BUNDLE UP: THE ULTIMATE LITE FOOT GIFT GUIDE
Thanksgiving is officially over, so haters to the left! No longer will I be shamed for pre-emptively putting up my Christmas tree, hanging festive lights, dangling stockings from my fireplace and spiking the egg nog. Now that everyone is in on the fun, we can let the holiday cheer and good times roll.
While I like to dive headfirst into this special time of year, I understand that many people experience a variety of stressors around the holidays. But gift-giving should not be one of them. To help you on your quest for the perfect, eco-friendly presents, Lite Foot Company has curated a list of 11 sensational gift bundles that with delight your friends, family and Mother Earth this holiday season.
THE LITE FOOT BOX
Price: $50.00
Starting a new project or hobby can be difficult for anyone. Transitioning your home into an eco-friendly oasis is no different. So, Lite Foot founder, Katie Rodgers-Hubbard, is here to make your move a bit easier with the Lite Foot Sustainability Box. She curated an all-star cast of quality products to help you or your loved ones start the switch from single-use to long-lasting home goods. This is the perfect gift for someone who’s been looking for simple, yet effective ways to cut waste from their household.
STASHER HOLIDAY BUNDLE
Price: $40.00
If you have not experienced the glory of Stasher Bags, then, honey, TREAT YO SELF! These little baggies come in handy for all kinds of home storage. Not only are they great for packaging sandwiches for your lunch, but they can also double as Tupperware to store leftovers and cut produce. And their functions are not limited to foods. Use them to store your liquids for easy access to get through a TSA checkpoint on your next flight. Or package your personal care products in one on your next trip home for the holidays. In this eco-friendly trio, you’ll receive:
2 Sandwich Bag Size Stashers
1 Half-Gallon Size Stasher Bag
Environmental Impact: The average American family uses 500 plastic baggies every year. Stasher bags are made to last, each one keeping thousands of single-use plastics out of our oceans and landfills.
DISHWASHING BUNDLE
Price: $20.00
Rarely do I purchase anything that cannot go in the dishwasher. But Katie has informed me of a few items that should not end up in the machine: My cast iron skillet, wooden utensils, fancy knives, and my Lite Foot tumbler. For these delicate items, hand-washing is the way to go, and there’s no better dishwashing combo than the products provided in Lite Foot’s Dishwashing Bundle. You’ll receive:
1 Dish Block
1 Bamboo Soap Shelf
1 Casa Agave Dish Brush

THE CLEAN KITCHEN BUNDLE
Price: $30.00
We all know the holiday season is full of hosting family and friends for gatherings. With more people comes more messes. Lite Foot Company has your back with their Clean Kitchen Bundle. This gift set has everything you need to keep your home sparkling while eliminating the need for single-use items, like paper towels. With the Clean Kitchen Bundle, you’ll receive:
2 Swedish Dishcloths
1 Washable Sponge
1 6-pack of Unpaper Towels, all in surprise prints
Environmental Impact: The production of paper towels contributes to deforestation, global warming, and an overall waste issue. Paper towels that are thrown away result in over 250 million pounds of waste every year in the world.
Your standard kitchen sponge is made of plastic and synthetic fibers that pollute the waterways and aren't biodegradable, so they are just sitting in landfills all over the world.
BOOBIE BUNDLE
Price: $28.00
Lite Foot Company believes that all bodies are good bodies. But let’s be honest, boobs are the best! This holiday season, we are paying homage to all forms of breasts with the Boobie Bundle. With the purchase of this playful gift set, you’ll receive:
1 3-piece Eco-Friendly Reusable Straw Set, complete with metal straw, cleaning brush and a boobie-print canvas carrying pouch. (Perfect for when you are on-the-go and don’t want to use plastic straws throughout the day!)
1 3-pack Nip Slip Swedish Dishcloths

