I do them all the time. I have no trouble eating on 12.00. What a Big Mc meal is less than 6.00 tax and all and then you order a chicken wrap or nugget meal, that pays for the food. I eat at a McDonalds or Sonic at least 3 times a week for either breakfast, lunch or supper. It pays for my food and who ever else who is with me. PLUS their payment. It PAYS. Yes on some of these receipts that you have to submit for pay can only have 1 order on them. So when that happens someone else in the party orders for the bunch.
I get paid for going to eat at fine dining business, they pay for a nice steak dinner, wine or beer and appetizers. Some of these even tell me to take a guest,they pay the cost for the whole date plus their pay. I have had a meal that cost me over 50.00 for me and date, the MSC paid me the cost plus paid me 25.00 for the report.
I is great when I get paid for even going out to the movies and get drink& popcorn for me and my spouse.
