    I deliver my own leaflets promoting my own business fairly regularly.
    I reckon to do on average 125 per hour.
    So that will take you roughly 54 hours for 118 pounds, forget that.
    I do no more than 2-3 hours at a stint and that's enough for me.

    well i did 3 solid hours on friday but that was only about 500 leaflets, i had baby in pushchair so it took time putting brakes on etc lol
    we then did some on saturday there was 5 of us but 2 of them were kids the did most of them. about 700 this time...i still have a box left and maybe another 300 loose however they are going to have to go back as we have all come down with coughs and colds...havent had a chance to do them :( i have one street i have to do as they are for a political party and a party memeber lives there lol.
    I feel bad not having completed it but i have told OH that if i ever think that is a good idea again to take me out back and shoot me...think i will stick with my avon business :)

    I think you should name the political party...it should have been quite obvious to them that they were planning to pay half the minimum wage.
