Approx 50p, as I am at home all day after being made redundant. Would be nice to have shiny new lunch box for when I get a new job.0

What's this about?
I have an idea that lunch costs my wife around £3.50 per day If i could convince her to take a pack up it might make my DLA go further!
You know what i bet she has a coffee too and whats that cost? £1.99 So i bet its more like £5.49 per day on lunch!! OMG HELP lol
Sometimes i feel lucky to be housebound I don't have to think about the cost of the world outside LMAO
On a more serious note thank you to who ever reads this and good luck

I guess I spend about £1.50 - packed lunch but on the rare occasions I'm out from work then it's about £50

I usually spend around £1 - £1.50. I make my own sandwich, or take soup and bread plus a piece of fruit and a chocolate snack.
The chiller would be handy for keeping everything cool, as i work in a warm office and have a late lunch break, so my lunch is usually not as fresh as it could be!0 -
I use home made bread for sandwiches and home grown salads. I guess with other fillings and a drink lunch would come to maybe £1.50.0
