One of my many New Years resolutions was to save more money. One of the ways my husband and I are doing this is by bringing our own lunches to work rather than buying out. We pack different types of food each week be it leftovers or various kinds of sandwiches so that we don’t get tired of the same thing everyday. However, it never fails that we no sooner get a sandwich made up only to find out we are out of baggies which in turn means taking an unnecessary trip to the store. Of course, it also means spending more money which defeats the purpose of trying to save. Fortunately, I found SnackTAXI! SnackTAXI is a wonderful company that has been manufacturing the original reusable bags for snacks and sandwiches since 2003.
SnackTAXI
We chose a reusable sandwich bag for review and I honestly love it! It measures 7.5″W x 6″H and has a nice secure velcro closer. My husband was also pleased to learn first hand that it could hold a hearty sandwich without busting at the seams. It is also very bright which for me is good because I always seem to misplace things. In the event that I forget to put it back in my lunch tote to take home I can easily find it (that sounds silly but I guarantee it will happen sooner than later). I found that cleaning these bags were just as simple as using them. Each bag is coated with nylon so a damp cloth works well for cleaning them out. They can also be put into the washing machine in the event that they got really messy.
Make Your Own Taxi Snack Sacks
In addition to manufacturing reusable bags for snacks and sandwiches, SnackTAXI also manufacturers reusable produce-sacks, twice-as-nice-napkins, gluten free-sacks and lunch-sacks. What is cool about SnackTAXI is they offer fabric choices that are suitable for the entire family and add new fabric every month. Of course if you don’t find a print that catches your eye SnackTAXI offers a set of six make-your-own-taxi snack-sacks. Each of these products are great alternatives to plastic bags and wrappers. Did you know that just one reusable bag has the potential to eliminate an average of 1000 plastic bags over a lifetime?
Most of the sandwich-sacks are priced at $8.95 and the snack-sacks run about $6.95. In my opinion, this is a small price to pay when you consider how much plastic baggies cost over time. I also believe that the opportunity to reduce the amount of trash in the environment is priceless! All of SnackTAXI’s products can be purchased directly online at snacktaxi.com as well as a number of retailers throughout the United States and Canada.
