    Depends if Im in the shop or out diving, at the shop about £1 as tend to have stocks of spuds and cheese/small tins of beans lying about the place, out at a dive site anything from £2 to £6 according to the number of dives and how cold it is - my sausage and egg butty addiction thrives on cold days.:o
    It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

  • I usually spend about £2 on lunch unless having a girly day out shopping. Then we push the boat out and have a bar meal which works out quite expensive. Must be all the wine that bumps the price up. :T

    I spend about £1/£2 on lunch everyday.

    I work backshift so always in the house for lunch, usually have whatever is in the cupboard/fridge, sometimes buy a sandwich from somewhere if I am out and about.
