I Spent $.83 On Food Yesterday

I guess I kind of cheated because some of the food was free.  It’s not like I found some incredibly bargain somewhere or something.

Every once in a while – maybe once every three months – work will offer up a free lunch for employees.  Today was BBQ chicken, with cornbread, corn, and potatoes.

Here’s what I ate (and drank:)

Trader Joe’s cinnamon apple oatmeal – $.33 for one serving.
Trader Joe’s vanilla almond bar – $.50 for one bar.
Diet Coke – free.  I took it from the conference room.
BBQ chicken – free.  About an hour later, I went back into the cafeteria and stealthily got a second helping.  I took it back to my office where I wrapped it up and threw it in our fridge so that I could take it home for dinner.  I also took a couple of free iced teas that they had over there for the rest of the afternoon.

That is a grand total of $.83 for the day.  Truly an exciting day for a cheapskate.
