Lunch Programs

We run our school lunch and everything is done by hand. I amlooking for free software that will allow parents to order online and manage these orders fast and efficient. Any ideas?

I'm afraid we haven't come across free software to handle this kind of function. We could try putting this question on our Facebook page to see if we can get any responses.

That would be great! Tnx. I found a software that claims to be free but it really isn't; there are hidden fees. I am considering developing my own in Access, its just time consuming; was hoping there was something already out there. Tnx

I don't know of any free software that could do that. I would suggested a google doc excel sheet... but there would be challenges with that as well!

So, we have a few responses from our friends on Facebook. It doesn't look like there are many ideas for free software, but there are a few ideas about lunch programs that you could look into. Could be a good start! Best of luck!

We use myfooddays.com as well, they offer the service for free and only charge for taking credit cards about the same as doing it yourself with PayPal. We've found them to be really helpful and responsive, they have even added features to the site to make it ours. We use their free parent directory at the school as well.
