Let subscribers pick their preferred categories and allow them to choose the amount of money they want to pay each month + shipping costs,
then you go out and buy random things from one or more of those categories (in order of user preference), and keep a record of which items you sent to each customer, to avoid duplicates.
Social fluff: Let users post on-site reviews of the items they receive from you.
Ideal outcome: People discover the uniqueness of Japan, share it with their friends and other users, and you help spread some joy and pocket the change.
