I spend $50 a week on lunch

[Uber V8]

FAWK.

I have to cook more or find a girl that can make my lunch in a brown paper bag.

Am I the only one though?

.... you spend 10 dollars a day on lunch. I wouldn't call that splurging.. but if you are strapped at the moment... there's always PBnJ.

[TotalPower]

most days i spend 4-6 bucks....on Friday i may spend 10...weekends, i'm out with my girl. Gotta save everywhere!

I had to take my attorney out to lunch today... i think thats what his meal cost.. before drinks. I am forced to entertain a lot. But, I will say one of my guilty pleasures is the chicken and rice guy that sets up shop on the corner where my apt building is.. $5.00 lunch + $1.00 soda at least once a week. But, I definitely spend like $10.00 on a mixed drink or glass of wine at lunch a few days a week...

I am a terrible example.. I should refrain from posting in this thread.

Yes, but eating like this regularly creates a whole different kind of problem...

Is that on your dime or company dime?

95% of the time yes... other times, no. $50 is pretty low per week. I mean, if you were to eat McDonalds every day for a week it would cost you $50.00.

[Slops]

i get paid $56 a day to use for food... per diem is the way to go baby

I'd rather eat bat shyt w/ bbq sauce than McD'z. But dam NYCGP, I'm not sure if I should feel good that I must be saving money or bad that I don't have enough to trick like that! haha

I get per diem, but only when I'm traveling. On one trip I got $71 a day for food. My co-workers and I would eat 6in subs from subway for lunch then go nuts and get filet mignon for dinner. That was a great trip.

[ejazbmw]

i probably do more then 60

and btw your only allowed to deduct 50% of meals for business expense.

PBnJ, left overs or cold cuts here. Cereal is a good money saver and lasts for a week or so if you got a fridge to keep your milk in.

I guarantee that girl will end up costing you more than $50 a week.

Ok I get it. Yea, a little similar for me too, except we only have out of state conferences like twice a year.

dude, cereal for lunch? I mean no offense if money is tight, but you're probably 110 lbs if that's all you're eating
