monthly subscription gift ideas

[Char22thom]

This year I am hoping to avoid the shops as much as possible and am thinking subscription gifts for parents and dh as usually go for experiences but its always a nightmare for everyone to organise time etc to go so want to avoid those this year. Can anyone suggest some good subscription ideas? X

Coffee. We get a bag of coffee delivered every week and it's amazing. I'm going to get by for a friend's wedding present.

The spicery are good if they like cooking.

I love the Hotel Chocolat one

Ooo I love a subscription box. Ages? Interests?

Shameless bump to see your ideas!
Lean Christmas this year so love this!

My favourites:

Taffy mail American sweets subscription
hyggebox lifestyle
treatbox lifestyle (and my absolute fave! Well priced)
buddy box self care box designed for those who have suffered from depression and just need some love. Part of the cost goes to the charity too
scentcircus wax melts
just us date night box. Although the website and Instagram hasn't been updated in a while so not sure what is going on there
fairyloot young adult fantasy box
small print books book subscription for young children

THIS website lists mosts the subscription boxes available

Grazebox is nice and there are usually offers around to get your 1st, 5th and 10th boxes free

We were brought a few experience gifts from buy a gift last year and was so nice to use through the year, like meal vouchers and family days out and I have started buying same for friends and family

Have you thought about magazine subscriptions as well? I got my DN one for Amazing magazine which he loves. Parents appreciated a Which? Subscription. I think you can now get monthly cheese subscriptions too?

I got my mum a bloomon subscription for her birthday and she loves it!

Last Christmas I did bakedin for my daughter for her to have at uni. Stopped when she came home for the summer but it was very good. And for my partners granddaughter (5) I did the toucan box. Still doing it now and she absolutely loves it.

Readly app which gives you access to lots of magazines on your tablet

I've bought Glamour for several friends, which is always really well received.

I bought Hello for DM, it's her guilty pleasure.

DH adored coffee and bacon subscriptions last year, plus a shaving supplies one went down very well.

Aquila magazine for children and Beauty Pie for adults.

book and a brew as it says - a book and tea bags

hook and a book a book and crochet supplies/patten based on the book.

lucky dip club socks and pin badges

I gave DM a subscription to Bloom and Wild flowers a coyolenof years ago - fresh flowers delivered by post every month. She likecit so much, she asked for it again, and the flowers were always fabulous.

Thanks for your ideas and suggestions, have almost planned everyone's presents now! Will spread cost of some by direct debit over the year which will help too! Found this whilst searching, it maybe helpful to some else too www.ayearssupplyof.co.uk/

Instead of individual magazine subscriptions check out Readly. It really is fab.

It's about £7 a month and you can set up five devices with magazines. My dad subscribed and added my mum, me and my siblings - bargain for the price and each person gets their own 'sub account' do it remembers your preferences and what you were reading. Saved £££s on buying magazines! They've got a great selection, too - all the BBC ones and LOADS more. There's definitely something for everyone.

hey everyone. Not sure if you're still interested, but I put together an updated list of subscription boxes.

Truth be told - I already have a few of them earmarked as Christmas presents this year.

My dd would love a Bakedin subscription... will keep an eye out for a good offer...

Love the idea of subscription gifts and some really lovely ideas here. Just wondering if anyone knows of something very similar to the Baked In subscription but aimed at children? My 7yo daughter loves baking and would love something like this but still has very simple tastes so might be a bit disappointed to make something a bit spicy or overly nutty that she wouldn’t actually enjoy eating! Is there something like this specifically for children that someone could recommend?
