The subscription box market has boomed in the last couple of years and shows no signs of slowing anytime soon. In fact, it has been reported that the UK subscription market is forecast to grow by 72% by 2022. Subscription boxes are packages full of goodies that are delivered to your door on a regular basis and they cover everything from beauty and food to toiletries. They are a hot new trend with plenty available for primary school children and make for the perfect pocket money treat or birthday gift. Just think how excited little ones will be when they come home from school to see that a parcel has been delivered especially for them and is packed full of their favourite things! Plus, many of them can be ordered as a one-off if you don’t want to commit to a regular monthly subscription. Here’s our pick of the best.
