Poll of the Day > Has anyone here tried factor?...

(+) Yeah! (+)

I recently tried it since there was like a discount code. I think the total cost for 10 meals (with shipping, I think) was suppose to be like $130 or something. But I got like $70 off, so it went down to $40... Which was like $4 a meal, which wasn't bad... Though, the price hike for regular meals might be high... But it's kind of cool. The stuff's not frozen (which means it'll only last like a week in the fridge, but you can freeze it to last longer). And even with the price hike, I think it'd be cheaper than the food delivery apps. The meals, I've had so far have been pretty good. And they have a ton of options (for amount of meals a week, different diet restrictive meals, lots of choices, etc.)... And they are suppose to be healthier than some other choices... Also, it's like 2 minutes in the microwave to cook...

But I want to know if anyone else tried it. And their thoughts if they did...

Not factor, but I did freshly for a while (which apparently went out of business). It was like $60 for 6 meals. I basically stopped it once I started working from home because not only was it too expensive (really, if you cook yourself you can make meals like that for 1/3 of the price) but it was also a hassle dealing with all of the packaging. Plus I had a few times where the meals got stuck in delivery and I ended up having to throw out the package because it arrived a few weeks late.

A few weeks late definitely sucks. Though, they probably could have refunded you... But that wouldn't help with the missed meals... Mine was only a few days late... But it was due to the ice we had recently where everything was pretty much shut down... Cooking may be cheaper for me (though with more basic meals, and more basic sides)... Though, I haven't really wanted to cook recently, nor do I have the time. And it helps to have a meal I can just bring to work, and also have when I get home late... Since I've only had one box, I haven't had to deal with the packaging much yet... But I can see how that might end up being a hassle.
