I currently spend about £4 on average for lunch each day so 4 x 5 = 20
20 x 4 (weeks)
= £80
Think I might go make my lunch for tomorrow when I come off the computer! lol
thats exactly why i started making me packed lunch cos the cost of having lunch out each day was too much lolSavings Total so far for 2023: £8,062.580 -
well mine is (per week) but i work 7 day weeks -
homemade rolls (flour, yeast and others) - 80p
cheese spread - 69p
apple (some are used at home) - £1.29
snack a jacks bagles - £2.50
homemade cake/flapjack - £1.30
total = £6.58 :rolleyes: per day 94p :j per month £26.32 :eek:
but i must say most of it is used at home too and i dont pay for it as i pay my housekeeping to my mum and she buys it

Cheapest I can eat at work is about £3 per day - and that doesn't buy enough to fill me up

So I make sandwiches at home, and eat up anything left over from the weekend - at the moment - home boiled ham and coleslaw. I'd guess (with homemade bread it's hard to judge) about £5-£7 a week, or £25 a month, compared to buying at £60ish...FWLBM - 1st Sept 06 - Debts: around £80k (not entirely sure...:o )0
