Recently while trying to make more time in my life I decided to find time to get things done during lunch. I also decided to try and mix savings in, and thanks to a friend at work (Bill Cool) I now have not one idea, but 2.
Add a canned or bottled drink brought from home plus some microwave time and you can have a decent lunch (nothing huge) for a total of about $3.00, especially if you buy off-brand name drinks.
$2.50 Hormel Compleats
$0.50 Drink

Run by your local Taco Bell and grab 2 items off of the “Why Pay More” menu, or choose one of their “2 Dollar Meal Deals“. Oh, and if you are easily entertained (like me) you can roll your mouse over the Taco Bell bell at the upper left of the website and hear the bell ring (that’s free).
Prices vary on choices.

GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra garnered a PG-13 rating for strong action sequences of violence and mayhem throughout. The second movie this year to be ripped out of the hands of its younger audience by Paramount with a PG-13 rating. Understandably, the approach is to the widest audience which includes those who grew up on GI Joe, but the youngins are gonna have to sit this one out.
The Joes and Cobra are treated to a super-upgrade of technology since the last cartoons I saw as a kid. If you can, I would recommend checking out the movie, even if you aren’t a GI Joe Fan since you will also be able to follow the story line and enjoy the hi-tech super-battles that permeate the movie.
Check out the Official GI Joe: Rise of Cobra site.
