    Today would have been my first day of frozen tuna sandwiches. However at 1.30 the sandwich was still frozen so I had to chuck it away and go and buy a sandwich.

    I will take tomorrow's sandwich out of the freezer tonight :D

    I've had a bagel with a cheese slice on everyday this week. Plus a banana an petits filous. How boring am I?! Payday and food shopping day tomorrow and also dropping down to 3 x 12.5 hour shifts a week so need to think of something to take for morning break and afternoon break!

    It doesn't mean you can't be MSE with the offerings of the security guy as well :D - it's a pity you can't trade his offerings with someone else for something veggie :money:

    Fleur - it might be boring but at least you've saved money :T

    Whoop whoop, another complete month without buying lunches for me! Brings my total days to 56 out of 56 working days. Well done to everyone else too, including the newcomers who are only just about to realise the addiction that spawns from this challenge by trying to resist buying your lunch on work days! :j

    I've been a little piggy this morning, I can't remember the last time I was so hungry, I started my lunch at 11:45 and it's already been devoured. It's a good job I have snacks in my drawer for the rest of the afternoon!

    I've just finished the last of my salad with half a pack of feta, half a cucumber and most of a huge jar of olives to carry over to next week so it should work out a little cheaper.

    I burnt my crumpets this morning so had popping-candy chocolate for breakfast, not very healthy, but it was free!
