This week I have been lunching on mushrooms, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, grapes, carrots, spring onions and cubes of cheese, with a banana for pudding. I have sufficient fresh to see me through the week, and although the cheese, peppers and carrots will last more than a week and therefore will not need to be a regular purchase, my shit maths tells me that start up costs to do the same are £9.80, according to the website of a popular supermarket – using the same website, I’m estimating second-week costs as £3.36, which brings my lovely, fresh, healthy and tasty lunch to around £1.32 per day.
I’ve never worked it out before, but that kicks the pants off of the £3.80 I was paying daily for sandwiches, crisps and a snickers. Go me! 😀
