Can’t Think of a Gift? Try Giving Someone Unclaimed Mail!

You know that one person on your gift list who’s impossible to shop for? The one who either has everything or hits you with the classic, “Surprise me!” Well, I’ve found the perfect solution—and it’s as weird as it is hilarious: unclaimed mail mystery boxes!

Here’s how it works: Companies are selling boxes filled with random undeliverable or unclaimed packages. You pick a size—prices range from about $40 to about $200—and then the fun begins when you open it. Think of it as the ultimate White Elephant gift, except you and the recipient have no idea what you’re gifting.

People have reported getting everything from knock-off designer bags to a human-size Bowser suit. One mystery box even included a blanket featuring photos of a random family with the message, “Happy Mother’s Day, Tiffy.” That’s now a favorite for someone’s niece, who thinks it’s hilarious.

But beware: not all surprises are family-friendly. One person gifted a mystery box to their boss and ended up with lingerie and some, let’s say, "naughty toys." Talk about an awkward situation!

These boxes can include overstocked items, cancelled orders, or even customer returns, so it’s a total gamble. Some companies guarantee a certain value, but others make no promises—just the thrill of the unknown.

If you’re intrigued, companies like FunDelivered.com offer these mystery boxes. But be warned—they’re so popular they’re often out of stock. You can also Google a few other companies that do the same thing or something similar.

So, if you’re looking to add some excitement (or chaos) to your gift-giving this year, a box of unclaimed mail might be just the ticket.!
