1. What was the first subscription box you ever signed up for? The first box I ever signed up for was POPSUGAR! It popped up in my Facebook feed before they launched in 2012 and I thought, wow, this looks fun. Little did I know what that would start! I am not 100% sure what was the first box I actually received though. My guess would be ipsy or Citrus Lane??

2. What was your first job?  Mine was working at the Dairy Queen! All my friends worked there too, so it was quite fun. Plus we got to eat all the ice-cream we wanted for free while we were there, which was also fun ;).

That’s it from here! I’m looking forward to hearing your answers.

Spread the love

    1. Ipsy, I remember a friend of mine posting a picture on Instagram and I signed up right away. It was an uphill battle after that.
    2. My first job was at a trophy shop, I loved that job… I sat at a computer all day creating plaques and whatnot on a laser machine. It was so cool to watch! I worked hard, but I miss that job…

    1. Just last month. I wanted to try a sub so I signed up for both Ipsy and Walmart. It was before the change of season so I got Walmart almost right away but had to mail Ipsy for them to take me off the list. Still I got the April bag ???.
    2. A CS agent in a call center. I was an interpreter. Pretty nice but can get boring after a while. It is one of the best jobs I’ve had.

    1- I think it was Nature box; really good size snacks to try there.
    2- hometown movie theatre selling tickets and popping corn; eat all the popcorn you want and saw movies for free. i’m still hooked on popcorn.

    Citrus Lane for sure. I’m pretty sure I signed up through your link. LOL
    I worked at Uptons Department store from when I was 16 until I graduated college. I loved it there for a retail job.

    My first box was Merco Local (a Utah specific box)….they had an offer to get your first box free so I signed up… That was April 2014 ..I had no idea sub boxes even existed until then! … I went a little crazy in the beginning and also signed up for Love with Food, Nibblr, Graze, Taste for Sweets & Birchbox…. Merco Local arrived first.

    My first job was at Payless Drug Store as a cashier in 1990…I was a bit spoiled and my friends told me I would never get a job. Once I got it they said I wouldn’t last 2 weeks… So I worked 3 days and then turned in my 2 weeks notice…lol To be fair I applied at the store that was 5 minutes away from my house…but they sent my app to a store that was 35minutes away (by freeway)…at 17 I was not impressed with the commute back and forth…..lol
