Any one tried the Morrisons Food Box scheme?

[poppy1973]

I am thinking of ordering one for my parents to be sent over to them. Has anyone tried the meat box option ? Is it worth the money ? Many thanks

I had one delivered this morning. It was worth the money

Given that it’s meant to feed two for a week I’d guess it’s going to be quite good value. I’m also interested to hear though.

Hi CatToddlerUprising, can I ask what items you got in it ?

We couldn’t get a delivery slot until April 15th!

There is a thread somewhere with photos and the contents posted, hopefully someone else will be able to link it as I can't find it now! I don't think you are getting anything above and beyond your money, but seems reasonable for the price, and enough for 2 adults quite comfortably.

Some info on the thread here, including from people who've had them:

I can get one in my area on April 5th, just thinking that my parents can't get a shopping slot until the 15th and they are too old to get to the shops and not well themselves.

We received one today. It contained
Mince,
Sausages
Bacon
Chicken breasts
Pasta
Rice
Pasta sauce
Milk
Butter
Bread
Ham
Cheese
Carrots
Onions
Potato’s
Broccoli
Peppers
A few tins of soup
Toilet roll
Kitchen roll .
Definitely worth it I thought !

Sorry for the scribbling, my DD was in the background

We couldn't get one ☹️

Oh that’s really useful. Thanks for thread and list and photo!

I ordered one for my parents as they are in the vulnerable group and couldn’t get an online order. It arrived today, in the hour time slot I was given. Contents enough for them to get by for 2 weeks when added to the few bits they had in already.
I’ve ordered another for 2 weeks. Impressed with the idea and the service.

I was supposed to be getting one delivered today. I've had no notification of delivery time from DPD which, according to my confirmation email, I would receive this morning.

I'm assuming now that mine won't turn up.

Did anyone have their box turn up having heard nothing else since booking confirmation?

My confirmation email ended up in my junk folder, but I did receive texts. Sorry yours hasn’t shown, I feel grateful my parents one turned up now.

We had one on Friday, exactly the same as above. The order e-mail went to my spam folder, but I got a few texts from DPD to confirm the delivery time.

Just had mine, no rice, no pasta, just 1kg potatoes and one loaf for the carbs - think it's worth about £24, so a disappointing box, won't repeat - won't feed one adult, let alone two

I know I am late to the discussion but thought id post anyway.

I have just received my second food box since lockdown as I was very pleased with my 1st one.
In the evening of receiving my first box (the meat eater box for £35) I went onto the Morrisons website and added everything into my cart to compare the prices of the food box vs if I had got them by regular shopping. (The things that were not able to be added to the cart as they were sold out I substituted for something of the exact same price). It came to £34.50 so only 50p more than going to the supermarket. I am more than happy with that as delivery was free anyway.
Hope this is of help to someone.
