Rubbermaid LunchBlox Review

Recently we tried out the new Rubbermaid LunchBlox containers and I have to say, this is a pretty cool product! Now, I don't have a kid who is old enough for school and my husband can come home for lunch, so we didn't test out the LunchBlox in that respect, but I did find on our 23-hour trip that the LunchBlox made a nifty product for an on-the-road meal for my toddler! We filled it with a peanut butter sandwich, some fruits and veggies, dried cranberries, a cookie and a couple marshmallows. This made for a very quick and accessible meal on the road for my hungry son which meant fewer stops plus he was able to have a well-rounded, well-proportioned meal! This was SO much better than all the fast food stops we would have otherwise had. The LunchBlox is great because it has perfectly-sized containers for kids' meals and all the blocks snap together to make them less messy and helps them not to fall over! The tops stayed on tightly and I absolutely loved the fact that the LunchBlox comes with a snap-on freezer block for the bottom to keep the cold food cold! How convenient! This wouldn't be the ideal product for an adult's meal (at least for my husband haha) as it is rather small, but if you have children in school or are headed on a road trip (or even a picnic at the park,) the LunchBlox would be a great addition to your supply list!

As I mentioned earlier, the LunchBlox is very convenient in that it snaps together, and this feature also saves you space in your lunch box which means you will have enough room to add a drink, special treat or a sweet little note. The LunchBlox containers are the required portions for away-lunches which takes the guess-work out of filling up a hearty, healthy, well-portioned meal. Each package has a large container (ideal for sandwiches, meats, etc) as well as a medium container, two small containers and a Blue Ice™ pack. Right now, each package also has a little coupon booklet to help you with the cost of lunch items! The LunchBlox is dishwasher and freezer save and does not contain BPA so you can rest-assured that this is a great product that will be suit your family's needs and is safe!

Now, we tried the Sandwich kit, but there are several more kits available including a Salad kit and Entree kit and you can even purchase individual containers and a special lunch box that fits the LunchBlox perfectly! You will also find a $1.50 off printable coupon here to get you started! You can purchase the LunchBlox at rubbermaid.com, Target, Kmart, Kroger, Safeway, Bi-Lo, Winn-Dixie, HEB, other grocery stores, some Walmarts, and I have even seen the Sandwich kit in our Walgreens! The LunchBlox retails for around $12.99 but prices may vary by retailer. Don't forget that you can use your manufacture coupons and even store coupons (like percent off coupons, 5% off with your Target RED card, etc) to save even more! This is a great back-to-school or back-to-work item or a great gift for an on-the-go mom!

Sassy Steals Review

Have you heard of Sassy Steals? It is a great site where you can purchase discounted homemade items! They have new items each day from jewelry to clothing to crafty items for your house. I had the opportunity to purchase a few different items (earrings, necklace and chalkboard labels) and I am so happy with them! They came within the time promised too. The earrings were much bigger than I was picturing, but they were very cute. I LOVED LOVED LOVED the chalkboard labels and there were more than I was expecting which was great. They look fantastic all over my house and I love the ease of erasing what is written so I can keep it updated for cheap! The necklace also was larger than I was picturing, but I loved it!
