Ladies Who Lunch Giveaway: Mario Batali or Elle Lunch Bag

by

Elle Christy Lunch BagIn 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!

    These are adorable and might I add..FASHIONABLE! I save money by making my own uncrustables for my kids lunch and I would get to pack my own if I won. I’d be the ‘cool’ one at work.

  5. Carrie

    My favorite lunch to pack is the simplest…..PB and J, with yogurt, carrots, and some kind of chocolate goodie!

  7. Susan Murphy

    These are super cute! Much more stylish than my recycled brown bags that I typically use :) I pack egg or tuna salad, yogurt, fruit, pretzels and sometimes a cookie if we have any. Nothing fancy but it sure is cheaper than going out every day! One of these bags would definitely kick my lunch up a notch!

    I just found out this week that I am diabetic so I will begin carrying my lunch every day instead of a couple of times a week. I usually bring either a chicken sandwich or turkey sandwich and a cup of fruit. A dessert was usually in there as well but not any more well there will be just a sugar free one. LOL I really love these totes.

    Thanks so much!

  11. cris

    pancakes!!! yes, i did say pancakes for lunch and not for breakfast and a close second is a wrap with bacon, lettuce , tomato and cheese.

    my lunch would look so dressed up in one of them lunch bags!

    thanks for sharing!

  12. charissa

    I usually bring leftovers or a salad to work. Those totes are so trendy! I’d probably care my lunch more often with something so fashionable to carry it in. I just stumbled accross your site…I’ll be back more with hot giveaways like this :)

    Hi, I’d pack a Turkey sandwich on whole wheat, my daily apple w/apple slicer, water and a small bag of Honey Barbeque Chips! Yum!! :) I would love to win one of these lunch bags as the one I have my zipper broke so I def need a new one!!

  18. Jeanine

    I would make sure to cook extras for dinner just so that I’d have leftovers to take in this great bag.

  19. Kellie F.

    I would pack- almonds, cottage cheese, lettuce salad, a bottle of water and Diet Dr. Pepper. It’s my new healthy lunch for the week. I plan a lunch for the week and buy all the items each weekend, and then I bring a lunch 4 out of 5 days. The other day is a restaurant day to treat myself!

  20. disco

    I would pack peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (cause nothing travels as well as pbj) and some type of gut warming soup/stew/chili.

  22. Melinda Frometa

    Buying lunch on a daily basis with today’s financial and economic crisis is not an option for me. I pack my oatmeal for my morning meals, snacks suck as cheese, yogurts or fruits and for lunch everyday is something different. Typically left over food from the previous nights dinner, if not a ham and cheeses sandwich or turkey sandwich. When I pack a light lunch I have to pack a few snack’s to keep my appetite full. This lunch bag will be a great gift for me because I currently use my sons Sponge bob lunch bags.

    To a Great Lunch!
    Regards,
    Melinda Frometa

    I would pack all my health nut foods in it :) Fruit, veggies, and all whole foods that I crave. Of course water too! That way I wouldn’t clog my arteries or checking account.

  26. Michelle Bryson

    Love the satchel bag. My lunch choice would be spinach salad with walnuts, cranberries and maybe grilled chicken and paul newman’s light raspberry and walnut dressing and a vanilla yogurt.

  27. Eryn

    I would pack a variety of things, I have to snack all the time or my blood sugar bottoms out. Yay hypoglycemia! Nothing like acting drunk at your child’s school! We practice the “Waste Free Lunch” program, so this would help me do that in style!
