Below are some great options you should sign up for. Your day will thank you for it.

Love the sight and smell of a fresh bouquet of flowers in your living room? Treat yourself and give Ask A French’s Surprise Bouquet a go. Simply pick from options such as ‘Pastel’ and ‘Tropical’ or select ‘Surprise’ to leave it completely up to the florists’ imagination. No two arrangements are identical, so you can rest assured that each monthly delivery of blooms is unique. Your home will never look or smell the same again.

5. Book Box from BooksActually

 

 

Any bookworm worth their salt has been to the immensely popular Books Actually at Yong Siak Street at least once, if not far too many times to count. Beyond romantic poetry books, under-the-radar local works and titles giving off major hipster vibes, the store also offers Book Box – a book subscription service that delivers potential great reads to you. From themes such as ‘Food’, ‘Singapore Literature’ and Travel, to a special edition box (selections are made by the bookstore’s resident cats!), readers will be spoilt for choice. So fun.

Damage: Book Boxes from S$59.
