Well, 5-6 homemade lunches using (the same) bread and (the same) stuff on top, with milk or orange juice.

About 2-3 normal cafeteria lunches (bread + milk or juice).

About 1.3 fast food lunches.

About 0.7 good lunches at cafes or restaurants.
1 - 3 lunches, depending on where I go to eat. Most likely just the 1 lunch though; I like food.

orcishgamer: Fast food in the US: 1.5 lunches (maybe just one if you want something like a milkshake with your lunch)
Really? I thought the US fast food prices were ridiculously low compared to ours, especially so with McD and BK. Like, a big mac meal for $4.50 or something. Those prices however are comparable to what I'd pay in a Norwegian fast food churner.
10 USD = ~7,2 EUR atm. With that you would be struggling to get any decent lunch in Finland. At best you'll get some fast-food hamburger or kebab. Lunch has been getting more and more expensive lately with average around 8 euros.

Here in Ireland for 7 euro you can Get wok noodles with chicken/beef off the grill and fresh juice

I have heard that food in scandinavia in general is very expensive
9.99$ = Breakfast, Dinner and supper for 3 days or 10 cheeseburgers at McDonald's or one 42 cm pizza or 7,5l of beer.
7 Euros, in the southern suburb of Brussels, will get you a modest lunch or a simple fast food menu. In the European district, that would get you half of your lunch. In the canteens, situation will vary widely depending on the employer. My employer does not subsidize the canteen ( at least for staff or lower level of management ) at all so 7 Eur would get me some ( not enough to feed me if the thing was edible) overcooked pasta, a (small) portion of fruit and a glass of soda... But some employers are far more generous. If I get back to my place of birth, a small village, 7 EUR will get me a nice pizza lunch, including a glass of wine...
9.99 USD in roughly one lunch for me (69 SEK).
Fast food outlets tend to be around the £5 mark, so I couldn't get more than 1 lunch with GOG money.

Subway here gives a student discount and my student card is still valid, so until September I can get a 6inch with a cookie and a drink for £2.99, so two Subways for one $9.99 GOG.

But if I instead went to my favourite place to eat, Ichiban, I could get the lunchtime special. I'd get a main and a side (Probably have the Chicken Chilli Ramen with a side of Kappa Maki) for the price of a GOG. Would need to spring extra for a drink though.

So I am curious. In the US maybe $5.99 or $9.99 is really the price tag of a lunch, but since we GOG members are from so many different countries, how many lunches a GOG game price tag actually is?

german lunches equivalent

10$ = 7.2€

= 2 lunches if you cook yourself (potatoes, two sausages, sauerkraut or something like this :) )
= 1.7 lunches if you go to the university cafeteria
= 1.5 lunches at a local fast food chain
= 1 lunch if you go to the china restaurant and order a lunch menu

Living in a rather small town has its advantages.

One lunch, give or take. I could probably stretch it to two or not even be able to get one depending on where I eat.
One 'average' lunch here (plus a drink) will cost you around US$1 to US$3, though the portion is around half of the 'normal' westerner's standard.
Let's see:
$10 = S/.28

= 3 lunches at my workplace cafeteria (2 if I pick dessert)
= 2 lunches at KFC if I pick the cheapest combo, otherwise I'm short a couple of soles of the second one
= 2 lunches at a local hamburger place
= 3 lunches at most small restaurants that sell lunch menus

It depends on what you're ordering and where--- a large Angus combo at McD's is going to run close to $7. I most often order off the value menu and have my own drink at work. Wendy's value menu ranges from $1 to $1.39 per item, so $3 will bag me any two to three of the following: 1) small salad; 2) small baked potato (sour cream, butter, chives optional); 3) bowl of chili; 4) small hamburger; 5) small fries; 6) 5-piece chicken nuggets.

A 12-inch turkey sub at Subway is 1-2 lunches and $5 (on special) or $6.50 (not on sale).

Just under $7 for Chinese/Japanese/Thai takeout from my preferred local pan-Asian joint.

Buying the ingredients on sale? $3 can be 10-12 peanut butter & jelly sandwiches.

Those are average prices in the Southeast US. Someplace like NYC or Hawaii will run higher.
