Fab Freebie: Eat Bright

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries.***

This week we’re keeping the eco-friendly theme going with a freebie from Bright and Bold. They’re a great online resource for all sorts of green home wares, including the much-loved Envirosax bags and other items like jewelry and gifts. Plus, everything on the site ships to the US for free (our favorite four letter word), so you gotta give it them for making the world a happier place.

Bright And Bold Logo

This week we’re teaming up with Bright and Bold to offer up some earth-friendly products in a lunch-themed giveaway (shouldn’t more things in life be lunch-themed?). Three people can comment to win the perfect tools for a no-waste midday meal: their very own Klean Kanteen and a reusable Fresh Snack Pack bag. You’ve heard us rave about Klean Kanteens before (check it out here and here) and they’re consistently ranked as some of the best reusable, stainless steel bottles out there because they’re non-leaching and bpa-free. Which explains why we currently own three of them (only two are pictured because I keep one at work, so Burger’s filling in as an honorary member of the Klean Kanteen gang).

Bright Bold Kanteens

Along with the reusable water bottles, our trio of  winners will also score the Fresh Snack Pack bags which are a great reusable alternative to the traditional Ziploc disposable sandwich bags. They’re made of food safe, nontoxic, PVC-free, Pthalate-free plastic that’s easy to clean and it even folds out to make a placemat. So you no longer have to worry about getting mustard on your latest work assignment (or am I the only one who does that?).

Bright Bold Prizes

Here are this week’s entry details:

  • PRIZE: A reusable lunch kit from Bright and Bold (a 27oz Klean Kanteen in your color of choice & a Fresh Snack Pack of sandwich-sized lunch bags- valued at $34)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’LL EAT BRIGHT” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: Tell us your favorite go-to option for lunch? Grabbing a bite at a local restaurant? Indulging in last night’s leftovers? A classic PB&J?
  • CONTEST CLOSES: Wednesday, August 12th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three
  • PRIZE SHIPS: USA and our northern neighbors in Canada
  • THE USUAL: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner(s) will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Until then, happy lunching…

    I’LL EAT BRIGHT….

    My usual work lunch is a sandwich, pretzels and a little yogurt or jello pudding cup. Not much different from what I ate every day in junior high & high school. Some days it’s gets exciting and I’ll have a hot pocket. wooooo.

    I bring my lunch to work every day. Nothing exciting, sadly. Frozen dinners or leftovers. My boyfriend is the best and makes my lunch for me every night and puts it in the fridge so all I have to do is grab it and go :)

    My bosses like to go out for lunch and are amazed that I can bring mine everyday like clockwork.

    I am a high school Art teacher, and take my lunch to school everyday. My husband is a chef and makes my lunch for me every morning before work. It hurts his feelings that I don’t want something “fancy”, but a turkey sandwich or chicken salad and an apple make me very happy!

    This would be a great wedding gift for my brother-in-law and his soon to be wife. They live in Brooklyn and are eco conscious and trendy.
    They have traveled the world and this would be a great addition to their gear.

    My favorite go-to lunch is leftovers! Yum.

    As a busy mom to 2 adorable boys, my lunch ends up being whatever they didn’t eat. Usually a half eaten peice of string cheese, some smooshed up grapes, and some soggy chicken nuggets that were dipped in their milk. Appetizing right?

    I am a major fan of variations on the chili theme. Right now, it is white bean/chicken/tomatillo chili. Next week, who knows?

    Just found your blog, and am looking at buying a house in the next few years. You two are very inspiring! You have a great, balanced approach to making things, workable, easy and affordable. I’ll be back!

    My go-to lunch (or any other meal of the day, for that matter) is a good bowl of cereal and milk. Simple and easy. The most difficult part is choosing which goes first… the cereal, or the milk?!

    “I’LL EAT BRIGHT” I love to eat last nights left overs or make myself a sandwich on homemade bread. I never eat out for lunch because it is such a waste of money and my homemade meals are cheaper, taste better and are way better for me! I love the reusable bag and always use water bottles but I just lost mine!

    I would love to have a klean kanteen and bag. My goal this year is not to use the packaged water bottles, but instead use a klean kanteen to fill up at the water hole.
    Since I take my lunch everyday, a bag would be awesome too.

    I am an elementary teacher and I barely see the light of day before 3:30 p.m. and the smell wafting up from the cafeteria is rarely enticing. I bring my lunch every day and love it when I have tasty leftovers from a great Thai dinner or am equally pleased with my turkey sandwich on fresh pugliesi and a donut peach. Yum!
