I love this thread! It inspired me last year to ditch bought lunches. Since June last year, I've only paid for one lunch - our Christmas lunch in the pub! My weekly lunch budget down from 15 pounds to 2.50! Why didn't I do it earlier?!Credit Card (Mar 2011: £11,171; Mar 2012: £14,494; April 2012: £13,329)

Was off work yesterday but today I had leftover cheesy potato bake and rocket today. CANNOT spend anything extra on lunches this week as blew my budget at the weekend going to the march in London! Luckily I have lots of bits and bobs in the freezer and fridge. Hope everyone is having a nice week.Since starting again after beanie: June 2016: Child development DVDs, Massive Attack tickets.
