Lunch: buy or bring?

Answer 1

This is a tough choice for me because I often bring something to microwave and our break room is not set up for a social environment. Meanwhile, buying is much more social, but much more expensive while being far less healthy. Anyhow, to make it even more complicated, I am on a diet, so the tendency is for me to bring instead of buy... I wish the buy options were better...

Answer 2

I go through spurts. I will bring a cheap lunch from home like canned pasta or lean pockets for weeks or even months. But then I will get so sick of eating the same things that I'll go out for lunch for the next month or two.

Answer 3

Bring.

Answer 4

Either way you've had to buy it first. Bring a lunch nonetheless.

Answer 5

If you want to save money then buy groceries and bring your lunch, it has saved me a ton of money in college.

Answer 6

This is a question I ask myself everyday! I work in NYC, where there are hundreds of great places to eat, but it really takes a toll on my wallet. If I could just muster up the willpower to make a sandwich in the morning, it would save so much money! :-p

Answer 7

It depends on the quality of the food they are selling. If the weather is hot, you might not want to risk bringing food that could spoil.

Answer 8

Tough one... I usually buy, but I spend like $40.00 a week....that's over $150 a month. AHHH!!!! So I'd rather bring, but I never do...

Answer 9
