Has anybody else used Graze for snacks ? They send a box through with 4 sections of snacks which can be very healthy.
People can have them delivered at their desks apparently - they come through the post.

They use recycled packaging etc.

I am intrigued by the concept and the business idea. I wonder if more businesses like this will spring up. Or is this old news.

(If you want a code for a free box DPDJ8YD3)

We had this about 6 weeks ago, I joined up.. Still with them as its a nice little snack, get some good things with it that I'd never think of trying really!

Not cheap though..

I signed up for a free box a while back after getting a code from someone, haven't cancelled the subscription as some of their stuff is pretty good. Just get the one box a week and it's better than me popping out to buy crisps instead.

I haven't (yet) but heard of them. What's the deal?
You have to pay for the postage/delivery I assume?

You pay a set price that includes P&P for your box. You tell them what you like and don't like and they send you the box with your 4 snacks in it. They do a huge range of things granola, olives, nuts, dried fruit, flapjack etc

It's ok but in comparison to knocking up your own from Holland and Barrett it's frightfully expensive.

I just have one fortnightly these days.

Yeah, I signed up to it.

Convenient way of getting healthy food into your working day...but probably not value for money.

I've been doing this for a while, justifying it on the basis that I can easily waste £3 a week on junk (crisps + choc etc). It's good stuff, nice mix of nuts + dried fruit etc.

Yeah they're lovely! Have you had the Vanilla Seeds? They're nice!

I wasn't a massive fan of the Wasabis but the other lot, lovely!

Vanilla Seeds were nice, yup.

TBH I eat anything but admit to cutting raisins and bird seed! Way to boring.

Honeycomb flapjack is amazing, plus the wasapeas, and bento mix, and rice crackers, and....

Code for anyone to get a free box, plus one half price, is 5M2WBH9

I was on 2 a week for a month until I looked at how much I was spending. It's quite a premium to pay for the laziness/convenience factor. With all the supermarkets now stocking these items in bulk it's so much cheaper to just buy big bags of everything and some tupperware boxes.

I nom my way through goji berries, dried mango, cashews and cranberries every day for the same cost of Graze boxes twice a week.

I've taken to using the graze trays filled with my own mixture with a bit of cling film over the top to hold in whilst in transit.

Stops me over-eating.
