Finally broke my $5 meal streak after 3 weeks

I've been trying to keep lunches under $5 each, and last Tuesday I actually nailed 21 days in a row. The trick was noticing people keep buying pre-shredded cheese and single serving rice packets. Those cost like 3x more than doing it yourself. Has anyone else seen how much those little convenience items add up at the end of a month?

Wait, are you telling me pre-shredded cheese actually costs three times more than shredding it yourself? That can't be right.

Pre-shredded cheese is a total rip-off, just buy a block and a grater and save yourself the money.
