Robb Vices has the fanciest subscription box we’ve ever seen

TwitterFacebook

Did seeing pictures from The Royal Wedding have you feeling like a damn peasant? Because same.

If you’re trying to be treated like royalty too, up your fancy game big time with a Robb Vices luxury subscription box to give you a monthly dose of that good life. 

If you’re wondering what we mean by “fancy,” just think about that video of Nick Offerman (AKA Ron Swanson) drinking whiskey by a fireplace. The monthly box from Robb Vices is basically that in subscription box form.

We’re talking top shelf alcohol, luxury kitchenware, cigars, leather accessories, artisan food samples, and more — one month’s box had a literal record player and a record. The creators (from Robb Report magazine) refer to these curated items as “vices,” picked especially for you to have a unique experience for whatever type of connoisseur you are. Read more…

If you’ve been feeling stressed lately, you’ve got plenty of company.

Of course, some stress is absolutely normal, perhaps even vital. But living with prolonged stress can be psychologically and mentally debilitating. Now, we aren’t doctors here — if you’re very concerned about your stress levels, we recommend seeking medical help. But if you’re dealing with lower levels of stress, there are some handy ways to manage it.  Read more…
