"  I&amp;#039;m always looking for ways to conserve cash and one no-brainer saver I&amp;#039;ve found is to make my own lunch instead of buying it. My major problem: As a single person, it&amp;#039;s hard to get groceries in small enough quantities to vary my meals from day to day, so I wind up eating the same lunch all week. (Even still, the deli guys look at you kinda funny when you order just five slices of cheese for a workweek of sandwiches.) I tried making large recipes and freezing the extra servings so I could mix up what I brought each day, but that got cumbersome and I ended up wasting food. My smart solution: I started a &amp;quot;lunch club&amp;quot; with a couple of co-workers. We take turns bringing in real cooked meals (polenta lasagna! bacon-green chili quiche! sausage-and-veggie farro!) on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and share leftovers (or treat ourselves to a bought lunch) on Thursdays and Fridays. It&amp;#039;s easy on the budget and a great excuse to try new recipes... plus, we&amp;#039;re each only responsible for cooking once a week. Talk about a win-win-win! In what ways have you collaborated with others to save money? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
