In my country you can get a box thats full of food and recipes for like 35 bucks a week.. In case you're a lazy bastard who doesn't want to get groceries and decide for themselves what they want to eat.

These dumb crates are gambling for idiots who don't even want the chance at something worthwhile. Sure Casinos and the lottery are essentially a scam, but some times you win actual money rather than a pile of worthless garbage.

A t-shirt that has Mario dressed as Batman on it or maybe Batman dressed as Mario. Something that all pop-culture aficionados can enjoy, even women.

In case you're a lazy bastard who doesn't want to get groceries and decide for themselves what they want to eat. There are several competing grocery boxes (just googled it: 16 competing grocery boxes). And they will also unload things that are in season and cheap on you.

Just subscribe to your local fresh produce basket instead of having the usual industrial garbage shipped to your door if you want surprise food.

abigserve posted:Calling it here: steam is gonna offer a monthly subscription where you get a bunch of random games once a month at a heavy discount, and the "rarity" of the item will equate to how big the discount is. why would they go with a monthly subscription? its an online service, they dont need to shop any logistics! if they are going to do this they should go full Magic Cards. Steam should just offer a "mystery bundle" that gives you a random bunch of games (that you dont own) at heavy discount levels. you would be guaranteed 8 indy games (commons), 3 classic AAA games (Uncommons), and one modern game (rare). some time you would get a mythic rare or a foil, this is a game that has all DLC unlocked  it would be like gambling! i guarantee they would make billions doing this. most people just buy game on sale and never play them anyway. This way you can get people to buy "on sale" games constantly

There's already a service called IndiBox. They send you a physical copy of a lovely pixel platformer and its bleep-bloop OST along with a steam key, and some tat tangentially related to the game.

IIRC there is one 200+ dollar box sent out in every lootcrate, but I imagine the mark up is.terrible, so you couldn't make any money off of it. Also 15 a month for a one in a million shot at 200 is an extremely inefficient form of gambling!

Seems he hasn't opened it yet--he thinks the wooden box is too cool to pry open. I'm still laughing, but pleased that he is thrilled with his box!

Sapporo Ichiban is, no joke, good poo poo for instant ramen. Shio and tonkotsu flavors are amazing. Still not worth $50 though of course.

Because you are a terrible tech nerd and need your hand held or you die. I knew a guy like that. Programmer. He moved out and within a week tried to fish toast out with a fork, had to learn how to wash clothes and could, and I am not joking, barely make a sandwich. Those sorts need their hands held lest they go to a grocery store and buy nothing but liquor and olives.

My brother got me a loot crate subscription last Christmas, cause he's a lazy gently caress. He brought the first one to our family gift exchange. I will never forget the look of shame that washed over my grandmother as I, her 30 year old grandson, opened an entire box of wonder woman toys.

Eh, if it wasn't for my mom giving my brother things to slap my name on, I would not be surprised if this happened to me one year.

Yeah, if you're located in the American West, you need to get on Bountiful Baskets 15 bucks gets you about 15lbs of fresh fruits and vegetables. When my wife and I used it we ate better than we did any time before or since, and our grocery bill fell by about a third. When you've got a fridge full of food you eat out less too. Can't recommend it enough.

Please fund my new idea "RandomCrate", each month will get you something actually cool like a new TV but only 1 person each month will actually receive the crate, everyone else gets a consolation prize (jar of piss)

Sa-crate, every month you receive an account voucher with add-ons included. It can also come with a monthly theme, this would include posting ideas, and ideas for gimmick accounts. All for the low price of 20$ a month! (Shipping not included.) Perfect for the schizophrenic on the go!

Things to put in a Gamer Crate: 1. Trio of sample-sized "Extreme" Gamer Fragrances. Experience the intense scents of flavors like "Tacky Balls and Grundle", "Rockfish Vagina" and "Classic Anus". 2. "Pocket Guide: Is it child porn or just anime?" How to talk to the cops about your second hard drive. Bulletproof excuses like "It's legal in Japan", "Shes actually a 3000 year old demon trapped in a 12 year old's body", "Pubic hair is unsanitary", and "I was just being edgy". Know your rights! 3. "Dignified Brand" antifungal crème and personal lubricant. Why take the time to pleasure yourself AND treat your neck fungus separately when you can do both in one sitting? Can you really put a price on dignity?
