About The Wee Box
The Wee Box is includes 5 items worth about 50 Euros exclusive to Scotland. Additionally, the Wee Box company gives back to charities and supports Scotland brands.
Each month, Wee Box subscribers receive a themed box full of Scotland goodies. This month’s theme was “Coorie In” or the idea of cuddling inside.
“Coorie,” according to Country Living means to snuggle or cuddle indoors after embracing the outdoors. It’s about balance and the cozy side of balancing. Listen. I have not been to Scotland yet but it is on my list and I cannot WAIT to go.
Anyone else an Outlander fan?

With the thought of the Wee Box bringing Scotland goods home, I thought sign. me. up.
As an everyday adventurer, doing new things is an adventure. Trying new things is an adventure. Even if you don’t decide to get the box, I hope you take the idea of trying new things to heart.

Review of the Wee Box
I LOVE the concept of bringing Scotland to one’s home, but I think there could be some improvements. The idea of Scotland-made will widen the availability of products that could be included in the boxes. Thus, the Wee Box could provide quality and quantity. I mean a box of teas could include 15-30 tea bags, making it so worth purchasing.
Things that could’ve been included with “Coorie in” are:
- Scotland-made socks
- Local Scotland Teas
- Handmade Mugs/Cups (equivalent of the bothy)
- Handmade Candles
- Scotland-made Candle holders
The company could absolutely improve the longevity of their subscriptions through the use of qualitative research. Focus groups and interviews would provide qualitative insights about their target audience.
There is absolutely a market for Scotland goods. The evidence is in the success now and the draw of us towards Scottish goods. I LOVE everything this company stands for.
But I would love it if they TRULY brought the essentials and the qualities of a Scotland home to our home. Rather than (perhaps) surface-level gifts one might purchase abroad, bring us the true essences of Scotland.
I believe that would absolutely keep me subscribing. How about you?
