There are a number of companies that offer products shipped to your door. While this isn’t very different from what Amazon has been doing for years, the one thing that is different is the packaging. Instead of getting a typical cardboard shipping box, you get something that looks more like a fancy care package. Some of these are marketed as ‘gift of the month‘ clubs that send you beer, cheese, wine, or other delicacies.
Here are a few examples:
