-closed- PackIt Freezable Lunch Bag Giveaway and Review


Toss out your old style insulated lunch bags! There's a new product line of FREEZABLE lunch bags. They are PackIt. Created by moms for moms PackIt is a new innovative line of lunch bags offering the coolest new way to keep things cold.....very cold! Finally the solution to eating healthy on the go. The gel is actually integrated into the liner of the bag. Simply fold the bags and store them in the freezer until needed, pull them out, PackIt and GO. They keep food or drinks cold for up to 10 hours without added ice or gel packs. You can actually put a room temperature item in the bag and within the first hour it will drop the temp of the item 24 degrees. Actually "creating cold".

They go above and beyond just being a reusable bag! Because PackIt’s cooling system keeps food cold all day long, uneaten food comes home still fresh and goes back into the refrigerator. Reducing waste and saving you money!

This lunch bag is great! First of all it's adorable! Its extremely well made, nice thick material, is pretty large so no more squashing your lunches into your bag, and it folds up nice, neat and compact to store in your freezer. The PACKIt is PVC/lead free, non-toxic, earth safe and will keep food and contents cold for up to 10 hours! As soon as mine arrived, into the freezer it went over night. The next morning, I added a thing of ice water and a baggie with ham for my testing purposes. Then I sat it out on the counter all day, just like it would be sitting out at school for my daughter (well she would have more food that that, lol). I wanted to see how well this worked. I sat it out at 8am, and at 4 pm (8 hours later) it was still cold! The gel pacs weren't really frozen anymore, but they were cold, keeping the water and ham chilled. Normally I send a freezer ice pack in an insulated lunch bag, but those are never even just chilled when they get out of school, leaving any leftover food inedible. These are great, now they can eat whatever food is left on the way home!

  16. PackIt keeps its contents cold for up to 10 hours. That means leftovers that can go right back into the fridge. This reduces waste and saves you money. That’s a win-win.
