Exploring a New World in Shopping
Dollar Shave Club seems to be the trendsetter in monthly subscription boxes, but it’s not the only option out there. Especially in the wake of 2020’s unpleasantness, there’s a new industry in subscription box services. Here we’ll briefly explore four to help give you an idea of what’s possible, and what you might like.
1. The House Plant Box
Foliage makes a house a home in a very simple, beautiful way. Vines can make an empty room with white walls seem like a tropical paradise. Flowers in the center of a table make the whole room feel in bloom. Such plants also purify the air by “breathing” it and trapping the toxins within them.
There’s a lot to recommend a large number of plants throughout your home, but the truth is, it can be hard to find which particular house plants best fit your decorative preferences. Options like the house plant box from Bouqs can continuously renew your home’s décor without forcing you to commit one way or another. You can try different options, find what works, and go with that. If you don’t like something, you can let it fade and wait for the next month. Also, such boxes help you increase home foliage. It can be tiresome to seek out plants on an ongoing basis. When they’re delivered right to your front door, that takes the difficulty out of it.

2. Staying Beautiful as a Birch With Birchbox
Birch trees have a stark sort of beauty, and perhaps this is part of the inspiration behind Birchbox, which has taken the name of this particular tree. With Birchbox, you’ll get beautification products delivered to your front door every month. You can explore varying products to find what you resonate with, what you don’t like, and what you’re indifferent about.
3. Winc and Beer of the Month: Wine and Beer Subs
Who doesn’t love a cold pint of beer after a hot day? Who doesn’t like a little wine to unwind? Winc offers a monthly wine box, and Beer of the Month sends you different IPAs and the like every month. You can do one, both, or neither; but the option is out there to have excellent beverages delivered to your front door every month.
You can use these “spirit” deliveries to sample new kinds of alcohol, or you can make the day the delivery comes your monthly party weekend; go with whatever works.
4. A Little Murray’s Cheese to Go With That Wine Subscription
Cheese is delicious, it’s nutritious, and it’s very diverse. There are so many different types of cheeses, and so many different flavors to those cheeses, that without some sort of cheese box delivered every month, it can be hard to even know what you’re missing. Do you know, off the top of your head, the difference between a Stilton and a Havarti?
Murray’s Cheese can help you learn the distinction, and discover new cheeses you love. Basically, you get a box of options every month, you try them out, you keep what you like, you give what you don’t like to that nosy neighbor, and you wait for the next box to come in the following month.

Finding Which Subscription Options You Like the Most
Murray’s Cheese, Winc, Beer of the Month, Birchbox, and plant boxes from Bouqs are all fine options to consider. These are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to available subscription boxes. Explore what’s out there, experiment, and find a few boxes that pique your curiosity.
