Yes or no? if yes where/what do you buy, and how much would you spend for lunch?

Answer 1

yes, i bring a microwavable meal since we have microwaves some works do not

Answer 2

Sorry to say that I can't afford to buy lunch in Leeds.  I take a sandwich to work and also have a cuppa soup, a yogurt and an apple.  Same every day - very boring.  And there is a beautiful sandwich shop next door to my office.  How is that for self restraint?

Answer 3

no, cheap food purchased in bulk and made available to eat will land you much more cash, at the end of the month, besides the time crunch it takes to get to a restaurant or anything.

Yes i do. I'll maybe get a meat pie or a piece of grilled fish or subway. And a drink.

Answer 11

Rarely. I am a service engineer. If you take 30mins for lunch you finish 30mins later. We do  not get paid overtime. So if you go over your finish time it becomes your own time. So you use your lunch time to buy you time at the end of the day. I do eat but while I drive between jobs.

Answer 13

No

I work far from any restaurant in less than 30 minutes.

Answer 14

12 shift. Lunch made at home, eaten on the hoof.

Answer 15

no and it kinda sucks

Answer 16

I always stop for lunch.  I rarely eat breakfast and am starved by lunch time.  I am a sales rep on the road, and I usually stop at a restaurant like Bob Evans, Chilli's, Olive Garden, Pizza Hut, whatever I am in the mood for.  I don't like to spend over $10 for lunch including the tip.  I never order a drink, I drink water.  Occasionally, I will do a fast food drive through, and eat on the road.  I really don't like to do that, as it is not as healthy of food and it is about the same price as getting something healthier and a nice break, too.  If I do McDonald's, then it is always cheap.  I order a couple of things off the $1 menu, get a water and spend a couple of bucks.  If I am really broke, I occasionally will pack a sandwich, and I always take a small cooler with  bottled water, a juice, and sometimes a soda.  I also keep the water bottle sized lemonade packets in the car, and make up a drink if I don't feel like water.   I personally like the break from the car, and don't like to eat in the car.  However, most people have an office.  My office is the front seat of my car!  I find that if you don't order a drink, order off of the lunch menu, or watch how you order, you can have a decent meal and keep the price down.  I don't stop for coffee or sodas, like many people do.  I carry my own with me, but I do indulge myself for a lunch break.
