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!
Mario Batali Messenger Lunch Bag Elle Brittany Lunch Bag Mario Batali Satchel Lunch Bag

Those bags are too cute! My favorite lunch is a pita bread sandwich stuffed with cucumbers and low-fat cottage cheese (try it, it’s delicious). I’ll throw in a piece of fruit and a jello cup to round things out. If I can’t find good pita bread, I go for tomato and cream cheese (also delicious!) on whole wheat bread. Sadly, these lunches are usually special treats and most often I find myself taking leftovers.

In the Elle Brittany bag I’d pack a small thermos of Italian Wedding soup and some fresh homemade wheat bread, then for dessert I’d pack a small container of yogurt and fresh berries. I’d also stick a granola bar and a small bag of cashews in for snacks.

I have a wonderful husband who packs my lunch for me, so he would probably pack me a yogurt, banana, apple, granola bar and a big thing of water!
