Eating Cheap

Lets face it- going out to lunch every day can get costly. Here at MindComet we're social creatures - we often go out in small groups to lunch, sometimes daily.

For months this was the routine for me, until one day I realized just how much money I was spending on food every month. Going out to lunch can vary between 5 and 15 dollars a day, depending on where you go, and that's just lunch!

So, for the next month, I am setting a personal goal for myself to not spend more than $10 a week on food. Yes, that's $10 a week. It's a little more than a dollar a day, but it's really possible, and if I can pull this off, I will save almost 200 dollars. In one month. Pretty good savings right?

But alas, fellow MindCometeers and Cakeplow visitors - I need your support!! For the moment I've stocked up on Ramen and hot dogs, but there must be other things to eat that are fairly inexpensive - right? If you have any recipe ideas, please share! You know where to find me - I'm in that corner cube with the stack of Ramen underneath my desk.
