Whoops, I almost forgot that today is the last day of the work week! :) Well, for most of us anyway. It also means that today is the last day of WEEK 5 for the February-March Lunch Challenge! Can you believe it!?
There's only one more week left! (And technically Monday March 31st - no cheating!)
How did you do this week?
- krystalatwork - packed my lunch all 4 days ... although I had a major cinnamon bun craving today. I didn't think I'd make it!
- J (the BF) - packed his lunch all 4 days. Actually, I packed 2 of his 4 lunches this week. :)
- Bouncing Back - "Made it again this week. I will be spending Saturday making Easter eggs, I think I'll be eating a lot of egg salad next week."
- BeachGirl - "I brought lunch all week."
- Toxic Money - "We brought lunch all week, too."
- J. Savings - "Ate pb&J's 3 days this week, and bought the other 2."
- Vinelady - "Made this week. Today forgot to make my lunch so just grabbed odds and ends."
- Alex - "I've also made it! One week to go!"
- Natalie - "Made it this week. I went out yesterday -- but it's reimbursed."
- Niki - "Free & cClear again this week. I didn't even realize how much extra cash I was spending on lunches. This has kept a few extra monies in the bank!"
- L - "Everything went smoothly for me this week!"
- Erika - "I did great this week!"
- change is a good thing - "Brought my lunch again everyday this week ... actually everyday so far this year! Yeah!
- asgreen - "Did it again! In fact I'm starting to prefer to bring my lunch. Went out to lunch yesterday on the boss and felt like it was way too much food. "
- Ellen - "I bought today, and 1 day a week isn't so bad."
- Kate - "Made it through this week. I did buy lunch on Mon. because I had to go out of town, but I was reimbursed, so I'm not counting that since I got the money right back!"
- JanePlain - "Made it!!! :)"
- HighClassLowIncome - "This was my first full week of absolutely no spending!"
- Debt Dieter - " Made it again this week. That said it was only a 3 day week for me as I took Thursday off work."
- The Bright Side - "Since starting this on February 21, I have only spend $8.39. This is an incredible feat for me. My daily spending is normally $8 a day. I have saved well over $200 by doing this challenge and will continue to do it beyond March 31."
- VixenOnABudget - " During finals I totally brought my own food/snacks. Last week I was actually on Spring Break."

Made this week. Today forgot to make my lunch so just grabbed odds and ends.
I've also made it! One week to go :p
Made it this week. I went out yesterday -- but it's reimbursed (and it was healthy...sweet combo).
Oh, and I need to change my reply...I didn't make it last week. The Hubs called and wanted to go out and I couldn't resist.
Free & Clear again this week. I didn't even realize how much extra cash I was spending on lunches. This has kept a few extra monies in the bank!
Everything went smoothly for me this week! Next week we have a company lunch - I'm looking forward to some good sushi! At least it's paid for!
I did great this week! ~ Erika
Brought my lunch again everyday this week, actually everyday so far this year! yeah!
Made it again this week, leaving work early today, but have some snacks to tide me over until I get home.
I will be spending Saturday making Easter eggs, I think I'll be eating a lot of egg salad next week.
Sitting at my desk, jealous of you and everyone else whose last day of the week was yesterday. :)
You've been doing really well with this budget challenge! Great job!
Did it again! In fact I'm starting to prefer to bring my lunch. Went out to lunch yesterday on the boss and felt like it was way too much food.
I brought lunch all week.
We brought lunch all week, too.
ate pb&J's 3 days this week, and bought the other 2...but i've long failed at this one ;)
I WISH yesterday had been the last day of my week... but I bought today, and 1 day a week isn't so bad.
Made it through this week. I did buy lunch on Monday because I had to go out of town for business and couldn't bring a lunch, but I was reimbursed, so I'm not counting that since I got the money right back!
Made it!!!! :)
This was my first full week of absolutely no spending!
Made it again this week, that said it was only a 3 day week for me as I took Thursday off work.
I lost it one day after a bad morning at work and ended up going to lunch with my co-worker to talk about somethings away from the office. But, since starting this on February 21, I have only spend $8.39. This is an incredible feat for me. My daily spending is normally $8 a day. I have saved well over $200 by doing this challenge and will continue to do it beyond March 31.
During finals I totally brought my own food/snacks. Last week I was actually on Spring Break.
