Like I said initially we've used 3 similar services, and there are at least a couple others we haven't tried. We tried one that sent frozen meals but it was horrible, quit after one order. Most of them offer you your first couple boxes free, and there's no long term subscription obligation either. You can stop shipments online if you want a break, select from 5-12 meals the week prior, and pick what day your meals arrive each week. I realize it's more expensive than buying the stuff yourself but we love it and have used them for about a year so far. It's like a Christmas present every week lol.
