Packin'SMART Giveaway

A few weeks ago, I blogged about my new favorite baby accessory: the Packin’SMART container.  This thing really rocks!

I didn’t do it justice last time I talked about it.  I pretty much said, “Trust me, it’s awesome.” But now I’m going to tell you why it’s awesome!

For a 5 tier Packin’SMART, you’ll have 12 pieces: a top, a bottom, 5 compartments, and 5 inner lids.

The inner lids fit snuggly into the compartments so that spilling is at a minimal.  It also makes it really easy to dispense baby formula into a bottle.  Another plus?  It takes a while for little fingers to get the snack out, meaning snack time will last a while.  (But it’s easy enough to get food out that my kids didn’t get frustrated.)

The compartments all click together easily, so you can choose to use just one compartment with the bottom and lid or use all 5 compartments with the top and lid.

To open up a compartment, just push down on the thumbprint-size spot on the side and easily release the unit above.

I’m not explaining this well, am I?  Just watch this video and it’ll make more sense:

With the Packin’SMART I purchased, I was able to carry snacks for the two “big kids” and formula powder for Asa’s bottle…all in one container!

And for those of you who don’t have babies or little kids?  There are so many other great ways you can use it.

  • In the kitchen, you could easily store small amounts of your most used spices and keep them nearby.
  • Going outside for an ice cream sundae party?  Store all of your loose toppings in the Packin’SMART.
  • Have picky kids who only like red M&Ms?  Open up the containers and let them sort out all the colors.  Look!  That’s even a teaching game!
  • Paperclips and rubberbands taking over your desk?  Put them in the Packin’SMART and store in one of your desk drawers.
  • For those of you with little girls? Bows, twisties, and clippies.  Need I say more??
  • What crafter doesn’t have a loose assortment of tiny pieces that need a home?

So now you want one, don’t you?  Well, you’re in luck!  I have this one to give away:
