    I spend in the region of £4.50 to £6.00,

    There is a works food kiosk, supposedly subisidised, but the main meal comes out at about £4, but the quantity isn't fantastic and because Im there I also end up picking up a snack, flapjack/crisps and a coffee.

    Occasiionally the quality of food is so poor I end up gong to the local pub.

    200 days @ £5.00 a day = £1000 (ouch)
  • I tend to take sarnis or leftovers, but if not about £2.50 ish.

    I get lunch free when i work certain early shifts at work. Normally when at home I would spend £1.50 using up food that has been leftover.

    I am trying to get my daughter to make her own lunches and stop buying water! Grrrrrrr!
