In an Effort of Healing - Let Matty Buy You Lunch! *
 
Ok, well things have been a bit hectic around here this week. There have been way too many squabbles, pissing matches and an overall bad feel in the air. I want you guys to be happy. So, I'm taking responsibility here. Everyone loves a good lunch thread; today has a twist; when you report your lunch please include its exact price. I will grade your lunch by letting you know how much "worth" it has. I.E if you go and spend 5.69, and I only agree with 1.85, that is your score. There are other things to consider like whether you are a total stranger/a jerk etc. (I don't want to blow $500 on you fools) but I promise to be as generous and as honest as I can at least for the first 20-25 people.

Also, to receive re-imbursement you must have a Stars account; at the end of the day PM me your screen name and the amount owed.

Peace,
Matt

My boss is buying pizza for the office. Does that mean you'll pay me nothing, or what it is worth??

Good question. Nothing. But report on it anyway. Don't be greedy, you're already getting free lunch!

I'll be having a grilled Godfather sub from DiBella's. Grilled capicola, salami and prosciutto, provolone cheese, spicy mustard, mayo, lettuce, tomato, onions, hot peppers, and Italian dressing served on hard crusted multigrain bread. A Coke to drink. Total cost is $7.53.

I will be having lunch at City Cafe on Eager St. in Baltimore. I will be enjoying an Italian Turkey Focaccia sandwich, which is composed of a generous portion of sliced turkey breast on thick focaccia bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and sun-dried tomato pesto dressing. It comes with a side of fries, and I will likely be having an iced tea along with it. The sandwich is $8.95, tea $2.00, not including tax. If you would like to confirm prices the menu is available here

If you like I can take a camera phone picture later to confirm I actually got it.

This is not necesary. But, pretty funny. I should elaborate that I will be favoring trusted OOT posters with reimbursement; you are trusted sir.

I'm poor. My lunch today:

Kroger brand Classic Chicken Noodle Soup. $1.50 with my Kroger card!

Rice with soy sauce and hoisin sauce. Maybe $0.50?

2 cans Diet Coke. A 12-pack for $3 with my Kroger card puts this at about $0.50 as well.

Total: $2.50

But you should anyway because your lunch sounds pretty good and it would be fun to see. Note that if you were just going to take a picture of the reciept and not the food you can ignore this suggestion.

I had a packet of mini cheddars and a can of coke. I'd say that comes to 87p = about $1.56

On friday's we always have pizza. but sometime i get fried chicken. Generally have a diet sprite to drink, I used to always get a cup with ice and a straw now I drink it out of the can and let it breath for a few minutes before drinking.

we get catered prepared lunch here everyday, so I already get free lunch, but wanted to share. It's a pretty nice setup. breakfast too.

I made my lunch today.
By that I mean my wife made it and I put it in the bag.

Anyhoo,
Orange
Banana
Grapes
Axelrod Fat Free Yogurt (raspberry)
Nature Valley Chewy Granola Bar (mixed berry, and very good I might add)
Turkey Sandwich on wheat with mustard and hot pepper spread.

So, as you can see, wife's on a diet, and does the shopping. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I'll try to avoid pansy status by noting that I stopped at McD's on the way in for a sausage egg & cheese sandwich. Got that pseudo hash brown thingy too...

There are no spots. Just report your lunch. I have a budget for this, that I do not expect to go over.
