Bento snack and Round 2 @ Dillons

I just got a part time job so my Granny is coming over to watch the kiddos today and of course they will need a snack since I will not get home till after when dinner is normally ready, I made these in the new little bento that I bought at the $ General yesterday. I bought the cute little silicon squares on ebay a while back they are Wilton and fit PERFECT in the boxes!!!!
Snack- Left over Chicken lunch meat from the other day bento, Noah's Ark cheese cut outs, cucumbers, carrots, grapes, animal crackers and yogurt (the kids favorite!!)

And last night since the kids were not here I made a late night run to Dillon's and this is what I came home with for $10.XX I thought I would going to get $2.00 back for the yogurt but I bought the wrong one. Oh well still a good deal. And before anyone freaks we will not be keeping all of that canned food. But they were FREE and I will donate some and give some to my niece and nephew.

BENTOS!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had a lot of people asking me about Bentos and where the best place to buy them from. Well here you all go...........

When I first started getting into this I was looking at EBay but the shipping was going to cost as much as the items. So I kept looking and found this WONDERFUL site located in California (they ship FAST and not a lot of $$$) http://www.allthingsforsale.com/104-bento-box I have placed every order from them of a Friday and never fails the package is here Monday. Now that is what I'm talking about. lol

I also ordered the Sassy Box  from a website online but for the life of me I can not remember. Ive heard they are in the sale area (baby section) at Target for $2.98.

I also found these great boxes at the Dollar General store for $1.00, I just went and picked up 2 more for Mark and I. They say they are not dishwasher or Micro safe but Ive used them in both and no problems.

Another great place to look is amazon.com and use your swag bucks Amazon gift cards to get them for FREE!!

Also there are these http://www.easylunchboxes.com/ I have yet to order from them but I plan on doing so before Isabelle starts school.

Here is a list of sites I LOVE........

And the people only used it like 2 times the whole 2 years they had it. lol
