Can I Choose Which Months My Pup-scription arrives?

Absolutely! If you need every other month, let us know on your questionnaire and we will work within your time frame.

I’d like to pick up my order monthly, do I get a discount?

If you’ve opted to pick up your order, we are so excited to see your face in store! We will be giving you an extra goodie (sticker, magnet, card, pin etc) to balance out the lack of shipping costs, so no discount will be applicable.

I don’t want to receive stickers or other gifts in my boxes, do I get a discount?

Sadly, we cannot give a discount if you opt out of the swag and gifts.

Can I use my educator discount?

Un-fur-tunately discounts cannot be applied. 

Can I use a gift card, summer reading coupon, full punch card or store credit to pay for the subscription?

Gift Cards: Yes!

Summer Reading Coupon: Yes!

Full Punch Card: Ruh-Roh, no, but you earn punches for your subscription purchases to shop in store! We will keep your punch card in store on file for your convenience. When you have a full punch card, we’ll send it to you!

Store Credit: No, store credit is for in store shopping only. 

If I order multiple subscriptions, can I get a discount?

We cannot offer discounts even if you purchase multiple subscriptions. The best way to save money is to pre-pay for 6 months (5% discount) or 12 months (10% discount) of your subscription.

I would like the box to arrive by a certain date. Can you do that?

We try to accommodate customers’ requests. Because we curate and hand-pick books each month, please allow 14 days from order date to arrival. 

My child received a book/puzzle they already have, what do I do?

If you are close to our bookstore, you can bring it back for a comparable exchange. If you are not close by, you can mail it back to us and we will add another book into your next shipment.   We do not cover shipping charges for returned items that you mail back to us.

Absolutely! Who doesn’t love treats? We’ll just need contact information for the recipient so we can cater to their requests.

For the holidays: What is the latest day I can order a subscription if I want the recipient to receive their books by Christmas?
