Awful! Avoid using

Ordered on 24th March, Royal Mail tracking stated "we're expecting it" since 27th March. Have sent 3 emails chasing order without response. Have had to dispute transaction with credit card company to get my money back.

Shocking company, use at your peril.

Absolutely shocking company

Absolutely shocking company. The parcel arrived with a load of total garbage in it so after photographing the contents it went into the bin. No reply to any emails then I complained to Wowcher who deferred it back to Bargainfoods. Do not buy from this company.

Who are the 40,000 happy customers

Who are the 40,000 happy customers? I wish I had read the reviews first.
Stupidly taken in by the Wowcher offer for half price mystery box. The mystery is how do they get away with trading in this way. Shocking box of rubbish many out of date items, multipack items and dried up demisting cloths. Avoid at all costs. Numerous emails and a written letter sent complaining but no response.
Shocking.

Very disappointed

Very disappointed. i knew some things would be out of date... but wasnt expecting the items to be 1 carton of orange juice, 1 can of dr pepper, what looks like a few multipack croissants etc. Its barely worth £10. Disappointed.

So upset. No groceries.

So upset. I couldn’t afford a grocery shop so I looked up to see if I could find some deals for me and my 6 kids. When I saw this on Wowcher I was so happy I bought 2 boxes for £30. They said they each had £30 of groceries in. I also paid £7 to Wowcher and delivery. Unfortunately the boxes took a week and a half to get to me even though they say 48 hour delivery, and when I opened it it’s full of sweets and chocolate!!! No grocery things at all!!! And all thesweets and chocolate are out of date!!!! I’m so upset as I could have used the £30 at Aldi but I thought I would get more this way. We literally wont eat now because of this and I just don’t know what to do. I was stupid to trust them. The kids can’t live off gone off chocolates!!?

Do not buy deal from Wowcher

Do not buy deal from Wowcher, massive scam. The voucher was £3.50 which apparently gave me 50% off a mystery box of groceries. Said normally £30. So with Wowcher cost, £15 for box and £2.99 delivery, cost altogether £21.49. The stuff that arrived was probably worth £10, if that. Out of date biscuits and mostly individual cakes and tiny packets of sweets. Household item was a cheap face flannel which must have cost 10p!. They are liars describing it as a saving money box, they snd Wowcher should be ashamed of themselves. I’m angry

Would give 0

Would give 0. Rip off. Bought with a voucher of 50% off and most of the products are expired. Do not buy from these guys. Would not recommend to anyone.

1 star as no option to give zero

1 star as no option to give zero. Shameful scam, avoid at all costs!!!! As per other reviews, food items mainly random packets sweets and biscuits nowhere near equivalent in worth to purchase price, many items well past sell by date!!! Disgraceful that in the current economic climate, when so many struggling to afford the essentials, that an immoral company like this is allowed to scam people out of what little they have, and moreover, be publicised and endorsed by Wowcher!!!!! Tantamount to theft!!!

Best April fools delivery going

Best April fools delivery going.
£40 mystery box 🤣🤣🤣 what a joke.
Wants shutting down!
Buyer's be warned its full of out of date biscuits and sweets with pop and a can of airfreshner.
£5 value if that.
Save you money and go to a local food discount store ad you get 3 times as much for what these cost.
Hope you find your missus with your mate having a good old romp 😂
Scum!
