Did you know the average person spends $900. per year on fast food? Do you think you spend more or less than this?
That would break down to $75 a month, 17.33 a week.
I'm too cheap for that!! Now I'm reconsidering my flaming hot cheetos I usually get at the canteen to eat with my sandwich when I go for chemo.

Well I'm concerned about how much I give Fast Food, we spent this month like $19.52 several times this month so far on Fast Food

Linda Joy That's why I don't eat out. I'm too cheap. I can take a bag lunch and skip all the hassle as well. But I stay home most of the time so I don't have to worry about it every day like some do. But when I managed a Subway and they give you a free sandwich for every shift and you're putting in 70 some hours a week you're gonna get tired of those sandwiches! -
Carol Camp I can't refuse stopping by the fast frood place. I know it's unhealthy and I ususally spend too much on fast food - around $150 a month

A whole lot less than that.
-
Since I never eat fast food, I spend decidedly less.
-
I rarely patronize fast food restaurants (two visits to MacDonald's during the past 20 years). As such, I spend very little money for fast food.
-
I am way lower than that for it. Probably 4 to 500 per year for me.

I might have a take-a-way pizza a couple of times a year, (usually watching sport on TV with friends) & very occasionally go to the chippy, so probably not much more than £50 (about $70) a year. $17.33 is about £12, which would be one large deep pan pizza with extra toppings a week or an ordinary medium pizza & a couple of bags of chips. Balance people like me against people who have a McD's or a KFC etc. every day $900 a year sounds quite feasible and slightly worrying!
-
well the fish and chips is close to $30 for a one night night meal ..hope your chemo is working well for you sorry you are ill

How many people are you feeding? I'm done with chemo, thanks for asking! I had my last infusion on Aug. 5th! I was bragging to my friend who wanted to take me out to celebrate that I had "no more appointments till Sept." Then darned if my primary care didn't call to schedule an appointment for next week!! That almost always happens when I brag about something!

Oh much less. We usually only buy the fried or roast chickens in the super market delis when they are on sale. No other fast foods unless it's a "fix" for visiting great grandkids.

I do. I have 4 of them ranging in age from 11 years down to 7 mos. All girls so far. It is pretty awesome. I never thought I'd live long enough to have gr. grandkids in my life.

That's approx 150 Fast Food meals a year. That means 12 meals a month or three a week. That seems about right.😎😏😑😖
-
I rarely eat fast food so much less spent.
-
much less
-
I spend much more. I am single[ when I was working is was much easier and less expensive to eat out most days of the week. Now that I am retired I eat out several times each week as it is relaxing and enjoyable to see friends. It gets really boring to eat at home and having only the TV for company. If I could afford to, I would eat out every dinner time.
-
Depends what constitutes fast food: TV dinner? Instant rice? Pre-jarred pasta sauce? I usually order out for lunch once a week, 2-3 weeks a month. Is that fast food if it's take-out from a normally sit-down eatery? I just don't know. As for stuff like McDonald's, we don't even have that here. We have a Dominos pizza and every other big chain was run out of town by the Chamber of Commerce.

Frankly an apple, carrot or banana is much faster than fast food!

Much less. We nearly never go to fast food stores. I'd rather go to a sit down restaurant. 7/25/23
