yeah but that takes time to prep... i earn $30-something an hours... that means that for me to take half an hour to prepare food it costs me $15... not to mention the cost of doing dishes... ;D

on average i pay $3.84 for my venti iced americano at starbucks, $2.50 for a low fat blueberry muffin and anywhere from $10-$15 for lunch every day...

it doesn't save me money but at least i spend less time in the kitchen

That's cheap for lunch. When I go to lunch, I usually get fajitas, I think they are 14 bucks. Obviously not everyone drinks at lunch everyday, but drinks add up too.
