Birchbox - $150 (since Aug 2011)
MyGlam/Ipsy - $30 (got Jan/Feb/March and cancelled - Didn't hate it but it just wasn't for me)
Glossybox - $126 (Since June 2012)
Blossom of the Month Club (Belle Blossoms) - $24.98 (Since October 2012/$12.48 a month -- This is a hair accessory subscription)
= $330.98
I will say though, Birchbox and Glossybox did introduce me to some awesome brands I wouldn't have tried on my own, i.e. Vasanti (BB), Carol's Daughter (GB), Shea Terra Organics (GB) and Jouer (BB). I also got some awesome F/S or deluxe-sized products like the Ellis Faas or the Illamasqua nail polish, or the Tarte LipSurgence from the GossipGirl Birchbox. It's definitely a gamble... and seeing that amount on "paper" makes me almost go "WTF?" but then you gotta think of it this way: You (I) spent $150 on Birchbox over the course of 15 months. Sure, you could rather go to Sephora and spend that money on whatever YOU want... but can you afford to just blow $150 in one day? Nope, can't. $10, sure, but that would be a very fast trip to Sephora. I also love BB's point system and placed 3 orders over the course of time buying products solely off of my review points and - if it was available - a promo code. I got a bunch of cool stuff for either nothing or next to nothing! And I only had one referral, so it was all review points, as I said. In retrospect, I guess my "problem" (not really the right word) was that they mostly sent things that were within my budget and I could go out and buy on my own. For me the point of a sub service is still to discover new things. Don't get me wrong, I love getting f/s products from my favorite brands but it just wasn't for me... eh.
I guess if money was tight and I couldn't afford such luxuries I would cancel Glossybox immediately, and maybe consider keeping the other two. I love hair flowers so I'd definitely keep that one at least, haha. For now, I'm keeping all 3
