Do you pack your lunch or buy it?
Starting a job on Monday and trying to save up money by packing my lunch. Just curious if others tend to pack also or buy theirs.

I try to always pack a lunch and some snacks so I'm not tempted to buy food. Sometimes I forget or run out of time in the morning to make it, but I've gotten a lot better and saved quite a bit of money from it! I figure buying lunch tends to run me $5-7 a meal so that's up to $35 a week!

I'm awful. I'll always bring a Lean Cuisine as a "backup," but if anyone announces "We're going to [insert much yummier option here]? Want anything?" I so can't resist. Oh well.

On Sundays I'll make a supersized pad thai dish or something and pack it up into lunch sizes for the week. Then I'll usually buy crap from the café anyway so I don't really see the point...sigh...

Fortunately for us, our company caters lunch every single day so saving money isn't a problem. But in my previous job, I definitely brought in left overs for lunch the next day. It saves you so much money! :]

I pack a lunch also...I figure it's healthier anyway. Be cool, brown bag it!

I almost always buy my lunch. It's stupidly costly. This last week though I've brought my lunch in and I think getting into the habit of it is a really good thing. You save $50 a week by bringing in a lunch!

I work really close to home, so I can just go home and make myself something. But, when I didn't live so close, I usually packed a lunch.

I should make my lunch but I'm not a morning person so I always forget.

You should pack it at night - that's what I do, otherwise I'd never bring it!

I'm gonna have to start doing it. Once I start something I'm pretty good at following through. It's just the starting part that I have a hard time with.
