Subscription boxes continue to become increasingly popular, because who doesn’t love a monthly bundle of necessities (and exciting goodies) delivered to your door? These subscription boxes will save you a trip to the store or make your day just a little less stressful.
Club W
If you enjoy trying new wines and hate paying through the roof for a bottle, you’ll appreciate this subscription. Club W is the fastest growing winery in the U.S. and because the company has taken out the middlemen, the customer ends up paying less for incredible wines. The site offers recommendations based on a palate profile you create online, which takes less than a minute to complete. You always have the option to skip a month and if you don’t like the bottle, you don’t have to pay for it. Choose monthly or on-demand shipments and expect delivery within two to three days. Three bottles a month for $39 + $6 flat-rate shipping. No shipping cost on orders of 6 or more bottles. Get 50 percent off your first Club W order by clicking here.
Love With Food
If you’re tired of the standard grocery store snacks, this company seeks out unique bites you won’t find everywhere. Choose from different size boxes or a gluten-free version of organic, all-natural snacks. A portion of each sale is donated to food banks in the U.S. Starting at $9.99/month for 8-10 snacks.

Honest Company
Liz Cadman’s website, My Subscription Addiction, is dedicated to reviewing just about every subscription box on the market. Cadman favors Honest Company’s Bundle Subscriptions. “From household cleaners to shampoo, to bath and body care, to diapers, this subscription covers all your basic necessities, and everything is all-natural,” says Cadman. Subscribers receive five items for $35.95, and you can add another three items to your bundle each month for a 25 percent discount.
Dollar Shave Club
You’ll never have to shave with a dull razor again! “Dollar Shave Club is a great way to make sure you never run out of razor blades, shave cream or other grooming supplies,” says Cadman. “Plus their prices are cheaper than the major razor blade brands. With both Dollar Shave Club and Honest Company, you can also adjust the frequency of when you receive packages to get the timing perfect!” Starting at $1/month (plus $2 S&H) to $9/month (ships free)
Foodstirs
Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar often uses Instagram to showcase food she has made for her children in a crafty way (think vegetables arranged in the shape of a flower). It’s no surprise then that she recently debuted Foodstirs, a monthly themed baking kit. Premium mixes, decorative supplies, and easy instructions make this a lifesaver for the novice baker or the perfect rainy day activity with your kids. If you don’t want to commit to a monthly subscription, you can also purchase individual mixes starting at $6.95. $19.95 for a new themed kit each month
Pooch Perks
If you’re a dog-lover who considers your pooch a member of the family, you’ll appreciate this doggie subscription. Receive a customized package of toys and treats each month that differs depending on the size of your dog. The treats are all natural and made in the USA. Four different packages ranging in price from $20 to $50/month. Use code FRIEND10 for 10 percent off your first order.
Craft Coffee
How annoying is it when you go to brew your morning cup of joe only to realize you’ve run out of coffee? Craft Coffee’s monthly delivery means you always have coffee on hand. Choose your coffees based on your tastes, and within days of being roasted fresh in Brooklyn, your coffee is shipped to your door. Praised by The New York Times and Food & Wine, this box also makes a thoughtful gift for the coffee lover in your life. $11.99/month for 12 oz. of artisan coffee in three different roasts
Bombfell
If your man is fashionably challenged (or just doesn’t like to shop), he will love this monthly subscription of stylish clothing from popular brands as well as new labels. Create a style profile, provide your measurements, and set a price range you feel comfortable spending. Then, let the stylists get to work creating the perfect selections for you. Shipping is free both ways and you only pay for what you choose to keep. Men have 10 days to try on the items at home. Starting at $69 per garment
Be on the lookout for: Play! by Sephora
Sephora’s the latest beauty company to jump on the subscription bandwagon, but with their superior beauty track record, you can bet this is one subscription you’ll want to try. Each box contains six mini must-haves and expert tutorials. It’s a great way to try a variety of brands and introduce you to the latest and greatest products.
The subscription is currently only available in limited release markets until the full national launch in early 2016. Put your name on the waitlist to try out the highly-anticipated subscription.
