In my post the other day on seven easy ways to cut $1 or more out of your daily budget, I mentioned that packing your lunch on a daily basis is an excellent way to make huge impact on your budget. Brown-bagging it can get old and boring quickly though . . . until now.
Cosmoda sent me this adorable Elle Christy Lunch Bag, and it almost makes me wish I had an office job again just to be able to carry my lunch back and forth in it! I was surprised at how nice the quality is, and you’d totally never even guess it’s a lunch bag until you unzip it and see the insulated material inside. Both the interior and exterior wipe clean easily, and did I mention just how gosh darn cute it is?!?
Cosmoda wants to help you save money by packing your lunch and still look chic while doing it, so they’ve given me three adorable lunch bags to give away to three lucky Deal Seeking Mom readers!

Right now I’m loving Campbell’s Soup at Hand. I normally have it with a sandwich or a few peanut butter crackers and an apple.

What great lunch bags! I would pack my favorite lunch in it. A turkey and cheese sandwich, carrot sticks, and the all important and yummy pudding pack (chocolate of course).
Thanks for the opportunity to win such a stylish lunch bag- yay!

Typically, I just pack leftovers from the night before. But sometimes you have to get nostalgic & make the classic PB&J. And always bring in breakfast items- that’s the best way to start the day. Love these bags- so chic!

I too typically pack leftovers. However, I love to bring a grilled chicken salad with lots of extra veggies.

What an adorable bag! I pack lunch for work every day, so it would go to good use. Today’s special is a chicken salad!

I always pack leftover supper from the night before and add in an apple or banana and a small container of yogurt (that I flavored myself from the bigger container I buy from Aldi’s that is so much cheaper than buying the individual Yoplait yogurts from Wal-Mart). I also take a slice of homemade wheat bread for a snack. These bags are great! Thanks for doing giveaways!

The Mario messenger is adorable! I like to bring leftovers from the night before, or cheese and some french bread – yum. Today I have a yummy cheese sandwich~ it may not make it to lunch.

I typically prefer leftovers in my lunch bag also……especially if it’s meatloaf and potatoes! Add in a yogurt bar of some sort, and a vitamin water and I’m all set! Great contest!

As boring as it is, leftovers can work great for lunches with a little creativity. The office had leftover bagels at the end of a meeting yesterday that would have gotten thrown out, so I nabed those added some feta and SDT pesto and intant miday lunch/snack.
