I'm talking about about a decent lunch that voild be somewhere healthy and decently quick at the same time.

I just relized that jersey mikes raised their prices and my lunch was over $10

I would understand if I lived in a big popular city. But I don't think the cost of living is really that bad in the greater Raleigh area

Yes I know they are expensive to begin with

Just something I was thinking of.

Subway has $5 foot long subs. Go there instead.

12/28/2009 2:56:09 PM

Mitch’s has a great london broil for $7. If you get a water, that’s <$10 for a good meal.

12/28/2009 2:56:44 PM

good idea, half the price for a fifth of the meat/cheese/fixins

12/28/2009 2:57:11 PM

it's healthy and quick

and they toast


and actually, i get a helluva lot more veggies at Subway than at JM. they have way more options in that department.

i mean, if you're looking for a pound of meat on your sandwich, then stick with JM.

I'm happy if it's around $8 or less (not including drink/taxes) and made of quality ingredients.

12/28/2009 2:59:03 PM

if i could get the fresh sliced deli meat/cheese from Jersey Mikes and add all the veggies from Subway, i'd be in heaven

12/28/2009 3:00:32 PM

subway makes terrible sandwiches. the bread is always dry, hard, and flaky. you barely get any meat. the cheese always tastes bad. plus it's never fresh cut meat. the sandwich is 90% bread and the bread always tastes bad

12/28/2009 3:03:05 PM

^you must go to a shitty subway. bread is always soft and fluffy where i go.

i'll agree there's not much meat on the sandwiches, but they have all sorts of veggies - so that's the appeal of Subway for me. i like getting lots of veggies.

12/28/2009 3:04:51 PM

No more than $4.

Make your own meals.

12/28/2009 3:05:28 PM

^BS

$10 for a 'decent' lunch

$20 for a nice lunch

dinner = usually $20 can be 'decent' but you have to be careful. typically more.

12/28/2009 3:09:00 PM

6" HT sub, $2.99....Better than JM and subway.

Are you kidding me?

I eat for no more than $20 per week.

12/28/2009 3:13:04 PM

nigga plz, i make mad $$$ and wouldn't even dream of spending that much on any meal except on special occasions. even then I wouldn't like it


oh, and subway sucks for putting anything on their sandwiches. nc, sc, tn, doesn't matter where I go. last one I went to in Memphis tried to charge me 40 cents because I told them I didn't put enough olives on my sandwich and this I ordered "extra". I walked the fuck out of there too

12/28/2009 3:16:56 PM

8-10 bucks for lunch is pretty reasonable.

my god, what kinda subways are ya'll going to? hit up some Cary/Morrisville area Subways and check out what kinda veggies you get. if i say extra pickles it becomes a pickle sandwich, no joke

12/28/2009 3:23:55 PM

Seriously though?

If you're spending $10 per day on lunch alone you're a fucking moron or rich or both.

not if you get one of the daily specials.

12/28/2009 3:27:48 PM

$10 is a lot but it's not unreasonable

12/28/2009 3:28:04 PM

yeah $10 a day per lunch is a bit much. you can cook a decent amount of chicken/roast/whatever meat and have good food everyday for a lot less than that

not that i actually do that, though. lol.. i've been just eating a $5 footlong and water or just a burger from mcd's with no drink or fries.. or i'll save my large tea cup and just wash it out/refill it at mcd's. they don't seem to notice and or care

12/28/2009 3:28:39 PM

hey if you want to blow 3 bucks going towards fast food adn getting fat like all the freaks in here are offering then yeh. moron it is.

12/28/2009 3:29:40 PM

you don't have to buy fatty foods at fast food places. they have cheap salads and grilled chicken also. or you could get off your ass and work out once in awhile. not you in particular but you in general.

12/28/2009 3:30:57 PM

You can get a medium frozen pizza from harris teeter for like $6 at eat two slices a day for four days

Combine that with a 12 pack of soda for $6

That's a meal for $2 / day

12/28/2009 3:32:11 PM

no yeh totally agree twoozee.

im just sayin, a 'decent' 'meal' is gonna set you back 10 typically. but yeh, 'deals' can of course be found

12/28/2009 3:34:05 PM

You can get a main course, two vegetables and a water at the K&W in Cameron Village for about $6.

290 calories per serving, and your vegetables.

And that's just a quick option.

If you're real smart, just get a chicken breast ($6-9) and frozen vegetables ($4) and eat that for the week. That's extremely healthy, good (if you know how to cook), and cheap.

12/28/2009 3:38:20 PM

I'm going to spend 20 bucks tonight on lunch shit. Ill report back on what I get

Waking up early isn't a problem because I'm up an adam no less than 30 mins befor I have to go to work.

12/28/2009 3:40:24 PM

Also soups are tremendously cheap.

Campbell's Select Harvest soups are 2 for $4. Combine that with some nice toasted bread and that's lunch for the week for about $12.

And That's why you're bangin'.

These fools, I tell you, Joie.

12/28/2009 3:47:06 PM

i just eat sushi or a sandwich for lunch most days of the week

SHE HAD TO PLAY WITH A STICK.

12/28/2009 3:51:09 PM

omg i love sweet tomatoes!!

my boyfriend hates it so i have to either go alone or trick someone else into it

joie its not so bad when you have a buy one get one coupon. just sign up for their souplantations list and they send coupons every week

2 adult meals (plus bevs, which i dont drink anyway but they make you buy 2) for < $15

12/28/2009 3:51:20 PM

I puked

12/28/2009 3:51:52 PM

lol @ Sweet Tomatoes.
$10 for a good salad and some "slightly better than cafeteria food" pizza/soups.

I think it was pretty obvious that this thread was about going out to eat. Nobody said you have to do it every day, but if I go out to eat I'm probably spending more than $2.00 on my meal.

That's crazy.

The most expensive place around my office would MAYBE be close to $10 if I got the most expensive meal with all the trimmings.

12/28/2009 3:53:32 PM

^^^ their soups are awesome

and dont get me started on their bacon dressing

[Edited on December 28, 2009 at 3:54 PM. Reason : r]
