Alltrue

So here's the thing about Alltrue-it's basically the subscription box that came back from the dead. And that's not hyperbole.

If you're into conscious consumerism but don't want to spend hours researching every single product you buy, Alltrue kind of makes sense. They send you a quarterly box-four times a year-filled with sustainable, ethically-made stuff. Think vegan leather totes, eco-friendly kitchen gadgets, skincare from brands you've probably never heard of but that have impressive sustainability credentials. The whole pitch is that you're supporting artisans and small businesses while treating yourself to products that don't trash the planet.

The products themselves? They're a mixed bag, but in a good way. One box might have a hemp apron, a jade roller, and some artisan-made jewelry. Another could include reusable silicone food bags, shower steamers, and a hand-woven basket. It's the kind of stuff that feels thoughtful-like someone actually curated it rather than just throwing random items together. And each box comes with a little magazine that tells you about the makers and the impact your purchase is having, which is a nice touch if you're into that sort of thing.

The membership also gets you access to seasonal "Add-On Markets" where you can buy more sustainable products at supposedly steep discounts-up to 70% off. Plus there's an Essentials Shop that's always open for members. So it's more than just the quarterly box.

The pricing is straightforward: $79.95 per quarter if you go seasonal, or $69.95 per box if you commit to an annual subscription. Shipping is free in the contiguous US, but you'll pay $7.95 if you're in Hawaii, Alaska, Canada, or US territories.
