I always take sandwiches, so I spend around 50 p per day.
ThanksGoing down the Oteley Road to see the Shrewsbury aces! :T0 -

Well I take my own pack up, but spend more than most on here who do. I take something like a rice/pasta salad or leftovers from the night before, so that's maybe 50p as I put peppers, corn, etc. in. Then a Mullerlight yogurt (50p) and three pieces of fruit. Checked Tesco online and they reckon 20p for an apple and 15p for a banana, plus probably another 20-30p for grapes or plums or something to be my third bit. And I also have either Babybel or cheese triangles, so 30p or so for that. So all in all I'm looking at £2 per day for my packup. I have an active job, so get hungry and am also doing Slimming World, hence the Mullerlights and cheese!0

Probably spend around 75p -1.00 in my lunchbox. But then I got my two son's school lunchboxes and my husbands as well so it all adds up...0

No more than £2.00 per day.0

I only spend about 70p to £1 on lunch as it is always home-prepared. I don't understand why anyone wants to spend more just to save getting up a few minutes earlier! (Plus I know exactly what has gone into my lunch)0

Prob spend about £4 -£5 a day. Far too much but not organised enough!!!! This is for my husband - he refuses to take in packed lunch so v expensive. Still comes down to expense for me!!
