Update: This giveaway is now closed.
Congrats to Steph (sjhills_05@…)
Look for an email from me soon!
Even though the school year is over, there will still be plenty of opportunities to pack picnic lunches, snacks for an afternoon away from home, and sack lunches for anyone who works year round.
And I don’t know about you, but even in the summer months, we go through our fair share of plastic lunch/snack bags. Since we always pack sack lunches, there are many days when we will each use 3 or 4 plastic baggies… and then throw them away when we’re finished eating.
Not only are those bags an added expense on our grocery budget, they aren’t great for the landfills either.
So I was thrilled when I came across AgainBags — a company that specializes in hand-made (in the USA) reusable lunch and snack bags. But not just any reusable lunch/snack bags… the AgainBags come in a variety of styles and sizes, they are dishwasher and washing machine safe, they are lead-free, phthalate-free, BPA-free, AND they come in fabulous colors and patterns {see below}!
I’m still not sure why I never thought of using reusable sandwich and snack bags — especially since I’ve used reusable lunch bags and water bottles for many years.
First time for everything I suppose 🙂
I’m excited to start using the AgainBags… and even more excited that Jenn {the owner} is offering a fabulous giveaway package this weekend only!
As you can see from the photos, these bags are fantastic for sandwiches, wraps, fruits, veggies, cookies, bars, chips, pretzels, crackers, and pretty much any other food you want to carry with you.

In the summer, I always take organic grapes with me everywhere I go. I also have two young children (9 and nine months!) so I have to have snacks on hand all the time.

I forgot to mention, I like you on Facebook (and Pinterest too) and (I am not just saying this to win, really) you are my #1 favorite organizing blogger!!! Thanks for all the realistic tips on bringing order into my mixed up daily life.

We always have some sort of fruit. Our daughter is 3 and she loves watermelon, blueberries and grapes!

We always have almonds on hand. They are yummy and nutritious.
Misty says
My husband and I just moved into our new home and we are both 5 miles from home, so we had to start packing our lunches. It’s essential that we always have carrot sticks and pretzels on hand and we pack these with ranch dressing to dunk them into!
Carrie N. says
I love this idea. I made major changes to my diet a few months ago, and I always bring my own lunches to work, I feel guilty about the number of baggies I use. I love the idea of a green way to “bag” up my snacks.

Popcorn sometimes, but cheese and crackers- always!

I made it a priority to use reusable bags this year for my kids’ lunch boxes. It worked out really well but I need a few more bags! I keep baby carrots on hand at all times!

Bethany Valente says
I always seem to keep bricks of cheese and different types of crackers on sale. I often stock up on cheese when it goes on sale because I can use it with so many snacks to keep it different. Thank you for this opportunity and all of your hard work on here!
Brandi G says
I love reusable bags! Snacks we always have on had are Babybel cheeses, Goldfish crackers, Cheese-its and granola bars. I always try to buy big bags (more economical) and just portion them out.
Tori says
Love this idea!!!! We always keep almonds on hand and are also trying to limit our plastic bag usage. Plus we are also ‘phasing’ out our plastic containers and replacing them with glass ones.
Lisa Christensen says
I always keep lots of fruit in the house for snacking on; but M&M’s are a big favorite.
Brittany says
We always keep both crackers and fruit on hand.
