Fill Your Own - Review & Giveaway - ENDED

So as you know I am trying to be more eco friendly and teach my kids to be more eco friendly in the process.  We have switched to reusable lunch bags, reusable shopping bags, and reusable water bottles.

We received a couple back when I was doing my Back 2 Blogging Bash adn we are in love with the resuable water bottles now, the problem is sometimes they are dirty or most times Lee forgets them at work lol and then I am stuck without one the next day.  Thanks to Fill Your Own, Lee and I each have two water bottles to use.  He received one called Hanging Out, valued at $25.95 cdn, and I got one called Don't Be Koi, valued at $25.95 cdn, each pictured below

Of course when I was given this chance to do the review my first question was, how many bottles can we choose to review.  I was told that since Fill Your Own wants to get everyone to switch to reusable water bottles I could choose one for each member of my house, my kids were ecstatic to hear that they got to choose their own water bottles and the older two boys chose their bottles with extreme care.  Blake picked one called Bamboo Zen, valued at $28.95 cdn, Chase chose Burrard Boating, valued at $25.95 cdn, Maddisyn got a very cute Butterflies one, valued at $22.95 cdn and we choose one for Holden called Puddle Jumpers, valued at $19.95 cdn.  I know Holden is a bit young but in a month or two he will start wanting to use it because the other kids are and I wanted him to have one as well.  We love these bottles, they are great and stand up to the abuse my 8 and 10 year old put them through when hauling them back and forth to school and outside to play.  They are easy to wash out with a wide enough mouth, they are leak proof and while my kids love the sports lid my husband and Maddisyn love the straw lid.  I have pictured all that the kisd received below here in the order mention.

Fill Your Own is a company that started with a birthday wish, Annettes husband told her that for his birthday he wanted their household to be greener and not use disposable plastic water bottles.  He wanted to know if she could find them some water bottles to refill on their own.  She looked at all different kinds of bottles, glass, aluminum and stainless steel.  She liked aspects of each bottle but not one of them had everything they are looking for.  Her husband said "you can do better", so she pondered said statement.

The following was taken from the site:

A week later, Fill Your Own Inc was born. We wanted practical every-day-use water bottles that were also eco-friendly, healthy and safe. We designed our bottles with our 4-year-old daughter in mind which meant quality was very important. And of course, the caps had to be leak proof. Unknowingly, our daughter tested this for us by sleeping with the prototype bottle and yes, her bed was completely dry in the morning.

We also wanted being 'green' to be fun and stylish - we added beautiful artwork to the exterior of our water bottles. Whether for kids or adults, our four different bottle sizes and three different caps are perfect for everyone. We are very proud of our bottles and want to add them to your lifestyle.
