This is a PR box, this means there will sometimes be additional flavours or products than you’d get as a subscriber, I will highlight this within my post.
I feel like the Degustabox team have really upped their game lately, the last few boxes have been absolutely brilliant (rather than just regular brilliant) and the October 2020 box, with it’s Movie Night and Halloween theme was no exception, and according to Bob, the best yet.
£5 from major supermarket chains.
Bob homed straight in on the Flapjack from Brynmor- a beast of a chocolate flapjack bar which was apparently delicious.
I left him to it and opted to claim both of the product of the month; a couple of protein bar from Yes! I love their non protein range of products so I was excited to give these plant protein ones a go. The Almond, Peanut and Dark chocolate was everything I hoped it would be. The Cashew, Blueberry and Dark chocolate wasn’t so much to my taste but I did enjoy it and for those who like fruity flavours, you’ll love this! Each bar boats 10g of plant protein making them a healthier snack that certainly fills a hole.
Flapjack £1.29 from Ocado, Waitrose, Nisa, WHSmith Travelm brynmoorfoods.com and independent retailers.
Yes Bars £1.59 each from Holland and Barrett, BP, Moto and WHSmiths.
£1.50 per pot from Tesco.
Bob is loving the Maltesers instant hot chocolate, it’s been around a while but has a fancy new look right now. Great for a cosy evening watching a movie.
The coffee is £5.50 and the Hot Chocolate is £2.59 for a 350g tub from Morrison’s, Sainsburys and Asda.
The Olly’s pretzel thins were my product of the month, so crispy and well seasoned. The Multi-Seed especially really hit the savoury spot and I imagine dipped in hummus they are even better. Under 100 calories a pack, suitable for vegans and totally addictive.
£1 per pack from Amazon and Olly’s online shop.
£1.75 for 8 from Asda, Morrison’s, Ocado, Spar and Go Local.
£1.50 from all major retailers.
£2 for 6 from Tesco.
There was also a voucher in this month’s box to get some Scarestrings Strawberry Yollies but I couldn’t find them in any of my local shops so wasn’t able to review these.
Let me know if you’ve tried any of these products and what you thought in the comments, it’s always great to get other people’s thoughts.
If you’re new to Degustabox, it’s a monthly food subscription box that gives you the chance to try new and exciting products on the market whilst providing amazing value for money.
On a month by month basis the box costs £12.99 (with a discount for longer subscriptions) but the contents are generally worth far more than this as you can see if you do the maths.
If you’re persuaded to give Degustabox a go (and really, you should) you can claim £3.00 off of your first box (making it just £9.99!) by entering the code XOQGC at the checkout. It’s been a pleasure to work with the brand regularly over the last couple of years and it’s without a doubt something that I will continue to purchase long after our partnership ends. I love the monthly surprise and excitement as well as the chance to discover products I’d otherwise pass up on the supermarket shelves.
