 a month! I swear I don’t scrap enough to warrant the kits but I still get them. Hmmm….maybe I should stop getting scrap stuff and more of these boxes.
And of course there are the wine and champagne clubs that send every month or so 🙂
My favorites are Goodies (not in your poll), Glossybox, Birchbox and two that you don’t list: Treatsie and Jungle Stand! I have other subs, but they aren’t my favorite, and if I didn’t pay for a year, they would be cancelled (I’m talking to you Ipsy) .
If I had only $100.00 per month, I would watch everyone else’s boxes and on my own purchase just the items I thought were interesting. I did that after I cancelled PopSugar, and I haven’t purchased an item yet, lol. Maybe someday! I’m really trying to simplify my life and these boxes aren’t helping. At least the edible ones disappear 😉
I wish I had $100 a month to put towards subscription boxes!
Birchbox- $10
Bark Box- $20
Julep Maven- $20
Pop Sugar- $35
Ipsy- $10
I’d have $5 extra that I would spend on starbucks or ice cream!
Citrus Lane $25
Nature Box $19.95
Goodies $7
Babbabox $29.99
Love with food $12 or I’d switch the last 2 to Honest Co 🙂
citrus lane, birchbox, popsugar (I cancelled andmiss it) , and julep
I would probably alternate the julep each month with something elsethough 🙂
I can’t believe you restricted us to two favorites 🙂 How could I possibly choose just two?…With $100/month to spend on subscription boxes, I would get PopSugar, Birchbox, Barkbox, Julep & Ipsy 🙂
So many boxes to choose from! I wish I had $100 to spend on subscription boxes lol.
Julep Maven- $20
Birchbox- $10
Golden Tote- $49
Glossybox- $21
$100 exactly! lol
@Alicia: oops! didn’t mean to post twice.
I really like Ipsy, Goodies, and Wantable, so those would go towards my $100 dream budget! Then I think I’d use the remainder to try one of the art boxes out there, like Art in a Box or Fair Ivy. Wish I had that much to spend every month!
Hmm…that’s a hard one since I kind of just got into subscription boxes. I would probably get Wantable ($36), Julep ($19.99), NatureBox ($19.95), and Pawalla Mini for Cats ($20). So that would leave my around $4 to spend on catching the bus.
Citrus lane, popsugar, goodie co, and some craft one. I need to find one I like.
Conscious Box should be on the list – its awesome!
$100 I would get:
PopSugar – $30 (I use a coupon each month)
BirchBox -$10
Kiwi Crate – $19.95
Conscious Box – $19.95
Nature Box – $19.95
I’d probably only buy bluum, citrus lane and ipsy. That leaves me 40.05 to spend which I will end up buying stuff from Target or Forever 21, lol.
Ummm…. I probably spend much more than $100 a month on boxes…. don’t tell me husband!
I get:
ipsy
Yuzen (quarterly tho you know)
Julibox
Love with Food
Bark Box
The Happy Trunk
Kiwi Crate (not every month tho, I will pick up one every now and then)
Julep
Graze box (weekly)
Spoiled Rotten Box (I do it every other month)
Boink Box (the quarterly one)
And I recently canceled a few cause it was getting out of hand! Lol…. And if I had to cancel more I don’t know where I would start! I love them all!
PS: Thinking I am going to have to sign up for Bonjour jollie!
This post couldn’t have come at a better time as Tim and I are about to combine our incomes and he is allowing me to have a $100 box allowance, lol! Anything extra I want has to come out of my allowance, lol! So I am of course keeping PopSugar, Ipsy, Goodies, Citrus Lane, Julep (because I can skip) and FabFitFun as that is 4x a year so it doesn’t count, lol! I want to add stork stack so I am going to talk to him about that tonight!
I would subscribe to ipsy, PopSugar, and Glossybox. Then I would switch up month’s with either Wantable’s makeup box, Julep, or BarkBox. I would subscribe to Barkbox, but my little dog wouldn’t be so little if she ate all the treats it contained in a month!
If I only spent $100 per month on boxes, I’d get:
Pop sugar $30 (I prepay for 3 months at a time.)
Birch box $10
Ipsy $10
Kiwi crate $25 (I do the sibling add on & prepay for a year.)
Goodies $7
Pawalla mini $18
