Win A Year’s Free Supply Of Box – #iLovebox

niallharbison

Since we launched our boxes they have been absolutely flying and we’ve fed 1000s of happy Dubliners and showcased some of the capital’s best restaurants to a whole new audience. We’ve been keeping supply tight to a few hundred boxes a week at the start as we want to make sure the standard is top notch and that we have the systems in place to help us feed 1000s of Dubliners a day in the near future. Today we want to give you the chance to win an incredible box related prize and get some banter going… Screen Shot 2014-05-11 at 16.31.39

The Prize

We’re not going to lie to you…this is a pretty insane prize. You’ll get a 100% free box for the next year. 52 Amazing free lunches from some of the best restaurants in the capital. The boxes are already pretty hard for people to get their hands on given their popularity and just watch the jealous faces of your work mates as you walk in week after week with a free amazing lunch. How will they cope? LovinBox777-16
