With the
start of school right around the corner I thought I'd direct you to this older
post I did awhile ago on how I prepare lunches for my girls to take to school.

My oldest is
in high school now and the price for hot lunch is around $3.00 which translates
to nearly $60.00 a month. With our total
monthly grocery budget set at $150.00 for the three of us this amount for
school lunch seems astronomical, not to mention, the quality of the food, to me
anyway, is highly questionable.
I think it
still pays to pack our lunches from home.
Hi there, I thought the whole point of school lunches is to be affordable for lower income families. $3 per lunch and 60/mo. is crazy, especially for the quality - just as you say!
ReplyDeleteI meant * $60/mo.
DeleteI think it is a ridiculous amount to charge. And for a large family it would be a huge bill each month.
