new lunch box

Lately I've been feeling like my laptop lunchbox isn't meeting my lunch requirements. Sometimes the 1 cup, 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/2 cup thing doesn't work for me. And it's hard to fit lunch and an afternoon snack in there.

 

I was interested in their new larger 2.0 system, but in order to get it in red and black, I'd have to spend $45 (which includes a carry bag and water bottle that I don't need). I'd also have to pay $13 for some multi-sized bento buddies with lids so I can have extra options for wet foods and giant salads. Throw in $11 for shipping and we're up to $70. As much as I enjoy their product, I just couldn't do it. I need to save my money for food!

 

I've tried taking 4-5 ziploc containers to work for my breakfast, lunch and snack needs, but there just isn't that much room in the office fridge.

 

So I did some online research. I came across the Fit & Fresh Lunch on the Go and it looked like it would meet my needs. They sell them locally at Bed Bath and Beyond and Target which is nice if I need more containers. I bought two of them so I can use 0-4 of the small containers in one large container. It also has an ice pack (that blue thing) which can go in the middle of the box or snap into the outer lid for giant salads. So I can just leave it in my office and it should stay fairly cool.

 

Oh, and they're only $9 a set.
