29 – There Truly is a Subscription for Everything!

Not Without My Sister - A podcast by Beatrice Mac Cabe and Rosemary Mac Cabe

We're talking about subscription services – the ones we love, the ones we hate, and the many (many) services we have lukewarm feelings about, but subscribe to all the same.

A few of the services / people / things we mention include:Canva, https://www.canva.com/ an online design platform that allows you to make cute invitations / headers / graphicsFlodesk, https://flodesk.com/ a cute newsletter service that makes more beautiful newsletters than Mailchimp and is very (VERY) easy to use!Ipsy, http://ipsy.com/ a makeup subscription service that sends you five lil makeup bits each month (one of them WILL be an eyeshadow palette)Stitchfix, https://www.stitchfix.com/ an online personal shopper that sends you five items (allegedly) tailored to your tastes each month, with zero obligation to keep any of themSavage x Fenty, https://www.savagex.com/ which we mistakenly call Fenty by Rihanna for the duration of the episode because we are old ladies, a kind of underwear subscription service that offers pretty good savings on lacy lil bits if that's your vibe.
