Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Recently introduced to public school meal cost... $1.40 a day for breakfast, 2.10 a day for lunch is what DW told me.
Is this reasonable or should we pack lunches and do a hot lunch on Fridays for our DD? DD doesn't care either way.
DW thinks it would cost $1 a day if she packed a lunch (1/2 sandwich, veggies, fruit slices, milk/juice), but will DD feel "different" or leftout in school?
When I worked downtown, I could find early bird or late lunch places, for example - Asian restaurant, before 11:30am or after 1pm, $1 scoop. I could get lunch (2 main entree scoops, pass on the rice or noodles unless I was very hungry) for $2.
DW is a SAHM so she is ok with making lunch. DD will have breakfast before leaving home. I told DW make an extra lunch and I'll take it with me.
Are we being frugal or just cheap?
