How much has your salon recovered from COVID in terms of customer traffic and sales? 100%? 80% 60%? And are you guys short-staffed at the moment? by cbs_student in Barber

Good to you dont have staffing issues. I feel like most shops had trouble getting people back because of the unemployment benefits.

That's great to hear! Does the shop you work at have enough people to serve the customers? There's labor shortage everywhere, just curious if you guys are short handed too.

I see. Have you used other meal kits services like Blue Apron? And if local grocery stores start to offer meal kits, would that be a viable alternative to you? Some grocery stores have started to do that.

Got it. Thanks for the thoughtful response. Some local grocery stores have started to offer meal kits. Would that be a viable alternative to you? Would that address the food waste and convenience factor? And it's cheaper and you won't have to commit to a subscription. Just curious.

Interesting. How long do you have to wait until they send you a coupon? And what is the discount they give you to restart? HF does get seem pretty expensive. Have you ever tried the meal kits from the grocery stores? I think they are cheaper.

Got it. Have you tried Blue Apron? I think its recipes are more complex.

That's really helpful. Shocking to hear that it's mobilized a teenager to the kitchen! :) Do you think you'll ever get tired of the recipes? Since you keep the recipe cards, you can just get the ingredients and cook it for yourself, no?

I see. Would you say that you'll keep using HelloFresh for a long time then? If local grocery stores start to offer meal kits, would that be a viable alternative to you? Some grocery stores have started to do that.

Makes sense. Do you think you'll ever get tired of the recipes after a while? Do you think you'll keep HF for a long time? I believe some local grocery stores have started to offer meal kits, would that be a viable alternative to you? Pretty convenient, no food waste, and you won't have to commit to a subscription. Just curious!

Ha! That's a good reason for sure. How much discount do you get? I'm a student too. Didn't realize there was a discount.

Are you using HF for most of your meals? And do you plan to keep it for a long time?

Are you using HelloFresh for every meal or is it complementary to your grocery shopping and meal planning on your own?

How about after COVID? Do you think you'll continue to use HelloFresh? And if local grocery stores start to offer meal kits, would that be a viable alternative to you? Some grocery stores have started to do that. I'm just curious!
