BUCKET LIST
TLDR: A scratch-off Adventure Bucket List is the gift that works when they live in another city, already have everything, and you want more than a card that says love you. Here's why families keep coming back.
It's something they can do without you (and with you)
Most gifts get used once, or sit in a closet. This one gets them out of the apartment they just moved into. Fifty curated adventures in the place they live now, so they have stories to tell you on Sunday night, and a list to work through when you visit.
It solves the "they have everything" problem
Grown kids buy what they want. They don't need another sweater, gadget, or gift card to a store they already shop. What they will use is a reason to explore the city or state they landed in after they left home.
Zero planning required (we did the year of research)
You don't have to know their new city. Every list took months of scouting: iconic must-dos and hidden gems most locals have never heard of. They scratch a card, scan the QR code, and go. You did the thoughtful part. We did the research.
The scratch-off reveal never gets old
There's a reason people film themselves scratching these. The surprise is the point. You don't pick the adventure, the card does. It turns deciding what to do into the most fun part of the weekend.
Icons take out all the guesswork
Each card shows the season, budget, and duration at a glance, so you can pick a free afternoon adventure or a full-day splurge before you scratch. No surprises you can't handle, only ones you'll love.
How It Works
1. Choose An Area
Plan ahead by picking an area you are visiting soon, or be spontaneous and grab a card once you've arrived in the area!
Mix & match 2+ and save up to 20%
One for each kid, or one for them and one for you back home. Bundle any two or more bucket lists (state, city, hiking, family, kindness) and save up to 20% with free shipping. The easiest way to give every adult child something they'll actually use.
Pick Their StateIt works for the kid who just moved and the one who never left
New-city explorers, homebodies who need a nudge, couples who just got married, siblings who still live nearby. Adventures range from leisurely afternoons to full-day epics, and the icons let them pick the right pace before they scratch.
It keeps giving all year long
A check gets spent. A gift card gets forgotten. Fifty scratch-offs last a year of weekends, and every time they head out they think of the parent who sent it. That's a gift that keeps you in the story.
Gift with confidence: free 30-day exchanges
Grabbed Colorado when they just moved to Texas? No problem. Every list comes with free 30-day exchanges, so the gift is always right even when the guess isn't.
4,000+ five-star reviews don't lie
Over a million adventurers have used RIO bucket lists to get out and explore. The reviews say the same thing over and over: "I bought one as a gift for my daughter, then ordered another for us."
