I mean, I understand what they intended us to use it for. What I really use it for though is to hold my sponges at the sink! It works really well, and gives me a smile when I'm doing dishes, which is nice since I hate doing dishes!

My favorite odd item in a subscription box was from the Star Wars Bounty Hunters boxes. It was a Star Wars luggage tag. I was easily able to identify my black Samsonite luggage in the carousel lol

My favorite box is still the MCC Ant-Man box. The pop is still one of my favorites. The YEAR ONE box was cool too, but I just liked the Ant-Man Dorbz that was in it.

Just in case the length of survival time for a taco wasn't enough of an argument here - these only really work with hard shell tacos! That was never going to happen! lol

One of my favorite odd item or in this case items was the Guardians of the Galaxy box that had a ornament set with Rocket/Groot and the scarf of the gang. :freddy3:

Not really an odd item, but one of my faves.... an old sub box... hmmm... loot crate I think.
It came with my very first mystery mini figure.... Captain Malcolm Reynolds from Serenity.
Hated the blank white eyes, so the first thing I did was draw pupils on him. lol
He still sits on my desk to this very day.

I have a zombie gambit pin from the marvel zombie box and I love that thing. The random stuff that comes in the boxes is usually my favorite part.
