            I'm a stay at home mum with two small children and a hubby who is quite often in for lunch due to very strange work patterns so it varies considerably for me. On average though I would say it costs less than £2.00 a day to feed the whole family. I make almost everything. Today we had our main meal at lunch time - home made chicken nuggets, bacon, lettuce, homemade guacamole and crunchy garlic bread - well under £5.00! and really really filling too.0

            Homemade bread roll, celery sticks, fruit, water so usually 50p to a pound.
More if I fancy a treat!0 -

            I think l spend about £3 a day on lunch. With a new lunchbox l could do a pack up and save £15 a week minus ingredients etc.:T0

            I usually take leftovers or homemade soup so I would guess about 50p but on a bad day (like today) it's £1.55 for a Bacon Slice from Bakers Oven...bad girl!0

            I make my own sandwiches for work. It works out less than £1 and if I have pitta bought from Taj (5 pack x 4 for £1 that's only 5p per pitta!!)
