I don't know if anyone here is thinking of trying them? I got a voucher from WHSmith that got me the 1st and 5th box free and thought I'd give them a go, and I've had a couple that are quite nice so far; I'm hoping they'll give me/us some ideas for snacks other than chocolate bars, which they seem to be.
Anyway, I've got a promotional code that will give you the 1st, 5th and 10th boxes free (normally £3.95 each, you can get them twice a week, weekly or fortnightly) plus a couple of £5 vouchers, both ONLY for new users and the code thing can only be used 4 times. Give me a shout if you'd like and I'll PM.

Never heard of them, but it looks great! Wish they had something like that over here...

I don't get them. I don't get the veggie boxes either. Maybe it's something to do with food in a box

I think it'd be great in the office, just the convinience of a box of healthy snacks delivereed to my office instead of the also convenient but unhealthy snackmachine downstairs.

I had them for awhile but there seemed to be too many sweet versus savoury snacks for me and a lot of them were really high in calories. Nice if you don't need to lose weight IMHO.

I get them. You can choose though Liz. You can opt for only healthy choices, or just got to the site and 'bin' all the sweet options, so they only send the things you like. I also have some codes if Snow runs out.

I probably wasn't patient enough. I binned loads of sweet stuff but still got sent sweet things. Maybe I'll try again.

I think they also provide a calorie-count for all the options, not that calories are the be-all and end-all (obv). I'm trying to make sure I get the things it would be hardest to do myself (ie not just a mix of various dried fruits).

I just tried them and got my first box - went through the list and blocked all the stuff I don't want (which was lots, mainly the sweet stuff), and got three of the things I had down as favourites.
Disappointed though as I am really underwhelmed with the taste of them, I tried the cheddar gorge nibble mix and the el picante nibble mix, and both taste rather artificial, like the usual stuff I can buy for 10% of the price in the supermarket. It's a nice idea, but quite a lot £3.95) for a few little snacks…so I will cancel again and not bother with my second box.
