Box Budget Breakdown – February 2016

Welcome to Box Budget Breakdown.

I am Mailbox Junkie, a box addict.

Is there anyone reading Box Budget here for the 1st time? We welcome you.

This series post details the budgets of 2 boxistas.

You are probably shocked at how many beauty boxes I got this month! You are probably thinking that I must be radiant from head to toe with all this stuff! Well, sort of….. I won’t be going out for Mrs Hawaii anytime soon (Even though I would kill the talent portion of the show with my stand up routine).

Like any good addict, I have awesome justifications which are as follows:

(1) I have absolutely loved everything I have gotten from Beauty Heros and Boxwalla so those are not going anywhere.

(2) I look to Yuzen and Good Being to expose me to new brands and also to increase my stash of small items to gift.

(3) BB I can’t let go because of the point system.

(4) PSMH was a gift

(5) I am canceling Aster Market

(6) Hamptons Lane I put under our food budget!!!!!!!! hahahaha

OnderriaBBBAlright, share your budgets and justifications below!!!!!!!

    I love that you put hl under the food budget. I was thinking of doing that with gluten free food boxes I’m thinking of getting when I will have room in my budget for in a month or so.
    February I purchased zero subscription boxes. And it was hard not to.

      Yes, I love your horse box reviews. Mostly because I love seeing the pics of the farm life

    Another beauty box you might want to check out is pearlesque. It is a little bit of an investment but the value you get in return is amazing. I saw a review for April’s box already. It is still available for purchase till April 4 or 5.

      I know I was really behind for some reason on this. Maybe because denial just ain’t a river in Egypt?

    Brave women, tallying up your spending. I stopped doing that long ago. I don’t need my calculator judging me!
