The best subscription boxes provoke excitement and anticipation, and often feature high quality or novel products that are designed to surprise and brighten up the consumer’s day. However, some subscription services take this ‘surprise and novelty element’ to new heights, where the weird and the wacky take precedence. The huge advantage of these subscription boxes is the ‘fun factor’ and these ten companies below are not shy in emphasising this...
