    I had to share my frugal-thinking since I'm still such a newbie.

    I work in govt. now and everytime there's a meeting they have leftovers, and they put them in teh kitchen. Well, while I was washing out my containers from lunch, leftover pizza and salad was brought in and set ont he table. Being 2 in the afternoon, everyone's already had lunch, but rather than let it sit there and go to waste as the food usually does.....
    I took my clean containers and put 2 square pcs. pizza in one and filled the other with salad and put them in the fridge. I haven't decided whether they'll be supper tonight or lunch tomorrow, but I was pleased with thinking of it

    Considering a friend took me to lunch yesterday, that'll make 2 days this week I've had a good free lunch!!!!! YAY!!

    Wow that's so smart. I'd probably have done the same thing.

    Yes I'm out of my mind. It's a dark and scary place in there.

    Good for you. It is such a shame to see food go to waste.
