Do you pack your lunch or eat out?

[princessplease]

I always pack my own lunch. I can''t afford to eat out everyday lol, and I actually work in a small suburb, so there are not many choices for eating out anyway.

A mix... I eat out when coworkers want to go, I go home on days I can, I eat a packed lunch other times.

Why does your husband feel weird taking a lunch? My dad''s a doctor and he says all the docs and nurses crowd around jealously when they see him eating the lunches my mom packs for him. Maybe you could cook him some really irresistible stuff for his lunches?

When I worked in an office, I brought my lunch every day unless I made specific plans with someone to go out. It gets very expensive very quickly to eat out daily. If you spend $5/day x 5 days week= $25 x avg of 50 work weeks a year = $1250

I pack my lunch usually salads or sandwiches. I have some frozen veggie burritos in my office freezer as well. I hardly eat out for lunch unless to meet my mom or DH for lunch.

I eat out everyday, although it is not always eating out. I never pack my lunch because it seems like no matter what I pack, I never want to eat what I brought. I either eat McDonalds, Subway or I go to the Grocery Store that is very near and get whatever it is that I am wanting that day. It is so nice working near a grocery store.

I order out. Sometimes, when we''re are not busy, me and a co-worker go over to eat Thai a few blocks away.

I never eat what I bring, the few times I tried to do it. We have a lot of different foods in my area and they all deliver, so it''s really easy to just order.

I do notice that I am the only one who orders all the time. I always ask everyone if they want to order with me, but everyone always says no, but when my food comes, they ask if they can try it. Like every day. No joke.

I was just ranting to my friend that I ordered fried calamari the other day at work and asked everyone if they wanted to order with me. It was the first time I ever ordered from this place, but it''s pretty popular in Brooklyn, so I figured some people would want to order with me.

Well, I got my food, went to go eat it and four people asked me for some of my food. It annoyed me like crazy, bc I asked these people if they wanted to order and they said no. I can''t stand it when others mooch off of me.

Esp. since I don''t ask them for their food....

If I go out for lunch, I almost always make bad choices. Very, very bad choices.

So, when I''m able to I pack a lunch.

80/20

80% Pack and 20% Eat out...but it''s still slightly healthier eating out since I go to the nearest grocery store and get a sandwich or roasted chicken from there. Does that count as eating out?
