Costco Wholesale.com is selling 2-Pack $50 Blue Apron Gift Cards on sale for $64.99. This deal is only for Costco Members. Gift cards are shipped free.
These are normally $79.99 for the 2-pack. However, there is an additional $15 off between 8/27/18-9/2/18.
eGift Card version is apparently out of stock (¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
Checked in store (Northern VA) and the GC's were no longer on the shelf/

IMHO:
1st. Plated: it is much more premium. The recipes are more complex and take more time but they are actually restaurant quality. I dont feel I am doing regular food with them. Once you try plated you see the other ones meh. Also they are the only ones with a plan for 4 adult portions 2 times a week. That way we only cook two times and have food for 4 days.
2nd. Hello Fresh: their recipes are always good and they have a big variety. They also offer gourmet meals for $6 extra per person that are fantastic but IMHO these "premium ones" are like the regular ones from Plated. Hello fresh have really good ingredients too and they allow to pause and skip very easy.
3. Home chef: their recipes are good. I still think hello fresh are a little better. Home chef recipies are simple. They are ALWAYS on discount. For some reason you always get a $10 credit everyweek. And if you stop or cancel they give you more credit lol.
4. Blue apron: dont get me wrong. Blue apron is still really good also. But I would not pay full price for it never. Specially considering Plated and HelloFresh cost the same and are waaaay better. Blue apron recipies are very easy to make, in fact they are too easy and simple. So I only do blue apron when they have a promo like these gift cards on sale. Even then, I feel like I am paying a preimium for regular simple recipes.
Their stock has dropped dramatically since their IPO and seed money will soon be depleted. Vultures are circling...
BTW thanks and reps to the OP

Would be nice to have the e-Gift Cards, but it's free shipping for the physical ones. This drops the cost per meal for Blue Apron to about $6.50 per person.

The one item my wife said she loved is getting the exact amount of a specific ingredients that otherwise you would probably never use again or would have to get a large quantity.
My wife and I cook together when doing Blue Apron. She will cut/chop. I will make the marinated, grate the cheese, and cook the meat. Pretty enjoyable cooking actually.
In May I got $500 for $325 (eGift cards then)... skipped some weeks, but it resulted in 14 meals shipped for family of four. Def worth it to me.

I got in during a ridiculously good deal for blue apron. Originally planned on getting my 4 meals (2 weeks) at the discounted price, and then canceling. Guess what? Me, the pickiest eater ever, loves this. I ate capers last week!! They were delicious! I picked out a bobs burger meal for the other one, the whole house smelled like yum. Husband is the one who prepares these blue apron meals, he's commented on the high quality of the ingredients. I just bought $500 in gcs. They're amazing.
