Subscription boxes are the new craze, but the choices can be down-right overwhelming. Wellness360 has got you covered! We went on the search for the top subscription boxes, tested every snack (yes, every snack), tried every product and have delivered our favorite boxes, with all the details.

It is scary to hit the gym during a pandemic, but you can still stay in shape at home with Gainz Box. This box does a great job giving you a variation of apparel (in your size), equipment, snacks, supplements and all things fitness. Our box had whey protein infused popcorn which sounds weird, but I can’t get enough of it!

Vinebox

SUBSCRIPTION TYPE: Quarterly (Seasonal)

PRICE: $79 per quarterly box; Holiday Special Pictured: 12 Nights of Wine Home for the Holidays box: $129

WHAT YOU GET: 9 wine vials plus earn credits for full size bottles

This box is, for lack of better words, super cool. Unlike most subscription boxes that come in cardboard, Vinebox comes in a sleek, silky-matte box that opens from the top. Luxury from the beginning. Inside there are nine vials that are honestly bigger than I expected, coming in just taller than a wine glass with enough wine to fill it. The vials allow you to taste nine different delicious wines without committing to the full bottle, and it allows your friends to become jealous of your subscription. Plus, you can even gift the box to your mother-in-law who, admit it, you never know what to get. *21 and over!

Universal Yums

SUBSCRIPTION TYPE: Monthly

PRICE: Starting at $13.75 per box; Yum Box (6+ Snacks): $13.75 per box, Yum Yum Box (12+ Snacks): $22.92 per box, Super Yum Box (20+ Snacks): $35.75 per box

WHAT YOU GET: Popular foreign snacks curated from different countries

Universal Yums is hands-down universal fun. We tested out the Yum Yum box from Russia, and it did not disappoint. With snacks ranging from mushroom croutons (not my favorite, but interesting to try) to mouth-watering chocolate and surprisingly good kebab-flavored potato chips, we had a blast. The Yum Yum box and the Super Yum Box also comes with a 16 page booklet full of snack descriptions, recipes, and trivia all about the country of the month. They even include a scoreboard for you to keep track of which snacks you like.

UYUMS.COM

HelloFresh

SUBSCRIPTION TYPE: Weekly Flexible Plan

PRICE: Starting at $61 per box

WHAT YOU GET: Ingredients and recipes for weekly meals

These recipes are so delicious, I found myself wishing for leftovers! However, HelloFresh delivers exactly what you need for the recipes so you don’t need to waste any of the fresh ingredients. Each week, you log onto the website or app and hand-pick which meals you want from their large list of recipes. They offer plans for two or four people per meal, with a choice of two, three, four or five recipes per week. Plus, they even offer vegetarian, pescatarian, calorie smart, family friendly and quick meal options.

Gentleman’s Box

SUBSCRIPTION TYPE: Monthly or Quarterly

PRICE: $29 per monthly box; $100 per Premium Quarterly box

WHAT YOU GET: Monthly box: 4-6 apparel and lifestyle accessories; Quarterly box: 4-5 luxury goods catered to each season

Calling all the dapper fellows out there looking to spice up their wardrobe and life. While this box is catered toward those who identify as male, anyone can open this box and start drooling. The outdoor-themed, premium box we tested was full of full-size, luxury items and even included a large blanket and a hammock with a mosquito net! Jealous? If the premium is a little too pricey, they also offer a monthly box that comes with smaller (but just as classy) accessories such as ties, dress socks, grooming supplies… you know… gentlemanly things. This box is definitely making its way onto my holiday gifts shopping list.

In a nutshell:

I’ll admit it. I’m absolutely HOOKED on subscription boxes. I am already planning which boxes to send to my family and friends for holiday gifts. It’s one big present that is full of presents — who wouldn’t love that? And, of course, I am writing down the ones to add to my wish list. Heck, I might even treat myself. Products shipped to me each month? Knowing me, I will forget I signed up for them, it will show up in the mail and then it’s the ultimate gift from me to me. Yes, no matter what the price is, they can add up over the year (especially the more extravagant boxes). My verdict is: If you budget it, if you WANT it and if it will make you happy, hands down get it, dude. A happy you makes the world brighter, and at the rate this year is going, everyone deserves a little love.
