Pay It Forward

Share

From February 1 through March 31, 2012 only!

Been using your original Laptop Lunches bento box for years -- while eyeing the features of the newer Bento 2.0?

We know it’s hard to justify ditching your tried and true bento box since it’s still in great shape and works perfectly well, but have you considered paying it forward to someone who will love it as much as you do? If so, we’ve got two Pay It Forward options to choose from:

  1. Give your original Bento Box to a friend or co-worker, or donate it to a school or family shelter, and we’ll give you 10% off your next purchase. Simply use coupon code: PayItForward-10 when you place your order.
  1. Send us a photo that depicts how you’re paying it forward (or who you’re giving it to), and we’ll send you a coupon code for 20% off. Along with the discount, we’ll also throw in a free color-coordinated extra-large container for each Laptop Lunches Bento Box, Bento System, Bento Kit, Bento Pack, Lunch Date, and Power Lunch that you order. Email your photo to info@obentec.com with “Pay It Forward” in the subject line, and we’ll send the coupon code your way.

What’s the difference between the original bento box and the 2.0?

  • The Bento Set 2.0 has three lidded containers inside the outer container, and the original Bento Set has two.
  • The Bento Set 2.0 comes with all-stainless utensils. The original Bento Set utensils have plastic handles.
  • The Bento Set 2.0 is about 1/4-inch deeper than the original Bento Set.
  • Our Bento Buddies can be used inside the Bento Set 2.0 but they do not fit inside the original Bento Set.
  • Both the Bento Set 2.0 and the original Bento Set fit in the original carrying cases and in the new Bento 2.0 carrying cases. However, the Bento Set 2.0 does not fit in the original Bento Sleeve.

How do I know which version I have?

How can I pay it forward?

Paying it forward is simple and it feels good too! Here are some possibilities:

  • Pass it to a friend or co-worker.
  • Donate it to a school.
  • Give it to a family shelter.
  • Repurpose it by finding a new use for it.
