Come Buy! Come Buy!

Morning and evening

Maids heard the goblins cry:

“Come buy our orchard fruits,

Come buy, come buy:

Christina Rossetti’s poem “Goblin Market” has long been one of my favorites.  It’s charming and scary, beautiful and frightening, all at the same time.  I use this piece of it now, however, to talk about my subscription boxes.  I have three subscriptions right now, and the husband has one (Loot Crate).

I have:

Ipsy

Try the World

Book Riot’s YA box

Of all of them, I’ve been an Ipsy member the longest:over a year now, and I love it.  It’s priced right; I love the product; I love the packaging.

I’ve just gotten two of the Book Riot Quarterly boxes, and absolutely love them both.  I think it is my favorite, overall, not surprising, since it’s all about books!

I’m on the fence about Try the World.  I love the concept, and we don’t have a Cost Plus World Market, so it fills that niche for me.  However, I don’t know if I feel the products are worth the $39.

What subscriptions do you have, Friends?
