For Lovers Only: Stay In With Date Mail
What It Is: ‘Date night’ is more and more of a formal thing in the world around me – as many of my friends have had (or are having) children, they’ve recognized the importance of spending some quality time with their one true love. Conversely, some couples sans children or those with active social lives are simply looking to reserve some lovin’ together. In which case, might I suggest Date Mail, a new Canadian subscription box out of Newfoundland designed to making staying in ultra enjoyable. The contents of each box are designed to make your special night together extra fun, with a ‘Play Date’ playlist, snacks and a recipe for some stomach lovin’, some sensual and fun items that’ll get you geared up for some potential after hours fun, and a monthly theme to guide the entire experience. It’s a sweet idea whether you’re looking to amp up your own relationship or shopping for a loving couple that could use a little date night inspo.
Who It’s For: The newlyweds. The longtime lovers as an anniversary gift. Your spouse, as a ‘just for you’ Christmas or Valentine’s pick.
What It Costs: $50 a month, or pay for a six-month subscription to get one month free! You can also nab some one-time special edition boxes for $40 – $75.
Where It’s At: Subscribe to Date Mail online here.

As I am single, I wouldn’t try Date Mail, however, I know my son and his wife would likely enjoy it.
Such a neat idea. I’d love it for my hubby and me for this Christmas as hardly any family members will be around this year.
It’s an interesting concept; my husband and I could certainly use some refreshing date night ideas!

I’m always up for new ideas to enhance my relationship.
Kids are out of the house now and we’re trying to get out more often

I think it would fun to share with my husband.
Being a 51 yr old active employed woman with an equally active employed partner we have little energy for going out but still need quality time together
Sounds like a very interesting idea, great way for a couple to rekindle their relationship.
This sounds like a fun way to keep things interesting, especially as it’s sometimes hard to come up with something new and have to do all the planning ourselves. This would help!
Inspiration is always welcome!

This is fun! My husband and I have commited to one date night a month and it has been a great way to reconnect. It’s almost been a year and I am really happy that we are doing this. This little box would only add to the experience I’m sure! I followed on IG and tagged @foreverjune76 I am a subscriber to the canadian gift guide.

I would love to try date mail because I am tired of doing the same old thing with hubby.
We live in a very small town and our idea of date night is generally making a trip to the dump! Something like this would be great for inspiration and to spice things up.
That would be fun and relaxing! I’m a subscriber.
