I take in homemade sandwiches & snacks but I guess that equates to around £1.50 a day.I say what I like, I like what I say!0

I make my own packed lunch (as well as 3 more for the kids!), so around 50p, if that. If I was to let the 2 older ones have lunch at school I would be spending an extra £22 per week! Needless to say, school canteen is a treat (and occasional bribe!)."A bank is a place that will lend you money if you can prove that you don't need it." :wall:

I don't spend more than a couple of pounds, because I eat lunch at home and make it myself.0

Depends
I used to buy lunch everyday and it would cost about £3.50, too much.
Now i have started taking it from home, about £1, cupa soup, roll and yoghurt. Also got a jar of options in my desk drawer!
So less than a pound unless we eat out at the noodle bar which is £5.90 for a meal and drink!2009 Comping - 2x Superbowl Superbash tickets, body butter, easter hamper!:j0 -
Another Lurker here!
Currently spend £2.35 for a sachet of soup or milkshake for Lunch, as on [strike]horrible[/strike] Lighter Life Diet! (Not v. MoneySaving....cost £66.00 per week!) :mad:
(However bit of an improvement on previous £4 - £5 spend in Canteen per day! :eek: )
When start eating normal foods again, hope to get costs down a bit more, as have a freezer full of reduced goodies; which need scoffing!0 -
Zero spent for me! I make my own lunch0
-
I spend about £2.50, on days when there's no leftovers from the night before
Yay for freebies0 -
Never really given this much thought before.
As I am at home and try to eat healthily, I guess around the £1 mark is what I spend.0 -
Tea is 65p and the rest depends on what I bring with me and whether I buy a flapjack (70p!!) but between £1.50 and £2.00 I would imagine.0
