The Best Subscription Gifts To Give This Holiday Season

Why give a one-time gift when you can give a gift that keeps on giving month after month? If you’re tired of the same old candles and t-shirts, switch things up this holiday season with some of the best subscription gifts for Christmas.

These days, there are subscriptions for almost everything from wine, coffee and food to pets, clothes and shaving. You can pay a lump sum or a monthly fee to have new, exciting deliveries with some of your favorite kinds of items that come directly to your door. It gives you something to look forward to and an opportunity to explore within areas that you’re interested in or stay up to date on the necessities. The best part is, subscription gifts are the kind you can buy right from the comfort of your couch.

Whether the recipient lets their subscription end after the gift expires or loves it so much they continue to pay for it on their own, there’s surely a subscription gift out there that anyone in your life will love and appreciate. Check out some of our favorites below.

  

1. Hunt A Killer

FOR CRIME JUNKIES

Got a friend or family member who’s obsessed with true crime? The podcasts and documentaries they love may be free, but those don’t let them participate in the crime-solving process. A Hunt A Killer subscription allows them to experience being a detective solving a murder mystery. You can choose and pay for a six-month (single season) or 12-month (double season) subscription, and an email will be sent to the recipient to claim at no cost to them.

2. Book of the Month

FOR THE BOOKWORM

If you know someone who blows through books in a matter of days, a Book of the Month subscription is the perfect gift. You can choose a three, six or 12-month subscription, and they’ll get five books each of those months. Since they’ll probably love it, they can renew the subscription for as long as they want to keep reading more for less.

3. Say It With A Sock

FOR THOSE WITH COLD FEET

Socks are a necessity. Since we wear them every day, they tend to wear out quickly. You can prepay for a six-month subscription to gift a loved one with one super fun pair per month. They can change the style at any time to make sure they love each and every pair, all of which are reinforced with double knitting at the heel and toe to survive everyday wear. Their feet will be warmer and more stylish than ever.
