$1000 might be a good figure. That's $100/day, which you may not spend on a day you don't have a TS, but your TS meals might be about $100 each so it might average out. Look up the menus for your TS and get an estimate of what you might spend, look up menus at a couple counter service and estimate what each counter service might cost you. Multiply times number of meals.
