pact are p good imo /:

♛ LIL UNIT ♛ (thomp), Monday, 9 February 2015 01:17 (nine years ago) link

things i have been guilty of, from least to most justifiable:

joggbox (energy gels and protein-addled flapjacks and shit; i don't even know why i did this)
hellofresh (does your groceries for you. boring-ass bland food; new starter offer only)
graze ('healthy' snack boxes. deeply addictive; multiple new starter offers by changing the position of the dot in my gmail account)
beer52 (unremarkable collection of 'craft' beers plus some actually nice seeming spirits, maybe; terrible customer service; just got a second box because the 'unsubscribe' link is broken)
envelope (total rip off of below by founders of above; they keep offering me free/reduced shit though so ???)
pact (better than any coffee i have bought in person for a comparable price. really annoying post-innocent smoothie aesthetic though yes; still use this, on occasion)

the weeaboo box seems like the saddest one, i think

I liked the idea of buying someone/being bought a cocktail-of-the-month kit for Christmas until I realised that each month's delivery of 2 miniatures and a tiny bottle of mixer or bitters cost as much as buying a full-sized bottle of semi-decent brand name spirits every month

most of these pics look pretty terrible but I do still kind of like the concept, remembering that joy as a kid of getting post and not knowing what it was or being excited about receiving some plastic crap that cost 6 cereal packets and £1.95 p&p. but I'm not sure that joy actually exists as an adult - at least not for more than two months in a row, or when not subsidised by your parents' cereal expenditure

We use Pact and also Has Bean for regular coffee, it's worth it to have reliably excellent coffee without having to remember to pick it up. Overall, I've liked the Has Bean coffee more than I have the Pact; what Pact has which I think is really good is the easy ability to put your subscription on pause if you want.

Buying a subscription to this lot: http://cocoarunners.com/ (fancy chocolate) was one of the most successful birthday gifts I've ever given my wife, with the advantage that it's another little birthday gift once a month. Plus it's cut down my overall chocolate consumption because it makes me less inclined to grab a Double Decker or whatever when I'm out and about.

I'm imagining a #spdr service where they promise to mail you three exotic tarantulas every month (and send back the ones you don't want) but when you open the package there's nothing inside but three dried-up daddy long-legs and a flyer that says 'KEEP 'EM'

You may receive jewelry like necklaces, bracelets, rings or earrings. You might receive a shirt or a scarf or a meowvalous pair of socks. You might be some cattastic items to decorate your home, some purrfect pieces to hang on your wall or even a thing or two to deck out your kitchen. Maybe it's your new favorite coffee mug or your next best wine glass. Maybe it's office accessories! Maybe it's a book! Maybe... maybe it's something we haven't even thought of yet!

look it's a new business model, bear with us goddammit

"Maybe it's office accessories" in the cat lady box is really slaying me for some reason

What in the heck are these things?
Flexi postcards are postcards with grooves stamped into them, that can be played on a turntable! The playable side is a full color image curated by that month’s musician.

How many subscriptions are available?
475! Once they’re gone they’re gone so subscribe early!

Sounds cool but how’s the sound quality?
It’s exactly what you’d expect from playing a cardboard postcard on your turntable. It’s gritty but playable. There is a download code printed on every card so you can have a higher quality version of each song in your library.
