Edit:

Some other great offers. Thanks bel13884!

http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au/baobag/ will give you the fruit and veg box for $6.50 (75% off)

http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au/bounty/ will give you the fruit and veg box for $13 (50% off)

These codes are from the bounty bag and bao bag I received in hospital recently having a baby.

Original post:

Because the HelloFresh deal was oh-so-popular (sarcasm; it was a fiasco) here's a similar deal:

We're stripping off half for 4 weeks!

Save $60* this month and try our Seasonal Fruit & Veg box delivered to your home. Includes free delivery

$15 each week for 4 weeks

Terms and conditions apply. $15 seasonal Pick and Pack Fruit & Veg box will only be available to customers who live in a serviceable area and place a minimum of 4 consecutive orders with Aussie Farmers Direct.

http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au/SocialOffer/

Based on experience, this is the cue for a bunch of naysayers to come out of the woodwork complaining about how bad the quality of the produce is, etc. etc. For what it's worth, the box that I received through the Amex deal was perfectly good. I didn't have any problem with the quality or freshness of anything in the pack. My delivery area is 2117 so your mileage may vary if you live in some other area.

Furthermore, this is primarily for the convenience, NOT the price. If you buy groceries only when they're on special, or in huge boxes from a growers market, this will not compare. Not even close. So if you came here to complain about inflated prices - I know.

Edit 2 - One other thing to keep in mind:
they sign you up for a subscription whether you order one box or multiple boxes, so you have to remember to cancel after your deal is finished.

    Its a shame it includes vegetables, I probably won't use all of them…

    Good deal though. I received a box from a previous deal and it was definitely better then supermarkets and fruit/veg shops.

    • mark_tony on 06/07/2013 - 07:08

      It might inspire you to learn new recipes which can save some $$$

    Whats in the normal $30 box?
    http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au/products/greengrocer.php#fvb…
    I cant find a $30 box?

    • zzyss on 05/07/2013 - 20:57

      Good question. It does mention the "Pick & Pack" which is the one listed at the bottom of the page with no price. I guess for the sceptical, it does beg the question of exactly what they will include in the box, although I'd expect you can add whatever up to $30 value.

      • rooon on 05/07/2013 - 20:59

        ah ok, I see now but cant see Pick & Pack prices without login :(

  • gbanger on 05/07/2013 - 20:51

  • huntress_love on 05/07/2013 - 23:42

    do you have to be a new customer to sign up for this?

    the pages you posted are for $6.50 and $13 box are these for 4 weeks also.

    Where do you go for the $15 x 4 weeks box is there a code?

    • samfisher5986 on 05/07/2013 - 23:55

      It says you do, but I tried anyway.

    • zzyss on 06/07/2013 - 09:33

      Sorry, I accidentally deleted the original deal and replaced it with the better one. Here's the link to the 4 week one:

      http://www.aussiefarmers.com.au/SocialOffer/

      The 2 from the bounty bag are for 1 box (i.e. 1 week) only.

    If you visit this page, it's got the various links to PDF's for each state showing whats in this week's F&V boxes.

    You don't have to be a new customer, received a call confirming today and she mentioned how I was an existing customer.

  • skinny on 09/07/2013 - 13:51

    Unfortunately Aussie Farmers Direct is unable to service you at your current address, however we are aiming on increasing our delivery locations as fast as possible!

    If they cannot service Melbourne - it would more like they want to simply add new members to their list!

  • honeydew on 15/07/2013 - 17:26

    I signed up last week and was lazy too answer their phone call until today.

    You actually still pay Aussie Farmer $26.00 but $6.50 goes towards a small fruit and vegg box and you have $19.50 on credit with them… a bit deceiving but maybe I didn't read the terms well enough.

    • leonheart1 on 15/07/2013 - 17:35

      Isn't that because you have to sign up for a minimum of 4 weeks?

      4 x 6.5 = 26.

      • honeydew on 16/07/2013 - 12:45

        I signed up for the bao bag 6.50 deal. I do not see anywhere where it states a 4 week minimum. I believe the 4 weeks is a different deal. I think the bao deal is $6.50 the first week and full price thereafter - $26.00.

        • leonheart1 on 16/07/2013 - 12:53

          Yeah my bad. I did the same. Although I'd have to cancel it before the fortnight is up.

        • honeydew on 16/07/2013 - 13:25

          Did they also charge you $26.00 to them but 6.50 towards the small veg and fruit box?

    • Letsgetagooddeal on 15/07/2013 - 17:39

      Really. They didn't explain that to me. Is that the $6.50 deal?

      • honeydew on 16/07/2013 - 12:41

        Yes

        • Letsgetagooddeal on 16/07/2013 - 13:51

          So with the credit, does it go towards the next fortnight's purchase, thus paying $6.50 more for next small fruit & veg?

    • zzyss on 16/07/2013 - 09:29

      I don't buy it (literally :-P) - if that's what they're telling you then you can safely argue that it doesn't say anywhere in the Terms and Conditions that you have to commit to paying $26.

      Pretty sure the deal is only 1 week/1 box.

      • honeydew on 16/07/2013 - 12:49

        I was told I'd be charged $6.50. To be honest I don't mind too much because I am looking to purchase other things too but others might mind. Or am a special case?

        • [Deactivated] on 16/07/2013 - 15:32

          No I don't think you are a special case (sorry). I think they are just a bit confused. I was sent an invoice that had a $26 charge on it and queried this as I was told I'd only be charged $6.50. They wrote back with:

          "Please be advised that as you have the below promotional code applied onto your account, your account is currently in credit by $19.50 which will be included onto your invoice once billed."

          I then asked if I cancelled the order before I was sent another box if I would be refunded the remaining $19.50? Then I got:

          "Thank you for your email and apologies for the confusion caused.

          Please be advised that as you are expected to receive your order of Fruit & Veg Couples (Small) this afternoon, your account balance is now $6.50, and you will be billed for this amount on Friday 26th which will then take your account balance to $0.00."

          Sounds fine to me.

        • Letsgetagooddeal on 16/07/2013 - 15:37

          So that means $32.50 for 2 deliveries?

        • honeydew on 16/07/2013 - 17:57
          +1

          OH misunderstanding now understood after much debate with my husband. I suppose because they bill you after the delivery they give you 19.50 credit in advance to make the regular 26.00 go down to 6.50 but I saw the TOTAL $26.00 after I logged on and I thought.. I don't know. Very very bad misunderstanding. Can I delete my post now hhaha

          Letsget - It'd be 6.50 for the first box and 26.00 for the 2nd but you can cancel after the first box.

        • Letsgetagooddeal on 16/07/2013 - 18:04

          Understood. Ta!
