Now I want to take a packed lunch along next time 🤣. Complete with a little plastic flask and a club bar

My hubby often takes leftovers that he can eat cold with a salad to work. If I’ve done something like a joint of gammon or roasted a chicken he will take sandwiches.

At work it's 50/50, depending on if I can be bothered to make one.

When I meet my fwb for a hotel date, one of the best things is the picnic spread whilst recharging the batteries. Listening to music, nattering away and stuffing our faces. It's pure bliss.

I'm not a morning person, so as much as I'd like prepare in the morning. I just shower n go to work.

Then walk to Tesco

I tend to bring my own lunch when I have to go into the office, unless I haven't got time to make something then I'll grab a sandwich. But there's only an Asda nearby to my office and their sandwiches are shite.

I will usually take a sandwich or, if there is any left, the leftovers from the previous night’s dinner

Depends on where I'm working. I worked in a job where a 3 course meal was provided every day, free of charge. In my last job the canteen was very heavily subsidised so it worked out cheaper than making it myself.

In my current job I'm on site so rarely that I tend to use the canteen rather than have to think about what I'm taking - there isn't a routine around it.

It is very rare that I eat a sandwich. I have to really famcy one and that doesn’t happen often.

We get food at work, so it all depends on the seasonal menu. Usually desserts are amazing 👌🏻

😂 At 'not on a meet' 😂

We do! And we have a Stanley flask for hot water, well actually 2, Bodum metal cups that keep a brew warm for over 3hrs & cutlery in the boot, over the years I bet we've saved a fortune

Tuther day we decided on an impromptu picnic, quick trip to Lidl, bag of ice, wine, antipasti, bread, cheese n tomatoes, spent under £20 for 2 of us

I mostly work from home, so make my own lunch. When I do get out therefore, I like to treat myself (Gregg's obvs).

If I've made a big batch of soup in the winter, I'll take this out with me in a big flask.

Having lived frugally for the most part, I always make my own lunches but seldom sandwiches. Too stodgy for me.

Humus, veg and pitta or salads in summer, and a "whatever veg needs using up" soup (padded out with beans or chickpeas) in winter. When I'm working full time I treat myself to a hot meal in the refectory once a week if the menu tickles my fancy

I once worked with a fellow and his lunch rule was the daily spend must not go over 37 1/2p for lunch.

(That was nearly 20 years ago, mind !)

I work from home, so I make lunch every day. It's often leftovers, or I cook. Today I made a toasted chicken mayo with vegetable crisps.

I always take a pack up to work.

I do a fair few unsocial hours and there wouldn't be anywhere to get much from, if on a night or twilight.

If I've had time to make them (or not been too lazy to), yes, but more often end up buying something.

Best thing about a Sunday roast or a Monday roast or whatever!? Is the delicious sandwiches for the week. Fuck all these meal deal bollocks!

Home made as often as possible. And self flagellate myself for every sandwich I buy out that’s a fucking let down.

I work from home now and in the last few years food prices have gone up a lot. So I would struggle to be able to afford food bought every day. Adding a coffee too and it becomes a small fortune!
