Thrive Market: Healthy Food Savings

Members of savings clubs like BJ's or Costco understand the benefits of paying an annual fee to access savings throughout the year. There are new types of discount memberships becoming available, including one for the health-conscious shopper. Thrive Market healthy food savings provide rare discounts on non-perishable items that most shoppers can only find at places like Whole Foods.

A one year member to Thrive Marketplace gives you access to discounts of up to 50% off retail on healthy foods to support your diet, including gluten free, paleo, raw food, vegetarian and vegan options. In addition to a wide variety of non-perishable food items that stock your pantry for less, you will also find certified bath, body and beauty items that help to keep toxin exposure down, vitamins, supplements and remedies to assist everyone in the house in staying healthy and vibrant, and household supplies and cleaning supplies that you can feel good about using everyday.

New members get an extra discount on their first order, and a free 30-day trial period to check things out (and make sure that it's a really good option).

Here are the basic features:
  1. Everyday savings of up to 50% off healthy food, beauty items, cleaning products and more.
  2. Free shipping on $49 or more.
  3. A guarantee that you will save at least the cost of the membership. If you don’t make your membership fee back in savings by the end of the year, they will automatically give you the difference in Thrive Market credit after you renew.
