  • £2.49 Greggs chicken pesto baguette (which is excluded from the meal deal grr)
  • hi, new as a member, although have been getting the email for a couple of years... wish me luck, i'm very short of tupperware! (an in true frugal form, i picnic and pack up where ever i go! );)
    lunch usually costs me around £1.30
  • I tend to take a packed lunch with me everyday as i work at our local hospital and the sandwiches tend to be ridiculously over priced.
    I would say i spend on average about 70p to a pound a day. I also drink water which is free from the tap!!!!
  • I always take a packed lunch to work so I don't get tempted to sepnd money like my work mates. I work in a hospital and the food is tasteless butvery expensive. I think I spend very little a week, maybe £2.00?

    On good days, which is most days, I make my own sandwiches for work, under a pound. Plus dring water all day from works water cooler. On bad days £1.95 for a roll from Greggs. On really bad days around ££3-4.

    Proud to have dealt with my debts!
  • Count me in. Sounds perfect for cold evenings stuck in my lorry. Much cheaper to take a packed lunch than spend £3-4 on sandwiches or fast food, and healthier!
    • Fabulous offer! These goodies would be godsent; no more spillages or lunch fermenting!.
    • I take leftovers, both solid and liquids for my lunch some days and other times spend between £2 and £5 for lunch and drink.
  • I'm lucky, we have a microwave at work so I either take sandwiches or cook a bit extra for tea the night before and have that for lunch.
    Spend about 0-£1.

    I can spend up to £10 if I go to the shop on my break and buy lunch (sandwich/salad, crisps etc), but if I go to the staff canteen, I spend about £3. If I take my own lunch (I *really* need to do this all the time :) ), it's probably about £1.50...£2 if you include any extra chocolate/drinks I buy during the day
    We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment
  • Usually about £2.00 - £3.00

    Thanks for the tip!
