Now you're going to make me a more frugal person than before... I'll feel guilty for eating an expensive tuna sandwich. ;) This is great, never thought I’d see such deep analysis into the price of a sandwich!

I didn't mean to make you regret eating your tuna sandwich! lol :-) If you want to save a little extra money and make your tuna sandwich cheaper, here's a tip: just remove the tuna and you'll save an extra $0.40 - and if you get rid of the mayo your sandwich would only be $0.11! That's what I do. ;-) @MLR: I had a coworker who used to do the same thing as you - only he would do it when we went on travel. He'd actually pack the sandwiches into a Wonder bread bag and carry the kluged loaf on to the plane with him. lol Then, while the rest of our group went out for a nice steak dinner, he'd stay in his room and eat his PB&Js. On a week long trip he'd make a few extra bucks because we were on per diem, rather than actuals. True story. I may be cheap, but I'm not that cheap! :-) @Tom: Sorry, my friend!
