Subscription Gifts

I love a gift that keeps on giving, so today I’m sharing the best subscription gifts for everyone on your list.Your sister, boyfriend, aunt, puppy nephew… I’ve got you covered.

For Both:  Birchbox – One of the original subscription products, Birchbox delivers beauty items for women or grooming items for men on a monthly basis. Blue Apron – Meal deliveries with a twist. They deliver all of the ingredients you need for a meal, and you cook it yourself using their detailed instructions and recipe. I had this delivered to my house, and I really enjoyed it! It’s a great way for someone who doesn’t know how to cook to learn some basics, or for someone who cooks a lot to learn a new recipe.

Make Their Tails Wag:  BarkBox – A box of doggie goodness shows up each month, with new treats and toys for your pup to enjoy. (Sprout loves his so much that he gets excited when I open the box each month! It’s like he’s knows it’s for him.) Plus, if you order through this link, a box will be sent to a shelter pup for each purchase made. Sharing the love at Christmastime is what it’s all about!  PetBox – For a dog or cat, a monthly subscription of items for your favorite pet. It’s similar to BarkBox, but obviously carries different items. While I used BarkBox personally, it’s all about preference! (And PetBox carries cat items, too.)

For Her:  Stitch Fix – This service sends fashion goodies to your doorstep each month (or when you request them), pulling information from your style profile. I’ve heard mixed reviews, but the people who love it love it, and I plan to try it myself at some point. Julep Maven –  A beauty box of products each month arrives at her door. (Or you can shop for specific items on the Julep site, and purchase essentials like nail polish, cuticle oil or cute emery boards.) CandiGirlBox – Made especially for girls ages 5-12, so they can join in on the fun, too!
For Him:  Trunk Club – The men’s equivalent of Stitch Fix delivers him fashionable items to add to his closet based on his current style. (My sister has had really good luck with Trunk Club!)  Sock Club – A monthly delivery of really cool socks to the man of your choice (and they’re all American-made, which I love!).
