Dear Customers,
Three years ago I started LunchBots out of my garage because I was looking for plastic-free lunch containers for my kids and couldn’t find them. What I thought would be a small online business quickly grew beyond my wildest expectations. People (like you!) were buying the Uno and Duo and spreading the word to their friends. Retailers were finding us online wanting to carry our products for their most health-conscious consumers.
LunchBots has grown every year since 2009 (and we recently moved into an office space!), but what I’m most proud of is that we’ve kept an estimated 10 million plastic baggies out of our landfills thanks to your business and support. As LunchBots has grown we’ve remained a small business at heart, dedicated to quality products, excellent customer service, and equally important, a mission to reduce environmental waste and improve health for everyone.
Our community inspires us to dream even bigger for the future. The feedback on our new products has been incredible. Customers love our pink Duo and purple Uno for the girls, our all stainless containers for teens and adults, and our unique Trios and Quads which are now top sellers. The fan email we receive keeps us focused on our mission and confirms that we are making an impact.
I am very excited about the future. Most of all I’m grateful to have your support as we move forward and strive to make an even bigger difference in reducing the use of plastic. None of this would have been possible without you.
Here’s to a great 2012!
Sincerely,
Jacqueline

Dear Costco, Why use plastic?
Dear Costco,
Loved your Kirkland brand toilet paper and have happily used it for many years. Today I bought your 36 pack same as always, and when I got home and opened it up I saw that each roll is now individually wrapped in plastic!
Why the change? Do you realize how wasteful this is? I can’t think of a single reason why you would make a switch from something that can be recycled to a material that will now add even more waste to our already full landfills.
I won’t buy this anymore from your store (hope millions of other people agree) and I ask you to PLEASE consider a change back to the paper wrappings or even better, no wrappers at all. They aren’t necessary.
Thank you for giving this serious consideration.
