College Care Package Ideas

College care packages are a fun way to show your friend/child that your thinking of them. It’s easy to lose touch with someone who’s not in your day to day life. No need to let that become an exuse.

Off to College Care Package

Whether the care package is for your son, daughter, or a friend; get something you know they’ll like. Having a hard time finding that special something? Think back, what was the last gift they gave you? Or, what do they usually gift? 

Was it a book? A piece of art? A gift card to a fun store? Clothes? Usually, people gift things they enjoy. If you can give something they gift, then you’re on the right track. 

If this isn’t helpful, then stick with what you like. What’s the last product or service purchase you made that you really enjoy? If you like it, then it’s likely someone else will too.

If you’re still stuck, a great gift that never fails is free time. Laundry or cleaning services, like Laundry Butler for You are a great option; and take one thing off busy student’s to-do lists. Providing laundry pick up and delivery, weekly or by request; subscriber’s clothes come back clean and ready to be placed in drawers or hung in their closets. Best part? They’ll have more time for meeting people and learning. Follow this link and type in their zip code to see if the service delivers to their location.
