One of the most exciting human experiences is receiving packages. Even though your coveted prize may take a long journey to your front door or mailbox, the wait is (usually) worth it. What if you could have that feeling every month? That’s where subscription boxes have your back.

“But aren’t they always expensive and just for food and fandom stuff?” You may ask. No! There are tons of subscription boxes available that cover way more than just meal prep and knickknacks. Below are some examples of subscription boxes that are not only affordable, but beneficial to one’s health.
