September Bring Your Own Lunch to Work Challenge!

294 Posts


Hello everyone 
Setting up this challenge again for this month, thanks fatvond for doing this last month!
Buying lunch at work adds up over the year, a £3 meal deal - taking in to account 6 weeks of holiday, a meal deal at work every day costs £690 a year, but then I always want crisps AND chocolate :rotfl:
So taking our lunch to work saves us money and must be better for our health!
I am on holiday for 2 weeks in September but I am hoping for 10 days of bringing my lunch to work This means I cannot take lunch to work at all in September!
Kicking it off today with pasta, pesto and cheese...I bought a large of pesto reduced to clear so will be eating this for a while :rotfl:
I will try and keep this up to date whilst I am away - if I can't for whatever reason keep posting and I will update when I am back

I often get bored of having the same thing every day when I make it myself - either a salad or a sandwich/wrap so I'd appreciate budget friendly ideas to mix it up a bit.
Thanks in advance and good luck guys and girls!
