shopping is best bit :)
Slimmer of week basket, raffle tickets, certificate and sticker boxes, notepads for at pay and weigh, plenty of pens, calculator, 2 cash boxes, tablecloths (single flat sheets), storage boxes, extension cable, blutac, dayglos stars, A5 wallets for food diaries, clipboards, marker pens, empty muller corner pots to display books on interest table. Bits for interest table/new member area - empty frylight, spices, quark, hifi boxes etc, small tubs to have some weighed out cereal in, bottle/measure to show milk allowances, measuring spoons, little scales, body magic props - I have table tennis bats, skipping rope, swim goggles from pound shop
Keep your yoghurt pot lids (any) and laminate them and put on keyring with syn values on for interest table. I have also done this with fronts of boxes for hifis and cereal bars as my boxes were soon getting squashed, nice easy way to look through and compare and can easily add to them.
Just keep looking at what everyone else has in their groups, take photos on your phone for ideas. Try and visit as many different groups as you can, everyone does different things so can learn from everyone.
good luck! x
 
Also need tubs for raffle money and change charity jar.
tea,coffee,hot choc,sweetener, cordial, possibly disposable cups and spoons x
 
Annie, they will help you with editorial, just try have an idea of what angle you want to go for with it and try and come up with a headline x
 
I spoke to my TD today and she confirmed the increase in franchise fee is not coming in till Oct. So any groups opening in September will have reduced fee. Really pleased as that saves me £500!

How have you got on today MrsD44? xx
 
Sarah, just at my full time job today! Will be starting going through things tomorrow :) also got a call with my TD tomorrow night to discuss my group!
Soooo excited!

I did look at prices a few weeks ago but my friend told me SW book our rooms, so haven't done anything. I am not sure if I am definitely going on that training now though. My TD text me yesterday and asked me to go first weekend in August as I needed to go on a different course as my group is a relaunch. I can't make the weekend before as away, so I am hoping they can stick to original date. Is your group new or a relaunch? Will let you know when they advise xx
 
I think you can book rooms yourself but Sw can also do it on your behalf??
Aw Hun that's a shame! Mines a new group...fingers crossed your training stays the same :) xx
 
Hi all, ask head office to book your rooms because they get a big discount My room was £131 for two night and if head office do it is £91!! i Am going on training on the 4th and 5th of July anyone else doing the same days? xx
