I've said this before, but a twice-monthly subscription to sweets is too much sugar. If it was once every 3 months then I'd consider subscribing.


Good idea, could be worth trying to let people select different frequencies, which practically would mean just skipping the packages in between.


Or: let people rate the candy. Then send the ones people love most. I.e., a "best of Japanese candy" package.

By the way, when you've discovered candy that you like a lot, how do you order more of it?


You'd cancel the subscription and order the favorite candy from amazon :(.

My friend received a selection of wine each month from the local store. After a while his tastes narrowed to a specific grape. Cancelled his subscription and now he goes directly to the store to get those wines. Candy Japan needs to work on retention.


Exactly, this is why I unsubscribed despite the candy selection being awesome - we just don't eat that much candy!
