Lunch It, Punch It - A personal reward system...

As I've said before, good product design doesn't only apply to products you buy - they can be systems or rules that positively impact your behavior as a "user." And here's one that fits that bill: Lunch It, Punch It cards are printable rewards cards for yourself - that is, punch the card each time you pack a lunch, and then "earn" the reward of going out for lunch (or some other reward you may want). It uses marketing techniques developed by and for business, but for personal improvement: you'll save money, eat healthier, and get more done at work. It's amazing what you can do when you're willing to trick your brain into doing it!

My Weight Watcher friends love this. Of course anyone could do this without a punch card, but it just is an added bonus to punch it and see your progress and get the reward! great motivator for packing healthy lunches, saving money and staying on plan. Wayne and I are adapting it for dinner.

Good stuff, Linda! I agree, having the card probably makes a good bit of difference to the endeavor. Hope you & Wayne are well!
