11 Best Subscription Boxes Americans Are Going Crazy Over

Nowadays it’s pretty easy to get anything you want delivered right to your doorstep-but in most cases you still have to do the actual shopping and curating for yourself. That’s where subscription boxes come in. For either a monthly or a per-delivery fee, you can now have someone else handle the curation, and all you have to do is sit back and get a box full of cool stuff every month. (Or, in some cases, whenever you want it.) Whether it’s clothes, grooming supplies, coffee, or even booze, here are the 11 best subscription boxes to buy right now, click any of the links to learn more.

1. Home Chef


Restaurant-quality recipes with an eye towards nutrition. This weekly meal kit subscription sends you everything you need to make 2 to 6 healthy, tasty lunches or dinners per week for 2 to 6 people. Each new weekly menu is posted on their site (you can actually access entire recipes without having to sign up), along with details of each meal (what’s carb or calorie-conscious, which recipes are vegetarian, whether any potential allergens appear in the recipes, which recipes are staff or customer favorites, etc.). When you subscribe, Home Chef collects your preferences around what you do and don’t like to eat and matches you with meals from the weekly menu. Of course, you can also log in and pick your own meals, too. ABC 7 conducted an independent test to see how Home Chef pricing stands up to grocery store costs. The result? Cooking with Home Chef was, on average, 65% cheaper than shopping for the same ingredients at the supermarket, including shipping.

2. Scentbird


Who doesn’t want to smell amazing all the time? Scentbird is a perfume sampling subscription box that sends you 100% authentic perfumes every month. When you sign up, you take a preferences quiz to help them suggest recommendations for you to try, and you can also go browse and rate the rest of their selection to make the recommendations even more accurate. You can build a queue of fragrances you’d like to try or you can let yourself be surprised every month. When you subscribe to Scentbird you get a monthly $15 credit towards purchasing a full-sized bottle!

3. Wantable – Personal Clothing Shopper


Tired of trying to figure out what to buy? Wantable is a personal clothing shopper service. For a $20 monthly styling fee, a Wantable “Style Editor” will assemble a selection of 7 clothing items that align with your fashion likes and dislikes, as indicated in your style profile that you complete via Wantable’s website. Take 5 days to evaluate the clothing. Keep what you like and Wantable will bill you for your choices. Return what you don’t want in a pre-paid mailer. The $20 styling fee is applied as a credit towards any items you decide to keep and purchase from your monthly selection. If your Style Editor hits a home run and you decide to keep everything in your shipment, Wantable gives you an additional 20% discount. Wantable Style Edit is a monthly subscription, but you can skip a month or cancel anytime. They also offer a Wantable Fitness package which will send you items specifically for fitness.

4. FabFitFun Box


The FabFitFun box has a little of everything, making it a great gift for anyone on your holiday gift list.

5. Butcher Box


Have you ever had grass fed beef or heritage breed pork? Although we are pretty big carnivores in my house, I’d never indulged in these goodies until last week when my Butcher Box arrived in the mail. Our box arrived well packed and protected. The meat was vacuum sealed and hard as a rock with 11 pounds of dry ice to keep everything frozen. Butcher Box is a subscription service that delivers amazing, humanely raised grass-fed beef, heritage breed pork and organic pastured chicken right to your doorstep. You can also get other meat-lovers’ delights like steaks, bacon and breakfast sausage.

6. Shaker & Spoon


Want to make great drinks that will wow your guests? Then look no further. Shaker & Spoon will send you everything you need to turn you into an expert mixologist. Each month you’ll get 3 unique recipes by top bartenders + everything you need to make 12 drinks (4 from each recipe) other than the liquor-syrups, bitters, mixers, garnishes & more. You’ll be exposed to new flavors & combos, and look at your liquor cabinet in a whole new way. For men this is a surefire way to impress a date…

7. Bark Box


Why should humans get all the fun? With BarkBox for dogs and KitNipBox for cats, your pets can enjoy their own gift-of-the-month clubs.

BarkBox includes at least two toys, two bags of all-natural treats, and a doggy-pleasing chew in each month’s themed box. If your pooch is an exceptionally tough chewer, you can upgrade to the Heavy Chewer or Super Chewer options, which include tougher toys and heavy-duty chews.

8. Splash Wines – Stop Paying Retail Prices


If you ever wanted to explore new wines from around the world and pay a fraction of the retail price, then Splash Wines is for you!

Splash curates some of the highest quality wines and provides them to you at steep discounts. For instance, many customers are receiving bottles of wine that usually cost between $20-$30 for only $10 per bottle. How do they offer such low prices? Since Splash doesn’t have retail stores, they are able to bypass the middle-man, like importers and distributors, and then they pass the savings on to their customers.

9. Dollar Shave Club


Dollar Shave Club really uprooted the grooming game with its monthly subscription service. You can opt in for the products you need the most (like razors and blades) and have flexibility on delivery. Dollar Shave has expanded into the non-shaving world, too, so you aren’t limited to just hair removal. The company also offers shampoos, lotions, and body wipes. Despite what you might think, this subscription isn’t just for men. Millions of women are now using dollar shave club to get shaving razors delivered to them.

10. Graze – For Snack Lovers


Graze is a new subscription box that is perfect for people who love to munch on snacks. Graze has nearly 100 snack options, and they all offer some sort of health benefit: low calorie, high protein, low sodium, etc. Snacks include nuts and seeds, dried fruit, crackers, dips and dippers, and more. Graze will provide you with healthy snacks that you probably would never try on your own. Their users rave about snacks like roasted chili honey peanuts & almonds, kettlecorn kern pops, cinnamon pretzel, twist of black pepper popcorn, herby bread basket, and zesty chili lime cashews.
