Hello Fresh box

Hello Fresh give discounts to existing customers if they share a free box to a "new customer".

Hello Fresh give discounts to existing customers if they share a free box to a "new customer".

If you have never tried Hello Fresh before, please message me for a free box. I'll need your email address, then you'll get an invite from them.

Hello Fresh works on a cellphone app. It may also work on a desktop/laptop (never tried).

Note the shipping is NOT free and is $9.99. I think you may also get discounts on future boxes.

Also if you want a box greater than $135 (I think) or extras like lunches or desserts, these are NOT free.

Hello Fresh works out pretty cheap if you keep getting the discounts. I just skip any weeks when I don't have discounts!

Tip: To cancel, call them (you can't do it in the app). Also if you cancel, then a year later you'll be considered a new customer and can call them and ask for discounts (esp if you mention Bargain Box!).

Hello Fresh definitely use alot of savvy marketing techniques, but if you are equally savvy, you can turn the tables and keep your grocery bill low!
