Still going strong - not bought lunch yet this month, or snacks on my way from job no1 to job no2. (I work full time mon-fri) and part time evenings thurs & fri.
Brought in packet pasta (instructions say can do in microwave so gonna try it), a tupperwear tub of leftover olives from a jar.....and 2 babybel cheeses. Will look all mediterranean with my lunch...while everyone else forks out £5+ for their friday fish & chips!0 -
Still no spend in Feb! brought in leftovers (including some lush potato and leek soup, leftover bolg pasta bake and leftover shepherds pie) and today brought in a tin of soup. I've taken a page from the book of people on here and started keeping some tins of soup (from regular shop trips) in my desk drawer for days that I forget things from home. Plus, they were on offer last time and only £1 for 4!

Two weeks down, two to go, and I have stuck to my pledge so far. Last week bought lunch in the works canteen, really enjoyed it probably because I had done the home stuff all week. This week only had coffee and a cake with a couple of friends, all other food brought in from home.0
