Gone shopping?
Or has no new shoes changed our habits?

Hi how are you deciding what things are essential -I am a bit concerned about bought lunches! Am I suppose to steal them? I would have to buy ingredients and I often find that I throw things away. I am able to have a reasonably priced hot lunch in my canteen at work which saves me cooking in the evening when I would have no time. Help!
Hi Ruby,
The most important thing about Buy Less: Live More is that it's a bit more flexible than No New Shoes. The idea is that we think sensibly about which of our shopping habist make sense, and which simply don't. It sounds like, for you, bought lunches are the best plan - with the added advantage (or disadvantage) of being away from your desk and a chance to catch up with friends and colleagues.
I think for BL:LM, everyone's going to have to come up with their own tailored essentials list. It'll be interesting to see what people come up with...
