I used to get Kona Kase because I didn't know what kind of healthy snacks to buy when I first started running a lot. About half of what they sent was weird and gross.

I don't think you know what gambling means.

They don't hide a diamond in one out of every ten thousand boxes. You're not going to win anything. They just give you a box of garbage. Always. They take your money and give you a box of cheap garbage. You just don't know what kind of cheap garbage it is before you open it.
IIRC they give out one box a month that's worth a lot more money.

Lol if you gamble 15 a month for a one in a million shot at 200 though!

Fifteen bucks a month for more clutter delivered to your house. All "collectable" too so you feel obligated to hoard it.

USPS is pretty drat awesome. Only issue I've had is that they were supposed to overnight something and deliver it by 10:30 am the next day but it didn't get there overnight,it did get there,so they gave me my money back. So it got shipped for free.

loot crate was only the beginning. there are millions of these dumb monthly boxes now. I like watching the battlebox opening video personally:

These videos are no where near as fun when the guy genuinely/pretends to like the objects for referral money. This thing is the biggest load of crap I've ever seen, but whoever realised they could resell army surplus stuff to nerds with a huge markup is kind of a genius.

I have a subscription to the dollar shave club, and have had all sorts of trouble getting them delivered lately. After having delivered them no problem for a year and a half, they left a "sorry we missed you" card (even though I was home, they never knocked). The card claimed that it was sent insured mail and I had to sign for it or pick it up. I contacted dollar shave club and they said they don't send anything insured.

I filled out the card saying to bring it back, but they never took the card. Finally I saw the mail lady so I have her the card. It still didn't come so a few days later i saw her again and asked about it. She laughed and said "those cards don't matter, you need to pick it up". I said, "how, you took it?" and she laughed again and said I would never get it.

I emailed the past office website and said that happened, and the next day a guy from the office drive his personal car over with my package. The next 3 months I didn't get my razors, even though they were sent. I didn't notice because I had plenty of backup blades. Month 4 I come home and all 4 boxes are crammed into my box, all postdated when they should have been sent.

Is Dollar Shave actually worth it because their advertisements are correct and I am, in fact, very tired of paying out the rear end for blades

The once a month razor services are dumb. Just buy a years worth from dorco at a time. At least one of the razor services use rebranded dorco blades anyway.

just imagine this scenario

years and years of lootcrate, and the lootcratee dies with all that horded junk. Who handles the estate?

e: this hypothetical scenario would not work as he would have no lineage, I just realized this.
