I may have manifested a price increase but it was inevitable. I think Dinnely has the most efficient, least wasteful, service of all the delivery services we use. They claim a less than 1% food waste and the intent to reduce that. And they have already cut a few things that the other services have continued (so far). Dinnerly used to just throw in a garlic bulb if any of your meals had garlic in them. The other services may provide one clove if one clove is in the recipe. We never bought garlic as Dinnerly always provided. Then they cut that as a cost savings measure. I was onboard with it and really thought the addition of an entire clove was a little much anyway however much I liked it. So we started buying garlic again.
After my saying yesterday that they would be raising prices soon I received an email last night saying just that. It works out to about $4 per week if we get three meals for the two of us. One dollar of that goes to shipping, the second shipping price increase by Dinnerly this year.
The others will soon follow, I'm sure. They can not absorb what is happening. It is still cheaper to get food from these services. Likely more efficient on the food chain and the quality and variety is still pretty good. And, most importantly, I don't much have to think.
