Lunch Order Wallets - Bakery Lunch Orders

Re-usable lunch order wallets are available from Stickybeaks Reusable Lunch Order Bags | Stickybeaks.  Wallets are $12.50 each, insulated wallets $14.50 and can be ordered by families direct from the supplier.

The wallets reduce the amount of waste from lunch orders as they eliminate the need for single use paper bags, envelopes and zip lock bags.

Made from non-woven polypropylene (like green shopping bags) they are durable and easy to clean, simply remove the base and wipe clean with a damp cloth.  The hygienic zippered pocket is to separate money from contact with food and clearly displays the child’s order and a transparent pocket displays name & class.  When not in use, the lunch wallet folds down into a convenient wallet and fastened closed with a velcro strap.  They come in eight binding colours to choose from.
