this looks like a great sub. however a lot of people have been posting in the box's thread that many of the products are discontinued.

I've never gotten anything that was discontinued.  I've been able to find everything on the individual companies websites whenever I check the cost to compare to the value of the box.  II need to go look for that thread.  I didn't even know there was one.

The Love Club sounds so dirty to me.  Maybe that's because I got a SpicySubscriptionx box in the mail yesterday and my mind is in the glutter. Picture may not be safe for work /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh my gosh... they're sending me a box to review, and wow it'll be interesting if I get that one!  There's no way I'm going to put... um... that word after "vibrating" on my blog!

And as naughty as it sounds, LoveClub is nothing like Spicy Subscriptions!  It's all indie/local business stuff from the Portland area.  It's been kind of hit-or-miss with me (my first month, all I got was paper stuff.  Cards, little prints, and a small watercolor. The next month, I got an amazing turquoise beaded bracelet that is my favorite item ever from a sub box).  But, I'm interested to see what Poppy Magazine does with it.  The first box they send is in May.

Oh and they just announced on FB that the new name will be "Poppy Parcels", so no more confusion with adult subs! (Is it weird that I quoted my own post?)

Love Club (and I just accidentally typed Love Chub, btw!) sounds waaaay dirtier than Spicy Subscriptions. Spicy made me think of food. Glad they changed their name! I added my name to the waitlist, but I'm not sure if I'll subscribe. They didn't have any info on prices or content yet.

 My blog has gotten a little crazy in the past few months.  Companies have been reaching out more and more (I never contact them).  I actually talked to the SpicySubscriptions guy the other day.  Told him it was my husband's favorite box.  BAHAHAHA.

I was very surprised to be contacted, but about 50% of my blog is sub box reviews, so I dunno?  It's the first time anyone's contacted me to review something, so I was all like "YES! Wait, what kind of box???"  Definitely not including any TMI in my review!

LOLOL I am so glad they are changing the name of that one, every time I used to see "love club" I think "sex sub." ROFL!

I got an Elizabeth & Clarke box today.  I was very impressed by the quality of the shirts!

 

[javagirl87]

i would LOVE to get that sub, but it's really just far far to expensive for me. i've gotten similar items for much less /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Has anyone ordered an Eco-Emi bonus box? Curious to see what people think of it. It's 29.99 so not sure if I want to try it out or not.

 

[KayEss]

I just ordered an Umba box with their Saint Patrick's Day coupon code...I know this one isn't "new" but I never hear many people talking about it.

I have.  It was great.  They're very generous with their bonus boxes un-like the mystery box that conscious box was selling with hardly anything in it for $19.99.  But I digress; there are items in it from past boxes and because I hadn't subbed long at that time, I couldn't tell that they were repeats. Samples and deluxe samples of all kinds of health, beauty aids and treats.   I was really psyched when I received it. I didn't feel ripped off or cheated at all.

Let us know what you think after receieving it, that is if you decide to purchase it.

I just bought one! I'm not a current subscriber, so I'm not worried about getting repeats, and it'll help me decide if I want to subscribe regularly.

(Doesn't that sound all logical and sensible?  I'm so impressed with myself! 

)

Bug Out Box is a preparation and discovery tool for essentials of survivability in all situations. Subscribers receive 5-8 products each month based on themes and lessons on survival.

It has a therm each month (hurricane, ice storm, wilderness, nuclear etc.)  It may be awful, but he's always saying how come he never gets things in the mail!  ...and it sounded like guy toys.  

Thanks for this! I knew about this company but it hadn't launched yet when I found them! Exciting that they've launched and they look like they see the humor in their box too.

I'm thinking of getting my hubby a 6 month sub for his birthday!  This is right up his alley... he loves the whole "zombie apocalypse" thing, lol

That just made my day! That list has taken soo much time and I now have 17 more boxes to add!
