I’ve never bought this one bag, but my mom has. I borrowed it for some time and loved that there was so much space and that it comes with cup holders
Lunch Cooler
Homemade Lunchables are one of my go-tos for packing lunch! I love that these are perfect for it! They come in such cute colors and are super sturdy for the price. They’re even dishwasher safe
Kakating Bento Snack Boxes 4-Pack 4 Compartment
This is another bento box I love! It was perfect to take back and forth to school! It fit perfectly in my Vera Bradley bag. The best part is the silverware, and that the sections have slots that can change size

BIC Cristal Xtra Smooth Ballpoint Pen, 10-Count
These tend to be a little bit of a splurge, but I don't think I'd have made it without them! They're the perfect amount of pigment and glide so smoothly

Paper Mate Clearpoint 0.7mm Mechanical Pencils
i will never go back to traditional sticky notes ever again! these are so perfect for note taking
