I have to admit to a new guilty pleasure........the monthly delivery boxes that are now swamping the market in areas such as food, beauty, crafts, children's activities. I subscribe to a few and I'll feature some of them on the blog in the coming weeks. There's some kind of childlike excitement in waiting for the boxes to arrive and discovering what treasures are inside!
My most recent discovery was Degustabox. Degusta, meaning taste or sample, each month sends you a taster box of anywhere from 9-12 food/drink products for you to try and provide feedback. I was a little scpetical that these would be unheard of brands and products I wouldn't really use but I've been very pleasantly surprised. From wine and cider to baking shortcuts to yummy kid-friendly snacks we haven't yet had anything we didn't really like.
In June we had delightfully fruity Strawberry Lambrini, some delicious Elizabeth Shaw Amaretto chocolate flutes, a new healthy cereal (Bear - Alphabites) that my 4 year old devoured,Urban Fruit strawberry pure fruit snacks, a Dr Oetker vanilla bean grinder, Estrella Spanish Beer, Veetee Microwave Rice and Be Fast Breakfast drinks. Everything has been consumed, feedback provided, and we're now awaiting arrival of this month's delivery which usually arrives around 25th of the month. Each box is £12.99 and the contents definitely have a higher value if you were to buy in the grocery store - they also include a coupon or two in case you want to buy more and often recipes for ideas of how to use the products.
Have you succumbed to the temptation of any of the box deliveries? If so, which ones and do you feel they give good value for money?
Note - these opinions are entirely my own and Degustabox has neither sponsored this post nor provided free product.
