Has anyone heard of boxsaver?

I've been making orders online using Asda and having them delivered to my son in uni accommodation - just want to be sure he's eating something!

I found https://boxsaver.com/ who say they are 20% cheaper than the major supermarkets, I was just wondering if anyone had used them or anything before I give them a go?

You're a devoted mum ! 

Haven't heard of them. Daucy veg are French and good. Good price for 2L of Cristalline water.

If it's the kind of thing your son eats OP - go for it! It's ultra processed food so probably not the most healthy, I'd be conscious that the eating habits he develops at university might set his pattern for life.

I would personally have no doubt that it will deliver what it claims to. Looks like the first order attracts a discount of 10%.

Well I placed an order - will post back when I get the goods to see what delivery was like (which was free).

Order was delivered in a Boxsaver branded box as promised with no damage.

The prices on the site are worked out the average of the top 4 supermarkets (Tesco, Asda, etc) with 20% taken off with the prices checked every night automatically by Priceable which I thought was a good way of doing it.  So if one of the supermarkets lowers the price, it will automatically be lower on Boxsaver too.

There are "value boxes" too which are pre-made bundles of items which have 25% discount, didn't try that yet, just wanted to get specific items for my son.

Also had a free box of mini eggs (presume its for my first order).

After the order I signed up for their newsletter which gave me a discount code for 10% so worth doing that.

I contacted them on live chat to ask whether they will be adding more products and they said they will be shortly.

All went well, so will probably do a monthly order with them for my son.

How is it going with the orders please? Any issues?
