Has anyone ever bothered to work out how much it costs to provide a decent packed lunch?
My second child starts school in Sept and it's just hit me that I'm going to be spending nearly £20 per week on school dinners. And while I'm a big fan of school dinners on the grounds of making life easy for myself, that does seem like a heck of money. Also, the school is moving to a new building that's just behind our back fence, so I will have an extra 20 mins per morning, that could be put to good use!!
So for the first time in my life, I'm contemplating making packed lunches. But only if it's worth it. And once DD1's got wind of the idea, there will be no turning back.
