Get in on the viral ‘Boo Basket’ craze: How Bath shoppers can join the fun

If you’ve been anywhere near TikTok lately, you’ve probably seen the latest trend lighting up the platform: Boo Baskets!

With over 88.7 million views on TikTok, these thoughtful gift baskets are taking the internet by storm, and Bath shoppers are in the perfect spot to jump on board.

Boo Baskets are all about celebrating the cozy vibes of autumn. The idea? Curate a personalised basket for your partner, bestie, or kids filled with seasonal goodies that scream fall. Think warm blankets, fuzzy socks, bath bombs, and of course, a pumpkin-spiced candle or two. And that’s just the beginning - TikTokers are also packing their baskets with PJs, skincare products, cute mugs, comfy loungewear, and even stuffed animals. Plus, don’t forget the sweet treats!

For those in Bath looking to build their own Boo Basket, SouthGate Bath is making it easier than ever. They’ve rounded up a list of great gift ideas from some of your favorite retailers like Oliver Bonas, Rituals, Typo, Accessorize, Urban Outfitters, Hotel Chocolat, and even Sainsbury’s.

So, whether you’re spoiling a loved one or treating yourself, it’s time to embrace the Boo Basket craze and make this October extra special!

Guy Henderson, centre director at SouthGate Bath, said: “It’s always fun to see how seasonal trends change over the years, and TikTok is increasingly influencing shopping habits. Last year saw autumnal home decor trending and this year it’s ‘boo baskets’.

“The centre’s range of retailers across fashion, beauty, lifestyle and homeware makes it the perfect destination to visit if you are thinking of making a basket to treat a loved one.”
