Lost $150 on a meal delivery service after 2 weeks
Signed up for one of those pre-portioned meal kit boxes back in March. Figured it would save time and help me cook more. After 14 days I had a fridge full of wilted herbs and three bags of kale I never touched. The recipes took way longer than the box said. Like 45 minutes for something they claimed was 20. Cancelled after the second week but I was already out $150. Anyone else get tricked by the marketing on these things?

Wilted herbs hit different when you paid $150 for them.

Went through almost the EXACT same thing last fall. Switched to just buying whatever veggies were on sale at the grocery store and using a simple app for recipe ideas instead. Ended up saving like $80 a month and actually cooked more because I wasn't stressing about the box ingredients going bad. Kale is the WORST offender too, stuff wilts in like 2 days no matter what you do.
