To get a mid week takeaway

I’ve just been to the fridge, and the meat I was planning on cooking is past it’s sell by date and a little bit smelly!

Do I go to my local and see what they have? Or do I commence sitting on arse and order a pizza?

YABU - Get to the shops you lazy fish wife

YANBU - Get pizza on a Tuesday - live in the edge

@Changethetoner

Mid-week take out is only permissible if you are NOT going to get one at the weekend as well. Otherwise - oink oink.
Oh I can easily create an ‘oink oink’ (Hmm) meal at home myself if I decide to have two ‘oink oink’ meals in a week. I don’t need a takeaway for that.

Get your pizza OP, mid week takeaways are great. You could even go wild and have one at the weekend too. It’s Christmas Wink

@Judashascomeintosomemoney same here! We almost never get takeaways but decided to try our local Chinese, had the order all done only to find they're closed on Tuesdays!

BroomHandledMouser · 01/12/2020 16:34

Papa Luigi ordered. I might get a gin too

Get a takeaway!

I feel like one now, myself.

PurpleDaisies · 01/12/2020 16:38

I am so envious. We’ve got one on the meal plan for Friday but I’m craving one now.

Enjoy!

20% off on Just Eat on a Tuesday. Or so I hear. Ahem.
On an order over £15 usually. Last Tuesday I had a Chinese takeaway that lasted me for 4 meals.

It's half past four! Won't you be hungry by bedtime??

Pizza though...mmmmmmm😛

Boringly, I'm diabetic (diet controlled - so I have to keep my carbs really, really low- it does not allow for takeaways 😢). Please enjoy a slice for me!

Be a devil. Ignite the meal plan! Life's short.

Swap them if you really can't afford two.

LaurieFairyCake · 01/12/2020 16:43

Just ordered a Chinese takeaway off the back of this thread

WitchesBritchesPumpkinPants · 01/12/2020 16:44

Ignore, not ignite! But then again, maybe the iPhone has it right!!

PurpleDaisies · 01/12/2020 16:45

I’m tempted to ignite the meal plan! Excellent advice @WitchesBritchesPumpkinPants Grin

PompeyBez · 01/12/2020 16:45

Well you've talked me round. Cheeky Tuesday it is!Grin

IntermittentParps · 01/12/2020 16:46

Course you're not being U!!! Where is the law that says what days you can have a takeaway?

Hope it's amazing.

Love, your fellow fishwife

FanFckingTastic · 01/12/2020 16:46

You are being a little bit unreasonable if you are ordering a takeaway and not having a cheeky drink to go with it.... Everyone knows that a takeaway needs a nice glass of gin / beer / wine to go with it Smile

Seriously, go for it. Enjoy!!

Madcats · 01/12/2020 16:47

If you are in an Uber Eats zone, and haven't used them before, I had £15 if you spend £15+ through the app that worked on Sunday (and ought to work the rest of the week):
Try code EATS20UK11.

Hope it works

Fluffyunicorns · 01/12/2020 16:52

Tuesday is BOGOF at Dominos - there is your answer

SilverStarburst · 01/12/2020 16:52

What FanFckingTastic said, you would only be unreasonable if you weren't having a cheeky drink too! I will join you and open a bottle of wine (not until after 5 though, I do have some standards) 😁 Have a great night!

I'm self isolating and, in between working from home, I have spent the day giving the kitchen a very overdue deep clean. It looks beautiful. Way too nice to actually cook in so I have also been debating the idea of a midweek takeaway!!

MrsR2be · 01/12/2020 17:11

If it get a takeaway is midweek and I'm shattered and don't want to cook

8obbingabout · 01/12/2020 17:12

oh 100% get yourself a takeaway!
