I'm addicted to Graze boxes!

Gah! I mean I just wanted the free one, then I figured I'd stick to 5... now I don't even know if I'll cancel. Yes it's expensive but everything has been totally delicious and things I would probably never have considered eating on my own. The only reason boxes last over a day is so I can fit the stuff in my diary (I only have the light boxes though). I'm on my third box and will have the next one sent tomorrow I think!

Is anyone else addicted?

    I saw these mentioned on another thread and am now seriously considering getting them. Are they good? More accurately, are they worth it?

    I'm just wondering about the sodium content?

    I get those Japanese Bento boxes with tiers and separaters and make my own. I'm in america so they just now started doing that here but you have to ask for an invite and wait until they send you a code.

    Well it's 4 little snacks for $6. So, not cheap, but Greek yogurts are $1 or something, so it's all relative I guess. I'm sure you could make the equivalent for much cheaper if you looked. I just wouldn't know where to get most of this stuff. Although you pay $15 total for the first 5 boxes, so that's a very good deal, IMO.

    In this box the sodium goes from 7mg to 200mg.

    I love boxes! I get one from nature box, juniper and runners box. Do you have an invite code for Graze? Otherwise you can't sample it :(

    I've gotten 2 so far. I LOVE them! I get them every 2 weeks- that's only $12 a month ($6/box- and I work in marketing so I know that price is very fair given their packaging and personalized printed materials included).

    As far as the sodium goes, here are the #'s for the last box I received:
    Raspberry & Coconut muffin: 4.2mg
    British BBQ: 86.5mg- this one contains a lot of nuts, which you would figure the sodium would be higher!
    Apple & Cinnamon Flapjack: 105mg (the most I've seen so far, but this is their highest calorie snack also)
    Super Berry Detox: 43mg

    So it's really not that bad.
    Edit to add: Before they send you your first box (and every time you get a box), you're allowed to browse all of the snacks online. If you see something that you assume would be higher in sodium (or you already got and didn't like), you can let them know to never send it to you. That's what I really like about it!

    Not new for the US, I had mine start last January (I live in Wisconsin). Got shipments through August.

    I loved them for awhile, but ended up getting sick of them. You are correct, though, there were snacks I would not think of eating otherwise.

    Me too :-D I had my first one last week and thoroughly enjoyed it. Next one is being sent tomorrow.

    It is expensive but I used to spend far more than that on junk food. I look at it as my 'treat' for the week and it is nowhere near as bad for as the junk I used to stuff myself with...

    I'm addicted as well and have the light box too. There is no way I am going to cancel because I feel like it is a treat getting to try out these random snacks. My first box had BBQ Pistacchios, Cinnamon Pretzel, Banoffee Pie and Pina Colada and I seriously loved them all. I just replaced a snack each day with one of these and it was perfect.

    Anyone want a US code?

    I have 4

    I just counted. I've gotten 36 boxes so far! I signed up early, January or February. I have NOT gotten sick of any of the snacks, though I do trash more and more as I go. I get them only every other week now (used to be weekly) so my new boxes are even more special now :)

    the snacks are fun, getting the box is fun (I don't look online to see what's coming so it's a surprise). I wouldn't call the snacks healthy, but they are calorie controlled. I've "trashed" everything that's easy to get or cheaper elsewhere - pistachios, wasabi peas, the pure fruit mixes. Now I just get the fun stuff :)

    I look forward to my afternoon graze treat :) having bonnie wee oatbakes in a bit!

    All-time favorite grazes:
    hot cruss yum
    anything with vanilla seeds or cinnamon almonds
    summer berry compote (the BEST)
    honeycomb crunch
    yaki soba

    and they used to have a really fabulous one called bollywood blend but I think it's dc'ed :(


    I'm really hoping we eventually get the brownies/cakes, olives, and high tea that the UK people get!

    I open the box, take out the most interesting one, and send the rest to work with my husband. That way, I don't make them my day's meal.

    I LOVE flapjacks!

    Then you will have 5 different boxes mailed to you at any time you wish.
    Main thing to remember here is YOU CAN CANCEL ANYTIME.

    I'm in England and have been getting them for about 6 months.
    I suppose they are quite expensive, but they are a much anticipated treat to me. I get them every 2 weeks, although I have been able to put them back a week if I am not getting through the snacks.
    I aim for the lowest calories, and have them as a lunch on days when I can't cope without a little something.
    I may be a saddo, but I find myself getting quite excited as they drop hrough the letterbox!

    I'm still addicted to them. I don't think I could make anything that good for that money (plus I'd have to buy big quantities of the stuff, not convenient). Added bonus is that it makes me eat more nuts (which I don't typically like).

    If they could sell some things in bigger quantities for cheaper I'd be all over it though.

    I can give a code also so more of you can enjoy all the Graze goodiness!

    Might as well try it to get your first box free and then your 5th box would be free too. And $6 after that isn't really all that bad if you were to add up other snacks you already eat.

    I've been getting them for about six weeks now, get them every week and so far have liked pretty much everything.

    Ok so I just looked at this website and I'm intrigued and went ahead and signed up. Am I correct that they will send me one every two weeks and bill me $6.00 for a box of snacking goodies? I don't think this seems horribly expensive. I guess if they were coming more often then once every two weeks then it would be. Am I missing something?
