A Cheap Lunch Anyone?

I used to work with a fabulous lady.  She didn't like spending very much on lunch, less than $5.  Seems like you used to get lunch for around $5 but times have changed. Unless you are creative! Or just lucky to have found what I did! 
Strolling through a Neighborhood Walmart one day we were in the premade, lunch items section.  It's usually near the Deli.  I came across this....


.....and let me tell you it is so yummy!  There are other kinds.  I've tried Baked Potato-it was just alright-and Chicken Tortilla-it was yummy too!! But they are usually out of it! But the bisque is the best.  The price....$1.98.  Not at a lot of tasty, filling things out there for $1.98. 
Recently I've added these....


....they are yummy too! They came from good ole Target! One serving (2 twists) is .58 cents.
So added it all up tax and all.....this my friends is a $2.78 lunch! And if you're counting calories...380!
But......there might be a flaw......and here's where I'm telling on myself.......



I literally sit and eat this with the can of parmesan cheese.  Sprinkle, slurp, sprinkle, slurp....you get the idea.  I'm thinking it's still around a $3 lunch. A yummy cheap lunch!!
