There's more to consider than just what supplies to buy this year (though we'll help with that too.)


SAVE UP TO 28%: As of Aug. 15, Stasher reusable food storage bags are on sale for up to 28% off at Amazon in a variety of sizes and colors — just in time for back to school season.


A new school year doesn't just bring new teachers, friends, supplies, and classes. It also brings an opportunity to make different choices. This year, you can make more environmentally-conscious decisions in your household by swapping your single-use sandwich bags for silicone ones that can go in the dishwasher.

Our favorite reusable food storage brand, Stasher, is having a back-to-school sale via Amazon. As of Aug. 15, you can save up to 28% on these sustainable bags in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors.

Stasher is a Shark Tank-famous brand known for its colorful, yet slightly expensive, bags and bowls. You may get a bit of sticker shock at first glance. However, if you take into account how much you spend on throw-away Ziploc baggies throughout the school year, the price is more justifiable. It also helps that prices are slashed by 20% or more on several options.

The bags are made from durable platinum silicone, which is heat resistant up to 425 degrees, food-safe, and free of BPA, latex, and phthalates. Beyond keeping your kids' lunches fresh and intact, Stasher bags can be used in the freezer, microwave, boiling water, and even the oven. Then just toss them in the dishwasher after each use. It might be a bit of a lifestyle change at first, but this swap can really make a difference.

Here are some of the best Stasher bag deals at Amazon during the back-to-school sale.
