My shipment of 2010 MREs arrived!

Post by netboy541 » Wed Sep 22, 2010 11:41 pm

Hey guys! I ordered 4 cases of MREs from armygear.net the other day and they arrived, and to my excitement, they are the new menus!
Same price that they have always been, 89.99 for 2 cases. Ran me about 217 or so for 4 cases.

Here are some pictures of the motherload......

all 24 on the floor

Here's the MREs that I didn't have in my last run, and those where 08's....

menu 7
As you can see, these are the real deal, and are now packaged by Sopakco instead of Wornick.

The little lady and I couldn't resist, so we had to break open two of them. I'll post the reviews for the beef brisket and buffalo chicken in the reviews section. :mrgreen:

Until then........

Edit: Changed post...it appears that there are indeed 24 meals in 2 cases according to the AG site. I thought that the OP bought 4 cases and only saw 24 pictured :oops:
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this product netboy.

That's correct. 2 cases in 1 box, both menus. I got 4 cases, 2 boxes, 48 total. I only took pics of one box. My living room isn't that big! :mrgreen:

Great pics netboy! I always wondered about the MREs from that place. Seems like a pretty good deal, even though they're not in the original MRE box/case. Are they all 2010 menus? Or a mixture of 2008-2010. Last time I called them, they said they just ship out whatever they have on hand.

every one of them in both boxes was 2010 production.

I was as excited as a little school girl! :D :D :D

It looks like their prices have gone up to $99.95 for two cases. But still...with shipping that comes out to $60/case for me and that's not too bad if they're going to be 2010 MREs.

Raised their prices? Ya know, that's what I get for procrastinating on an MRE purchase. :cry: It's still a pretty good deal for 2010 MREs, but it was better when it was $10 cheaper.
