They are on ebay today - a number of sellers at around £26 + del

type in   Home-Tek Hunter

Home-Tek are base around Huddersfield I think but sellers around the country.

I have one and they are good - stairs, suites etc

I was thinking of buying in bulk so I could sell on or use for prize draws. Where did you get yours for £20?

Mike the prize draw sound like a very good idea for keeping in touch.
Got me thinking.

Free carpet clean is cheaper, but gets less response.

Do a deal with a carpet retailer/dry cleaners and leave a suggestion box. Entrants fill in their details and house details. ;)

Open it up every two months or so.

Got it off a Joe Polish tape.

Yes it's a prize draw. The idea is borrowed from JP were you offer a prize and to enter, custys of the shop need to fill in an entry form.

Someone wins a free carpet clean or whatever you put up and you get names. addresses and any info you want that they would think relevant.

Don't get too excited. It's a bit of bother and the ROI is OK but maybe I need to refine it.

Your biggest barrier is why would someone have it in their shop, so share the names.

Everybody wins, because the losers get a 15% off cc voucher. ;D

To be honest I've been more succesful with giving a free clean prize to my local charities. Always get add on work off the winner without asking, committee members use me and I feel good about it.
