Surprise packs and [blind bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/montana-west), as well as the unboxing experience as popularized on [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pucker-up-sour-mystery-box-x-joely-live), has inspired the creation of a range of products in mystery boxes. For Mother's Day this year, [Firebox](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flavored-marmelade) is sharing a mystery box that contains more than £50 for "maverick misfit mums."

As it can be a challenge for people to settle on a suitable Mother's Day gift and often resort to buying bunches of flowers or gift cards as last-minute gifts, the Mother's Day Mystery Box offers a fun way to surprise both the gift-giver and the recipient with something entirely new.

While the contents of the Mother's Day Mystery Box truly remain a mystery, Firebox does note that the boxes are pre-picked and the items inside all of the boxes are the same.
