How to Host a Boo Box Swap with Friends (AKA Trick-or-Treating for Moms)
A cozy, no-pressure excuse to wear black lipstick and drink cider
Halloween isn’t just for the kids. Enter: the Boo Box Swap. It’s like Secret Santa’s moody, fall-loving cousin. Get a group of 4–8 friends, make small boo boxes ($10 limit, max vibes), and swap over cider and spooky snacks.
How it works:
Each person makes 1–3 boo boxes with small themed goodies
Everyone draws numbers and picks a box (or swap White Elephant style!)
No one leaves without a treat, a laugh, and a sugar high
What to include:
Trader Joe’s seasonal finds
Cozy socks
Handmade bath salts
Pumpkin face masks
Edgy candy or candles
