Subscription boxes are having a moment. Maybe it's the child in all of us or the Christmas morning-effect, but it's always exciting getting a surprise package from the mailman. Perfect for yourself or as a gift, subscription services are growing in popularity, allowing you to stay home and wait for the mail instead of going out shopping.
We're all aware of the ever-popular beauty boxes and food services that you can get delivered straight to your door, but did you know you can get almost anything delivered monthly? Seriously.
Our three favorite words: add to cart.
From succulents to fashion finds, there is a subscription box for everyone. Cratejoy is a site filled with curated subscription boxes for everyone and every interest.

Wickbox
Perfect for the candle collector, Wickbox will send you a new medium or large candle to your doorstep every month. Not only are the candles high-quality and in beautiful containers and jars, the company has you fill out a scent profile before your first box arrives, so they can choose a unique scent just for you. Sounds scent-sational if you ask us (yes, we went there)!
Smartass & Sass
This subscription box is snarkier than a Real Housewife. The Smartass & Sass box will deliver 4 to 8 cheeky products with quotes and prints for your most cynical of friends (or yourself). Some of the handmade items include bags, pins, notebooks, mugs, and much more with a whole lot of personality.
