screw the domestic; see if there is pho restaurant handy near by work.
McDonald and fast food chains are a rip off. You get about $2 worth of food for $5.
Looks like I can get a 5 QT crock pot at Walmart for $20-$30 depending on how I option it out..
I will be putting crock pot into service soon. I like the idea and I think I will be able to eat good, healthy, cheap meals for lunch and dinner with little prep time when it cooks all day...
I am Caucasian so I do not dabble in too many foreign foods. I love chinese, unfortunately we do not have the cheap chinese food around here.
I would be eating hard boiled eggs anytime soon... sorry.
Thanks again guys!
I think Im set with Bananas, 2 heads of lettuce, meat of some kind, crock pot, crock pot recipes.... I will update as I purchase these things.

PBJ. all day,
I regularly spend $10 a day on food at work, finally did the math came up to around $200-$300 a month..
so i just buy bread and make sandwiches to bring to work.

Bag of 6 hoagie rolls $3
Pound or so of turkey $7
Package of Provalone slices $3
Bag of sugar snap peas $4
$17 for the week for my lunch.
Micowave a turkey sandwich to melt the cheese, and snack on pea pods. Nothing really fulfilling about it but I am trying to see if I can be in pro athlete shape (not likely but I will give it a shot) on my forthcoming 40th birthday and this is to cut out the chubble.
When I get home it is egg white and veggie omletes. I don't eat breakfast.
I could really go for a pizza right about now.

I will also definitely keep the crock pot in mind! When I have the extra money I will buy one and look into some recipes.
I use this so often. I make a pot of my 4 bean steak chili and that'll last me a couple weeks on leftovers. Leftovers aren't bad as long as they taste good.
Also, around here we get some sales for pork shoulder at 89
