Spring Los Angeles Lunch Bags Review and Giveaway (closed)

Brown bagging your lunch when you work is always a great way to save some major dough. However, a lot of times, we make up excuses not to. I know a lot of us are so busy that we think we don't have the time to prepare. In addition to the lack of time there's also the concept of "brown bagging". It's ugly, it's boring, and you're just not interested. Not to mention it's just more waste for the environment.

If you do manage to bring the brown bag with you to work, you know by the time you make it to the break room, your brown bag has been squished by someone else's lunch. Yeah, I know you know what I'm talking about. You open that bag and what was once your sandwich is now something unrecognizable. You then find yourself getting your keys and heading to the closest restaurant.

Here's a way to motivate you to take your lunch without the dreary brown bag. It's a designer lunch tote from Spring Los Angeles! Spring Los Angeles lunch totes have cute and modern designs and are durable enough for everyday use! I had a chance to review one in the Retro Reborn print. In addition to keeping my food insulated, it held up quite nicely. Oh, and instead of my lunch getting squished, my Spring Los Angeles bag got special treatment and lots of compliments! Not one time did anyone put their lunch on top of mine! I have to say there was an excitement in bringing my lunch. I had an oober cute bag and every time I saw it, it just put a smile on my face!



Spring Los Angeles lunch totes are as tough as you. Each tote is made with quality materials and built to last. The secret to their superior temperature retention is a multi-layer insulation consisting of a thick, polyethylene foam layered between an outer fabric layer, a water-proof and leak-resistant lining, and material backing (makes for easy clean up). Together, these four layers create maximum insulation to keep hot items hot and cold items cool. It also provides for sturdy construction and keeps your food protected from bumps and bruises!

Spring Los Angeles
lunch totes are $19.95 and ship for $1. However, you can take advantage of their continued Black Friday sale and get the mystery tote for only $9.99 (through the end of today 11/30)! It is a mystery but you can't go wrong with Spring Los Angeles' cute and modern prints! What a great, practical, and affordable gift?! Also, my readers can take advantage of 15% off with promo code CBR15. So go ahead and get these fabulous lunch bags for yourself and those special people on your list. You deserve to add a bit of Spring to this holiday season!
