    Have been getting a box a week for a few months and dying to try the brownie. I got it today for the first time and am disappointed. Firstly it looked tiny, smaller than the flapjacks and then when I ate it it was really dry.

    What a let down! Do you think it was a bad batch? It's use by was 24 June are they always that short dated or was this a batch past it's best do you think?

    I had the breakfast box last week Glitter, it was very nice actually, the only one I wasn't keen on was the blueberry & lingonberry, it didn't taste very fruity at all.

    I got my normal box today, I got:
    Herby bread basket
    Cookies & cream fruit and nut mix
    Jaffa cake nut mix
    Summer berry compote & shortbread.

    I had the Cookies & cream for breakfast and I have to say it did fill me up.

    I was subscribed to Graze for a few months a couple of years ago, I ended up cancelling because the boxes started to arrive later and later and then not at all and the last box I had had a long grey hair and random bits of fluff in one of the little packets of nuts.
    I have a simple philosophy:
    Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

    Better make sure I where my glasses when I eat these in future!

    I'm far too tight to pay for one and I know if I got the freebie I'd be wanting one so I've stopped myself!

    still not succumbed FBR? I'm afraid I have - my first free Graze box should be waiting for me when I get home from work :). I binned loads of stuff - olives, most of the stuff with coconut or just seeds, anything with olive oil, oh loads. Kept the chocolate and fruity stuff though. Its like waiting to open a Christmas pressie!

    Any one else had the brownie? Are they meant to be dry and crumbly? Aren't brownies normally fairly dense, a little gooey?

    All this talk of Graze boxes and mine is sitting at home. I want it now! If I had it delivered to work I would scoff the lot in about 10 minutes :D

    I only signed up to get the free one, and that was weeks ago - somehow I just can't cancel, I love 'em.

    I've had two breakfast boxes so have tried all 8 of the porridges, all yummy, but a very expensive way to buy porridge (I normally pay around 99p for 1kg of supermarket own) so I have cancelled.

    So far I have limited my box delivery to fortnightly to keep costs down.

    Last week I gave a friend the code for a free box - wonder if she will get hooked too? :)
