  • Perfect.

    I haven't exactly tried this exact package, however I have tried all the items that are in it. Darrell Lea are perfect in everyway, their confectionery & chocolate is smooth and tastes like chocolate, not like powdered milk (like some other brands).. We always buy Darrell Lea whenever we can.

  • Nothing is going to stand in my way.

    Just when you need that chocolate fix because your having a bad day at work, or your pulling all your hair out from the kids constantly yelling at each other... Darrell Lea comes to the rescue... The delicious chocolate that melts in your mouth... The sensation of mmmmm that if you had the choice you would eat the whole container/box. That is what I feel when I have Darrell Lea Chocolate!

  • ROCKLEA ROAD

    Well, well, well....I never knew there was chocolate out there I hadn't tried...til now! I'm not a fan of marshmellow, so don't ever buy Rocklea Road (or anything similar), but wow, I think I'll be adding it to my list. Nothing else to say!

    Just the licorice to try now...

  • What a fantastic review to be part of, it has been quite a while since I've had Darrell Lea chocolate. Firstly I was suprised by how heavy the bag was and that the products were full size, but most of all I had forgotten how good quality the chocolate was. The rocky road and orange choc balls were my favourite. The only thing I would change would be the licorice, I tend to think of it more as a tradtional father's day item. Overall I think this mother's day chocolate bag is great value for money.

  • I really loved my bag of goodies ;) loved everything in it even the licorice which I'm not a big fan of. I thought for $25 the bag was good value but I would agree with the other mums that if the portions were smaller, and the bag was $20 or even better marketing, $19.95, it might make it even more appealing for the children to get mum. Thank you for including me in this review, the chocolates were superb!

  • I thought this bag was brilliant there was something for the whole family to enjoy my kids and I went nuts over it,I have to agree that bringing it down to $20.00 would be a good idea and that there should be red licorice instead of the black. I am not a girly girl but something a bit brighter would be good,not the pastel colour that was used.I think it would be more eyecatching that way.overall it was great value for money and the whole family agrees that the chocolate was wonderful.

  • WOW! As soon as i picked up the Darrell Lea Mum's bag for 2011....I could smell nothing but 'DELICIOUS'. I have had a little taste of everything in the bag. The Soft Eating Licorice is to die for. The Milk Chocolate Rocklea Road is big enough to last a week. An Assorted Carton of Milk & Dark Chocolates...yummmo. The Scorched Almonds which i don't mormally like were devine & the Choc Orange Balls took me back to my childhood memory. This bag of is definitely worth every penny. It would cost almost $40 if bought separately. Every Mum deserves a treat like this once a year.

  • Well i am a HUGE fan of Darrel Lea! The BAG is GREAT esp when you can share it amongst your family!

    The rocky road is "chunky", however after cooling it in the fridge was easily sliced and served as a treat for am tea.

    Price.... hmmm.... I thought the $25 was great value! Looking at the cost of these individually got a big tick of approval from me!!!

    Love the nice simple bag however thought this could be smaller!

    Overall - thoroughly enjoyed!!!!!!!!

  • These are some of the best tasting treats I have had in a long while, the licorice in particular is the nicest I have ever tasted. Quality wise it is outstanding. I would have liked to see a bag of Darrell Lea jelly beans or other 'non-chocolate' item in there just for variety, maybe instead of the choc orange balls. I think if the bag had one less item and was say $20 I would buy one, it's the psychology of $25 and spending it on treats that seems like quite a lot.

Glad that they are still around as Australia LoVeS you Darrell Lea. Also wonderful to be able to purchase products in Big W, Woolies and Coles.

Darrell Lea is always YUMMY, however i think they do charge a bit too much for their gift bags. I would recommend these though as a quick last minute gift :)

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

    Reply

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • This is so helpful thank you so much for this entry! It was very helpful since I think we all need a side hustle in todays economy. Especially women who do parenting at the same time while working full-time, I appreciate you all and you are doing an amazing job!

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

    Reply

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.
