    If I understand my work colleague corectly, you can squalk if the box arrives late & get money off the next box. The portions *are* a bit small to the eye - but you get a hearty chomp of brazils as a portion & there are four different portions in the box.
    If you've had something you don't like, go online & say so!
    She's majorly pro-healthy eating & turned down everything with chocolate. Or thought she had. She was clicking away pretty fast when this weeks box contained something with choc chips added.
    To help her, we cleared them away sharpish. Purely in the spirit of supporting a colleague you understand...:D

    Heheh what a good colleague you are! :EasterBun:p I also chose no chocolate. If I wanted chocolate I could buy lots pretty cheap (6 creme eggs for £1.50 at tescos at the moment, thanks naughty grabbit poster) and enjoyed trying new things.

    I think the portions are just fine...although I think them saying it will last a couple of days is optimistic! I "grazed" on mine in one sitting. Agree with you that they "look" small though :)

    If I signed up for these regularly I would ditch things like raisins and focaccia and stick to the little boxes of things like dried blueberries/mulberries/mango etc to get maximum value for money.

    I'm sure years ago they used to send fresh fruit out too? Does anyone remember this?

    I ditched most of the raisin boxes too, as not my thing. Love other dried fruit, and nuts/seeds though. Also only kept the two olive selections which had garlic in as that is how I like my olives.

    I'll see what the focaccia is like hopefully tomorrow, if it turns up!

    I recieved mine today. Its all gone now. :p

    It contained west country cheddar, red onion and chutney focaccia, ellie's apple crumble (very tasty), green olives with garlic, and chillis seed mix. I enjoyed it as I got it for free plus £1.75 paid to me for being late. :D

    Can't wait for the next one now.

    They did used to do fresh fruit (long time grazer) and it was always excellent. But many people complained, such a shame :(
  • I cannot thank lisaleichester enough for posting this! I've always wanted to try graze and I got my first box delivered on the right day and it was absolutely delicious! I got fruit flapjack, love mix (dried berries), oriental crackers and vanilla seeds (which i highly recommend, they tasted almost like sweets)! I loved every single bit of it and it was such great quality. Next time I'm getting dates and pistachios and I can't wait! I even persuaded my mum to sign up using my code so I have another pound off AND quidco! YAAAAAY!

    Received mine this morning, I got:
    1) korean chilli rice crackers
    2) jaffa cake
    3) swallows and amazons
    4) kalamata olives with herbs

    All really good quality and delivered on time.
    Will be going for the 2nd half price box- anyone know how to get the cashback for the 2nd box?

  • Hi again folks,

    Just a quick note.
    Ive noticed that if you want to continue with the graze box and have it regularly you can just buy a gift voucher and then each box works out at £2.99 instead of £3.49

    Example: 3 box gift voucher is £8.97

    (just click on 'gift' at the top after sign in)

    I know alot of ppl think it is too expensive. I guess we forget the fact the box is being delivered within this cost tho.
    I do find the portions small without the fresh fruit anymore, i must admit.

    I feel £2.99 isnt too bad for one a week. Still thinking about it :)
    :AQuidco
    :D Codes
