    trying to persuade him to take a pack lunch to work as he is on the road and spends money on a load of junk.

    I try and take lunch 4 days a week - homemade soup, bread or left over dinners. Not sure how much it costs though.

    Having just managed to persuade hubby to take pack ups, our household spend for lunches is £4 tops (me, OH and DDs x2)

    On the days I dont work I usually have HM soup and a HM roll with a piece of fruit so again about £1 a day.

    I am at home at the moment on maternity leave so for me it is whatever I have in for hubby about £1.50.
    Credit Card 1 - £2900, credit card 2 - £6020 (0%).
    Mortgage £84000 - 17 years left without overpayments.

    Got to get organised, first credit card 1 £0/£2900

    I'm ashamed to say that I spend about £3 or £4 on work days, Martin's demotivator has been making me try to take a packed lunch but when faced with a choice of an extra 10 minutes in bed or getting up in time to pack lunch my bed always wins!
