Get Organized and Go Green snackTAXI Giveaway!

Thank you for all your organization and preparation strategies for portion control. Can I tell you how good it felt this morning to just grab my containers of food and go! I was ready and out the door in no time, with gasp time to spare. The one thing that I am trying to reduce is the use of plastic baggies to “store” my many snacks I take to work. I attempt to use reusable containers as much as I can but these can get bulky to store in my very cute lunch box from Cool Totes 
I have found the perfect storage solution that is not only environmentally friendly, but extremely cute to accompany any lunch bag. This amazing solution is from the makers of snackTAXI.
snackTAXIs are a line of reusable bags for snacks and sandwiches in a variety of fun fabrics. They were created back in 2003 as a way to stem the tide of plastic Ziplock bags that flowed into our landfills.
They are made in a home-based workshop by local sewers. The company is committed to keeping their business local, and will never outsource their labor.
I was sent a waste-free lunch starter kit which contained a twice-as-nice napkin, sandwich-sack, and a snack-sack.
Are these not the cutest things ever. I love all the designs and colors. I use my red snack sack to store my almonds.
The question that I had about snackTaxi was how to clean them. Here is the answer.
Q. How do you care for snackTAXIs?
A. It’s anything goes when it comes to washing your snackTAXI. They can be machine washed (we recommend unscented detergent) and dried or simply rinsed with water and air dried. As with anything that gets washed, they will last longer with hand washing and air drying, but they are quite durable any way you wash them!
Another great fact that I found while reading the brochure I received with my set, is that snackTAXIs are a great alternative to plastic bags and wraps, especially when just one reusable bag has the potential to eliminate an average of 1000 plastic bags over its lifetime!
I will be using these every time I pack my lunch now! I just have to order more for my girls to use now

Thanks for doing this give-a-way! I really like the poppy parade design.
Hi! I really love the bird design! the snack bags are great. I can’t tell you how many plastic baggies I use for my snacks to bring to work, this would be awesome! thanks for the opportunity!
I really like the tea for two. Love these little bags.
I love the sandwich snack packs…as I pack my hubbies sandwich everyday in plastic wrap…would love one of these!
I just became a fan on facebook!
These are great – I generally use reusable containers, but find they aren’t the right shape/size for everything I take with me. I especially like the sandwich sacks.
My favourite designs are either the solid black or water spot brown. What can I say, I’d rather have a classic, solid colour vs funky pattern.
And you are already on my blog roll. Will be tweeting now!
You are already on my blogroll! I love the solid black!
SO cute!
I like the egg beaters!
