spent 45p today. Thats the first all month. Bought a roll and sausage and fried onions. Also bought chocolate but when I got back to my desk discovered I had been undercharged
. Oh well I have been overcharged so often I dont really feel guilty. DS wants a school lunch tomorrow so I will let him do that. I think so long as I stick to under a fiver each week I will be happy enough

Went well today on the lunch front! Our electricity and gas boiler thing failed so we had to phone 480 parents to pick their kids up from the school so I didn't even get a lunch break, even though I'd taken something in. There was no temptation of school dinners today as they couldn't cook them anyway!!
:beer:
This week so far £0.00:D
Hopefully if the elec/gas is on tomorrow I shall be buying chips from the school kitchen, ah c'mon I deserve a treat !?? :undecidedDFW Nerd no. 496 - Proud to be dealing with my debts!!0 -

Since joining this challenge, I have definitely been less tempted.
Despite bringing my lunch in, I would often go down to the shops to get sweets or something else to go with the lunch. Spent 25p yesterday thought on sweets because I was feeling a bit blue.
Going to use up chocolates/sweets from Christmas next week.:rolleyes:0 -

Today, potentially could be very sad on the lunch front....it's Friday, which means chip day at school. But yesterday we had to shut the school cos the power went down and looks like it might be shut again today which means no chips
I've made 2 ham rolls (small lil things) for lunch, so possibly another NSDDFW Nerd no. 496 - Proud to be dealing with my debts!!0
