Hi All,
Some great ideas on this thread! I've been making up cheap pasta bakes or shepherd's pie in bulk but I've started to get sick of the taste of I'm going to try out some of the ideas I've found here. I am lucky in that my work has a cheap restaurant with staff discount, the cheapest meal I can buy is a jacket potato with 1 topping (I normally get tuna mayo) side salad and a drink (I go for hot chocolate) and this only costs £1.50! which I think is often cheaper than some of my packed lunches! So this month I've been doing a bit of both.Comp Wins on Twitter to Date: 20 Prizes!

There are loads of cheap HM meals that you can take to work,so keep at it!
Samiszel the soup should be ok,but if you leave it to Monday,that might be stretching it a bit.
