Here at Made in a Pinch, our goal is always to help make family life a little easier, healthier, and a little happier for you by reducing stress in several different ways.
One of the ways that we help you to make healthier changes is by recommending products or services that help you live greener and empower you to create a more eco-friendly home (which also helps your wallet).
Further, we help you reduce stress, in part, by doing the research of products and services for you. We do the heavy lifting to save you time so that you can allocate that precious time to the things that really matter – your family and your home.
To that end, I want to introduce you to one of my very favorite services – the MightyFix!
What is the MightyFix?
MightyNest provides parents with the ability to learn about and buy safe, healthy and eco-friendly products. MightyNest believes that making simple changes can have a huge impact.
The MightyFix service is a monthly program through MightyNest that sends you an eco-friendly item each month to help you make one simple, easy green change in your life. It costs $10 a month, and the product you receive is always worth more than that.
There are no shipping charges for your MightyFix….just the $10 flat rate.
Also, you can add additional products to your monthly shipment if you want (MightyNest offers tons of options). You only pay for the additional product – you don't pay any shipping when you add on to your monthly shipment.
I have been a member for over a year and really love this program!
I love the suspense of waiting for my package and the surprise and joy of finding out what's inside when I open it!
Here's a demonstration of the types of products that MightyNest offers (there are SO many)!
A few of the products I have received from the MightyFix program include:
- metal straws
- reusable mesh produce bags
- Bee's Wrap reusable food wrap
- wool dryer balls
- Stasher reusable silicone snack “bag”
- spill-proof stainless steel containers, and more!
Why join the MightyFix program?
For years I have thought about going greener and reducing our household footprint. But I felt stuck and overwhelmed. Where to begin? Which eco-friendly products were going to work for my family? What should I get rid of first?
A friend of mine was the one who introduced me to this program. Since she is my “go to” authority on greener, cleaner living and I had been wanting to work towards more eco-friendly living, I decided that it was worth trying MightyFix. I have never looked back because I have been thrilled with every single shipment I have received.
The beauty of the MightyFix program is that I don't have to do the research and wonder about making the right choice. MightyFix helps me in so many ways:
- simplifies my life
- saves me time
- helps me have a more eco-friendly house
- saves me money in the long run
- is affordable!
How does buying more products save me money and time and help the environment?
Eco-friendly items help reduce waste because they are reusable. That also means that because I'm reusing the same products over and over again, I don't have to keep buying them. Buy one and done, as they say. Thus, buying and using eco-friendly items saves me money over time.
For example, metal drinking straws can replace plastic straws and be washed and reused forever. I will pay for the metal straws once, and that cost will be far cheaper than repeatedly buying (and throwing away) plastic straws.
My current favorite product
Since it's back to school time, I am back to packing lunches for 3 kids 5 days a week. MightyFix helps me there too! I cringe every time I think about using a plastic sandwich baggie. Remember that Stasher that I mentioned earlier? It's my new favorite.
Not only is it reusable, but it lasts for a really long time. The Stasher is also easy to clean, seals really well so things don't leak, and it doesn't add a weird smell or taste to the food.
It's worth every single penny several times over. I also love the size, which provides a ton of flexibility in what you can put in it (in other words, it isn't a tiny snack bag that holds 3 small crackers).
Join the program yourself for a special reduced price!
MightyFix has generously offered to give my Made in a Pinch readers a special discount to try the program yourself! I am so excited to be able to offer you the ability to get your first MightyFix shipment (an incredible Stasher just like mine) for only $3! (use code PINCHFIX if needed)
There is no commitment, and you have nothing to lose; I just want to help you live cleaner, cheaper and healthier! With school starting back up and the holidays around the corner, now is the time to start making those changes.
But don't just take my word about how amazing this program is. Try it yourself and watch MightyFix not only help you make school lunches your home more eco-friendly but also help save money!
Tell us below…what are some eco-friendly products you have been dying to try?
These are great products! I am especially fond of the glass bowls with locking lids but have several of the stainless steel bowls for storage as well. Love the bee’s wraps, too, especially great for sandwiches and baked goods. If you get a chance it would be great if you would share your post with us at Creatively Crafty (https://lifebeyondthekitchen.com/creatively-crafty-link-party-135/) We have many like minded participants who’d love to hear about MightyFix.
Hey Lydia! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! I love all the things you mentioned – they are so helpful! I will drop by the Creatively Crafty link party – thanks for the invite!
I’ve heard about this before and I was excited to try it. I think I postponed ordering the service and then I forgot. I and my family are in the process of going zero waste so this would be very useful to us. I’m not sure how worth it it is to get it every month. I am worried I will end up with a lot of things that I don’t use. It’s still worth a try for sure!
Hey Delia! It’s possible you may end up with an item here or there that you don’t use. I use every item I have received and love them. I figure if I receive something that I don’t need or already have, I can gift it to a friend or family member! I hope you’ll try it – if you do and find that the program isn’t for you, you can cancel at any time 🙂
