Is your family sick of the same old casserole you've been making since Taylor Hicks won American Idol? 🥴🍲 Got a little wiggle room in your budget to try something new? A meal subscription service might be your best bet. 📦
Although they're more of a splurge-y treat than a bargain, there are ways to dabble in the world of meal subscription services without breaking the bank. 💸 Many options offer discount codes with a casserole dish full of savings!
Here’s Five Fast Facts about meal subscription plans:
- 🌞 Rise and Shine - Looking for new breakfast ideas? HelloFresh throws in a free breakfast item in the first several boxes for new customers. Like GreenChef, HelloFresh gives a big discount on your first order and then a smaller promo on the next eight. Plans range from $8.99 to $12.49 per serving.
- 🍴 Kitchen Crew - Blue Apron is one of the most popular meal subscription services out there. Their recipes change every Monday so you're never eating the same things. Choose from a range of plans priced between $7.99 and $12.29 per serving. Blue Apron also has a tiered promotion where you can save on your first six orders and free shipping on your first box.
- 🥗 Going Green - If you're vegetarian or gluten free, try Green Chef. Their recipes switch up every Saturday and you can select up to four meals per week. Plans are priced per serving and range from $11.99 to $13.49. Green Chef will give you a deep discount on your first box and then a smaller discount on your next nine boxes.
- 🧑🍳 Chef's Kiss - Another gluten free and veggie-friendly option is Home Chef. New recipes get added every Monday and plans range from $9.99 to $11.99 per serving. Bonus: they'll give you 50% off your first four boxes.
- 🚨 But Here's the Twist - Pro tip: skip or cancel any unwanted orders in your account so you're not overcharged. One of the sneaky things about meal subscriptions is that they'll keep 'em coming unless you tell them to stop. Also, make sure to read the fine print to understand the cancellation policy before making a commitment.
🔥Bottom line: Whether you're tired of planning meals every night or want to cook up something new and exciting, meal subscription services come to the rescue. Just make sure you're playing smart by taking advantage of discounts to save big. Are you someone who lives in the moment? Would you rather spend on experiences than save for the future? You, my friend, might be a soft saver. Find out what that is here.
