Flame away.

My favorite kinds of days. Did you eat the sandwich at 9:30?

Nearly shocked to speechlessness at this egregious, blatant violation of YM rules. You, Swamp. of all people have been around long enough to know that you should be eating gruel for breakfast, a thinly-spread PB sandwich for lunch, and free conference, church or meeting food for dinner whenever possible until you are at least 65... ETA: I'm gonna put part of the blame for this on WeWillBackGowron and his lunch thread....

I will be going out to lunch too, and will be spending around $10, which is about the norm for me. My food/entertainment budget is easily the biggest non-essential expense for me, but I'm still living WAY below my means, so it's fine.

What can I say, I'm a YM failure. I also have a car payment, and my van has heated leather seats and a DVD player. I bought it brand spanking new in 2009 and I traded in a paid for 2006 van.

Oops... I got one of those, too (the car payment, not the heated leather seats, unfortunately...). But it is a 0% rate, so I am making SO much money on the 2.4% interest spread on the remaining balance. Mebbe even enough for a sandwich!

With such shennanigans, I don't know how you plan to have a fully funded retirement.

enjoy your lunch. I'm heading out to pick up takeout in a bit myself - that yummy noodle place I mentioned in the lunch thread yesterday.

I already know I'm a YM failure................but despite my efforts to bring lunch and eat in more, today I'm treating myself to lunch out and blowing whatever I may have saved this week. Well, I'll really only spend about $7 so I'll still have a savings compared to what I used to spend on lunches and the occasional breakfast. And that will just enough to bridge the gap on what I used to spend on gas and what I have to spend now.

I wish I weren't stuck inside eating leftovers, but it is cold and rainy out. Guess I will have to live vicariously through all your lunches.

I didn't have breakfast at home so I grabbed a bagel with scrambled eggs and bacon and a pancake in the cafeteria about 9:30. I won't need to eat lunch when I get home and I actually took meat out of the freezer for supper.

Eat the sandwich and go out to lunch..this is such a no brainer. I'm ashamed that you would think of giving it to the birds.

Just think about all the waitresses, cooks, farmers, and factory workers you are keeping employed through your selfless luncheon activity.

Aren't heated seats a necessity so you don't get carjacked?

You have my sympathy.
I think I'll have Phud Thai for lunch and do some economic stimulus of my own.
