I usually make my own food, so I wouldn't normally spend more than £1.50.
The days I don't have time to prepare something (once a week maybe) I'll spend about £3.50.0 -
On the days that I am not organised enough to have made my lunch, I probably spend around £3 on lunch at the work canteen - a fairly unappetising and unhealthy sandwich, a dodgy 'hot meal' served in an un-eco-friendly polystyrene carton or a "salad" (i.e. yesterday's leftover veg. smothered in cheap mayo!). Would like to stop this behaviour for the good of my health and the environment.0

Depending on the time of year, summer I usually have sandwiches, in the winter I'll take some soup. Most of the time I make my own soup and sandwiches and I have a yoghurt, probably averages out at about 80 -90p per lunch. Our canteen now offers free fruit, so that's a saving. We also have free tea and coffee, but I don't drink either so I take my own in or have water.;) Having the flask and containers would be great instead of my own tatty bowls and containers. Thank you:T0

This would be ideal for the wife and I as we try to take lunch from home as much as possible but it only happens once a week. We spend at least £3 - £5 per day on lunch. Hopefully this would encourage us to take lunch from home more often0

I go home most days, I live about 5mins away in the car, which means I probably use about 30/40p petrol each time I go home.
The cost of the food varies, but I would reckon average of £0.50 - 1.50 beans on toast or leftovers!
I have been planning on taking in lunches, but I do enjoy getting out of the office for the hour!0 -
I believe I spend about £3.45 each day but this varies on if made at home or not0
