Have you thought about trying out a subscription box before, but always thought they were out of your budget? Don’t worry—you don’t need to clip coupons, you just need to know the right places to look! Meal kits and luxe skin care can get costly, but for less than $15, a monthly delivery service of freshly ground spice blends from Piquant Post Flavor Kits can turn bland chicken into an exotic meal, and FaceTory will refill your glam bag with a fresh supply of the best beauty sheet masks. There’s no reason why you need to wait until payday with these budget-friendly subscription boxes.
If you’re up for paying a little more, some of these boxes pack in amazing value at a great price, like Club Jeroboam, a wine subscription that aims to have you sip a mix of wines that match your personal tasting notes. Offering a range of subscription options, you can get high-quality full-size products and everyday essentials, like hot sauce, cruelty-free skincare, loose-leaf tea blends, and even a book-of-the-month club for a great value!
