I get these. Problem is, they are devoured within 48 hours and I only get one a week

Yes I have, it's lovely. I'm not a big lover of jerky but theirs is gorgeous, the dip with it makes it special. Funnily tho my husband loves jerky but doesn't like the graze one.

Pros
- A much wider variety than you would get in the shops / make at home in the same amout of time (Ie i got babanabread today, moroccan olives, chilli pistachio and fudge/chrry/raisin/almond mix and it will be different next week, i couldnt be stockpiling those ingredients and making that kind of variety all the time)
- Delivered to my work address, left on my desk if im not there
- A nice little surprise on a wednesday
- Different surprise food each time
- they tell you what the calories are for each box, if you like that sort of thing
- if i know i have snacks at work, i will not buy dirty maccy d breakfast on the way in

Cons
- expensive for what you get. but remove the cost of postage and packing and it probably works out cheaper than a packet of crisps
- small packets
- it only lasts me 2 days, maybe 3

........

Order more boxes - I have 3 a week (mon, wed and fri). Weekdays I eat one at work and one in evening and weekends I just have one in evening.

Like you said - crisps/choc etc would cost much more and wouldn't be so satisfying/healthy

I only get one a week, but wish I could afford more, I love my grazeboxes. Part of it is getting a little surprise in the post, but the snacks are also good too. I had the sticky toffee pudding this week, OMG yum.
The snacks are small, but they're the perfect size if you're watching your calories.
So other than the cost, no real cons for me.
Hope they send me another one of the dips and high teas this week.

Just found out they are available in the US. Another great GB export!

ive recently succumbed to ordering three of these, one of which i got for free, they look v nice!! i had a couple of boxes a couple of years ago and i must say the range has improved!!
im giving the breakfast box a try this time round! price i suppose is a little steep for what you get but im trying to eat more healthily, so will see how it goes!!

On Monday March 10th my sister received her first graze box that I had arranged as a gift / surprise for her
Then every 2 weeks on Monday's - - since then - - she has received another one ~yesterday she received her 7th box of graze box goodies

They all look Soooo yummy
I can see on my account on their web site which 4 treats she has been receiving each fortnight

They are extremely overpriced, for the snacks received. I cancelled my subscription pretty swiftly. I suppose if you are watching your weight - I am exactly the opposite - having them in portions may be beneficial. With a bit of will power, buy the ingredients and make up the packs yourself.

I only liked the flapjacks and the chocolate buttons, so it kind of defeated the object and I cancelled it.

I love getting my Graze Box once a week, it's a nice little surprise. I had to laugh though when my nice healthy treat box turned up the other week with 3 flapjack varieties, and a cake , all my Loves, but I didn't know where to start. I prefer the boxes when they're a bit more balanced.
