Shopping rewards app Ribitt has decided to launch a delivery service in an effort to support the many small businesses throughout Toronto that are struggling financially during the pandemic.
Through Ribett's new delivery service, consumers can choose between two different gift boxes that will feature a curation of goods from local businesses, both of which include useful items that consumers can use while social distancing. One version of The Happy Box, dubbed the Comfort & Essentials Box, includes cozy socks, vitamins, and other small comforts, while the other box, called Bored at Home, includes a variety of entertainment options, such as board games and DIY challenges.
The boxes are currently available for order online, and support over 200 local shops throughout the city.
