1Up Box Review: March 2015

Clearly, geek subscription boxes are a favorite around here! 1Up Box is the cheapest of the bunch and lots of people really love it. For the price, it's definitely better than Loot Crate, although I still feel like I would prefer to pay more for something like My Geeky Goodies. This one is under $20, but honestly, for me, it kind of feels like it. With that said, these things add up and if you wanted a smaller box that consistently has good themes and a few cute items, this is probably the way to go. If you're a hardcore nerd and want a bit more, though, you may find yourself disappointed (again, you at least get a shirt with 1Up Box; I haven't seen any consistency from some of the bigger boxes). 

This month's theme was Villains and there was a poster of corrupted Link. This is a nice poster, although a bit small. It would be really nice if we had offices, but it can likely go somewhere in our nerd room instead. 

1Up Box Review: February 2015

Since I've been so disappointed with Voldemort of geek subscription boxes, I've been listening to others' feedback to see which subscription I should try next. I had several recommendations for 1Up Box, and it's far and away the cheapest, so I decided why not.

Sadly, I admit I didn't really like this box very much, but for the price, I will give it another month or two. I get a lot of the geeky boxes and this one just doesn't do anything special for me. They're really new, though, so we will see. They didn't do anything wrong; it just wasn't enough to excite me.
