There’s just something about subscription boxes – perfect for those seeking a little adventure, you indicate some interests of yours to a subscription website and just wait for a monthly package to arrive in the mail. It’s like receiving a present every month and in the wise words for Forrest Gump, you never know what you’re gonna get.
