Out of Millions of Prime Day Deals, I Bought These 43%-Off Food Containers for Easier Meal Prep

A practical purchase for the win.

Whenever a sale like October Prime Day rolls around, I have two schools of thought: One,  buy something from my wishlist, and two, buy something practical. I try to do both, but this time around, I knew I desperately needed a really good food storage container set . And so, out of the millions of deals, I bought containers and am not mad about it. I’ve had my eye on the JoyJolt container set for far too long, and I couldn’t pass up the 43% discount.

This container set checks off so many of my boxes. First of all, they’re glass. I don’t exclusively buy glass containers , but I prefer to use glass for many things that stain or have strong odors like sauce and super-concentrated jams. I just enjoy the practicality of food storage containers, and these containers are no exception. They’re made with borosilicate glass that is microwave-, dishwasher-, and freezer-safe.

The next thing I love is their lids. Each BPA-free lid has a silicone gasket for a leakproof seal and four locking tabs that ensure everything stays airtight. You can’t beat the versatility of the set, either. I’ll finally have enough size options (and containers in general) for my meal prep . I love to precook grains, chop vegetables, and store leftovers in my refrigerator, so having an option for everything is essential. This set has 12 containers in three shapes: four round, four rectangular, and four square. Each shape has three different sizes to choose from. That means I get options anywhere from 11 ounces to 35 ounces.

Aside from just how well thought out the set is, I can’t ignore the countless five-star reviews, with shoppers calling them totally "airtight." In fact, the set has 11,200 perfect ratings from users who all call out how much they love its versatility and durability. “These are absolutely perfect,” writes one reviewer . “[They] keep things fresh, and the lids are tight,” they added. “I use these pretty much on a daily basis for everything from storing chopped-up veggies to hot quinoa right after cooking it,” a second person said , adding that the containers passed their liquid test when they turned them over and didn’t leak a drop. Shoppers also note that they’re “easy to clean,” calling out that they appreciate that the silicone gasket is removable.

You can shop the containers in a few accent colors, but I chose the black for something simple. I think today marks my official sign of adulthood because I’m truly excited that these containers are on the way. No more searching through my drawer for an option — I’ll have all the sizes I need, thanks to the 43% discount on JoyJolt’s container set.
