don't think its any more than 50p for packed lunch. good luck to all0
-
Since I work in a school I take a packed lunch so I guess I spend about £1.50? Maybe less. not sure!!
More packed lunch kit would be good tho please0 -
i only spend pennies on each lunch because i make sandwiches at home0
-
Approx 80p to £1 each for large packed lunch inc. drink.
Since a bottle of coke from vending machines at college/work would set us back a £1 a time, we either take our own (decanted from a 2 litre 'value cola' bottle into smaller,more portable bottles) or opt to drink 'corporation pop' (tap water)
Would love one of the snazzy packed lunch sets for DD - DH + I aren't proud and so use an assortment of recycled icecream/margarine tubs and recycled drink bottles for our packed lunches to save money on buying cling film, lunchboxes - but being an impressional teen,she would be appreciate something a bit upmarket for college
Good luck everyone!0 -
Spend around £3.00 on salad/oily fish etc & a couple of bits of fruit.
but usually take cereal on a morning(i work shifts)
company vending machine is a rip off so i dont bother with that!!0 -
I'd say about £2 - as I'm allergic to wheat and dairy and yeast it's really hard to find good food that is cheap and convenient, especially being a single mum.0
-
I spend about 80p - £1 on anything from homemade soup and homemade yoghurt or pitta bread with homemade houmous (spot the theme there).0
-
my two sons take homemade sandwiches yogurt
and a chocolate biscuit, costs about £2 per day:j0 -
It would be perfect for my OH - he usually has last nights leftovers shoved into a old ice cream box (because he is a plumber and isn't allowed to use our nice stuff) it would be wonderful if he could have his own lunchbox and for the food to be seperated out - soup in a box just doesn't work!!
As we use leftovers - probabaly spend less than 25p on lunch each day and I come home at lunch and have a slice of HM bread and jam!!0 -
I spend about £1.50 between 2 of us - retired now, so watching the pennies!'Better to ask a silly question than to make a silly mistake' Elliebee's Mum
