How to Ditch Overconsumption And Gift Thoughtfully

When it comes to gifting, Good Store knows how to do it with care. | By Kelly McGilvery

Stumped for a great gift for a friend? Want to make sure your spending aligns with your values? Try some of these great options from the Good Store to tick all your boxes. 

Gift Them A Ritual

Have a friend who’s adrift in the world without a tether or ballast? Give them a ritual to shore up their mornings. Try a membership to the Keats & Co Tea Taster Club! Each month, they’ll get a brand new bag of tea to taste. The first bag of tea comes with a free Dot-branded tea strainer - she’ll help your friend greet each new day as they wait for tea to steep. Teas included in the subscription range from our Blue Fields Earl Grey to Moonlit Mint to Evensong Chai. For friends on the go, consider a Keats & Co Minimalist Travel Mug to keep their tea warm as they traverse the roads to work and play.

Elevate Their Chores

Your minimalist friend who wants to treat Earth better while keeping their home running smoothly could benefit from EcoGeek's cleaning products. They’ll adore the set-it-and-forget-it charm of the Sheets Laundry Club Eco-Friendly Laundry Detergent Sheets and Eco-Friendly Dryer Sheets. For quick and easy treatment of laundry stains, the Eco-Friendly Stain Remover from Meliora Cleaning Products uses a wet and swipe application that won’t complicate their process. 

Appeal To Their Senses

The beautiful colors and scents of Sun Basin Soap bring a variety of moods to the bath. Merge the treat yourself approach of Sun Basin Soap with the decadent experience of Keats & Co Teas, with a subscription to the Tea & Soap Club - Loose Leaf Tea and Bar Soap. A sampling of colors, scents and tastes await with each new month as one new blend of tea and one new bar of soap make their way to your friend’s mailbox. The mail never smelled so good!

Add Creativity and Fun To Their Staples

For your friend whose life seems a little humdrum and could use a little color and excitement, perhaps an upgrade to their wardrobe basics is in order. Liven up the bureau drawers: try an Awesome Socks Club - Monthly Subscription for a curated line of colorful, quirky socks that will add character to their everyday experience. Or for a secret upgrade that no one will expect, try an Awesome Undies Club - Monthly Underwear Subscription for another opportunity for artist-designed basics to add some self-expression under their wardrobe.
