Giving Up Sex For Cool Socks

Giving Up Sex For cool socks



You’ve been hearing about it, you’ve been seeing it on all your friends’ social media feeds—sock of the month clubs are popping up everywhere! But are they really worth the hype? Are they more than just a passing fad? Or are they simply just another subscription box service that will fade into obscurity? As someone who has been working in the sock business for years, I can tell you first-hand how amazing these subscription boxes are!



The Problem: I have no idea what cool socks I can buy

And let’s be honest. It’s easy to get lost when you go shopping for socks. There are a ton of socks out there and most of them are kind of dull (if you ask me). So if you decide to shop on your own, chances are that you’ll end up with yet another boring pair of socks in your drawer. The cute sock subscriptions I can think of have a monthly price that is roughly equal to what you would spend on two pairs of boring but decent socks at Target. But when it comes to cool socks, even 2 dollar per month equals too much money for me as I prefer wearing them until they're worn out than buying a new pair every month or so.

Pros of cool sock subscriptions

If you’re anything like me, your sock drawer is probably a hot mess. It’s not necessarily hard to match socks when they all sort of match, but it takes time and care to make sure that they are all organized and in good condition. A sock of the month club helps solve that problem by sending fresh pairs in new styles right to your door. Depending on how much variety you want and how many months you sign up for, you can get between one and eight pairs delivered each month—just enough to mix things up while keeping things together.



Cons of cool sock subscriptions

These subscription services generally have a monthly fee associated with them. The average sock of the month service costs about $20 a month. That’s about $240 per year for nothing but socks! So, in addition to cash, you are giving up sex. You could go out on a date once or twice and use that money to buy three or four pairs of cool socks and still be getting more bang for your buck! Also, some people don’t like being tied down to a single brand; they prefer having options and not just one pair of socks every month. But really, who would want that much sex? I suppose that happens... somewhere... somehow...



How To Cancel a Subscription?

Canceling your subscription to something that you don’t use anymore (and would rather not pay for) is one of those little chores that seems so simple it doesn’t need to be planned for, but can easily fall by the wayside in a busy day. If your sock drawer is full of old pairs and you’re feeling guilty about how much money you waste on socks and how much space they take up, cancel that sock-of-the-month club membership and stop buying socks.
