Back to School: TerraCycle Review and Giveaway

Back to School is upon us and that means backpacks, notebooks and lunchboxes!

TerraCycle makes fun, functional, unique, eco-friendly and affordable products from a wide variety of waste and non-recyclable materials, including juice pouches, , candy wrappers, plastic bags and much more.

The denim messenger bag from TerraCycle is functional, durable and stylish! It also doubles as the perfect laptop case! This bag is made from scrap denim NOT old jeans.  


Maybe my denim messenger bag was made from the scraps from a pair of Juicy Couture jeans... so now my bag is stylin'! 

The variety of eco-friendly, recycled products that TerraCycle offers is truly amazing!  Everything from back to school, home and garden, pets, home and office and more. 
 
Back to School items include notebooks, backpacks, pencil pouches and binders made from fun product packaging including Capri Sun, Lunchables, Kool-Aid and Starburst!  

A couple of our favorites are the Doritos spiral notebook and the cookie wrapper binder.  In fact, my son and daughter had a difficult time deciding which were their favorites.  My daughter also said that she wishes she could have ALL of them!

These products are as unique as your child!

TerraCycle products are available at a wide range of major retailers including WalMart and Target as well as online.




WIN IT:

 ONE lucky Being Frugal and Making it Work reader is going to receive a TerraCycle Spiral Notebook - Frito Lay 


Mandatory Entry:

Visit TerraCycle and tell me something that you learned.




This giveaway will end at 11:59 pm EST on Monday September 12th

This giveaway is open to US residents only. The winner will be chosen using Random.org, with the winner will be notified by e-mail. Please make sure I have a way to contact you. You can leave your email, or link to your blog site. The winner will have 48 hours to respond, if there is no response another winner will be chosen.



**I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free.  Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and/or believe will be a good fit for my readers.  The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own.  Results may vary.  I was not compensated in any other way for this review.  The generous sponsor of this giveaway will mail the prize directly to the winner.

    Terracycle's goal is to eliminate the idea of waste by creating collection and solution systems for anything that today must be sent to a landfill.
