Children take packed lunches to school - about £1.50
Hubby and I eat leftovers from previous night's evening meal- free0 -
I spend around £1.50 maximum as I make lunch at home.0

Sounds like a great freebie.
I pack up my daughter's lunches and probably spend around £1.50-£2.00 each - they are young so have little appetites at the moment.
Hope i win :j0 -

I spend max 0.75p on lunch. I generally have left overs (pasta, cous cous, stew blended up to make soup) from the night before or half a tin of soup with a couple of slices of bread goes a long way. Alternatively, i have half a tin of baked beans (heated in the microwave at work) with a couple of slices bread0

i spend about 3.50 on my lunch most days, or i will take sandwichs0

Think mine evens out to £1 a day - cheese and pickle sandwich, crisps and a geobar (+bottle of tap water of course!) :T0

Between five and seven pounds.

Tesco baked crisps = 96p for 6 = 1 pack 16p
6 bananas for £1 = 1 banana 17p
8 apples for £1 = 1 apple 13p
Bread (3 loaves for £1.50, assuming 20 slices per loaf - 2 slices) = 5p
Ham 10 slices for £2.99 - 1 slice = 30p
Cheese triangle - 97p for 8 triangles - 1 triangle = 12.1p
So all in all about 93p. That would be more like £3 if I bought it from our work 'sandwich man', probably more.
Over the course of a working year (48 weeks) that is £223 rather than £720 - wow thats a £500 a year saving!! :beer:0
