Winc<\/a>. It\u2019s easy for products to pile up when you\u2019re getting regular deliveries, and unused items–no matter what anyone says–do diminish the value you get for what you pay. Products don\u2019t do you or anyone else any good if they\u2019re just hidden away in a drawer or a closet. This is the argument against discovery-based subscriptions: What do you do with items you don\u2019t like? However, the answer is simple; especially if you do put a premium on the element of surprise when it comes to box contents. Either you use them anyway, or give them to someone else who will. Otherwise, the box won\u2019t be worth it.<\/p>\nA few final notes: Do check customer reviews! While they\u2019re not always unbiased, sometimes you will find out things that companies don\u2019t want you to know. Sometimes the temptation to pay for a long term subscription can be great because the monthly fee is usually a lot cheaper when you do so. What these services may not tell you upfront is that it can be difficult or impossible to cancel subscriptions, if you happen to change your mind halfway through. Another thing to keep in mind is to check the service\u2019s return and refund policy. Most will replace damaged goods, but some won\u2019t accept returns or refunds no matter what; so watch out for those.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
