Someone recently contacted me and said they were trying to “order medifast as cheaply as possible.” In this sense, she stressed that he wanted to pay “only for food” and was looking for the “cheapest distributor.” There were many things that I had to explain to answer her questions. I thought if she had these concerns and questions, I’m sure other people have similar issues. So, in the following article, I will go over how to order medifast meals and groceries as cheaply and cost-effectively as possible.
You do not have to pay for anything other than your Medifast food: The person who wrote me seemed to think there was some membership or membership fee to sign up or use their resources, advice or support. He seemed to have the perception that she was going to save money by reducing her order to just food.
The thing is, membership, support, advice, and use of resources are free with any food order. So you’re really just paying for your food and you don’t have to do anything special to make it happen. The only additional things you would have to pay for (if you wanted or needed these things) would be blenders or books. But these are not required and you can place a food-only order and still have access to all the extras at no additional cost.
The cheapest way to buy Medifast food and meals: People often ask me for information on the “cheapest medifast dealer or seller”. Only the company itself sells its food. Now, there are some clinics, but not all of them have one of these nearby. Third-party websites and companies offer coupons, tips, and links to special offers, but they are not the sellers themselves. If someone claims this, I would highly doubt it and be reluctant to deal with them.
As with many things, the cheapest way to buy the meals and food on this diet is usually in bulk. The company offers two-week and monthly packages, but they will also allow you to purchase any of the groceries individually. However, if you buy the meals separately, you will pay more. A monthly package that gives you enough meals to eat five times a day for the entire month costs about $299 before coupons. And if you tried to buy that many meals individually, you would pay a lot more for them. Plus, buying a bundle often means you have access to and can use the best coupons, which brings me to my next point.
Effective use of Medifast coupons: I often tell people that they should never forget to use coupons. Why pay full price when you don’t have to, especially in this economy? This company is extremely generous with their coupons and discounts. Although the codes and offers usually change from month to month, there is always an opportunity to save money.
You can usually choose between some monetary discount on your order (usually more or around $50 off) or they will offer you free food (usually around 2-3 weeks). Most of the people will opt for discount coupons. I understand this. It feels good to save about twenty-five percent and put that $50 back in your pocket. But, in terms of monetary value, free food is worth more.
Whichever way you choose, always remember to enter your coupon code in the blank box at the bottom of the page. (You can cut and paste it). And make sure you’re using a valid coupon. When people tell me that their medifast coupon code didn’t work, it’s usually due to the fact that they’re using an old one.
