Hi all,

As it turns out, each HF gift card comes with free shipping worth $12 as well, meaning you're essentially getting $62 value. Even when there's no fat cashback offers, make sure to each week buy at least one gift card for yourself so you at least get the shipping for free (plus 5% cashback or whatever the going rate is at ShopBack).

When there is a fat cashback, don't buy a $200 or $500 or whatever. Just buy multiples of $50, as you get much better value since each bigger denomination also only comes with ONE time free shipping.

    Nice tip for anyone who uses them.

    For me, Hello Fresh is so much more expensive than just doing it all yourself And you can save more time with batch cooking.

    Do you have any secrets to get their prices down to reasonable levels?

      Busy people need the convenience. It’s about the same price as eating out at a casual place but definitely healthier.

        Isn't Hello Fresh the one you cook yourself though? Chopping stuff up and measuring doesn't take that long, especially if you do batch cooking.

          It is. Sourcing ingredients and recipes takes a lot of time for some.

            Did you know you can shop online at Coles and Woolies now?

          My wife and I get home after work mentally exhausted, and the last thing we want to think about is then needing to cook dinner.
          Instead we grab the HelloFresh recipe cards, ask the kids to pick one, and there's a matching bag in the fridge containing what we need.

          That - and I'm pretty sure we're an ADHD house and barely have our sh1t together as it is. I pay HelloFresh to adult this one for me because we lack the foresight nor motivation to do batch cooking and preparation

            What a great way to relax your mind then with a bit of cooking…

            But you have to cook Hello Fresh meals, right?
