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

I like the Mario Batali one with the stripes. So cute! I also like Mario Batali. One of my favorite Iron Chefs. So sad that he’s gone.
I’d pack some of my favorite leftovers (and also a lunch I ate earlier this week):
-mashed potatoes (from Thanksgiving, of course) with a chunk of my frozen pesto stuffed in the middle to be mixed in after the reheating
-lemon and herb salmon leftover because I bought a 3-lb hunk of pink Omega-3 goodness
-raspberries (organic and purchased in bulk at Costco on a weekly basis)

My favorite lunch…. A big greek salad, with lots of feta cheese, an apple, and a skim milk latte (I guess that can’t go in the bag…)

These bags are very cute. I normally pack leftovers from dinner the night before. Baby carrots and Marie’s blue cheese dressing is also a favorite. I also pack a few cans of diet coke to get me through the day and the hour drive home.
