£4-00 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

parking aint that bad. up on the kerb, or down the back road. initially i said £20 but dropped to £15 as it was fortnightly.

do quite a bit of cleaning for their family so they were interested in a price for that place.
its done WFP and thats what i would of done. but when they told me £4.00 a said that they have got the best deal in town!!!
-
How on earth did she think she would get a better quote than £4?
-
id stick with £20 but offer 6 weekly.
-
My guess is they probably asked for a quote to give them a good feeling about what a bargain they were getting.
I park on double yellows to do plenty of jobs and the traffic wardens don't bother me. As long as my back doors are open it's classed as loading. :)

18quid prob 2quid a window as sash window can be a pain sumtimes

-
ahh be fair I know lads that would do that for ten bob a window so £4.50 ;D
and I am being serious I reckon when they priced they miss counted the windows ;)
personally £9
-
I would probably say £12 but might be tempted to add a bit on in case I ever got a parking ticket.
-
£12 2 monthly , best price inc door (personally)
so she sacked her windy who she was paying £4.00 :o and is now paying you 3x+ more cool ;D
-
£4!!!
This just shows that some people have no business understanding as to what their running costs are. I can almost guarantee that it will be cash in the back pocket at that price.

Why are they looking for a new window cleaner?
I would have quoted £20 every 8 weeks.

It amazes me how some people make a living.... £4 :o
I was waiting for some equipment to arrive yesterday so could not work, instead i dropped a few flyers.
Came to a house and a bloke shouted "dont bother I clean this one" I got talking to him (nice guy) he was worried i might be out undercutting him, The house in question was a £12 minimum, he was charging £6.
I laughed and said dont worry mate i think your your jobs are safe. Each to their own though, he seemed happy enough.
-
Perhaps the windy has had the job for years and years and has never put up his price? Hence the 1970's or is it 1980's price?
-
£15 here
-
£15 4 weekly
£20 8 weekly
