Packing lunches is an important way we save money at our house! My husband is finally back to work! Yay! Bella is in school all day, so I get up early to pack their lunches every day. This alone saves us a lot of money each week. If Travis and Bella were to eat out or in the cafeteria every day, we would be spending at least double what we are now on lunches. One problem with packing lunches, (well it doesn't have to be a problem) is all of the costly plastic baggies that go along with a packed lunch. The plastic baggies are pretty expensive and just end up being thrown away. I love using reusable sandwich and snack bags and I have found an awesome company that makes great reusable bags called Eco Lunch Gear! I received one sandwich wrap and one snack bag to review and I think they work great!
The sandwich wrap and snack bags are made of 100% organic cotton with a nylon liner. The nylon liner is nice because you can easily wipe it clean! The label is made large enough so that you can write your name on it! I wrote Bella's name on hers. She really enjoys using these cute reusable bags!
Another great thing about Eco Lunch Gear sandwich wraps and snack bags is that the velcro secures the bags tightly closed ensuring freshness! These bags can be machine washed and dried! Just make sure you fold in the velcro so that it doesn't attach to other items of clothing in the wash. I have used ours to send sandwiches, grapes, goldfish crackers, etc. in for Bella's lunch. She has less waste to throw away and I have less plastic baggies to buy! It's a win - win!
