    I try and take a packed lunch to work and would probably equate to 50p to a £1 each day

    I spend about £3
  • hmm, probably about £2 ... i take in some rolls or a potato and get a bag of salad on the go, spreading my ingredients all over the kitchen counter like i'm on masterchef ...
  • £3 a day... oh dear that's £15 a week and a massive £60 a month and that excludes the daily coffee. Man-a-live!!! :eek:

    I spend about 60p a day.

    Half a tub of fresh soup (50p) and 2 pieces of bread (10p) :money:

    If I am having a good week then I remember to take a pack lunch everyday I spend under £10. Whereas if I am being disoganised and end up going to Tesco or works canteen I reckon I spend £3-4 a day so more like £20. Must be more organised!!!
  • I work from home so lunch is often leftovers from the night before or bargains I find in Waitrose. I would definitely say lunch costs under £1, probably more like 40-50p if I am having homemade soup and homemade bread.

    These sound ace, I wants one!

    I reckon I spend about a pound, as I get food from home, or buy stuff in bulk to make sandwiches with.
