F'ing Bento Boxes

My advice? DO NOT PAY $40 for a Bento box.

Find your local Chinese market, and check if they have it - I found some in Markham at the Pacific Mall. They were between $8-$10.

In Mississauga, Karen, there might be some at the Chinatown on Dundas.

Good point - I was thinking of checking at Yuan Ming, the huge Chinese Market close to here.

I went into my Solutions Store in Oakville and they had no idea on what i was talking about.  I would love to get one, because i am a lunch bag junkie...i keep buying new ones that come out.  The one I have now is a freezer lunch bag.  LIke the lunch bag without the separate freezer compartment.  Works really well.

Silly question, but where abouts on Dundas in Mississauga is Chinatown?

I wouldn't pay those prices either for something that isn't even insulated.  I have a great variety of cheap (yep that's me), ziplock containers as well as the odd dollar store ones that I bring for my lunches, but would definitely use an insulated bag if I didn't have a fridge.  They are cute though.

restaurant suppliers like nella or call the cooking colleges and ask them if they sell them or if they can direct you in the right way.

They had them at the Bay over Christmas, look in the lunch kit and water bottle area.

I wanted to buy one for myself but I don't have to pack lunches, and I am trying to downsize for our move into a 2 bedroom condo this summer.
