I by mistake ordered two cards in my box of hugs and they noticed and automatically refunded one for me without me even asking. My friend was very happy with her box of hugs. Would definitely recommend.

My daughter loved her box of hugs

My daughter loved her box of hugs, the products are so cute. The only disappointment was the delivery. I thought it would have got to her some as I had paid extra money for it to be delivered faster. I am in Australia though so maybe the time difference mucked that up?

Perfect way to say “thinking of you”:

I have both received and gifted “hugs”; a great way of sending a personalised “thinking of you” message when you can’t deliver an IRL hug. Fab selection of quality gifts to pick from, beautifully packaged and delivered on time.