STASHER/BEESWAX BUNDLE
Price: $35.00
Since I’ve already gushed about the wonders of reusable Stasher Bags, it’s time for Beeswax Wraps to get a shout out. There is no kitchen product I despise more than plastic wrap. I feel like it was invented as a test of my intelligence and dexterity, and I bombed that exam. But I have been able to kick all that wasteful, frustrating plastic wrap to the curb with Beeswax Wraps! The variety pack works perfect for all my food-wrapping needs. The smaller sizes are great for topping small bowls or covering up a partially-chopped onion or bell pepper. The bigger wrap size covers serving dishes or larger produce. If you know of someone who struggles with sustainable food storage, this bundle is for them! With the Stasher/Beeswax Bundle, you’ll receive:
1 Abeego Food Wrap Variety Pack with 3 separately sized wraps
1 Stasher Stand-Up Bag
Environmental Impact: Last year, 5.3 million Americans used 10 or more rolls of plastic wrap each. Plastic wrap is rarely recycled because it clogs recycling machines.
The average American family uses 500 plastic baggies every year. Stasher bags are made to last, each one keeping thousands of single-use plastics out of our oceans and landfills.
SHAVING BUNDLES
Price: Legs-$55.00/Face-$70.00
Listen, I know what you are thinking. Those razors look like they were used as props on the set of Sweeny Todd. They appear to be pulled straight from an 1890’s barber shop. They could be used to slice cheese for your Christmas Eve charcutier board. I too was a skeptic and intimidated by the intensity of an Albatross razor. Not to mention I thought I needed some sort of soap or gel surrounding the blade to avoid razor burn. This is all a lie! So, give yourself or others the gift of sustainability by ditching plastic razors for good. Whether you’re a leg shaver or looking to clean up some facial hair, Lite Foot’s shaving bundles will have you feeling smooth and fresh for all your holiday parties.
LEG SHAVERS BUNDLE ($55.00):
1 Zero Waste Soap Dish
1 Clean Shave Soap
1 Albatross Flagship Butterfly Extra Long Razor (comes with 5 blades)

FACE SHAVERS BUNDLE ($70.00):
1 Albatross Flagship Butterfly Extra Long Razor (comes with 5 blades)
1 Tin of Shaving Soap-Eucalyptus Grove
1 Zero Waste Shaving Brush

SAVE YOUR GLASS BUNDLE
Price: $35.00
I am fortunate enough to have in-laws that can all kinds of goodies throughout the year. That also means I end up with a plethora of mason jars hanging around my house. Well, it’s time to put those glass containers to work with the attachments included with the Save Your Glass Bundle! With this gift set, you can go green by turning any regular mouth canning jar (not limited to mason jars) into a receptacle for products ranging from hand soaps and house cleaners to olive oil and flavored water. With this bundle, you’ll receive:
1 reCap Mason Jar Sprayer Lid
1 reCap Mason Jar Pump Dispenser
1 reCap Mason Jar ADAPTA Pour Spout Lid
1 reCap Mason Jar Lid POUR Cap with Fold Out Carry Loop
Environmental Impact: 552 million plastic bottles end up in U.S. landfills every year. Recycling plastic bottles produces carbon emissions that contribute to global warming. Every use of a pour spout with bulk filled products eliminates the need for one more single-use plastic bottle.
FARMER'S MARKET BUNDLE
Price: $25.00
I know the holiday season is typically known for comfort foods that range in shades from yellow and gold to a myriad of browns. (Turkey, ham, corn casserole, mashed potatoes, mac & cheese, dinner rolls, and cookies, just to name a few.) But no table would be complete without some delicious roasted veggies or a fresh salad. While the shopping process used to include piles of plastic produce sacks, Lite Foot Company put together this bundle to help you or a loved one say good-bye to single-use bags for good! With the Farmer’s Market Bundle, you’ll receive:
1 large Classic String Market Bag (with a long handle)
1 3-piece package of Medium Produce Bags to help reduce the use of single-use produce bags while you shop
1 Small Produce Bag
Environmental Impact—Did you know:
1 TRILLION plastic bags are used worldwide annually.
Plastic bags are not curbside recyclable.
They are made from fossil fuels.
The average life cycle of a plastic bag is one use for 10-20 minutes, and only 1 percent are returned to stores for recycling.
Every mesh sack and reusable produce bag eliminates the need for over 1000 single-use plastic bags.
PLAIN PRODUCTS BUNDLES
Price: Complete Bundle-$96.00/Shampoo and Conditioner-$48.00
I don’t mean to sound dramatic, but Fleabag had it right when she declared, “Hair is everything!” And skin care comes in at a close second. This year, Lite Foot Company would like to help you care for your hair, scalp and skin while creating a closed-loop system to eliminate waste in your home. Both gift bundles provide the recipient with quality presents from Plain Products. Once the items are empty, you can ship the containers back to Lite Foot Company for a refill.
